Speechless

The Warriors had it. 9-point lead, 3 minutes to go. Then they start trying to milk the clock, and stop running their offense, which meant holding the ball at the top of the key the whole possession and then going one-on-one with 6 seconds left on the shot clock. Of course with Dallas digging in and the fans going nuts, all they could muster were two fall-away, contested jumpers - both misses - and a Barnes drive that got batted against the glass. Two Nowitzki 3-pointers later doubt had crept in, and the rest was predictable, like watching the Kings a few years back, or being a Red Sox fan all those years before 2004.

Nonetheless, what a fun, neurotic game. Can't wait till Thursday night.
