Which situation was worse?

Last year going to Oakland tied 1-1?
This year going to Dallas tied 1-1?

With as bad as we've played this series, I'd still take last year's situation as more of a nightmare tbh...

Last year by far. I really thought we had no answers for Curry and Thompson last year and then we actually made adjustments.

That's the only ing stat they need to look at.

You're not going to win any playoff games when you cough up the ball 24 times.

Most of those were not even forced either. Just sloppy bull .

Last year's situation was definitely worse.

I don't know about you guys but I'm more worried this series than the GS series.

The Mavs actually have championship experience and a great coach. The Warriors inexperiene allowed the Spurs to take control. Hopefully the Spurs wake up.

Like putting Green on Curry! That's one of the adjustments we need to make for game 3. Put green on Ellis. Let leonard play the passing lanes. That's when the Spurs' D is at its best imho.

I didn't get to watch much of the game, but the parts I did see the Mavs were scoring at will in the p&r and the Spurs offense was out of sorts.

Definitely agree. The only thing that scares me at all is that Dirk is about as tested as they come.

I just watched the Rockets Blazers game from last night ... the intensity and focus is not comparable to the way the Spurs are playing right now. These teams may not be good defensively, but they play their ass off as good as they can.

It's not surprising. When your gameplan comes apart and your exposed, it can make it hard to compete defensively.

We should be thanking Carslile for preparing us for the Trailblazers and Thunder.
