No Stack and Harris AND no KG. Should still be a close game. I say it comes down to the wire. I think there is just as good of a chance that Posey starts although it could be Scal too. Doc might want to have Posey's scoring coming off the bench. Consider Scal as 6 fouls to use against Dirk nothing else.

I think the key for this game is Rondo. He'll have to attack Terry/Barea as he has the ability to easily blow by either of them. Once he's in the paint, he can get Nowitzki in foul trouble or kick it out to Allen/Pierce for open shots. We also need to play like we did against Miami...good defense and most fast break opportunities rather then half court offense.

dang it KG! i was hoping he'd be ready for this game. these are they types of games where we're supposed to be measuring up or w/e.
i hope KG's injury isnt as serious as its starting to get with him missing 3 games in a row. he hasnt missed games like this his whole career except the last two in minny when they were tankin at the end of the season.
w/o KG and w/ray bein sick and maybe not much of a factor, i would be extremely surprised if we won this one. heck, i was surprised we wona gainst the heat.
