Does prove your point awhile back though. One of you made the comment "Well how do you think the SPURS would do with one of their premier starts out." Think THAT question was answered last night.
Then again, a good Dallas team just shot the lights out. 46 3rd quarter points? OH MY GOD!
On a side note...Houston guard Cuttino Mobley, the latest player frustrated by Bruce Bowen's defense, called the forward a "flopper" following the Spurs' victory Tuesday. Dallas coach Don Nelson said the same Thursday.
In a nice way.
"Like a lot of good defenders he initiates the first part of the contact, and then when you retaliate, he flops," Nelson said of Bowen. "It's a really good technique and he's one of the best at it.
"The tendency for the referee is to not call the first one, but the second one. And he's got it down. I call that a positive, not a negative."
Nelson said he's tried to teach Dallas to do the same.
