The Warriors played well enough to win in 3 of the 4 quarters tonight, but they were outscored 33-22 in the 3rd quarter and that did them in tonight. Also, the Mavericks went with their big lineup and they outrebounded the Warriors 41-34. The Warriors also lost their composure late in the game as Baron Davis and Stephen Jackson were each ejected. Stephen Jackson led the way for the Warriors with 30 points and 3 rebounds, but he turned the ball over 8 times and that hurt. Monta Ellis had another good game with 20 points and 3 rebounds. Jason Richardson was very active with 14 points, 10 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocked shots. Baron Davis found the going a little tougher than it was in game #1. He wound up with 13 points on 5 of 12 shooting from the floor and he turned the ball over 6 times. The Mavericks got their big three going as Jason Terry, Dirk Nowitzki and Josh Howard scored 73 points between them last night. The series is tied 1-1 as it shifts to the Oracle in Oakland.
