Winner of this one will take the series, imho. The good doctor will tell you what this means for Mavs.

Biggest game of Luka's career.

... and everyone else's on the team.

No need to panick, that's the key for the team, as well as the coach. And I think Kidd all the way in this series hasnt panicked at all, which was really great, he didnt make some attempts of desperate solutions without Luka in the lineup.
Mavs have this series under control. It is Utah that is struggling and only prevented 1-3 because of two missed FTs. It is Mavs that is the more talented team, and also Mavs that has played more physical and tough for 3 out of 4 games. I expect a huge game 5 win here at home.

Opportunity for Luka’s first home playoff win and a chance to put the foot back on the Jazz’s throats. Must win game.

Mavs still had a lead with less than 20s to go. Time to bring out the big guns...

My reverse jinx didn't work last time. Utah by 40 tonight.

This very well could be Jalen Brunson’s last home game as a Dallas Maverick. I think it will be. The Jazz captured a significant moment in game 4 that they will ride through game 5 and finish this series in 6 in SLC on Thursday. Jazz in 6. Lots of questions for the offseason with the Dallas Mavericks’ core.

If DAL goes 2-1 without Luka and 0-3 WITH Luka in the playoffs then both Luka and the DAL management will have a LOT of soul searching to do this summer. That would be an utterly EMBARRASSING outcome.

If you're implying in that hypothetical that Luka would be/is somehow the problem then I just don't even know... Luka wasn't the reason we lost last game. He won't be the reason we lose any games. He's Luka fucking Doncic.

Quote:He gets nervous before big games, he admitted recently in an interview with The Dallas Morning News, and the “butterflies in your stomach” idiom translates in Slovenian. Quote:As the Mavericks return to American Airlines Center for what’s now a best-of-3 series this week, those who’ve worked closest to Doncic have a common conclusion: Quote:At halftime of the winner-goes-to-the-Games tournament final, Doncic looked around at teammates and delivered a simple message. Quote:After a preseason practice in October, Mavericks CEO Cynt Marshall and dozens of team employees surprised second-year guard Josh Green with a ceremony to celebrate his contributions to Australia’s first-ever Olympic medal performance.

Lots of questions for the offseason with the Dallas Mavericks’ core. Dallas as a minimum goes to conference finals this season IMO. Utah will be no match in the next 2 or 3 games, Dallas is just more talented team with Luka back. Maybe if Luka was out, Utah could make the adjustments necessary to advance, but not with Luka back. Next series would then be against Pelicans or a Suns team not the same as usual, the latter only opponents able to win against us at full strength. Either are a no-match for Dallas at full-strength. Then it will be a very very very tough series against the GSW. Mavs I think wins this one, but it can go either way, as Luka always has the upper hand against the GSW, I think and hope we will see Dallas in the Finals. But GSW have far better playoff experience and better team overall. In the finals i dont know the east teams as well, but could be Heat, Celtics or Bucks. Not sure Dallas has the experience and the stamina to hold on so far after so many series and games, but with Luka you never know. Jalen Brunson? After these playoffs, Brunson is a lock to stay IMO. We will see much more of Luka and Brunson combo as we did during the regular season. What defines this season is how Brunson and Luka were able to play well together in same units, and how successfull we have been in those lineups. Second thing is how they together have made the defense so great. I think chances are zero that Brunson leaves, unless he doesnt want to play here, but given his huge role and star status now, it is unlikely. In last game he got as many shots of as without Luka. They should fall in better tonight.

Game 4 was more like game 3 of the 2006 finals than it was game 4 in round 1 of 2011. Bad vibes. Dwayne Wade is involved again. It’s over.
