Unreal how the refs screw the rockets and harden out of free throws.

If only people knew how many times Mavs did the same thing in the past 2 seasons.... Can't get a rebound in the closing seconds...

That right there is why the Mavs, for all their talent, are a likely one and done in the PS

I blame Luka for this loss. Should have played better.

I'm a big fan of fouling with few seconds left, but maybe not when KP and Kleiber are your rebounders...

:noway:
Mavs have been atrocious all season in OT.
Hopefully they see this bubble experience as a whole new season but somehow I have my doubts.

More like most of the (GOOD) playoff teams are defensive teams and they don't play D until the 4th quarter.

Why in the world are you fouling and giving them free points?

Make Harden make a three pointer to tie the game. If he make it, you live with the result and go to OT.

So when the Pelicans and Mavs play do they start shooting at their own baskets to see who is better at blowing leads?
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Please advise….

The level of stress Mavs fans have endured this year already, and it picks right back up where it left off in March.

Not a terrible shot for Luka, closer than most of his threes tonight

This Mavs squad showing their inexperience. They could have closed the game out multiple times.
