    Please go through the Art of War and copy & paste you lines and translations for this series.

    Here are mine so far:
    17. According as circumstances are favorable, one should modify one's plans.
    -We now have home court advantage

    18. All warfare is based on deception.
    -Game 2 was a trap for the Suns

    20. Hold out baits to entice the enemy. Feign disorder, and crush him.
    -The Suns took the bait

    24. Attack him where he is unprepared, appear where you are not expected.
    -Nate has gotten all the intel he needs from the first two games, and now is ready to wage war

    II. 19. In war, then, let your great object be victory, not lengthy campaigns.

    - Win two at home. Don't let it go to seven.

    This one's for Nate:

    One defends when his strength is inadaquate, he attacks when it is abundant.

    Fuck the slow-down campaign, ram it down their throats.

    Seriously, I see no reason we can't out-uptempo these guys.
