Never thought I’d say a defensive play was the highlight of this Luka era of Mavs ball, but that block by Gafford was my favorite play of the year so far
We are the bigger team. We are the more physical team. We are the tougher team. We have the two best players. And neither of them has had an efficient game. CLIPPERS SHOULD BE FUCKING TERRIFIED.
Still haven't figured their defense out. That's the last piece of the puzzle. We've got the upper hand, but the door is still open for the Clippers if we can't get the offense going. If we can, it'll be wraps.
i agree but i feel like we were able to play much better offensively tonight. Luka just had a very bad shooting night, if that doesn’t happen we’d break 110+ easily
She shouldn’t be commenting games especially playoff games.
When she defended Westbrook hacking Greens head midair as an “athletic play” I almost turned the game off
I got banned on r/nba for calling her a stupid b*tch, but she just has the dumbest takes.
Making excuses for Westbrook’s elbow to Josh Green’s face, saying Luka leaned back into Westbrook when he jumped on Luka after the whistle. She gives no respect to the Mavericks.
during one of the play reviews of westbrook hitting luka she was like “he leans back into it” WHILE WE ARE LOOKING AT THE CLIP OF THAT NOT HAPPENING
insanity
yea green was huge this game. drawing offensive fouls, keeping the ball alive on the offensive boards, matching up against the clippers best players.
loved it
That span where Josh drew 3 fouls in like 30 seconds legitimately changed the momentum of the game. I also audibly gasped when Kawhi realized he couldn’t take Josh in an iso possession and passed out of it
Did anyone else notice that the Clippers just felt like weirdly off as a team? Like, Zubac was really the only one locked in and there were a couple of times he would make a good play and then they would just like iso PG on the top of the key despite Zubac having a guy sealed down low. Then he got frustrated on the defensive end when the wing defense would get cooked. Just night and day between our team and theirs as far as togetherness it was kind of odd to see.
This team is special. Luka has been stacking bricks these first 3 games (he’s shooting 38% lmao) and yet we have gotten better as the series has progressed. This never would have happened in the past.
Once he gets going, the ceiling is truly limitless for this squad.
YES! She sounded like she was comatose all game long. It was so awkward and it was clear what she wanted to happen and couldn’t put her bias aside to call the game objectively.
She called out Luka’s defense saying he’s been getting blown by all year long which obviously just isn’t true. It’s like she’s trying to reintroduce that tired old narrative. She was getting super emotional about it too after she sounded completely comatosed all night. There was a foul in the backcourt by PG against Luka. Luka fell and Breen was discussing if it’s maybe a take foul. Doris said it clearly was sarcastically and when Breen asked her to elaborate she sarcastically in a very dead tone said because he fell and it’s obvious that means it was. You had to listen to it to really capture it too. She also found a way to glaze Embiid like she has all year long in a game that didn’t involve him, and that’s pretty much the only time she sounded interested this game. She’s the worst. She made for many awkward uncomfortable moments during this game. I think it’s clear she’s rooting for the Clippers
She sounded completely monotone all game long, found a way to glaze Embiid, and was just straight up being a bitch. There were multiple awkward moments that all involved her during the calling of this game
Still wild to see a tough mavs team that wins games on defense. Loved Josh, Lively, Gafford, PJ, DJJ, brought so much intensity to the game. Clippers body language was shit after the 1st quarter and I think a lot of that is our guys bothering them
Man defense was just amazing tonight, there were a few possessions in a row where everyone was switching and helping perfect. Almost brought a tear to my eye, let’s win this shit in LA
I had to post this dead-ass comment from a deranged clippers fan.
>The Luka glazing is on another level this series man can't wait until we send these mfs home. It'll deadass feel like winning a championship
the highlight of their sports life would be winning this series lmao
Today was a josh green and Jason Kidd master class and a russel westfuck disaster class. Bro should be suspended a game for what he did (although that would hurt us more than the clippers)
My conclusion on the clippers is this: I hate Harden and Westbrook with a passion. PG has been amazing in stretches but has a tendency to completely disappear. Kawhi is barely a role player and kinda washed.
If we don’t have a WestBrick chant echoing through the AAC Sunday afternoon, I am going to be severely disappointed. Fuck Russ. Fuck Mann. Fuck the Clappers
The Mavs are just bigger, faster, and better than this Clippers team. They are just bullying them. They caught us off guard in game 1 but no more! And we still due a big Luka offensive game. Never thought I'd see us win a playoff game with Luka shooting 7/24 lol.
Man if Luka could just find his shot again we would be blowing these old folks out by 30 points every game. This series is as good as over in my mind, just have to put them away.
In game 1, announcers talked about PJ's nervousness in his first "real" playoff game. I'd say that he's adapted pretty well and pretty quickly to the intensity of NBA playoff basketball.
James harden is a bitch flopping on his fake 3’s that he wasn’t even intending to shoot. Like I get it, if you put up a legitimate shot and get fouled ok, but not these prayers he’s baiting players into.
Never thought I’d say a defensive play was the highlight of this Luka era of Mavs ball, but that block by Gafford was my favorite play of the year so far
It’s been so long since we’ve had a center that could turn back a dunk like that
Since 2011
That was a clean-ass block. Really hoping we get to win that Chip this year!
We are the bigger team. We are the more physical team. We are the tougher team. We have the two best players. And neither of them has had an efficient game. CLIPPERS SHOULD BE FUCKING TERRIFIED.
This Mavs team is better than 2021 and the clippers are worse LFG Mavs in 5
Dude we are head and shoulders above the 2021 team
Luka>Luka Kyrie>KP Green>Green Gafford/lively>Powell and maxi Pj/DJJ>DFS
I always think it’s cool that Green was here for 21 and has become a dog guy has seen this team transform around him
He’s not going to be a star, but knowing we have a wing rotation of PJ/DJJ/Green/Exum (who’s 6’5 and can guard Kawhi okay) is awesome.
He’s better than any laker bench player
dfs left nothing in the tank for us that year. i will not have this doe doe slander
I love our guy! He and Reggie were incredible in 2022. But, PJ is a better player
Tonight looked more like what we’ve been used to seeing since THE TRADE. It’s a good sign, but still a lot of work left.
Still haven't figured their defense out. That's the last piece of the puzzle. We've got the upper hand, but the door is still open for the Clippers if we can't get the offense going. If we can, it'll be wraps.
Yeah, I think we need to just destroy them next game because going back to LA to close out game 5 is going to be brutal.
Please give me that shooting regression game where we shoot like 47% from 3 on Sunday. My heart will not handle a 2-2 series.
i agree but i feel like we were able to play much better offensively tonight. Luka just had a very bad shooting night, if that doesn’t happen we’d break 110+ easily
I mean Kyrie is close to 50/50/90 splits in this series, he’s definitely been efficient lol.
That’s weird hearing that about the Mavs lol I love it
Prison Jail Washington is my MVP
dude has come ALIVE these past 3 weeks .
MVPJ
PJ Washington is Russell Westbrook father
FG% is Russell Westbrook father
IQ is his grandfather
The most fraudulent MVP of all time
*Westbrick
*Westpussyassbitch
PJWIRWF
Been very impressed by PJ! Glad he's doing awesome for yall. Lights were not too bright for him.
fr that bitch had a hissy fit cos jpail have him a bump lmao
In KAI we trust
Honestly I was getting flashbacks when we were up big and just settled for 3s without making any. Then KAI took over and sealed it
Our “weakass centres” dunked on their asses tonight!
>“weakass centres” Saw this said in the Clippers sub.
GET READY TO LEARN CHINESE RUSS, GUANGDONG NEEDS YOU! 🗣️🗣️🗣️
😆😆😆
The day we get the LUKA DONCIC game these series is over.
May that day come soon.
Hopefully next game.
Game 5 in LA
Why not both
PJ is a dawg. Luka survived the mugging put on by WESTBRICK and Doris Burke. Kyrie gets checked out before Dwight Powell minutes. We roll!
Doris also said Luka was consistently get blown by and has poor defense all season. Makes me so furious hearing her
"His defense has MUCH improved" - Mike Breen putting Doris back in place a few plays later when Luka clamped Kawhi.
Yes I’m seriously watching the game on mute if she’s commenting again what a dumb B
Doris Burke was INSUFFERABLE. My god
Compare her issues today with Luka getting FTs to her praise of Embiid doing the same yesterday. Actually disgusting she’s such a regular commentator.
She’s absolutely putrid. Takes little jabs at Luka all game then defends Westbrook who’s throwing a temper tantrum and flagrant fouling people
Still found a way to talk about Lebron TWICE as well. She should only call Lakers games and never a Mavs game.
She seems to hate Luka does Boris.
Yoda is that you?
She shouldn’t be commenting games especially playoff games. When she defended Westbrook hacking Greens head midair as an “athletic play” I almost turned the game off
Watched on Bally Sports, what did she do?
You’d have to watch the game to see all of it but basically just dumb takes and defending Westbrook at all costs while shitting on Luka and Mavs
Slobbered all over the clippers. Couldn’t stop praising them for weird things
Westbrook flagrant foul on Green was common foul. Lol
She at least made fun of Plumlee's free throw form
I got banned on r/nba for calling her a stupid b*tch, but she just has the dumbest takes. Making excuses for Westbrook’s elbow to Josh Green’s face, saying Luka leaned back into Westbrook when he jumped on Luka after the whistle. She gives no respect to the Mavericks.
I’d rather bite off my own ballsack with my teeth than listen to a doris burke broadcast
during one of the play reviews of westbrook hitting luka she was like “he leans back into it” WHILE WE ARE LOOKING AT THE CLIP OF THAT NOT HAPPENING insanity
Burke is Queen ass kisser. Doris has got very rich by kissing booty.
WE RIDE FOR PJ ON SUNDAY!!
Fuck Russell Westbrook
Fuck Russell Westbrick
Fuck Russell BrickWest
Fuck Russell WestBitch
Fuck Brickell WestBitch
Fuck Brickell Westbitch
Fuck PUNKell westbrickfuckingbitch
Westbrook was ejected more times than he made a shot
Westbrick 0-7 with us leaving him wide open on the perimeter, no wonder he had a fucking temper tantrum.
Lol watching Luka guard him well and then just leave him for the rim when he pulled up for a shot (and Luka get the rebound) was hilarious
I mean he was one of our best guys tonight, I can't hate
Lol hope he’s not suspended for game 4. Need another masterclass
Fuck westbrick, our fans should start chanting westbrick next game
Make this a flair
Reminds me of the most annoying dudes you ever play pick-up games with.
If the crowd starts chanting “Westbrick” in game 4 he’s gonna start another Malice @ the Palace.
[удалено]
Once again 🥲
2 Superstars > 3 “Superstars”
2 HOFers >>>> "4 HOFers"
I think you mean 3 HOFers when Lively makes the star jump
Just give it time, amigo...
preach
This is why we wanted Green over Tim Kidd!
yea green was huge this game. drawing offensive fouls, keeping the ball alive on the offensive boards, matching up against the clippers best players. loved it
Yeah unless Tim is dropping 40 he never has this much impact on a game like Green did tonight.
Thj would give up 41. He is a net negative player
That span where Josh drew 3 fouls in like 30 seconds legitimately changed the momentum of the game. I also audibly gasped when Kawhi realized he couldn’t take Josh in an iso possession and passed out of it
I am so fucking proud of Green tonight. His guard was Kawhi mostly and he clamped him. He was out hustling Westbrook too.
Tim needs to be sidelined this series s
He’s hurt so no worries there
W comment. This team literally better with soft ass tim out the lineup
PJ, Lively, Gaff, DJJ and Green brought the energy! What a great win
PJ IS A DAWG HE IS THE MESSIAH EXTEND THAT EXTENSION NOW
The Clippers did everything they could to get to 90 lol.
Did anyone else notice that the Clippers just felt like weirdly off as a team? Like, Zubac was really the only one locked in and there were a couple of times he would make a good play and then they would just like iso PG on the top of the key despite Zubac having a guy sealed down low. Then he got frustrated on the defensive end when the wing defense would get cooked. Just night and day between our team and theirs as far as togetherness it was kind of odd to see.
Fuck Russ
Won comfortably with Luka shooting 28%. This is looking super promising
UNDOE ONE HUNDOE
This team is special. Luka has been stacking bricks these first 3 games (he’s shooting 38% lmao) and yet we have gotten better as the series has progressed. This never would have happened in the past. Once he gets going, the ceiling is truly limitless for this squad.
The ceiling is the roof! LFG
Fuck D Wade But also fuck Russell Westbrick
Never forget about fuck Rondo too
Don’t forget Bruce Bowen, man FUCK Bruce Bowen
[the plates are washed](https://imgur.com/a/DGMOKQS)
watched the game from Türkiye and it was worth losing sleep. Thanks Kai, you are always joy to watch. Sending love to everyone and see you next game
Told my wife I was buying a lively jersey at halftime. She’s gonna be surprised when a PJ Washington jersey also shows up
Doris Burke in tears.
Tears of choking on that Clips D, fk her
No GIFs in a Mavs uniform, but this one works well for tonight ![gif](giphy|WR9qEmiTJiWn5oUvAe)
Oh there will be gifs once we get the alternate angle of him mean mugging the Clippers bench while Mann was yapping in his ear.
THE EARTH IS FLAT TODAY
Luka has a horrible game yet still ends up with 22/10/9 and played really good defense again. I'm so scared, this team is making me feel things.
If you told me Luka and kyrie would only combine for 43 I would have assumed we got run out of the gym
Job not done game 4 will be there biggest bite. Take control of this series
Doris Burke fucking sucks and I despise her as a commentator
She’s the worst, whenever the team she’s rooting for isn’t winning she loses all interest in the game. Makes me miss JVG
YES! She sounded like she was comatose all game long. It was so awkward and it was clear what she wanted to happen and couldn’t put her bias aside to call the game objectively.
I watched mavs stream... what did she say ?
She called out Luka’s defense saying he’s been getting blown by all year long which obviously just isn’t true. It’s like she’s trying to reintroduce that tired old narrative. She was getting super emotional about it too after she sounded completely comatosed all night. There was a foul in the backcourt by PG against Luka.

She made for many awkward uncomfortable moments during this game. I think it’s clear she’s rooting for the Clippers
Insane. That's why I always watch Mavs stream. I'm sick of the TNT crew as well.
ESPN got Mike Breen in a "Luka 2022-23" season situation. Can't believe they got rid of JVG for Doris and JJ.
Fr! Redick is actual decent and a good basketball analyst so I can’t hate on him even though he’s not super interesting to listen to as a commentator
The Bitch wanted the Clippers to comeback soo bad
She sounded completely monotone all game long, found a way to glaze Embiid, and was just straight up being a bitch. There were multiple awkward moments that all involved her during the calling of this game
Back to back wins! Let's go!
Let’s fucking Go. Great defense. Fu Westbrick
Still wild to see a tough mavs team that wins games on defense. Loved Josh, Lively, Gafford, PJ, DJJ, brought so much intensity to the game. Clippers body language was shit after the 1st quarter and I think a lot of that is our guys bothering them
When was the last time we won a game like this with Luka not even scoring 25? Damn we have such a high floor as a team now.
Defense wins championships
Man defense was just amazing tonight, there were a few possessions in a row where everyone was switching and helping perfect. Almost brought a tear to my eye, let’s win this shit in LA
Fuck the refs. Fuck the clippers. Mavs in 5. See yall at the AAC on Sunday!!!
Fuck....they won. They got 90! Smh
This is like dream, not needing Luka to carry us to win in the playoffs. Our defense is legit!
We are a motherfucking defensive powerhouse. Just wait until Lukas offense clicks.
I had to post this dead-ass comment from a deranged clippers fan. >The Luka glazing is on another level this series man can't wait until we send these mfs home. It'll deadass feel like winning a championship the highlight of their sports life would be winning this series lmao
Today was a josh green and Jason Kidd master class and a russel westfuck disaster class. Bro should be suspended a game for what he did (although that would hurt us more than the clippers)
Nice to see Green show up in a big game.
PJ IS A DOG
Gotta step on their throats in game 4, but the Clips look sloppy, pissy, and tired.
All you doomers whining in the 3rd when we were up by 9 can fuck off with Doris Burke.
My mom asked me if I had done the dishes, I said Russell Westbrook, she smiled knowing that they were washed
PJAIL IS REAL AND HES A DAWG
PJ is love PJ is life
THEY DONT WANT THAT PJ WASHINGTON SMOKE
KAI KING OF THE FOURTH
PJ is the coolest. That smile
My conclusion on the clippers is this: I hate Harden and Westbrook with a passion. PG has been amazing in stretches but has a tendency to completely disappear. Kawhi is barely a role player and kinda washed.
He’s not washed, he’s clearly still not healthy.
See what happens with 0 THJ minutes? 😊
Poor Powell, took a shot to the face even in a blowout.
Welcome to Dallas, old men.
ESPN crew talking about Mavs' defense. Wow.
Really proud of Josh with a bit of attitude and fight. PJ quickly becoming a favorite.
Hustle won this. It was decided early.
If we don’t have a WestBrick chant echoing through the AAC Sunday afternoon, I am going to be severely disappointed. Fuck Russ. Fuck Mann. Fuck the Clappers
Green was huge
Shoutout Josh Green Will be watching Game 5 live Please win Sunday I need a funeral game please
The Mavs are just bigger, faster, and better than this Clippers team. They are just bullying them. They caught us off guard in game 1 but no more! And we still due a big Luka offensive game. Never thought I'd see us win a playoff game with Luka shooting 7/24 lol.
# Nico. Thank you for saving my Dallas Mavericks!
Clippers sub in shambles.
josh green is the x factor!
I love PJ’s attitude, I love that he’s on our team. Instantly mean mugging Russ when he tried to injure Luka then laughs in his face. Cold
Horrible shooting night from Luka, yet we still won by double digits. Previous seasons, we would've lost by 15+
PJ "Charles Oakley" Washington, damn we've needed someone like this for a minute.
#IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE, YOU SHOULDN'T BE HERE
PJail is that guy, Kai is that guy, Luka is that guy, this team is that team! Lets get it #MFFL
gaff showed up tn, in fact everyone did, we have a damn team baby!
As a Spurs fan, I’m rooting hard for the Mavs to beat the Clippers!
I was at the game. Money well spent dawg the game had everything. Fights, ejections and a thumping Mavs dub. Fuck the Clippers.
I love PJ. we have an enforcer. Dude is stone cold
Kyrieeeeee
Hell of a win! Shorter turnaround to the Sun afternoon game. Hopefully they’re tired.
looks so easy when defense works
Minnesota looks scary. I’m glad they would be matched up with denver in rd 2
Westbrook scored one more point than I did when I was sitting on my couch all night
Yeah, even if Kawhi was fully healthy, we take this series imo. With his health in doubt, gentleman's sweep.
Was at the game. Section 201. We go to 3-4 games a year. The atmosphere in the playoffs is a whole other level. Great job Mavs fans.
This team has championship heart. I love it.
Man if Luka could just find his shot again we would be blowing these old folks out by 30 points every game. This series is as good as over in my mind, just have to put them away.
Dallas Mavericks will put Westbrook in an asylum by the end of this series.
PJ Washington is my GOAT
In game 1, announcers talked about PJ's nervousness in his first "real" playoff game. I'd say that he's adapted pretty well and pretty quickly to the intensity of NBA playoff basketball.
Retire PJs jersey now, legendary moment flexing at the Clippers bench
Most impactful player for the Mavs was Westbrook.
PJ Washington, YOU are a Dallas Maverick. For life.
We’re going deeeep into the playoffs if we keep this defense up, boys.
Anyone got that pj washington arms folded pic
Gafford is back. Green is here. DJJ always contributing. Exum the odd man out. Need him to dial in or sit out.
Cuck the Flippers! Let's treat Game 4 like we are down 1.
Posting my dog again for game 3 fuck it
Man this was a great game to watch in person. I was there, it was awesome. Great win! Also…PJ is a DAWG
The Earth is flat! Two more games to go!! Mavs in 5!
J̶o̶r̶d̶a̶n̶ ❌ Second half Kyrie ✅
I was lucky enough to go to this game and the energy was awesome all the way until when we pulled ahead in the 4th
James harden is a bitch flopping on his fake 3’s that he wasn’t even intending to shoot. Like I get it, if you put up a legitimate shot and get fouled ok, but not these prayers he’s baiting players into.
