What a game. 

But seriously.....the 8-year olds with stage 4 cancer down at the cancer center act less dramatic than Luca. What a drama queen. Hope he doesn't lose that leg. 

Maybe SGA can get you some free throws if somebody looks at him wrong.

I don’t think I’ve ever been this angry after a win

Honestly the championship run when Bynum close lined Barea, I was at peak levels of Lakers hate and anger.

I can’t think of the last time a #1 seed was so desperate in a game 3 to resort to the hacking strategy. This feels like a newer coach getting desperate.

Fun series so far but it's quite obvious neither one of these teams is winning an NBA championship this season.

They’re going to have to officiate all this undercutting and pulling guys down on top of them that OKC is doing. It’s dangerous and pathetic. Call it a flagrant in the first quarter and call it a flagrant the second time it happens and it will stop quickly.

Are lane violations not a thing in the nba? Luka pointing out Holmgren’s toes on the line on the FT’s, guys step in the lane early every time, guys come inside the 3 point line early.

There’s 4 lane violations every free throw. Whether it’s the guys in the lane or the ones “outside” of the 3 pt arc

Young team not used to playoff pressure.

Should have called a flagrant on Shai late in the 4th when he elbowed Luka in the face.

I thought it was smart and don’t think it’s over. Kidd blinked, removed Lively, and OKC got 3 offensive boards. 

It put Mavs into bonus with six minutes to go and they were lucky that Dallas didn’t take further advantage of that. It also completely took away the ability OKC has to create turnovers and score/get to line in transition which is a huge weapon. I would be pretty surprised if we see it again.

Also I think the Mavs win this. And if they’re do I think they can play with whoever wins the other side. But it probably won’t be enough.

Man I wish we had a healthy Luka. The 2022 version. And maxi too.

Hell even Kyrie hasn’t quite been tbe same.

Beat up team. Gettin worse by the game. No way they beat either wolves or Denver most likely.

But hey, if they make the WCFs after last year? That’s legit.

Everyone wishes they were healthy. That's such a huge part of winning in the playoffs.

True. But OKC is healthy. So is Minny and Denver.

Dallas seems to be struggling with it more than any other in the west.

But yeah, doesn’t matter. It’s the playoffs. They gotta play with who they got

It was a good strategy for okc. We couldn't go small because we don't have maxi. Our small ball lineup with maxi at the 5 was one of the most efficient lineups in the entire NBA this season. Surprisingly.

Hurt vs injured applies here - is there anyone important actually missing games? Full disclosure I’m ignorant on the subject but Dallas is actually missing a key rotation player, and one just came back from missing basically the whole first round. 
If you want to just talk hurt, I don’t see Murray or Jokic  getting the shit beat out of them every night like Luka. Joker’s scratches on his pasty ass arms don’t count.
