By the way free throws are Mavs 9 OKC 7 and 1 of 7 was a tech for Lula whining.

OKC must get Giddey off the floor.

Giddey will be wearing a different uniform next year

SGA has been incredible so far

SGA has carried them all series.

I don’t think they trade Giddey. He is very young and has future value. My guess is he goes to bench though

SGA has carried them. That’s what I meant about Chet… he has vanished.

Thunder are leaving it all on court. But have squandered 2 10 point leads so far. Not sure they can win. Need more help and JDub has been very quiet this series even turning down too many open 3’s. Which is strange because he was clutch all year.

They have made it further than expected and are getting great playoff experience.

Yes but normally Chet and JDub compliment him. SGA normally defers more in first half to get rest involved. Tonight he’s being more aggressive as he knows its go time. He averages 31 a game and has 18 so far

64-48 at half

Thats the 3rd time OKC built a 10 or more lead. Can they hold it this time?

Last game 10-40 on 3’s
This game 10-24 on 3’s

Thats why they’ve lost. And its why Dallas has won. All things being equal.

Mavs are 5-13 on 3’s tonight

SGA with 21. Then other starters have 9/9/9/8.

Also, OKC is young so no lead is safe. But it appears their shooters are making shots again. That helps defense get set as Mavs have to take ball out vs getting a long board and having numbers.

OKC getting back to their norm on shooting might make all the difference.

Luca hit a 3 for Dallas to take the lead. Then OKC went nuts. I was surprised that Dallas didn't call a Timeout to slow down that run. But, then they showed Kidd on the sideline looking as lost as Dale Brown.

Not sure why Mark D hasn’t called a timeout before now. Let them and crowd get back in it. Bad coaching there. Game is not over.

Mark is blowing this game. Rookie Wallace was horrible yet he never burned a TO. Let Mavs back in. 3rd time to give up a 10+ point lead.

Taking Chet & SGA out at the same time doesn’t seem smart to me.

Which is worse, NBA coaches overvaluing TOs and saving them for the last minute of the game, or NFL coaches undervaluing TOs and using them to save 5 yards when they're 80 yards away from the endzone?

Yes. Both. In BB you have more TO’s so should use them when other team is on runs.

Why did coach have Dort in with 40 secs left and 4 fouls? Now has 5. Bad coaching
