On defensive side, we haven't figured them out. On offensive side, we have totally figured their base defense out which is really encouraging (which we didnt do in game 1). Next will be their zone which their played in second half, and they won the game in large parts due to the defensive adjustments they made using this. If we play offense as we did in second half, it will not be enough to play better defense. So, this absolutely needs to be dealt with. The great part is that this zone look is usually feasible to make adjustments to. The key part is we destroyed their one on one defense with Wiggins on Luka, or whoever else.
If this goes to game 7, its a Mavs win. The key is winning the 3 at home. So far we have played a lot better at home in general.
No guarantees they'll play as well at home as they have. So if they win 3 in Dallas, do you actually think they'll win game 7 in SF? I don't. GS isn't Phoenix.
