Mavs' threes Dallas' team success lies in its ability to make shots from the outside

DALLAS — A fan said it best last week after the Dallas Mavericks had stunned Denver by hitting 18 shots from the three-point circle:
The Mavs call what they have been doing lately fun-and-gun.
"They look like a great YMCA team."
In a three-game stretch using three and sometimes four guards in the lineup, the Mavs have beaten Denver and Vancouver and given Phoenix a scare. They've tried 123 shots from 3-point range and connected on 44.
Against Vancouver, the Mavs tried an NBA record of 44 three-point shots.
When Terry Davis and Popeye Jones went down hurt, coach Dick Motta decided he had to try something different.
Mavs' threes stun Denver
"We have no inside help," he said. "We'd be getting beat by these teams by 20 points if we didn't go to the three-pointer."

Watching the Mavs play is liking watch an old ABA run-and-gun team where any shot inside the half court line is a good shot.

"They just come out like gangbusters. There is no easing into the game. They press and shoot threes. Of course, they lose when the three-pointers don't fall."

said. It's great playing like this.
Guard Jim Jackson said, "We're playing good defense, and that helps the offense. Most NBA teams aren't used to seeing a trap or the press. Everybody's feeling comfortable."
He calls George McCloud, the Mavs top three-point shooter, "The Duke."

Dick Motta Dallas Mavericks head coach
SAN JOSE, Calif. — Milt Woodard, a former sportswriter who later became president of the American Football League, has died. He was 84.
"Bring me a big center and we'll quit playing this way," Motta said. "But until I get one we'll keep putting the ball up."

In 1950, he was named executive vice president of the Western Golf Association, and from 1960-66 was the assistant commissioner of the AFL.
evin Johnson said it's difficult to play against Dallas now.
Woodard was a sportswriter in Chicago from 1938-48, covering baseball for the Chicago American and the Chicago Sun.
Woodard died of congestive heart failure Sunday at a nursing care facility, his son, Ross Woodard, said.
In 1966, he became the AFL's president and served until 1970, shortly before the league merged with the National Football League.
Completing the second 10 were Duke, Purdue, Clemson, Florida, Wisconsin, Auburn, Colorado and Kansas.
Woodard is credited with making the decision on Nov. 22, 1963 to cancel AFL games the weekend following the assassination of President Kennedy. The move won praise and was credited with helping create legitimacy for the fledgling league.
Commissioner Pete Rozelle of the NFL decided to let that league's games be played and later acknowledged it was his biggest regret.
"It was an important thing, but I didn't think it would be that important," Woodard told the San Diego Union-Tribune in a 1993 interview.
Oregon State, Notre Dame, North Carolina State, Mississippi and Texas made up the final five, with Mississippi and Texas tied for 24th. There were no newcomers.
Woodard lived in La Jolla, Calif., for several years following his retirement and recently moved to San Jose. He is survived by his son, Ross Woodard, and a grandson.

Clemson rarely wins a women's basketball game because it's the flashiest team on the floor. But the Lady Tigers do win games because they play the best defense.
"She's very aggressive," Davis said. "When she makes up her mind she wants it, she goes after those rebounds pretty good."

Never was that more apparent than at the Atlantic Coast Conference tournament, where Clemson shut down high-powered teams from Virginia and Duke in the final two rounds to win the event for the first time.
Old Dominion climbed one place to sixth and was followed by Texas Tech, Iowa, Penn State and Alabama.
voted MVP. She also had plenty of help. Clemson had four double-figure scorers in two of the games and three in the other.
Or as Davis put it, "We make us better."
That performance vaulted Clemson seven places to 15th in yesterday's Associated Press poll — the biggest jump in a Top 25.
Cottrell got enough rebounds in the ACC tournament — 37 in three games — and intimidated enough opponents inside to be
Iowa, playing without two injured starters, lost to Purdue in the Big Ten semifinals and fell two places. Virginia dropped from eighth
Clemson's victories against Virginia and Duke were among several upsets that triggered a wholesale shuffling in the poll — except at the top. No. 1 Louisiana Tech was the only team that kept the same position.
"Defense always makes it happen for us, it seems," said Clemson coach Jim Davis, whose team held its three ACC opponents to 33 percent shooting. "Our players really believe in defense."
Louisiana Tech (25-1)
Clemson lost its final three regular-season games, so its NCAA tournament chances might have slipped away had it lost in the first round of the ACC tourney. Now, as the tournament champion, the Lady Tigers are in for sure — their eighth appearance in nine years.
Wisconsin and Oregon also were upset victims. Wisconsin lost to unranked Ohio State in the Big Ten quarterfinals and fell two places. Oregon State was swept at UCLA and Southern Cal and tumbled seven places — the sharpest drop in the poll.
"We have a team like a family," guard Stephanie Ridgeway said. "On the court in practice, we go at each other like we're enemies. Off the court, we're the best of friends. That's what makes us a good team."
received 35 of 39 first-place votes from a national media panel to remain an overwhelming choice for No.1 with one poll left. The Lady Techsters had 968 points in the voting — 49 more than No.2 Connecticut.
Connecticut moved into the runner-up spot after last week's No. 2 team, Georgia, was upset by unranked Louisiana State in the quarterfinals of the Southeastern Conference tournament. Georgia dropped to fifth.
No. 3 Stanford and No. 4 Tennessee also moved up one spot. Georgia still received one first-place vote, while Connecticut got two and Stanford one.
Clemson (22-7) wins because of players like forward Laura Cottrell. At 6-feet-1, she's not the tallest player nor the quickest. And she

"We obviously are going to be carrying this feeling over," Davis said. "We know what it feels like to be a champion. Now there's another championship to be won. Who knows? I still believe in miracles."
