    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Mike Dunleavy thinks the Spurs are among the best at disguising illegal screens they set in pick-and-roll situations. "They make it look like they're stepping in for an offensive play or something, but really they're trying to hold the rotators from getting to them," Dunleavy said. "I've seen it get called one out of seven, eight times probably." Dunleavy sounded like he was complimenting the Spurs more than criticizing them. "It's something you can learn from," he said. "There are certain teams who do it well and get away with it." </div>

    Interesting strategy by Dunleavy to start this perception about the Spurs. He might be anticipating a possible 4-5 matchup with them in the playoffs and wants any edge he can get in the series.

    I haven't noticed, but when someone says something like this, then you start to actually notice, so I agree he could be trying to get an edge. I'd rather play Dallas than San Antonio though.
