Nah it's over. Suns haven't had it all night. Credit to Mavs making good changes but also suns just had a lot of unforced errors and missed gimmes.

Just one of those games. Suns only need to get one in Dallas. On to game 4

Chances of it happening are low but would love it if Mavs can comeback and win the series

That 3 hurts, the Mavs need that cushion after the 4th quarter in G2.

15 points is a good cushion, Mavs should be able to take this one, but you never know

Unlike Jae Crowder Danny Green is a legit shooter. Danny Green for his career shoots 40% from 3 and Jae Crowder has shot above 35% from 3 twice in his career and has never shot 40% from 3. Crowder is more of chucker than a shooter.

It's crazy how many times Luka gets bumped when he drives to the rim, yet he can't defend Crowder even with the softest touch.

Love your silence on one of the worst calls in nba history earlier


I did comment. I said that i have no clue what's going on but i love that Mavs are finally showing some fight.

Luka and Brunson are getting bodied entire game, Mavs FTA 9, Suns 11 FTA. So can't really complain that it's rigged or anything like that.

nice try. Y’all don’t have the defense to apply the “doncic rules” on us. I’m sorry to be the bearer of bad news but the Suns are the only reason the Suns are losing this game.

cp3 has injury concerns this series is far from over. the best player is luka in this series closer to 50%.

Nice, commented in the 1st Quarter that the Mavs needed a 15 pt lead entering the 4th to secure this.

Well? Blouses.

Yeah, Mavs finally playing some defense has nothing to do with that. Ok. I wonder how many topics will be after the game about poor defense from CP3 and Booker.. Let me guess, zero?

Yeah, no. It's still 80/20 at best. 70/30 if Dallas catches G4.
