I just finished watching the mavs/nuggets. Pretty amazingly clutch shot by Arron Afflalo, but God, it seems like the mavs can never catch a break.

DALLAS -- The Cleveland Cavaliers lost their way into the NBA record book in fitting fashion -- not with a blowout, but with the kind of head-slapping plays typical of a team that can't do anything right.
Like a 7-foot center losing a jump ball to a 6-foot-2 guard. And a decent outside shooter deciding to pass as time expired instead of putting up a potential tying 3-pointer.
quote:
With the Kings trailing 100-98, Evans drove into a crowd and put up an airball and Nowitzki grabbed the rebound. Terry made two free throws with 4 seconds left to put the Mavericks ahead 102-98.
"Coach drew up the play. DeMarcus set a pick, Sam [Dalembert] set a pick, and I just tried to be aggressive," Evans said. "They didn't give us the call so I probably should have pulled up [for a jumper]. It's rare when a ref calls a foul like that at the end of the game."

And no, we didn't beat the Cavs because they screwed up an inbounds pass.
