    Batum made Dirk miss 4 shots in a row. What lock down D. And he didn't need a double. That's stupendous!

    I still don't get why we went for a 3 for our last shot, when we had a 2 point lead. And why have Blake shoot it? Did Nate draw that play up? If so, it's mind-boggling.

    My only gripe at Nate is I think Bayless should have played the whole overtime over Blake, but whatever, great win overall.

    When was the last time we won in OT? When was the last time we won twice in Dallas in the regular season?? Amazing. Dre and Batum, with a little help from Bayless. Incredible victory and well-deserved- our guys really hustled. And we really need a win.

    It looked like they were going to let Miller see what he could, but when Blake popped free for a wide open shot he went to him. I don't know if he drew it up to go to him or if Dallas took away our first option. I would rather have had Rudy taking that shot.

    Wow. That was a happy surprise. Big kudos to Nic and Dre.

    2 snarky remarks: A) Was that last shot by Blake the best Nate could come up with, or did the team ignore the play and just rat-ball it? B) Pendergraph played 1/4 the minutes of LMA and had more rebounds. Bloody hell.

    We were 0-3 this year so not since last year have we won a OT game.

    I can see the thinking though.

    Bayless is most effective when he has the ball in his hands. Driving to the rim, or pulling up if his shot is falling.

    With Miller handling the rock, you want a spot up shooter out there. I suppose Nate either thought Blake is a more reliable shooter than Bayless, and Rudy; or that he's a better defender. Or both.
