I thought Florida did a really good job of pre-scouting us. ...You can have systems given to you from God above, but if you don't add work to those systems, you're not going to win. We got severely outworked.

Tuesday's Unheralded Stat(s) of the Game:
- Though Florida controlled just about every possible aspect through sixty minutes, two categories clearly fall into the "win" column for Dallas: hits (36-20) and blocked shots (29-7!). Kinda pointless bringing them up in light of the end result, but it's details such as these which can quickly sink a club on any other night.
