OKC 2/17 from 3 while getting blocked each time they get to the rim. Dallas D stepping up in the playoffs.

How about that for a stat. The Dallas Mavericks big men have 12 blocked shots with 0 fouls..

That has to be ANBA record for blockshots without committing a foul

SGA is just smooth on offense. He makes it look easy.

On March 23, 2001, Keon Clark singlehandedly blocked 12 shots without committing a foul.

His teammates committed fouls, though

Well, that turnover's on Mark Cuban and their FO for still employing Tim Hardaway Jr. after all these years lol.

SGA midrange maestro then Dort and Chet with clutch threes + that baseline dunk by J-Dub. I vote TEAM for VC if they pull this off.

The best part about him is he doesn't need multiple dribbles or a lot of seconds to get his **** going..

Far quicker decisions than Tatum and Luka in that regard..

Not everyone can do the mid-range well but if you have that it is a great weapon

So going by this board’s standards I’m guessing Daigneault is a “clueless’” coach to letting his players go ISO late in the 4th ?

Mavs blowing game 4 because they go 12/22 from the free throw line. Pain.

Series isn't over, feels like it's going 7. But a 2-2 series tilts decidedly towards the home court team.

Every series is at 2-2 except for BOS-CLE. Finish in 5, Cs. Still pissed we haven't won the 2024 NBA title yet.
