Sure I specifically said rebounds, but it was more than just that (I also said A/TO ratio). He had more assists in this game than the LaL game while playing 8 minutes less as well. This game, he led his guys to be fully confident and focused. They probably didn't need that given the first 2 games, but when he's doing it, I'm sure they got the idea that they better as well.

I give it to Carlisle for getting up in their arses, but also making some changes to the rotation and plays.
Things that changed, besides more effort all-around... Burke got more run with first unit. THJ got more run with the 2nd unit. WCS got more run period. Luka stopped with the lazy threes. He´s virtually unstoppable from two. Was already last year. Luka stopped with the complaining. Most importantly the Mavs subtly changed Luka´s passing patterns to be less predictable. All the teams have started to play the diagonal corner passing lanes. So last night, he threw them back to the top a lot more, which resulted in a lot of open looks. It´s not like Luka can´t make any pass he wants.

Easy to be happy when you are up 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 points in a half. :pWell then we just don´t do that anymore.
