Hornets' Scott trusts defense vs. Mavs (AP)
Published 4/21/2008 at Yahoo! Sports - NBA News
Byron Scott found himself awake at 5 a.m. last week, wondering if he should make defensive changes to deal with a dynamic Dallas attack that gave the Hornets fits in both teams' regular season finale. "Once I finally got up, I told myself, 'We're going to do what we do. We've been one of the top five teams in the league in the defensive end, so why change?"' Scott recalled on Monday.
