Will we see a 3-0 after game 3?

It's hard to answer that question because the Mavericks would not allow that.
However, Warriors are just a good team, it's hard to beat them, so Luka does need more help from his teammates especially on the defensive side.

Once again, Dinwiddie was inconsistent, on game 2, he only scored 4 and made 4 turnovers, he need to score like 20+ so Mavs will have a better chance to win.

The problem of Mavs on GSW is they have consistent shooters which can give them a problem in any quarter almost all of them can able to step up even if their main guys struggle. And also their defensive anchors are gaining much confidence for the result of their campaign. So this is really a huge problem with Mavs, they should take a huge adjustment and create more good executions so that they can limit the shooters of GSW to contribute very well.

They just could not limit the shooter of the Warriors because they are moving the ball very well.
How can they limit shooters when even Wiggins is shooting well in the 3-point line.

Also, we have to notice what Looney has been doing so far for the Warriors, again, he had a great game having a double-double with 21 points and 12 rebounds, and 5 of that total rebounds are offensive rebounds.

Dallas Mavericks is now trouble. They gave up a 19-point lead in a Conference Finals, it's alarming.

Still not an automatic win for the Warriors but the Mavericks should bounce back as much as they could next game. Game 3 is important. If they still lose it and are able to win at Game 4, it will be hard for them to return to Chase Arena with a 1-3 disadvantage. They need to even the series at all costs.

The same offensive power should be shown again by Luka's teammate or much better if more than that.

Yes, they have a chance to even the series but they gave up a huge lead. That only tells that Dallas does not have a good defense, they rely so much on their shooting but it's just that Warriors are also good so they can come back in the game, and they always win in game 2. As of now, Warriors are still undefeated at home in the playoffs, they are the only team left that is undefeated.

As what the commentators said about the Warriors, there's no such safe big lead against them because they are a team that could come back with their great offense and defense. Mavericks were able to score, they have a good shooting night but their lack of defense made them suffer in the 2nd half.

They need to win game 3 now, they are at home so no more excuses for them.
Good luck to them because if they'll allow a 3-0 lead, then most likely the series will be over in 4 or 5.

That's right, maybe we should realize now that the Warriors aren't the Suns. Warriors have the championship DNA in their blood, so they will never give up even down big time. Curry and company will make sure they'll advance in the NBA Finals again, they missed many seasons due to injury problems, and now that they are here, they will seize the moment.

Will we see a 3-0 after game 3?

TBH, it's hard to know if we will see a 3-0 on their next game but if that happens then we will know what's next already.
On the other hand, I don't see that this will end up in a 0-3. The Mavericks played really well against the top-seeded Suns on their home, so I expect the same against the Warriors and I don't think that the Mavericks will just let them go 0-3.

Even though I'm betting for the Warriors to win in this series, I still expect that this will end in at least 6 games or 7 maybe. It's time for the Warriors to regain the championship after years of tanking, getting some good draft picks and getting some good role players as well.

Correct. 2-1 is necessary to bring back their momentum and intensity. I can imagine their feeling right now where they almost have the chance but in the end, they still end up losing by 9 points. They surely regret it and think about why it happened. Mavericks should not blame themselves as it just means the Warriors did their best.

I've bet on them on that +6.5 handicap. Even if they lose the game, I should be fine now if only they covered that spread. I was already clapping at the half thinking I will win my bet:-\

What do you guys thought on Miami Heat without Kyle Lowry again and PJ Tucker? Both are questionable leading to their game 3 series at the homecourt of Boston Celtics. Currently Miami Heat is at +6.5 but is this enough? Who will guard Jason Tatum? I think PJ Tucker is so important in this current Heat line up. The old man is has the experience and can play defense. Maybe they will use Dedmon and Adebayo at pf?

They are losing because of the tall line-up. I think they will go small now, but without PJ Tucker that would be difficult to maintain.
Speed is what they need so I guess they will come up with another solution using their bench. Strus, Vincent, and Caleb Martin. These three guys will definitely gain more minutes in the next game but I doubt about Duncan Robinson because he can be used as their weak point in the defensive end.
+6.5 may not be enough and it's the homecourt of the Boston Celtics this time.

It's still questionable so it wasn't yet confirmed if both of them are still out, if the Heat really need their presence and they can play without pushing it too far, then, I guess they still have the chance. I think Markieff Morris is an option as well but I guess Dedmon or Adebayo can do the frontcourt with the absence of Tucker's Hell defense.

How about that Warriors comeback? Dallas had a great start but couldn't hold on. I think Golden State showed that they're in control of this series. With possibly only 2 more games to go for them, it looks like they might have a Finals win in store for them this season.

It's was on hell of game, but I knew with how terrific can the Warriors can be when they're making great shots, despite the huge numbers of turnovers, they still had several large runs to stay in the game, It's going to be a really different series in Dallas, but I think the Warriors can get at least one win on the road.

Many thought that GSW will lose today since imagine the lead got by Mavs and amazingly GSW burst then eat the lead to take over this game. Its really great to see how their rooster execute their game plan because seeing them how they rotate the ball and unselfish decision making towards trusting each other what make them a winner. Its really different scenario when they go on Dallas home court because for sure this time Mavs will be hype up and do all to not get sweep on this series.

3rd quarter Warriors are back! Down 17 at the start of the 3rd quarter and somehow they brought it down to just 2 by the end of 3rd. Mavs changed the way they played the first half, expecting Warriors to have found the answers but have gotten it very wrong. They are trying to go through Looney and that's not working at all. 4th quarter up next. Can Mavs take a game off of Warriors at the Chase center?

Looks like many forgot that the Warriors are deadly when the 2nd half comes, especially the 3rd quarter, and they did it again.
Curry, Poole and Wiggins performance aren't a shocker because we've seen it multiple times already. The shocker in this game is Looney which scored 21 points and 12 rebounds. Let's not also forget that there was a game against Memphis where he got 22 rebounds. If he plays like this all throughout the playoffs, reach the NBA Finals and won the championship, I think I will pick him as the MVP Cheesy

.

On the other side, Luka is still unstoppable as usual and Brunson helped him offensively, which is good. It's just that the Warriors are better offensively Cheesy

. Just additional information. The Warriors are 14-1 when they are leading 2-0 and what is that "1" out there? That is when they lost against the Cavaliers in NBA Finals Cheesy

I think Boston showed last game that if Marcus Smart is in the lineup to anchor the defense, Miami is in trouble. Kyle Lowry might make a difference, but I doubt it. He's not exactly in his prime. I'm expecting Marcus Smart and Al Horford to be feeling even better now that they've had more time to heal.

As I was expecting, that live by the three die by the three approach to the game backfired in the third quarter. Nobody is attacking other than Luka. Mavs is even lucky that Curry is misfiring but he's done well distributing the ball. To think that they managed to close the gap to just two points while Draymond is sitting the rest of the third quarter with three points.

Luka and Brunson got it going but it surely wasnt enough to match the star power of Curry, Thompson, Green and Looney stepping up for both games. While the bench playing crucial role as well, with Otto Porter and Wiggins and Poole all getting double digit scores at times where Curry was rested and offense was lacking.

Warriors have a lot of offensive weapons that it's really hard to match them, if Steph is sitting, Poole or Klay will step up. And then we have Looney who is the recipient of a good pass and score huge in this game, and so is Otto Porter who is clutch. And then Klay finishing them off. It's going to be very difficult for the Mavs because Warriors are very deep and they play good defense too.

And Draymond fouling it with more than 2 minutes, useless foul but I guess he knows his team are going to win anyway.

Just a collapse for the Dallas, it was only Luka who are scoring, maybe except for Brunson but it was not enough as the Warriors won the game and taking a 2-0 advantage. It just shows that Warriors are a 3rd quarter team, we've seen them do this in the regular games and won. The experience is too much for the Mavs to handle. Luka is doing everything but it was not enough.

I really thought that was it, time for the Mavericks to win the game. Their first half was better and it's going at their own pace while the Warriors are just hanging there. But that second half made a huge difference. I admire the Warriors bench for doing such a good job. They didn't just prevent the Mavs to score while their starters are resting, they stepped it up one more notch and gave them the lead.
You can see how an experienced team work it out when they are down. The defense was pure and in a higher level.

That's why it's so demanding of teams to play against the Warriors in the playoffs, and today it they had their crazy comeback run with Curry and Green on the bench, the bench team really provided great minutes without their starters and that's what helped Warrior win this game, Looney, Porter and Poole were just also very great tonight, it was really a great to watch from the tip-off to the end of the game.
