    That’s pretty mature for a young team to keep composure. We have clutch moments this season that showed good signs of maintaining a lead and closing out teams.

    The only question in the playoffs is whether we have another gear we can get into which is hard to believe since we’ve already been *so* good this year. You best bet teams like the Nuggets have another post season gear and it will be the true test on where we really stand in terms of contending.

    That stat is more impressive when you consider how many times we’ve almost given up a 15+ point lead. I don’t have any stats on that but I’d guess in at least ten of those games the lead got trimmed down to less than 5 or like the Mavs and Suns games…. We gave the lead up entirely only to regain it late.
