I am one of those rare people these days that still loves the NBA. Yes, March Madness is better, but my goodness those pros have skills. And when playoff time rolls around, they have heart too. At least some of them do.
I almost didn't watch the game last night though between the Dallas Mavericks and the Golden State Warriors. It seemed like the Mavs would blow the Warriors away. Isn't a 1 versus 8 series supposed to be a walk in the park?
The Golden State Warriors certainly proved me wrong. Baron Davis lead the way to victory on the road (97 to 85) with 33 points (26 in the second half), but the whole Warriors team deserves a lot of credit for playing with tremendous heart and energy. I can't really say the same about a Mavericks team that just seems to lack focus and direction during much of the game.
