You can have an argument between 3 (THREE!!!) Mavericks as being your clutch players right now. Kidd and Dirk are no-brainers but Haywood continues to show that he is a major factor in the middle.
This is basically his average over the course of the streak: 12 ppg, 12 rebs, and 3 blocks
That's legit for a center.
Kidd had a MAN-sized triple-double tonight. His shot wasn't falling in the middle of the game, but he tore it up in the 4th quarter. The man is playing with extreme hustle right now.
3 guard lineup haters (including me) have to be silent tonight, it worked out pretty damn well tonight. Atlanta doesn't have the offense to take advantage of it on offense and Barea did a good job dribbling through the offense and dishing it out when it was necessary. The zone defense helped as well.
