Nothing makes me happier than when the Mavs beat the Spurs. This past Thursday, I got a heaping helping of my favorite occurance here in Dallas. I don't know if you had the chance to watch this game, but it was an absolute ass beating. The mavs beat the spurs in all facets of this game, and deserved the win, no question about it. But what really made me joyous was the play of point guard Devin Harris. Matched up one on one almost the entire game against Tony Longoria, Devin looked like an all-star in the making. Devin made all the right moves, holding Mr. Longoria to a 1 of 11 shooting night. This is not a usual game for Mr. Hollywood, and the reason is simple. Devin owns Tony. Every time these two have matched up, at least for the past 5 regular season games, Devin Harris reigns supreme. He dominates Tony for one reason: he is just faster and more athletic. Mr. L typically dominates the field of point guards, night in and night out, but unquestionably, he struggles against Harris. This point guard matchup is usually the most important in determining the winner of these epic Mavs Spurs matchups, and right now, Harris is the man, and the reason the Mavs have been dominating these matchups the past year or so. Now if only we can solve the problem that is Baron Davis....
Keep starting Devin, keep JET coming off the bench...its working!
