If I’m Dallas, I’d hate to lose this close game on the back of the many possessions that ended with a DJJ blunder

This is pathetic by OKC. Sure it’s working but play defense man.

It’s not aesthetically pleasing to watch Dort and Doncic constantly hunting fouls against each other and selling phantom contact.

They can't guard Luka without manhandling him.
