Plus, we turn into ESPN for a few minutes at the end.

Boston serves notices that their system and personnel will be a totally different kind of nut for Dallas to crack, as most of their inherent advantages told in Game 1. How can Dallas adjust to stay in the series in Game 2?

The Wolves just had a dream season, but now must pay to keep this group together, and somehow get better. What will it cost ownership money-wise, and what are the restrictions if they do not avoid the dreaded Second Apron?
