Mavericks downed by 1 with 3 seconds left on the clock.
"Finney Smith to inbound"
"Back to Donkic"
"Donkic pulls-up a 3 pointer!"
"BANG!!"
Intense especially if you have a bet. Thanks for the @4.2 Moneyline odds after losing my bet on Game 1.
What a great effort by the whole team especially Luka. Bouncing back after scoring 35 points in the third quarter. Their backup and role-players also show good performance. They are playing with lots of challenges in this playoffs already including dealing with their key player's injury. Hoping Porzingis will have a good rest after not playing. Winning or losing the series, Mavericks now creates a buzz in the NBA community.
Clippers is a monster team and expected to advance the series. They will surely bounce back the next game. I'm wondering what's the problem with Paul George. He is missing in action.

I know that everyone thinks Clippers and Mavs series is closer than it looks, but I feel like there is a chance Clippers are doing pretty well considering PG13 hasn't played well at all. If the time comes and PG13 plays like himself again and defends Luka well and scores like he scores, I would assume that they would destroy the Mavs.
So, right now the teams could be looking closer but I feel like with more games the difference will move further away as well, and since there is really no home or away games, teams all play at the same place, I feel like clippers will continue to beat Mavs easier and easier until series is over, I do not see Mavs picking up one more game. Hopefully though Mavs will improve to be an awesome team in the future because they do have that potential.

I think we should not put that pressure on PG13 since he's doing his best, we all know that. I just saw this video where PG13 is labeled as the unluckiest player in the decade since most of the players he defended did the game-winner. And yeah, Mavericks won. If Clippers losses these series and Luka did the game winner against PG13, this is a considerable reason to say that it is really his curse.
Can Joel Embiid still tell the fans that they don't need Simmons?
NBA playoffs: The Philadelphia 76ers' process ended with another disappointing result
It's very disappointing, they don't give a damn fight and this full of talent roster has been swept by the Celtics.
I think they need a rebuilding again.

End of 3rd quarter, Mavericks lead 93-85 against Clippers, with yet another great game by Doncic, and despite being without Porzingis tonight due sore right knee. To be honest, after 1st quarter I thought it will be an easy win by Clippers, but Mavericks are tougher than they look. Exciting last quarter ahead!
Game went to OT, I bet on the Mavericks live to win, I got 2.30 odds.. hopefully this effort of Doncic will give them a win.
Paul George is still struggling, Mavericks has to win to even the series. Fun game!
edit : winner. Thank you Luka
Congratulations mirakal good for you.

I just hope for him to be well already. He's a great piece on his team, obviously. And one more thing (that is for certain here...), they got a chance to win the series against Clippers.
So great, he is the leading scorer of the team and for me, he's one of the best players in his generation. I also believe that they can win the series against Clippers as long as Monterzl Harell stop flopping
Jokes aside, I hope he could play again game 4.
KP is taking care of the inside game, I like this guy, very versatile, can shoot inside and outside and that is how big man should play in the current generation of basketball. Monterzl Harell looks not 100% yet, so KP should take advantage to that.
Luka is one of the best in the NBA, he might win an MVP if not this season, probably in the season to come, but it's too early to say they'll succeed, though I like the Mavs to win in the series but we could not take the reality that Leonard activates during playoffs.

"We're unsure of the exact severity of Luka's ankle. One of the good things is, it's the good ankle, not the one that he's sprained a few times in the lat couple of years," Carlisle said.

My bad, sorry but thanks for not making me worry about the Dallas Mavericks, I thought that injury of Luka was really serious.
I just rush on checking using google and I found that new, I thought it was the latest, but it's all good, Mavericks now would be able to compete with the Clippers.

Even if the Mavericks lose this playoffs game it will be a great experience for young Luka.
But it will be sweeter if they win the 1st round also taking out one of the strongest team in the West.
That is one great achievement.
It's 2-1 now in favor of the Clippers but we saw how Mavericks are fighting back. The lead is not that high which also gives a good impression for fans and analysts out there.

It's a long way to go for them but close for Clippers. We'll know if LAC won't give the game 4 for them or this is going to be their turnover to give way for a tied series.
Hoping that this series will be long and could even reach to game 7.
I'm not sure Mavericks could win without their star Luka Doncic, that injury of him coast them a lot, he is the ball handler of the team and produce points at the same time, so no, in the first round, I think it would end a 4-1 series in favor of the Clippers.
Luka out - Luka Doncic (ankle) out at least 6 games

Mavs already achieved what they wanted to achieve and that is more than enough for them. Nobody really gave them any sort of chance to beat clippers because we are talking about a guy on his second season only while mavs are on the verge of finishing the rebuild, they are done with the star part of it because KP and Luka is enough but they are going to build some FA and trading to build around them, which means if you want to actually do something it will take some years before then can contend for a championship.
However what they have achieved this season is to show that they are on the right track, when you show that to people (other players) they will want to come to your team because if they come to your team they will improve the team even more and they know it, so they will want to come and make that difference.

Great analysis.
Also, add the reasons for profit.
If there is no pandemic now, American Airlines Center will be sold out by now.
Then, the next season every Mavericks fan will sure want to buy tickets for every game just to see the stars that had been created by them.
I will, if given the opportunity.
Even for just one live game with Luka signing anything that I can bring.
Yeah great another disappointing seeding for the Knicks whats new lol. They haven't nailed the lottery since the Ewing draft. Slot 8 is the worst spot. Makes me cringe thinking back to when GS picked steph 7 and the Knicks ended up with jordon hill 8th lol. Ever since I'd rather have the knicks a spot lower either way its an unimpressive draft this year, think minnesota should go with Edwards or Wiseman, I'd steer clear of the ball family
either way its an unimpressive draft this year, think minnesota should go with Edwards or Wiseman, I'd steer clear of the ball family From what I see in the draft and what the subreddit of the Minnesota Timberwolves is saying this draft class doesn't really have a clear number 1 prospect unlike the 2019 one where Zion Williamson is the clear prospect so this is pretty much a shallow draft for them to pick on. Another feedback I have seen is that if the top prospects are guards and a center from Wiseman they are likely to trade the pick for a proven prospect like John Collins where Atlanta is reported to be interested in the #1 pick. Edwards and Ball might be the top priority in the draft and Minnesota has a loaded rotation in this area with D'Lo and Malik Beasley being proven to be good for the team, aside from that they are lacking a good caliber SF as well as PF not to mention lacking defensively and no top prospect in the class can answer those areas they are lacking.

They can give them a good fight maybe so I think that this will end in 6-7 games.
On the other hand if the Mavs will win this series then it will be a huge upset for Doc Rivers' team since the roster is loaded with talented and good players.
You are right with that since they have Leonard which was the Finals MVP last season, and losing in the first round is not good for him, this team might be dismantled if that will happen. It looks like Paul George are struggling in game 3, luckily Leonard always stay consistent to give the team a win.
Coming up, we have the Blazers vs Lakers, I'm not gonna bet on this now, I'll wait during the live game and see if Lillard is still the same.
Not just Lilard, Blazers needs the whole cast to play like how they did it coming from the first game of this series, even Lilard dominates without CJ, Melo Nurkic and Whiteside it will still be favored Lakers. They need to play together as a team.
Very tough assignment for Lilard and the rest of Blazers team especially if both LeBron and Davis will play well. Let see what adjustment they will implement this coming game 3.
