Mavs held Toronto to 38.5 FG%, 25% from 3. Meanwhile the Mavs shot 49% from the field and a putrid 27% from 3. Still better than Toronto.
So how in the world was it such a close game? Toronto was 20-25 on FT's. Mavs 19-20. The answer to me? Toronto KILLED the Mavs on the offensive glass tonight.
Toronto had 16 offensive rebounds that led to 21 2nd chance points compared to Dallas' 10. If the Mavs boxed out better this might've been a blowout.
