Thunder: 105
Well, if you had to pick a single game to make a case that the last five minutes are the only thing that matters in an NBA game. Last night was that game. Though I would make tell you that last nights game was worthy of your full attention, you really got a 2 for 1 if you did watch it all. At the start you had the young speed and talent of OKC and the age creep up on the Mavs that everyone has been so worried about. Then in the fourth you could make an argument that it was either veteran leadership of Dallas that won it or the inexperience of the Thunder that lost it. OKC's ADS nearly doubled as we take a look at the game break down.

I know we all love numbers, so thanks once again to Adam's hard work we have a new aspect that ADS allows to to view. We keep preaching that the lower the ADS the better, well obviously that isn't always the case because if Stojakovic is making it rain you don't want to fix whats not broke. But if Durant wants to keep jacking up threes in the fourth after giving up a 15 point lead he may want to think about whats been working for him. Here is a breakdown of Durant, Westbrook and Nowitzki's ADS of made and misses.
