Lil' General Second Guessing Himself? (Erik Scheponik)
Think Avery Johnson regrets laying down for former boss Don Nelson and the Golden St. Warriors last week during the regular season? He could have used that game to work on some lineup things that he tinkered with in Game 1 (Dampier played only 2 minutes!), and perhaps even beat the warriors, hurting their playoff cause. He then could have rested starters the following night in Seattle. Instead, he sat Dampier, Stackhouse, Howard, and Nowitzki, and his team was down by as many as 18 in the 1Q in a total Warriors walk. Dallas is in an absolute dogfight right now with a team they simply can’t find a matchup for. That game could have been used to find that matchup, and perhaps even beat the Warriors, in hopes of facing a weaker Clippers team (a better matchup).
