  1. I don't usually watch Basketball, but i can't help but notice that Wolves fans on the courtside gave up SOOOO EARLY and left empty seats like half way of the game… is this normal?

  2. I said a couple days ago that sga deserved mvp. I couldnt have been more wrong although this dude is a budding superstar jokic is at a level no one in the nba is besides playoff murray. Okc still has alot to learn and mavs are exposing how young and unproven this team is.

  3. Almost died today. A robber came into my house with a loaded gun and aimed at me. Luckily, D'Angelo Russel playoff highlights were playing on the TV. He suddenly started watching and fell asleep. Thank God

  4. Thunder rely too much on SGA iso game and predictable offensive sets. The inconsistent outside shooting, no sensible adjustment from okc coaches and lack of experience were shown evidently against the mavs. Chet and needs to get stronger and better next season if they want to reach the finals or even win the title. Also they need more size, experience players and better coach as well.

  5. Mavericks are a dangerous team. When the role players are making shots they are almost unbeatable. I say almost because game 4 they missed 11 FTs in a 4 point game…. Choked that one but that’s kinda the point.

    Need to close em out at home and get some rest and hope nuggets wolves goes 7.

  6. Mavs!!! Let's get it done next game, please. 💙 gahd my heart in every missed shots!!! 😅

  7. How many ally ops is OKC going to allow per game? Under or Over 30? Bring in Mike Muscala from the bench and maybe he can teach the others how to shoot 3's.

  8. 9:14 Block by Doncic! How often do you see him block a shot? He really showed some nice quick hops on that block but defensive highlights are few and far between for him. He really could be better on defense, he may not have been, in the word of Charles Barkley, 'put on this earth to be a stopper', but if he gave more effort he could be at least adequate. An occasional nice defensive play doesn't make up for the many times he doesn't even try to move his feet or give you that extra effort to make something happen on the defensive end. He's too important a piece to not be such a defensive liability. That's why Harden never gets to the finals, his defensive lapses are just too costly for the team. Doncic might actually give you a little more effort than Harden so he might get conference finals this season but they won't get past Denver unless every player is giving maximum effort on both ends.

  9. OKC just didn’t want the loose balls and rebounds enough. Sad to see. Mavs wanted this game more.

  10. i want OKC to win this series so Jokic can slap his MVP talent on SGA and shut all the critics..

  11. The Mavs are going to close out the series Friday. As good and SGA had been this season the Thunder aren't ready.

  12. What a big! Big!! and Huge!!! WIN!!!! for Dallas Mavericks because this team needs a win on this for home court advantage next game.
