Mavs are clearly the better team if they stay focused and play to their potential but they need to keep their head out of their asses and finish this thing off.


Agreed. Looks like Carlisle got them back on track at halftime. Mavs look very focused in this 3Q. Active hands, energy, confidence, locked in on defensive assignments (excepts for leaving Jackson open for 3, maybe that's intentionally tho to keep the ball out of PG & Kawhi's hands).

Looks great! We're 18.5 minutes away from round 2 boys!!!

Refs giving Kawhi an early Christmas present with these 3 free throws. He didn't earn them. Refs gifted them. Ugh!

Ok this THJ is winning me over. He plays with heart, he plays with aggression, and when he's on he is UNCONSCIOUS!!!

When Luka sits this team has real issues on offense.

We need another ballhandler/playmaker. Brunson isn't enough. Need a Ricky Rubio type.

Zach LaVine would be a dream. Bradley Beal. Someone like that & the Mavs are probably title favorites.

Agreed, when Brunson is cold our bench is completely ineffective.

Feels like WCS is playing more than KP at this point. No clue why.

Because WCS has been exceptional on PnR screens and using his feet & mobility to switch and provide help side defense.

Why aren't we doubling Kawhi & getting the ball out of his hands?

How in the hell do you not win a single game on your home court? Absolutely embarrassing.

Yeah, the refs advantaged the CLips, but why do they have to suck so bad in the 4th? Luka hasn't been good 1 time in the 4th in 6 games.

He got 3 easy layup that they gave him and just hit the 3 in garbage time I guess... He was moving worst than in the last game.

KP getting 6 FGA is just weird, can't he get opened? He actually shot well in that small sample size.

The Mavs cannot win unless Luka has shot attempts somewhere in the 30s. He has to be aggressive and will them to victory because the supporting cast is too weak.

He got his teammates a lot of good looks in the 4th. Maxi turned down some open 3s, THJ missed some open 3s, and we just missed some opportunities.

Mavs had so many opportunities to end this thing in games 3 and 6 and obviously don't want this as much as Clips.
No way do Mavs win game 7. It is men against boys and we haven't matured yet.
Kawhi is too experienced in the POs and it is showing.
