The Difference is a recap of the game that was, with one bullet point for each point in the final margin.
- It’s a whole lot of fun to watch a team win a playoff game, isn’t it? Through the first three games of this series, Houston was the better team. But that title belonged to the Mavericks in Game 4, as the home team had all the energy and fortune on its side. From shots improbably bouncing in to properly run fast breaks, Dallas was simply the sharper team in this game, and it showed up and down the box score.
