Expecting a HUGE game from Kyrie!

Let’s go MAVS!!!

[michaeltex]

Time for Round 3!

Not worried about the twin towers' defense but Kat will play well on offense. Mavs in 7!

Let's go Mavs!! Time to finally win a game one.

Since it's game 1, I wonder if we're going to get blown out tonight like usual or we surprise people by going up 1-0..

[donzingis38]

Damn. Gafford is a -47. He has to step up big time. Lively is outplaying him with a +87

[raf]

Mavs got this.

[Smitty]

Absolute must watch!

So far Kidd pretty much let them play in game one. Try the usual scheme. Try to play to the Mavs strenghts. He didn't make any noticable in game adjustments and waited for game two/three before he made bigger changes in the last two series.
But I wonder if Exum is back in the rotation or if Hardy is getting his minutes again.

[dirkfansince1998]

If McDaniels shoots better than PJ and DJJ it is going to be a rough series.

[GATA]

This is a Josh Green series. Don’t think Jones will be as effective this series

[GATA]

PJ getting abused

[dirkfansince1998]

DJJ not even looking at the rim even though he has an open lane. He needs to be aggressive. Cannot reset the offense late in the clock.

Damn. Mcdaniels is cooking Luka so far. Let’s get some d going.

That is the gameplan. They decided to play off McDaniels because he is a streaky/mediocre shooter but so far he is punishing them.

[dirkfansince1998]

Great quarter from Kyrie.

[dirkfansince1998]

When Gobert is on the bench the paint is wide open. Reid and Towns offer no rim protection.

[GATA]

Hardy playing excellent basketball
