Like Sike, I too missed this game, so I resorted to looking at the box score for a feel for the game. Other than the ridulous 50+% shooting and 80% free throwing shooting, the stat the jumped out at me was a +12 scoring in the paint.

If that stat is not more indicative of how different this Mavs team is from it's previous iterations, I don't know what is. Even more impressive is that we acheived it against a team with the most dominant player in the paint both offensively and defensively.

This may be the most playoff-geared team the Mavs have had since the late 80's. Looking forward to more of the same this year.
