The Mavericks have a can't-fail plan for slowing down San Antonio's potent and powerful Tim Duncan on Saturday.

They won't even try.
Well, they'll try as much as a lineup that features a 3-point-shooting center and four guards will allow.

With the Mavericks' only true centers, Shawn Bradley and Evan Eschmeyer, still on the injured list, the only other option is to play the small-ball brand of basketball the Mavericks have relied on for most of their success this season. And hope for the best.
