Oklahoma City THUNDER vs NEW Dallas MAVERICKS – FULL GAME – CPU vs CPU – NBA 2K24

Oklahoma City THUNDER vs NEW Dallas MAVERICKS – FULL GAME – CPU vs CPU – NBA 2K24

But now they’re in great position holding that prize top spot and of course there’s Dallas neck and neck at the top they’re tied in first place I think for the Thunder I recall them having a lot of naysayers at the start of the season but now they may not have

Any this team is ready for a deep playoff run well this is their goal there’s no doubt about that for what many expected of them so far they have not disappointed all right let’s check out the starting group for the Thunder inside we got Williams and holgren Shay

Gilis Alexander is out there with Josh Giddy and it’s Dort in at the three and for Dallas Luca and Kyrie are The Talented back court PJ Washington out there with Daniel Gafford and it’s green in at the small forward position well there may be a lot of games ahead but

Game one of the regular season is always a little extra special Grant yeah no question about it this is a game everyone looks forward to to start the season off on the right foot I can’t tell you how huge it is for a team’s confidence to get a win on opening night

But it’s definitely one everyone is looking forward to it’s one of the best things about playing with Luca donic he creates a lot of open looks pass the [Applause] D hren inside he’s guarded by Gafford and that one’s good home gr just taking it right to the rim and no one

Was there to greet to and I think defensively that is not the way you want to start giving up high percentage looks that doesn’t typically end well now here’s Irving Gafford the screen from about 16 rejected by Homen and you can’t forget about hen’s reach especially when he’s nearby on defense pass to

Williams to the paint rebounded by green and so it’s green who brings up the ball for Dallas the last time these two clubs came together was also in this building with an unfortunate ending for the home team their reserves have to step up this time around and get stops

That was the difference the last time these teams played now here’s giddy in his last outing eight points for him Williams a screen on Gafford here’s gilis Alexander from Deep Giddy and that comes off the assist by guilis Alexander yeah this is going to help Josh giddy’s

Game Boy The Confidence will rise if he can make these catch and shoot opportunities donic against D shoots from 14 and the bucket counts and he is on his way to the line he’ll try to make it a three-point play and what can you say about Luca donic that has not

Already been said here’s a guy in his mid 20s and a perennial MVP candidate doors yeah his career is off to an extraordinary start he’s drawn comparisons to the legends of of the game and like so many of the greats ba he is a one of one the ability to

Command the game from all aspects is truly something to [Applause] behold and the free throw no good one thing you can count on with this Mavericks team they shoot threes all night long if you let him I mean near the top of the league for attempts

Beyond The Arc they do it every chance they can get now here’s dor he’s coming off a 10-point game against the Jazz in Salt Lake City 80% from the field to start playing with a ton of confidence gilis Alexander against [Applause] Irving oh sweet move the Thunder Pull It

In what a masterful job on the defensive then did everything possible to alter that shot pass to guilis Alexander over Gafford and Gil just Alexander missing Bo he’s definitely covered well there and we know he can knock down the fadeaway shot just didn’t fall there green the pass to

Donic and count that two points and a chance for one more at the line well the hoop and the harm Luka donic the finish and he’ll get an opportunity to add to that Joe’s checked in for Oklahoma City find the lanes find the lanes one shot despite missing playoffs in 2023

The future still looks bright for OKC doors ba I don’t know how you could not be impressed with what they did they’re accomplished in the regular season well beyond what the expectation was so many people dismissed them at the start what a bright young they have and the shots

Good by Irving and Kyrie is a threat from anywhere Beyond The Ark including those corners donic against gilis Alexander pass to holr that one Falls nice feed that time from giddy hr’s got his second basket of the game intelligent basketball keep feeding the hot hand here’s Irving and

Irving Powers it home wow get up there Kyrie you don’t often see him show off those Hots here’s gidy Doris how about the production we’ve been seeing from Shay gild Alexander ba he has taken that step from Star to Superstar simply stated I think he’s got the potential to make multiple

All NBA teams the ability offensively to attack at three levels and to be equally good on the defensive end of the floor this guy is something [Applause] special first one Falls for him what you love about Shay guilis Alexander is this young man’s work ethic he is a gym rat

Who’s always looking for ways to improve both shots good from the strike hey you look at some of the young star power on OKC Grant they haven’t had that since the Kevin Durant year oh ba I mean those KD teams were built through the draft so no matter where they’re picking

The Thunder seem to uncover gims and it’s donic missing and that close out certainly made a difference well no question he altered that shot and most of the time that’s just as good as blocking it now here’s guilis Alexander coming off a 28-point game against the

Jazz in Salt Lake City he was also an excellent setup man as well this guy was cutting the defense to shreds with incredible passing here’s Irving here’s donic got it good job in the low post donic has got seven points and credit his teammates for feeding him all quarter outside guilis Alexander takes

One from 10 ft yes on the jumper another lead change give these teams credit they’re really fighting it out neither team willing to give an inch and neither able to see the momentum this has been a fascinating one to watch Thunder with a lead HR the pass to

Joe now guilas Alexander he has six oh and there’s the whistle on the shot so two free throws for him coming up Daniel Gafford picks one up boy Shay gild just Alexander has become the master at drawing fouls thinking back to one of the most fun runs in the NBA

Grant those early 2000 naavs teams oh I played against those teams and they were incredible offensively of course you had Steve rash running the point Dirk and Finley on the wings and the pace they played with they were well ahead of their time and Grant when you scan the

OKC roster you see length at every position yeah it’s definitely their philosophy VA we’re seeing a number of franchises going that route what I would say about the thunder though many three of their guys still have some strength to add Dan soy makes both from the line

Well this guy has multiple ways to get to the free throw line and boy has his stroke been on the money gaffard with a screen on gilis Alexander Irving finds gaffer and he got the whistle on the way up so he’ll be headed to the line for a

Pair and Grant the Mavericks this summer committing to their Superstar tandem of Kyrie Irving and Luca donic yeah ba and The Next Step was surrounding them with the defense and floor spacing they’ll need to compete overall I like the moves they made and we’ll see how it all pans out come

April that free throw good from Gafford you know Doris when you think of the Oklahoma City Thunder the days of Durant Westbrook and Harden certainly come to mind boy what a special time that was for this organization there’s no question those guys went on to to win

MVP awards now this front office wants to establish a fresh identity with a new Young core so much to look forward to chalk up two there giddy’s got five now yeah Josh giddy has the size to absorb contact doesn’t let it pH him just Powers through the shot on the wing

Irving fade away and it’s good for two he’s got seven know he had room to operate but added a little fade on that shot just for good measure download and hren with the basket on the assist by guilis Alexander and this is where hren is such a scoring threat his

Size can make interior shots easier to find Irving looking around and that’s his fourth bucket of the game in seven attempts well there’s there’s an unpredictability to his offensive game he is always keeping the defense off balance pass to Joe and here’s hren nice D from Gafford I love how

They’ve attacked the boards here in the first quarter all right let’s take a second to view the 2K leaderboard and look at last season’s top scoring squads fifth on the list the Thunder and last year I liked watching this team operate on the offensive end the ball movement the

Patience the confidence you love seeing all that come together shoot two that free throw no good ohy Luca strength his size his Savvy puts him at the free throw line so often and he sinks the second and the thunder in possession here Gil just Alexander feeling it out a

Bit up and over donic again Oklahoma city that is a difficult shot by Shay gilis Alexander under duress of the de wow Irving the pass to donic from the AR and a clear foul there as he shot the triple he’ll go to the line for three free throws you know not

The smartest play a Defender can make there and a moment here to take a look at the scoring breakdown for Oklahoma City they’ve done a great job J facilitating so far so moving the Rock and finding the open man just great selfless basketball I think the other

Thing they’ve done a great job of is making their presence felt inside converting tons of pain opportunities that’s good from donic Hardaway checked in for Kyrie [Applause] Irving Makes it and the next one could tie it up and the Mavericks making a change here Irvings checked [Applause] in and he Nails the third and here’s gilis Alexander 10 points for him pass to holgren it’s good and he drew contact on the shot so he will go to the line a

Three-point play opportunity a different look for Dallas kba comes in for Gafford and Hardaway subbed in for Luca donic yeah many believe hren must add muscle overtime to his wirey frame we’ll see if he focuses on doing just that hard away with it coming off a terrific game against New York and the

Layup is good off the glass both teams are hot woo this is a fun one to watch well you love it when you can get off to a fast start offensively you hate it though when your opponent does the same now here’s Gil just Alexander off Target with the open

Look CBA pass it to Green fires it and it’s Irving missing Oklahoma City has gone two for three from outside the [Applause] ark outside guilis Alexander the fader he can’t get that one to fall the Mavericks trailing Hard Away the pass to Clea can’t get the goahead bucket Bo did

Everything right till he got to the rim he needs to finish that outside Williams here’s Joe no made baskets yet shot clock at six lets it go from Deep knocks down the triple pick works well there but the defense left a lot to be desired it takes incredible effort to stay

Connected to the hip of the offensive player you’ve got to want to work now here’s Irving he had 16 in the win against New York Washington and it’s hren with a rebound hr’s got five rebounds in the game outside giddy off Target with the three you know

For my money Josh gidy is one of the most entertaining players in the league Grant yeah he has superb Vision in the open floor ba read the Angles and sees how plays develop with ease his teammates have to be ready for a pass from giddy at all times time called here

The Thunder decide to talk it [Applause] over [Applause] [Applause] go [Applause] [Applause] Cor Jones he’s checked in for the Mavericks Hardy comes in for green all right a quick look now at how the point totals have looked over the last few months for Chad hren I don’t think anyone expected to see his

Production drop off the way it has over the last few games but I have to credit the defenses he’s been facing they’ve done their homework work and they’re finding ways to hold him down and now he needs to find new ways to beat them Oklahoma City has gone three for

Five from Deep so far in this matchup to the inside and there’s the rejection now here’s kleba still no points Jones with a screen on Williams That’s fly chance there to take the lead but a miss and that’s where you want to make the next pass this guy is a good

Scorer but the defense was right on [Applause] him here’s Joe the Thunder with another miss the Mavericks shooting 53% setting the tone right from the opening tip Hardway with it now Wiggins defending they now take the lead hardaway’s got seven point points in the game well in today’s NBA you’ve got to

Be able to play in pick and roll and hard away doing work right there well the pass to Joe holgren against Clea and it’s hren missing the Mavericks leading pass to Hardaway oh rejected by Wiggins and the ball goes out of bounds last Touch by Wiggins it’s time to take a glance again

At that super block yeah just some terrific effort there and you know the whole team will get an energy boost off a block like that one LCA donic just checked in for the [Applause] Mavericks 121 left in the open in quarter Hardy’s shot is good Big Ups to this coaching staff great play design there and for the Thunder they’re shooting a solid 50% in the opening quarter Joe Pass to Wiggins donic against gilis Alexander and Luca donic is going to pick up the

Foul that’s his first foul of the game Jang he’s checked in for Williams here’s gilis Alexander 10 points for him floats one up and the layup is up and in he’s got 12 let’s remember that at 6’6 Shay gilis Alexander can more than handle himself near the cup pass to Hardway here’s Hardy

Donic on the wing up the three oh he got hacked on the three-pointer and he’ll head to the line it’s going to go on Shay gilis Alexander re that’s good from donic and they’re just hacking away out there I mean it’s costing them too at the free throw line

The Thunder making a switch here that one’s no good and he Nails the third Grant they could attempt a two for one here they could the key here is a good look pass to Joe this one for three it’s rebounded by Dallas ca’s got rebound number five here tonight to the middle here’s

Jones oh clanks that one he’s 0 for one to start Oklahoma City trailing Williams passes to Wiggins here’s Wallace hasn’t gotten one to fall yet here’s hren and another shot and he was fouled while in the act of shooting so he’ll take two free throws and you know when you have the

Size and skill of a guy like Chad hren you’re going to draw [Applause] fouls good on that one I think for a guy like Chad holr it’s about staying healthy he has the size and skill and the mentality to be [Applause] successful he hits the second from the line And a high-scoring first quarter both teams really filling it up the Mavericks on top leading by just two don’t go away we’ll be back with the second quarter in just a moment and it’s been a pretty even game here after one quarter of play and a moment

To look at the scoring approach in terms of where the points are coming from for Dallas the most consistent attack back on offense so far has been the mid-range jump shot we’ll see if they can keep that rolling well also guys what a start from Beyond The Arc a huge part of their

Game today that’s going to help their spacing and we’ve heard players asking for more clarity and accountability from the officials you think they have a point well players often ask refs to explain calls so they also want some clarity from the lead whether the refs got it right and that information often

Times can help them make the proper adjustments moving forward on the floor for Oklahoma City getting going in the second they’ve got alexe poesi he’s out there with kenri Williams and it’s gilis Alexander in at the point and let’s send it over to Alli laforce Josh Green is

Becoming a key three and D Wing in Dallas M Legend Dirk nitzky said quote he’s a great defender already he’s athletic he plays super super hard and now he added a three-pointer to his game obviously that’s one thing he needed to get better at he puts in a lot of work

Brian well you can see it it is is absolutely paid off thanks Ali that’s aggressive defense Shay always competing on that end of the floor pass to Williams That’s tipped and up the court they come the Mavericks on the break CA left side hard away on the wing three-pointer Off the Mark Oklahoma

City’s gotten three of their seven threes to find the net in this matchup and a pass break now the Mavericks On The Run here’s Hardy Gil just Alexander with a rebound and guilis Alexander’s got the ball here for the Thunder and after this one they’re at home against Sacramento

It’ll be a quick stop over at home before they have to get back out on the road for Dallas they’ve gotten only one of four shots to go in out to the right wing here’s Hardy over Williams and count the basket he was fouled and he’s going to the line

For one more the Thunder making a switch here Williams has checked In one shot two minutes now played in the second [Applause] quarter here’s Joe Pass to gilis Alexander SGA from distance but he certainly got all the tools SGA proving to be increasingly a threat from Deep now a timeout called by Dallas adjustments are part of every game in

Every quarter of a game I think coach sees something here well this is a chess match looking ahead a few moves and trying to execute toward [Applause] [Applause] [Applause] that [Applause] [Applause] Cor [Applause] for the Thunder Lou Dort comes in for Williams and it’s Josh giddy in for [Applause] [Applause] wiins here’s Hardy he’s got five for three Hardaway Nails it from Beyond The Arc hardaway’s got 10 points you can see it once this guy gets his rhythm he is

So hard to slow down what an excellent night for him and his team taking it inside SGA there’s so many ways Shake gilders Alexander can create for this offense he’s becoming one of the top scorers in the game pass to Jones donic deciding where to go with it

And the Mavericks another three and he’s coming off a huge performance and his confidence couldn’t be any higher and his coach knows that too well the best players to me Deliver night after night after night so as long as he’s hot keep riding it now here’s gilis Alexander

Guarded by donic and there’s the whistle that’ll belong to shake gilis Alexander that’s his third foul so far I love great defense just quick to establish his feet and he takes the hit and the Mavericks with some changes Gafford he’s checked in for Jones and green is subbed

In for Hardy and Oklahoma City with a change here too hr’s checked in now Hardaway 10 points for him the 11 footer oh Luca playing grown man ball [Applause] inside just under 3 and 1/2 minutes played here in the second quarter good door to screen on donic here’s Giddy and it’s Oklahoma

City scoring again yeah Josh giddy taking the in between game because that’s what the defense conceded outside Hardway pass to donic that one doesn’t drop good work defensively by [Applause] Dort outside giddy here’s Joe from outside the Ark rebounded by kba cba’s got a sixth rebound on the night pass to Gafford donic

[Applause] outside and the dunp by gaer can you say immediate entry into the Highlight Reel woo what a d it’s showtime now man they’ve built up a lead and they’re starting to rub it in there’s the AT&T 5G slam can capturing the moment and kidy has got the ball here

For the Oklahoma City Thunder eight-point game inside and Dort with the bucket on the assist from giddy so D’s got five now well he may be 65 folks but L Dort has got the size and strength and finishing ability to play pick and roll donic outside another Miss by donic Bo a Miss

Like that will drive any score crazy especially with the defender giving a cushion it’s to by donic jumps up Luca with the Finish boy Luca donic showing good awareness and quick hands to make the defensive play and then get the transition nice now a timeout call by Oklahoma City [Applause] you [Applause] your

A different look for Dallas Washington comes in for Clea and Irving is subbed in for Hardaway and Oklahoma City with a change here too Williams has checked in for [Applause] [Applause] Williams Oklahoma City has gone one of two from deep in the second quarter Williams a screen on donic giddy

Oh and there’s a onand jam tremendous burst from Josh giddy on the jve just turns up the intensity Washington outside pass to donic shoots a fade away and the Mavericks getting another bucket right there he’s officially taken away over this first half making all the right reads Oklahoma City has gone four of

Nine so far from the perimeter now here’s holgren back to Giddy and the layup is good giddy’s got 11 and great awareness hrin so good at reading the movement of his teammates a very heav passer for a big man outside Irving from the wing the Thunder Pull It in hr’s got double

Digit rebounds now in the game pass to gidy back to holgren Williams with it now giddy five on the [Applause] clock the three is up Mavericks with the rebound next match up they’ll be at home against the Wizards and that’ll be their second of four total games at

Home blocked my goodness Josh giddy using every bit of that frame to send that one back the Thunder making a switch here donic outside who’s got ball outside green takes the three dor grabs the miss the Thunder have gotten seven of 10 attempts to drop in the second quarter what’s something

That stuck out to you about Luke G I guess the first thing that pops for meba is how hard he plays the game how willing he is nightly on the defensive end of the floor to take on the opponent’s best scorer to not get down

In the dumps when he scored upon on and to bring the same effort no matter who he’s playing and no matter what he’s up [Applause] against that free throw good from giddy guys we have seen a number of High Caliber players from Australia Josh giddy adding to the reputation of the

Country this guy is long he’s versatile and he’s [Applause] skilled that was misses so he goes one for two Dallas has gotten five of their nine attempts from Deep to go here’s Washington and the shot counts he’s fouled and it’s a chance for a three-point [Applause] play

Mind the legs mind the lanes one shot and that one Falls for Washington I think you have to admire the aggressiveness with which PJ Washington plays every single night Wallace the pass to Giddy Williams from long range and again Oklahoma City no good and so it’s green

Who brings up the ball for the Mavericks they lead by eight biggest lead of the game and here’s donic he picked up 39 in their last R against New York and what a wrecking ball defensively seen by the four steals he had in that game [Applause] and can’t hit the shot but they’re

Saying he got hacked so he’ll head to the line you can see Luca donic has the body the handle the footwork and The Savvy to draw fouls that is nice done shooting two that one’s off Wiggins he’s checked in for Oklahoma City and he’s good on the

Second and so it’s Oklahoma City with it they Trail by nine and the Thunder call time here you know one guy who’s been get to done is LCA donic he’s getting loose and doing work they want to talk this over and find some [Applause] answers [Applause] you [Applause]

All right let used this time to check out the teams with the most steals last year fourth the Thunder and this is a team that takes great pride in being aggressive on the defensive end they take good risk and no when to go after opportunities for [Applause] steals Wallace the pass to

Giddy now here’s Wiggins Pass to Wallace fires the three Nails it from three Wallace has gotten himself on the board with a three there such a reliable threat from rign you’d think the defense might key on him a little bit more goes up on the wing bage with the

Bucket and the Mavericks lead by eight well they’re calling his number time and time again and he is Del delivery Wallace the pass to Wiggins outside Giddy and Josh giddy is going to pick up the foul that’s foul number two for him this game will get even further away

From them if they can’t protect the ball hardways checked in for Luca Donic now here’s Irving the D’s right on him over hren hren with the block oh that’s a big time rejection from Chad holen making his defensive presence felt giddy passes to Wiggins outside Williams here’s Wallace six on the shot clock and it’s giddy missing Washington against

Giddy on the wing Irving he’s got nine oh hits the outside fadea away Irving’s got 11 oh guys there are not many strokes more pure than that of Kyrie iring time now to hear from our reporter Ally leforce hey Brian the Thunder making dramatic Improvement shis Alexander now in Allstar says they’re

Gaining confidence he said quote we know we’re getting better I think guys are kind of getting addicted to that feeling and continuing to grow Brian they could be building something really special here yeah you’re right they could skipping no Steps either thanks Al back to green pass to Hardaway the three and

Good coming on the assist by Irving he’s got 13 you know building up confidence as a game goes on hit one from behind The Arc in the opening period two here in the second Kitty finds Wiggins to end the run and the basket is good a minute 35 left in the first half

Of this one Irving with it he’s got 11 the shot that one rolls around and rims out right now trying to get into a rhythm but so far this quarter boy he is struggling to make anything go down and it’s kidy missing no idea why he’s attempting so

Many outside guys it’s not his day and he needs to either look to drive or get it to an open teammate back to Washington the shot off that time excellent D there from [Applause] Wiggins Pass to Wallace outside giddy tipped away it’s stolen by Green to the inside on the

Break here’s Wallace and the deficit down inside single digits Wallace has got six in the quarter what a superb move right there the spin shakes off any attempt that defense here’s Gafford H with the [Applause] block pass to Wallace the ball’s knocked loose it’s Goen by Washington outside Hardaway and here is

Irving three-pointer O Williams with the block and that’ll be Dallas’s ball as it goes out of bounds Mavericks able to keep the possession outside Hardway well the ability to be disruptive with your length Josh giddy digging down defensively oh what a performance by Luca donic he has been the story for

Dallas 27 on the night he’s had it his way well now a minute to check in with Ali leforce she’s Courtside hey allly I’m here with PJ Washington PJ will be the key for you guys defensively in the second half uh not letting them get easy routes

Williams that’s going up against a defense that knows your Tendencies gilis Alexander passes to hren and it’s good fought through contact hit the shot and will go to the line all right guys what do you think so far about the offensive approach for the Mavericks well you love their unselfish

Play keeping that ball moving good shot to great that’s winning basketball and the other thing guys credit their game plan they’ve been getting the looks they want and they are executing at a high level and the Thunder making a change here Joe’s checked in [Applause] The Mavericks have gone eight of 12 from the floor in the third quarter pass to donic it’s deflected but ludor has more than earned his reputation as a defensive stopper twice on the pipes hren with it he’s guarded by Irving with a nine-footer the Mavericks Pull It in gafford’s got six rebounds in

The game outside Irving Williams against donic carries it down low donic has got 46 let’s remember Luca 67 230 so this guy lethal around the hoop pass to Joe jacks up with three Mavericks with a rebound they led by as many as 18 CA passes to Irving unloads from 13 Williams grabs

The board I think he’s gone completely dry nothing is hitting and this is where you hope that he can find something easy so he can see the ball go through the net it’s stolen by donic here’s Joe shoots the Thunder with another [Applause] Miss green with the ball and it’s giddy

Picking him up and a miss there on the triple and Williams has got the ball here for the Oklahoma City Thunder it’s a 14-point game an interesting note on jayen Williams he was the first Santa clir player drafted in 26 years ba we know who that player you’re talking

About is obviously Steve Nash was selected out of Santa Clara back back in 1996 that one worked out pretty well I think Jaylen Williams will be special as well and Dallas calls time [Applause] here [Applause] [Applause] Jones he’s checked in for the Mavericks Dallas has gotten two of four threes to

Fall here in this third quarter donic against Williams Jones oh a beautiful feed leads to a Monster Jam well the playmaking skills of Luca donic are truly extraordinary so young so good pass to [Applause] hren come on man hey right here five to shoot that one rolls around and rims out

The Mavericks on offense 16-point lead from Deep here’s donic and it’s kidy with a rebound Oklahoma City has gone one of four here in the third from range home with a screen on donic giddy into the lane and he’ll draw the foul he’ll head to the line for two that’s

What Josh giddy wants to do put pressure on you with his dribble Drive ability that’s nicely done shooting two and he makes a first pal he’s checked in for the Mavericks Hardy comes in for Don Williams is checked in for Oklahoma City he makes one and two that

Time and for Dallas they’re shooting it well almost 50% from the floor outside green pass to Hardy fires the three drills it from Deep hard’s got eight well the defense daring him to shoot and he makes them pay for their disrespect Irving against giddy here’s Joe there’s the

Triple now pulls it in no matter what he’s tried it hasn’t worked unfortunately the team is suffering from that here’s Hardy give him eight points now left side Jones and stolen by HR going all the way to the rack and they’re going to count that bucket and they’ll send them to the line

It could be a three-point play well I’m telling you this guy is doing everything he can to get them where they want to be he’s been on a mission in this period and the Mavericks with some changes Morris he’s checked in for pal and Hardaway subbed in for green one shot [Applause]

Dallas has gotten three of six threes to fall in the third quarter Irving the pass to Hardaway corus outside back to Hardaway the three is up the Thunder with the rebound Williams passes to Joe holgren against Jones hren with a screen on Irving he shoots it and the jumper is

Good give him eight not putting his head down he continues to produce with the team trailing pass to Morris top of the key rebound by Wiggins it’s been an ugly quarter for him trying to shoot his way out of it might be time to work on the playmaking

Skills Wallace the pass to Joe now holgren defended by Jones that one drops for him hr’s got 13 points here in the second half alone it’s obvious he’s taken it upon himself to try and keep them alive oh they get a hand on it Irving finds hardwin Morris for three the Thunder

Pull It in H’s got 15 rebounds here tonight Williams passes to holgren [Applause] here’s Wallace give him eight points now no good on the three here’s Hardy on the money from 12 ft away hard’s got 10 points in the game and the thunder in possession here trailing by

Wallace pass to holgren over Morris and that one’s good hren hr’s got 25 points and this is why so many are high on home his ability to dominate games with his scoring and so it’s the Dallas Mavericks in command with a 13-point lead at the end of the

Quarter and they’ve racked up a ton of turnovers back to the game after this [Applause] [Applause] Break and now we have a moment to reveal our State Farm assist of the game and the winner today coming from an unlikely position it’s the big fell with the sweetest pass of the day but we have some Elite passing big men in the NBA and you love that skill [Applause]

Wow and one quarter to go in a game that to this point has not been an evenly fought contest and Oklahoma City looking at who they’ve got to start the fourth Chad holgren out there with kenri Williams then it’s Shay gilis Alexander and it’s

Wallace in at the two a chance to get a quick injury report thanks I just now talked with Dallas’s athletic trainer unfortunately the injury looks pretty serious and for a team with eyes on a championship this injury could have serious implications we will see how it affects them okay thanks for the update

Good to get that information now we know how things are coming along gr that’s true it’s the uncertainty factor with injuries that can be so hard to handle there’s no question because even if you know what’s wrong individuals have different healing times the time frames can be totally different for similar [Applause]

Injuries East Side three and he hits the first of [Applause] three and the second free throw is good and he makes all three here’s [Applause] donic pass to Hardy the three Hardway the Thunder Pull It in ooh anticipated the pass it’s a turnover here’s

Donic oh and he got fouled on his way up he’ll head to the line to shoot two the understated part of Luca Don’s game his strength he is going to draw contact and usually make it that free throw [Applause] misses good on the second one a little over a minute of the fourth

Quarter gone now here’s Wallace fires from Deep drops in the three Wallace has got six here in the quarter I’ll tell you you are playing with fire any time you leave this guy open and they just got [Applause] burned that’s good from donic d hits them both in the second

Half their free throw percentage has improved hitting in the low 80s [Applause] now oh a clear foul there on the Miss shot so he’ll get a pair at the line that one on donic I like that I mean some physical play inside he’s not about to give up any easy baskets shooting

Ke that free throw good from guilis Alexander and the Thunder making a change here he’s off on the second Dallas has gone 0 for two from outside here in the fourth quarter we just over a minute and a half now into the fourth offensive rebound donic outside and they doubled up donic and

There’s a whistle that’ll belong to shake guilis Alexander that’s his fourth foul of the contest and that pushed him just one foul from the [Applause] bonus pass to Hardy the three ball pure from three-point range and the Mavericks lead by 12 listen even average three-point Shooters

Are going to make that shot defense must be better here’s Guild is Alexander ooh plenty of contact on that shot officials call the foul and he’ll take two free throws [Applause] Take a break take a break two shots that free throw good from guilis Alexander greens checked in for Hardy [Applause] both free throws good from guilis Alexander for Dallas they’ve gone one of four since the fourth quarter began a little mid-range shot is up he got it again

Sensational and that gives him 51 making it look easy outside gilgas Alexander sinks the trade gilgas Alexander’s got 26 points well gilgas Alexander becoming more and more reliable as a jump shooter with everything Elson is being look out now here’s Jones and here is green here’s donic oh

Connects again and he’s been dominant so far in this one shouldering the offense really taking it to the opposition Williams a screen on donic just Alexander from outside it’s rebounded by kba ca’s got nine rebounds now I’m watching the line there it’ll be a backourt violation he’s really taking

Care of the ball that’s just his first turnover of the Night Gil just Alexander with a ball over donic Gil just Alexander no good Dallas is gone one for three in the fourth quarter from range pass to Jones here in the fourth quarter just under two and a half gone by outside Hardaway launches it another three for Dallas that’s been typical of their

Performance perance today they’re sharing the ball and creating good shots and here is Williams ooh he took a hard foul on the shot so he’ll head to the line to shoot a pair back in 2020 you were in the Orlando bubble doors called the NBA Finals what was that experience like it

Was the most unusual circumstance I’ve ever been put in in the game of basketball I hate the idea that people call the quote bubble title please know that that was grueling to have been away from your family for several months at a time in the most unusual of

Circumstances but here’s what I know unequivocally I hope we never go back [Applause] and so he’s able to get one of two for Dallas they’ve gone four of seven from the field in the fourth quarter CBA passes to donic donic is double hard away on the

Wing and the three off Target at this point I’m not sure if it’s the play calling or the player himself and the basket by Joe well after netting one in the first half that’s the second deep ball to go down for this guy donic passes to green with the floater good that’s

Another bucket and he’s nearing the single game franchise scoring record absolutely on fire already a night to remember and approaching some history and there’s the call it’s going to be an illegal screen since halftime either they’ve gotten sloppier or the defense has turned [Applause] up and so it’s green who brings up the

Ball for the [Applause] Mavs now here’s donic hard away on the wing Fires for three counted that’s his seventh basket of the game in 14 tries and they keep attacking from the three-point range here in the second half gilis Alexander against donic Williams is screen on donic here’s gilis Alexander oh and he

Nails it from the high post gilis Alexander’s got 28 and if you’re guarding SGA in the pick and roll boy stop the ball because otherwise sh’s going to get to where he wants to go and Dallas calls time [Applause] here [Applause] [Applause] [Applause] body [Applause] [Applause] and the Mavericks with some changes Gafford comes in for Jones and Irving is subbed in for Hardaway all right let’s check in with Alli leforce hey guys I was able to catch the message that Jason kid was giving to his team he said keep

It going guys ride this wave of momentum we’re playing great right now but we can’t let up guys back to you and allly [Applause] thanks Feel [Applause] green the pass to Irving and Josh giddy is going to pick up the foul that’s his third foul so far out to the wing and here’s Green from the ark and the rebound goes to the Thunder Williams has got his seventh rebound of the game with that last one outside

Giddy donic pulls down the board donic has got six rebounds in the game green finds Gafford donic is double back to Gafford pass to Green six to shoot back to donic K just Alexander with a rebound Oklahoma City has gotten three threes to fall out of four attempts here on the

Fourth holr with a screen on donic here’s [Applause] hren outside giddy over green and it’s giddy missing the Mavericks have gotten six of 12 shots to go here in this fourth Quarter now donic to the middle outside for Irving oh my came close to a four-point play he’ll head to the line for three free throws it’s going to go on Shay gilis Alexander that free throw good from Irving at just about 85% from the line tonight they’ve looked more more comfortable as the

Game’s gone on and the Mavericks making a change here Washington’s checked In and the second free throw is good what you can’t help but notice this half is how lights out they’ve been from the free throw line [Applause] the last one’s off they’ll settle for two the neat thing about Kyrie Irving is you get style and substance this guy

Such a fluid player makes the game look effortless now here’s giddy outside Williams the shot’s good on the assist by giddy giddy’s got four assists in the game what a beautiful stroke from range defensively you’ve got to try to take him out of his comfort zone Washington

Outside here’s donic and no good trying to use the glass and it’s D with a ball for OKC up up here’s Williams and it’s Irving with a rebound Dallas has gone three of seven from the perimeter during the [Applause] fourth Gil just Alexander against donic here’s Irving again the Miss by the

Mavericks the Thunder have got five out of 10 shots to drop here in the final quarter D [Applause] outside releases and off the left side of the rim it swirls in for him well L Dort expanding his skill set now able to run pick and roll action go ahead and dictate some offense

L outside [Applause] Irving on The Mark with the 15-footer Irving’s got four points this quarter and just totally Relentless only increasing the intensity level one thing I enjoy is watching players who don’t pay attention to the score you lock in on the moment and play the right way now

Here’s gilges Alexander back to Williams had a chance there to cut it to single but it’s off Target the officials were right on top of that one and the first one at the line is [Applause] good and both free throws good for [Applause] green Oklahoma City has gone four of six

From Deep thus far in the fourth Gil just Alexander passes to holgren [Applause] com tries a 10-footer and they pick up two hr’s got 27 points you’re seeing everything on display for chat homr he understands angles he’s smart he’s got good hands he can shoot it what a night

And it’s Washington missing I’ll tell you even though he’s not playing his best basketball the team has played well and picked Pi it up I love it hren with a screen on donic down low stolen by Gafford donic against Dort releases from 15 the Thunder with the rebound giddy’s got four rebounds

Now Gil just Alexander double team 18 ft [Applause] out pass to homr out outside guilis Alexander and here’s giddy launches a three that one’s good and so gilis Alexander with the assist gilis Alexander got seven assists in the game here’s donic over D again the Miss by the

Mavericks the Thunder have gotten eight of 15 during the fourth quarter Kitty with it checked by Washington Williams misses they’ve got time on their side here Grant and if they’re smart they’ll milk the clock a little green finds Washington Irving for three gets the three to fall and the Mavericks lead by

12 well we know Kyrie is one of the outstanding shot takers and makers in this league and the Thunder call time here they’re trailing by 12 we’ve got a minute 48 left in the fourth quarter here hogri with a screen on donic K just Alexander from outside Gafford grabs the

Miss gafford’s got nine rebounds in the game boy he’s getting it done here’s Washington and it’s kidy with a rebound kid’s got five rebounds tonight H to the screen on Washington Pass to gilis Alexander up over donic and there’s gilis is Alexander on the assist from giddy giddy’s got his fifth

Assist in this one donic on the wing Dort defending outside Irving and the Mavericks another three they have a Relentless mentality even with the game in total control this is a textbook example of playing The Possession and not the score this team is doing a great job continuing to

Execute now here’s gilgas Alexander Washington grabs the Miss 56 seconds left in the game Bing a miracle comeback this one is wrapped up they were able to control the tempo and flow of the game and it will end in a victory for the mavers loved how much

They moved the ball out there tonight yeah no one got left out this was a real team effort and so this win marks their first victory of the new year and this is an even matchup one to one on the season series with two left to play and

As it was happening as it was building you knew this was a monster game for Luca donic what a Relentless scoring night for this guy in attack mode all evening so it’s the Mavericks now following the bucket by the Thunder left side giddy over Washington and that one’s good gidy unfortunately

For them they’re still going to come up short you wish they shown this kind of fight earlier no doubt it felt like they were a little tight for much of the evening now they’re in a better flow but it may be too little too [Applause] late and here’s

Donic and so Dallas takes this one by a big margin this one was a fun one to watch they were clearly in the driver’s seat down the stretch they really were ba they played with great intensity on both ends of the floor and they didn’t allow their mistakes to get the better
