This team has nights where the impressive responses signal an all-new level of potential. Four times in these playoffs, the Dallas Mavericks have lost a playoff game. All four times, they have won the very next games, all on the road, after hearing about their disappointments.

Dallas won Game 5 in Oklahoma City last night by the final of 104-92 and in a game that never was closer than seven points since the early 2nd Quarter.
