The Mavs done NBA Finals last year and are hoping to obtain behind again, specially after gaining 67 games in the regular season. But everything that gained it for the second phases was advantage of home-court, and it now has squandered it. Game 2 is in Dallas on Wednesday night.
The 7-foot tall Nowitzki were supposed for to win games, but it could not take advantage of his size against the Warriors that began formation to offer nobody taller than 6 foot 9. He placed for the outside shots early and was frustrated by double or even triple-teams defends on him, with Nelson knowing better than any person how much individual small, fast they tend to incomodar to that great German player.

Nowitzki was not the unique one who fought. Josh Howard was scored 8 of-21 points and added 13 rebounds. Dallas obtained only four points of the bank, all of center DeSagana Diop. Stackhouse was 0 of 6 attemps with five turnovers.
Devean George and Greg Buckner, acquired the last summer specifically to provide the strong defense of the perimeter in the second phases, made a work early decent. Then nobody could stop Davis in third, when he was made 6 of 8, striking all 3 of his 3 point shots. He wrote down four more points in the quarter than his team did in the second.
The Warriors fought early, who had to hope for a handful of nascent of the second phase. Yet the Mavs, who'd lost only five home games all of this season (one to the Warriors), fought of the beginning too. Their eight shots was missed in in the first quarter and their last 10 in the second quarter.
The best run of Dallas came down in the third quarter, from down four to up four while Nowitzki on the bench.
The Warriors led by four going into the fourth quarter and never gave up the lead. Dallas got within 78-76, but an 11-3 run helped the Warriors pull away.
The difficulties of the Mavs were symbolized by Jason Richardson, that hardly took under Devin Harris from behind without drawing a foul. With Harris on the ground, Matt Barnes made an indicator 3 points in front of the bank of Dallas bench for a 92-81 lead with about 2 minutes left.
Warriors' Barnes added 10 points and Al Harrington had seven points and 10 rebounds.
Mavs' Devan Harris wrote down 19 points, Jason Terry had 17 ponits and George wrote down 10 points.
