I like the Dal matchup. I had the Knicks losing 1-5 vs. Cle but winning 1-5 against Dal and I may up that.
I think we beat them up inside. Josh Howard is great but Marquis, Harris, Terry.. all are below average defenders which means Craw/Nate/Marbury will be operating in the paint. When they do that our bigs get easy buckets, and most teams in the league cant match up with the size and girth we throw out there for 48 minutes.
Curry, AD, Lee followed by Frye and Mo T is a big strong rotation. Dampier's gonna have a LONG night I hope. Especially if our guards are penetrating.
Let Dirk have his 40, stop the other guys, own the glass, attack the paint. Thats the plan baby
I don't mind if Dirk has a big game either. It spells disaster, in terms of guarding him, b/c Frye still gets confused guarding those elusive perimeter players and Davis just can't guard him. However, the guy I am really worried about is Josh Howard. If Q can guard him like he guarded LeBron yesterday then that will be key. Howard takes bad shots still, so if we can get him to take those low percentage shots, then we're in business. Our guards have their hands full on defense though with Terry, Harris and Daniels.
