It's easier to say and criticize than to be in the actual situation though. That might be one of the lapses from the coaching staff.
I'm rooting for Mavericks on that game but not blaming anyone especially the coaching staff. Of course, we as a viewer can think of a good way out of that crucial situation however we aren't pressured compare to those people who are actually on the court. These guys are professional but sometimes there are really times that they can't make a quick decision, not because they didn't think of it but actually they have another thing in mind.
Second thing: It's very clear on the replay that Howard grabbed Curry, a clear offensive foul that wasn't called. What's the use of replay by the way, Los Angeles Cheaters!?
Lakers have nothing to do on that. It was a missed call by the refs. It can't be reversed.
You have to move on and accept that Lakers won that game. As I said, I'm rooting for Dallas on that game but we can't do something to changed the result. Don't worry as there are still lots of games this season and your hope to see Lakers lose always has chances.
Just pray every day that from now on, Lakers should not win in every game.
