Dallas Mavericks vs Oklahoma City Thunder Game 6 Full Highlights 1st QTR | May 18| 2024 NBA Playoffs

Road team has won three of the five games so far in the series and an easy basket for OKC off the tip heads up play by gilis Alexander to get it aead to Jaylen Williams that almost looked like a designed play win the tip tou shet and then have Williams shoot down the line so good start if you’re Oklahoma City donic around the screen and an early it well at the foul line in the series under 70% knocks down those two free throws he battled a number of injuries throughout this postseason to lower extremities also a facial injury suffered early in this [Applause] series Gafford defending gilgas Alexander kick out to Joe shot clock down to two Williams drives and they got to get it up and they don’t it’s a you see Dallas that’s what they’re trying to do they’re trying to force them in to beat them from two so if you’re aggressive at that three-point line a lot of the shots you end up shooting our contested shots Jones puts it on the floor lost it and Homen secures it Jones took a shot to the left eye as he runs back down on defense picking up gilges Alexander now Gafford has him on the switch Joe puts it on the floor into the lane second straight start for Joe trying to take away not just an improved three-point shooter but much better at the foul line in this series better than 90% at the strike and it’s an early three-point lead for the Thunder Gafford down the lane and he missed the L up gets the offensive rebound and the slam like PJ Washington he was a February trade deadline pickup that’s had a big impact on this team acquired from Washington back on February 8th Washington came over from Charlotte on the same day holgren good look and it goes down a three ball for Chad holgren struggled the last four games from three-point range after going two of five in a game one Thunder WI doubled and a steal by Williams Williams gets to the rim and flushes it with Jones in the area and it’s 104 Oklahoma City to [Applause] start y just Alexander hasn’t attempted a shot and the Thunder off to a great start donic goes behind the back and another turnover forced by the Thunder defense Skil just Alexander with plus Wings span that’s a difficult pass for any player basing kid going to keep Washington in the game here despite two fouls in the first two and A2 minutes Williams driving kicks it out Dort will hoist and hit a three five for three he gets both free throws Josh Green checking in for PJ Washington who has those two fouls for [Music] Dallas Thunder trying to force a game seven which would be Monday on the switch he got green trying to defend H doesn’t a nice job shot clock down to four SGA sees it puts it on the floor kicks it out Dort will let it fly and it’s good again L Dort with nine points already and I get it they want to take away Shade that’s been their game plan but leaving strong side shooter that’s an open shot Alexander chest to chest spinning now and his fallowing is good on the Baseline first points of the game for Shay gilis Alexander and the more you watch Shay it is so impressive he knows how to get to his spot he gets there with and just either you foul him or or he into the game and green it’s the mid-range shot Dallas back with in two Josh green and Luca dones the only players left on this roster that were part of the team that went to the Conference Finals two years ago and lost to the Warriors in five games and green barely played in that series Dort no good on the long three it pinballs to Williams on the Baseline giddy with the skip catch and shoot Joe from the corner off the mark Mavericks ball Dallas is hit four in a row looking to Tire Take the Lead Lively to the corner green fakes the pass now fires three no good batted out by Lively and Joe is there for the Thunder pullup jumper from Joe goes down Isaiah Joe’s first point of the game and I would say right now this pace favors the OKC Thunder they’re getting every rebound they’re getting the 50/50 balls and trying to get out early Lively just just too powerful but missed the shot against the smaller giddy but got right to the rim couldn’t finish giddy had 11 points Off the Bench first time in his career he’s come off the bench in game five Jaylen Williams missed the three a CT stretch here for the Thunder after starting the game six for six there just two for their last nine shot clock inside of 10 donic what a pass to the corner green driving what’s going on there perhaps a restroom break he sprinted all the way out to the tunnel to our right so he’s out of the game right now so Mark danal gives Lou Dort a breather Jaden Hardy checking in for the Mavs he played 15 minutes in game five after not playing in the series floater from Wallace No Good rebound Lely Dallas ball down three nearing four minutes to go here in the opening quarter of game six the Mavs leading three games to two lley on the cut and the Finish we did Lively’s first game in a Dallas Maverick’s uniform against the San Antonio Spurs the activity from The Young player has been impressive all year long that really sped up to me the Dallas Mavericks trajectory to start this season Giddy On The Spot up and it’ll go out of bounds Dallas you to keep a center presence in that game well that was in between an alley up and a shot and Hardy was fortunate that ball hit the rim and he got the rebound shot clock down to five here for Irving gives it up Jones penetrates lot of contact Oklahoma City just two for its last 11 from the floor still has the lead though and it extends on a three from gilgas Alexander he’s got five points and I like that he saw a bunch of bodies passes it out and then relocates that’s the open shot from the corner that they’ve got to knock down consistently and it can’t just be it’s got to be his teammates Irving off the bounce too strong in the triple Trot rebound SGA averaging nine boards per game in this series to go with 31 points and seven assists gets in the lane here where he does damage but it spins away and rebounded by Lively Dallas six baskets five turnovers Hardy short on the three long rebound to Hardway at a big game two Off the Bench to help the Mavs win 17 points in that Victory the law to Lively for the flush and I like that from Hardy shoots the three one time gets it back to Kyrie then when Kyrie kicks it to him when you get that ball second you’ve got to make this quick decision by the way a confirmed bathroom break that’s why donic sprinted out towards the locker room he is back on the Mavs bench right now two minutes to go in the quarter shot clock at five 12 footer good gilis Alexander starting to heat up he’s got seven now and the Thunder up four Irving comes to get it from lley doubled finds green swing to the corner Hardway three way off the mark rebound [Applause] Williams just Alexander on the move so Chad hren knocks down the free throws and the lead back to six Thunder at a 10-point lead early on Nearing a minute to go here in the opening quarter Lively going to drive right at hren who strips it and takes it away hren bringing the ball up the floor taking it coast to coast and then passing to the corner Dort rainbow three not there and Lively to [Applause] donic bounce to Hardway puts it on the floor kick out Hardy spinning in the lane into traffic and throws it away good save by Lively shot clock to 10 angle cut off by giddy on the drive from Green timer now at five and Hardy almost turns it over regains control and then just throws it away ugly possession there for Dallas seventh turnover now giddy hits the deck green gets on the floor and and the Mavs win the tip they can hold for the final shot of the quarter donic has taken just two shots from the field but he has eight [Applause] points Dort right in his grill with eight seconds to go they double behind the back donic to Hardy hangs and finishes plus one rest time for Luca Miss free throw 3 seconds left Williams stops near midcourt and drills it Jaylen Williams
