Playoffs 2024 - WCF - G3 - Mavs v Wolves (Sund., 8:30PMEST)

[Dirk]

Mavs have scored 4 more points than the Wolves and are up 2-0.



Wolves have negated the corner 3s, but on the other hand there has been a lob party.

Despite getting incredible games from McDaniels and Reid and having leads... they blew it and then failed to execute end of games. Their stars have looked out of sorts.

The Wolves won three times in Denver the last round... so maybe they may be better/more stable on the road.

Mavs are 6-2 on the road, 4-2 at home
Minn is 5-1 on the road, 3-4 at home

Both teams seem to be better on the road. So this series isn't over.

Regardless of how Minny chooses to defend the Mavs - it's time for the role players (outside of the C's) to establish themselves in this series. I suspect Minny is going to do a lot more trapping this next game. If so, that ball will move to Lively/Jones/ Washington and they will have to make decisions in the middle of the floor. They have to make smart decisions with the ball and knock down their 3s.

And on the defensive end - we cannot spot them an 18pt game. We have to come ready to play. Simple as that.

Boston and Pacers series is officially over after 3-0.

Do you REALLY think the league and the refs are going to fcuk around and let Mavs take a 3-0 series lead as well? HEEEEELL NOOOOOO!

At the end of the day, this league is for entertainment, business and MONEY!

So do not be naive, all Mavs fans!

This game 3 will be a charity game, and Mavs will be absolutely DESTROYED.

NO NEED TO WATCH THIS GAME AT ALL and consider yourself WARNED!!!

[Mavrelous]

Go Mavs!!
As expected, In game 2, Wolves came out swinging, Mavs took the punch and dealt them a knockout, expect a more desperate Wolves team to swing even harder this time, don't rest on the assurance of the home court, Wolves won 3 games on the hardest home court in the league in the previous series

I wonder how would these playoffs went if Luka was 100% healthy just like in 2022 & 2021.

Not much difference IMO, one of the series would maybe go to 5 instead of 6, but that's about it.

Wrong caption. Should be "41Dirk41 still hating on coach Kidd?"

More of a precaution IMO, he had to gonto the locker room in game 2, they want to have an option for the 0.01% chance he can't play.

A triple double is coming on the way then.

Good. Questionable Luka is a monster.

[Marko_MFFL]

Number of triple-double games in this year's Playoffs:
▪ Luka Doncic - 5
▪ The rest of the league combined - 5
4 of those 5 have come in the last 5 games. With two of them, he closed the series against Oklahoma, and with last game's, he gave the Mavs a 2-0 lead in the conference finals. He's back!

Remember how 2006 plays out. Be the best of yourself.

[Darren]

The Mavs has not been shooting well from long range. The Mavs has to stay focused and shoot with rhythm.
