Game 6: Mavs at Clippers

I'm not sure why, but I always tend to look at a Clippers game and think "practice game". I never really take the Clippers seriously. And what's sad for the Clippers is that I believe nobody does take them seriously. They do not have a Kobe. They don't have any kind of a real "big name" player... and that is why. I don't have to look at statistics to tell you the Mavericks are going to rip them a new head. But, I am known for looking at a game and disecting it to the ends of the Earth.

Clippers:
  • Al Thornton: 16.8 PPG; 6.6 RPG
  • Tim Thomas: 14.6 PPG; 7.2 RPG
  • Chris Kaman: 11.8 PPG; 10.6 RPG
  • Baron Davis: 12 PPG; 6 APG

Dallas:

  • Dirk Nowitzki: 23.8 PPG; 6.5 RPG
  • Josh Howard: 18.5 PPG; 7.8 RPG
  • Jason Terry: 17 PPG; 4 APG
  • Jason Kidd: 8.5 PPG; 8.8 APG; 6.5 RPG

On paper, the Mavs do not look as good as the Clippers... but we all know that isn't true when you figure in a reality check. Forecast: Mavs tear up the Clippers with a 118-98 stomping.
