Sorry, one more thing:
In the game thread, I kept reading about how the Spurs were "more athletic" than the Mavs. This may or may not be true, but I promise it wasn't helped by this ridiculous idea of playing uber big at every position. IT'S A RUNNING SPORT. You have to be faster and quicker than your opponent - bigger isn't the only metric that matters. Imagine what an athletic freak Flagg would have appeared to be if he wasn't matched up with Castle to start the game!
