Game 77: Atlanta Hawks (36-39) vs. Dallas Mavericks (37-39)

I watched on replay due to family commitments.

I have to say that AD is a monster basket defender. You can definitely see why he's been a consistent All Star and All Defensive team guy. He also moves like a SF sometimes. I wonder if that contributes to the injuries. Couple of times with the fade away wing jumper I had Dirk flash backs.

I do like that the team is still trying to share the ball and be unselfish with finding open looks. The big-to-big alley oops could prove hard to stop once everyone gets some playing time. This is almost like starting the season then having playoffs after just a couple weeks. If DAL is healthy while the other teams are tired/dinged up/injured, then there could be some fun to be had in the post season.
