BOSTON - The Dallas Mavericks have proven to be a dangerous team when they're facing an 0-1 deficit in a playoff series. They have a lot of practice.

The Mavs' 107-89 loss to the Boston Celtics in Game 1 of the NBA Finals marked the sixth time that Dallas has dropped the opener in seven series under coach Jason Kidd.

Dallas has recovered to win five of the previous six series despite falling behind, including the first two rounds of this postseason against the LA Clippers and Oklahoma City Thunder.
