Luka Doncic is the best player in this series- will it be enough against the starting 5 juggernaut in Boston? -Expect lots of post ups on smaller guards (White, Jrue, Pritchard) -DLive will keep KP low, and Luka will punish C's if he goes high -Likely JBrown as primary defender

The Mavericks should feel good going into game 5- here's why -The role players are making repeatable, successful plays on both ends -Luka and Kyrie are extremely committed on the defensive side, and are bound to get it going on O - Closeouts, rotations, and switches are 10/10

Everyone seems to be picking the Wolves. How can the Mavericks make the Finals? -Attack Gobert when he drops, with two of the most elite mid range/ 3pt shot makers Kyrie and Luka -When Gobert is high on the PnR, attack the rim quickly and make someone else contest or go at him.

The Mavericks are up 3-0 against the #1 defense in the league- but maybe our defense should be the one that's feared? -Closeouts, rotations, and PnR actions have been handled perfectly -Stars contributing (Luka 5 stls on Sunday) -Consistent switchability -Forcing tough shots

Throughout the game, constantly turning his back on the corners and packing too close to the paint, losing his man, badly timed double teams, late close outs and in general just a lazy performance on defense. And I thought Luka was the lazy defender?

Kyrie telling DJJ to clear to the opposite corner to improve the spacing. Luka sees Ant just hovering around for no reason which means Conley is on an island vs. 2 guys. Immediately whips the pass to Kyrie, extra swing to PJ for the three. Ant caught sleeping.
