I am also on this play tonight..
I Cashed with the Mavs for the game, and 2nd half on Saturday..
I can't see this game being any different from the 1st, if anything I like the Mavs chances of winning SU more now than on Saturday when the Thunder escaped with a lucky bounce shot at the end..
The Mavs give the Thunder trouble and they know that, we have learned from all there season meetings and the last game these are always close affairs ussually coming down to the last couple of shots...
I cannot see either team beating the other by more than 7 at anytime..

The Public is not always wrong...
I like to fade Public as well, but the Mav's just give the Thunder problems thats why the Mav's were happy to take the 7th seed this year to avoid the Lakers in the 1st who have owned them this year...
I have no problem taking the Defending Champs and the Points in this one...

uh oh...i do trust this man's opinion
Another close game against OKC that Dallas could have won at the end. Out of 5 meetings so far this year Dallas won 1 and lost 3 others by a 2, 4, and 1 points. Only one was by more than today’s spread, a 9 point OKC win @ Dallas. That game was Nowitzki’s 3rdgame back after a 4-game absence where he dealt with a knee-injury and worked on his conditioning. After coming back he totaled 10, 10, and 8 points (this was the OKC game) going 11 for 39 (28%). combined from the field. Clearly, Dirk wasn’t himself yet. Plus Dallas were without Kidd and Haywood in that one. My point here is that pretty much all the meetings between these two teams were very close this season. The first game of this series was no different as Dallas had a lead late and Thunder had to muster up a comeback to get a chance to win it with a last second Durant jumper. I’ve mentioned in my series breakdown that OKC went 0-7 against ‘playoff’ teams to close out the season and they barely beat Dallas at home in game 1. I don’t see any reason to expect a Thunder blowout in this one. Expect the World Champs to make small adjustments and once again keep the game close to the end.
