The Wolves have lost three straight close games. It feels like the Mavs have looked more dominant than the scoreboard suggests. Can't expect them to lay down and give up.

Fortunately, Dwight Powell has been rested to be deployed here.

Like how the team chemistry develops and Kidd's coaching as the playoffs going deeper.

No more reverse jinx in WCF. I am saving my energy and power to later if you know what I mean. :wink:

Mavs please don't choke and do everything to bring the broom tomorrow.

The Wolves love KG, right? Ok please be like KG who got swept by Mavs as well.

Mavs win this tomorrow. Fcuk it!

Reading this makes me feel that the Wolves will win by 15+ points, in all honesty. :roll:

Since the 2005-06 seasons average time lost do to a neck sprain is 4.0 days. But that’s a small sample size so not particularly precise.

Hopefully they hit the ground running in the 1st quarter. The playoff rotation is pretty spotty with Lively out. I'm not expecting anything out of Maxi.

Maxi usually takes a few games if not weeks to be in his old form after coming back from injuries

Let's make this 15-0 in closeout games for Kyrie. It's do or die, can't let this series drag out longer than it has to.

AAC will be on fire. Let's bring this home and not do another sizeable roadtrip to the worst state in the US.

Even that is a significant upgrade over the other 2 bench big options.

Superstar Kyle Anderson has been unstoppable so far. If they can limit his scoring, Mavs will have a good chance.

Kleber battling back is great. The PJ Washington/Kleber front court minutes are easily survivable.

One win away! I would love to see the Mavericks put the Wolves away tonight. Luka and Lively need a few days off to heal.

This post alone will guarantee Kidd to use Powell for 20+ mins tonight, which will lead to a you-know-what result. :lol:

Can Kyrie go 15-0 in closeout games?
