Game 3 Playoffs 2024: Oklahoma City Thunder (1-1) vs. Dallas Mavericks (1-1)

[SwisherPrice]

OKC taking a risk with the Hack-A-Lively. Even if he misses, it allows the Mavs defense to get set on the other end and that's a big advantage for us. If he just splits the FTs then I'll take it

[donzingis38]

This is the moment where we're missing Kleber

[donzingis38]

Good job, Derek

[The Jom]

Love this for Lively. I know what he’s gonna do all summer, and this never happens again.

[Chicagojk]

Way to step up Lively. Really need him in the game I think. Otherwise it is a drive fest by SGA and offensive boards with our small lineuo

[donzingis38]

SGA doing that stupid touching the head move during a freethrow

[donzingis38]

Thank you Kaiiiiii

[Mavs2021]

How many fucking times is SGA going to get away with this BS.Nobody else gets these bailout calls.

[ThisIStheYear]

Such a bad play there by Luka.

[SwisherPrice]

Kidd trying to save these timeouts for the next game

[donzingis38]

Just one FT, Luka

[Mavs2021]

WTF are they doing. get the ball to Kyrie for gods sake.

[BigDirk41]

Huge win. Glad they pulled it out. The refs suck and Luka needs to get it together.

[Chicagojk]

Huge win. Pj was huge. Lovely was too despite missing some shots he usually makes. green deserves some praise as he made several nice plays on their run. Kyrie settled the team down in the fourth with some big shots. A clearly labored Alina found other ways to help by grabbing 15 boards

[DallasMaverick]

Tough, tough game. 

Didn’t get the friendly whistles I was hoping for, but gutted it out.

Despite shooting only 43%, and being outshot by OKC, they won.

It was defense!!

[Chicagojk]

The new look, tough Mavs. They don’t always make it pretty. After shooting lights out in a tight victory. They turn it over 13 times, shoot 42%, and 33% from three with Luka labored…and still win

[Mavs2021]

We usually play better in the even games. So let´s get game four with a clean performance. This was such a messy game. Big up for Lively making Daigneault eat sh*t by going "Shaq make them when it counts" mode. PJ Washington becoming that guy. If they called this down the middle SGA and Dort would not have seen the final six minutes of that game. JJB would have head flopped SGA out of the game for all his illegal push offs. And Hubie Brown crying about Dort being so disadvantaged physically that he should be allowed to foul Luka all the time sums up everything that is wrong with the NBA. Because Holmgren is a bean and Dort is a midget they can foul our guys all the time. Such crap. Maybe Luka should be allowed to trip and hold Dort all the time, cause it is so unfair that he is faster than Luka. What an idiotic logic the NBA has established.

[Chicagojk]

Just remember…when your team is on the short end of the stick, the other teams fans are saying that is the worst officiated game ever. That is happening now in OKc boards. Our fans do it too, but find a loser of a close game and you can bet the fans will blame the refs

[Chicagojk]

Thunder strategy for next game is to make Kidd think that game 4 is actually game 1 in this series.

[Chicagojk]

Coach of the year has made some puzzling decisions in the last two games.
