The atmosphere was electric last night. Nice job Mavs fans. Playoff games take a lot out of me. Boy are they stressful, but fun.
KP needs to be better, period. Although, sometimes seeing how players react to adversity gives you a better glimpse of what you have. I was really interested to see how some of our players would react to playoff basketball. Some of the guys are performing to my expectations. Still some tough games left though.
Playoff basketball series are tough to win, and they get tougher to win the further they go. It can be a wild roller coaster ride. What I saw last night, I personally feel the Mavs are the slight underdog even as they are up 2-1.
Mavs cannot allow Leonard and George to shoot such a good percentage and allow their others guys to hit shots as well. Not sure there is an easy answer though.
This is true for most teams, but especially the Clipps. They are a great front running team. When they are up by 6, the basket can look like the ocean. The Mavs need to really force pressure on the clipps. Not sure this team, outside of Luka, is set to do this by attacking the rim. The Clipps very well may produce in the clutch, but the more pressure you put on them to execute late, the better for the other team imo.
Playoff basketball is so fun. The Clipps took the Mavs big shot early and were the better team the 3 remaining quarters. Lets see if the Mavs can answer the Clipps strong play.
