    Avery Johnson loves the give and take of the NBA playoffs, the adjustments between games and the subtle changes that can swing a series.

    But the Mavericks coach also is a huge fan of perfection. And while his team did a great job taking the Phoenix Suns out of their game plan in Game 4 of their best-of-7 series Sunday, it didn't do it perfectly.

    Otherwise, Steve Nash wouldn't have scored 48 points.

    So it is in Game 5 that those who are given the responsibility of covering Nash one on one will have to do a much better job. </div>

    I love that about Avery. His constant striving for perfection from his team will only make them better. Like in the Houston series, Dallas needs to improve with each game. They need to keep building. I don't quite see either team doing that in this series so far, but Game 5 could be their chance to do so. I just hope it will be the Mavs not the Suns who do it.
