Are you kidding? LA has owned Dallas for about the last ten years. They routinely beat Dallas in Dallas, including this season.
And a deep team? Please. With Butler hurt they have one guy off the bench who can score (Terry). Peja can hit a three or two a game, which is usually the sum total of his contribution.
I'm not a big fan of Dirk. Great player, but hardly a tough player. Has disappeared in big games. Can't play defense.
Yet they're down 2-0 on their on home floor on the biggest stage, the playoffs. Nowitzki is owning Pau. Beach...you don't think Dallas is a deep team? The one player who has had the biggest impact is Tyson Chandler. With him, Dallas can play defense. He makes a huge difference in the game. What happened to New Orleans when he left? They went from being one of the top teams in the western conference to a team lucky to make the playoffs after they made the Okafor trade.
In my opinion, Barea, Haywood, Terry, and Peja get the job done when its their turn to produce.
I'm curious to see how the Lakers play on the road in Dallas.
