    Key Matchup

    Dirk Nowitzki vs. Carlos Boozer

    Dirk Nowitzki is having a great season, and he has a big advantage over Carlos Boozer in speed and height. Boozer will have a hard time stopping Dirk on defense. Carlos will have to do his best on the boards, and stay with Dirk.
    On offense, Boozer has a strength advantage, and should look to go down to the low post and draw fouls on Dirk to get him out of the game.

    Prediction

    Mavs by 15.

    Yeah, that's the worst thing about going to a game and seeing your team lose. I'm taking Jazz though by 5 I just feel they're going to do well and they will not dissapoint you Marbire. [​IMG]
