    That unorthodox line-up played a stint last night as was really good. Wes and Batum shared the shadowing of Kidd, while Roy was on Matrix. When I first saw it, I said to myself "Great Matrix is gonna eat Roy alive", but having Batum and Wes shadow Kidd didn't allow it to happen.

    Now this doesn't mean have this line-up for long stints, I just thought it was interesting that it was actually effective. Dallas had a seriously hard time scoring against this line-up.

    I was shit scared too. Hell Marion even makes quick defensive players look old. But it worked last night. Maybe it may never work again.

    Didn't seem long at all. Maybe a couple minutes?
