Some individual player notes that made the pod and some that didn't about the OKC series.
PJ Washington Jr. series:
17.7 PPG, 8.3 RPG. 47.6% FG, team best 23 made 3s on 47%. 3 games 20+ pts, 3 double-doubles, game winning FTs in Game 6 closeout.
Derrick Jones Jr. series:
12.8 PPG, 37% on 3s, 1.3 BPG. 19 pts in G5 and 22 pts in G6 going 15/22 FG & 7/11 on 3s.
Dereck Lively II series:
+71 in the 6 games. The best +/- of any Mavs player ever in a playoff series (Luka +69 vs LAC in R1 was the previous best).
Kyrie - 42.3% on 3s despite OKC aggressive defense against him. Played 242 out of possible 288 minutes in series.
Luka - 24.7 ppg, 10.5 rpg, 8.7 apg...3 straight triple-doubles to end the series...Jokic and Wilt have NBA record for consecutive playoff games with a triple-double at 4. He played 249 of possible 288 minutes in the series.
