Mavs should be up ten. They haven't looked this out of sorts all playoffs. Some of it is the Celtics defense, but the majority has to be them still being shook.

Something small and petty like that can end up being the difference in the series

Luka playing well but his flopping is also killing his team. Stuff that won’t show up in the stat sheet.

They gave it to Brown.
I would be curious to see the replay if one of them wasn’t a foul.

He’s not taking it seriously. Time and a place to have fun but this is all business. Kobe would never do that

Two poor shots by Luka get no points BOS cuts it to 1. Stuff like this adds up over a game

THJ was their 3rd leading scorer, kind of crazy he can't get any burn no matter how horrible he is defensively.

Luka falls down, cries, leads to a Hassuer 3.
At some point you gotta stop crying to the refs and play on

Luka gotta stop whining and falling down trying to foul bait. Refs ain’t gonna call it. He’s cost about 5 points there with that BS.

Tatum is just playing a better team game to win. Luka terrible defense and shot selection won’t help them win this series. Mavs should be blowing out the celtics down Zinger,

As usual those **** refs been payed off. Cant give that 3pt foul to tatum and ignore 2 more obvious ones on luka. Those refs will have their plane crash on the way home. Dishonest people deserves to die

Worst part is that he's not even fully healthy. Kleber is not good enough to be playing through injuries. Dude isn't even that good when completely healthy lol

It’s a bad habit. Play the game, don’t whine during a live ball scenario.

Luka takes two step back 3s (the first one was fine, the second one was forced), then falls on both trying to bait a foul, then doesn’t get back on defense and the Celtics score 5 points on those plays. Go from being up 6 trying to extend the lead to up 1 with the Celtics having all the momentum.
But Luka just has to do EVERYTHING! We’re asking WAY too much of him to expect him to not take bad shots and to get back on defense instead of flop and/or whine to the officials.
lol.

No but it is clear that they are less deep than Boston. I don't think Kleiber should have even played in the Minnesota series and only had the opportunity because Minnesota lost their confidence.
So the five starters, Exum, Green and Lively? That's your eight?
Yes. Stamina be forsaken.
The Greatest of All Time debate in basketball is essentially who has the greatest basketball resume of the player who has the best highlights instead of who is the best player
