At Last, Nash And Nowitzki, Together Again

While trying to find video of a time when Mavericks coach Avery Johnson's voice was deep — we imagine it just one day rising, like reverse puberty — we came across this apparent promotional video for the Mavs. "The Avery Bunch" are heading to the Western Conference Finals, where they will face the Phoenix Suns, who hammered the Clippers last night/this morning by 20. The series starts tomorrow night. If the Mavericks hadn't learned how to play defense, this would have been the 145-140 every night series we would have thought of a few years ago.

And we're guessing Mark Cuban finally got to sleep ... oh ... about a half hour ago.
