The Mavs need another break on the road to have a matchpoint for closing the series at home. On the other side, the OKC comes back from Dallas with a big win and a restored home-court edge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dallas Mavericks have lost Game 4 and a perfect chance to drop the Thunder on its knees. It was a tight one, 100-96, but we need to say that the Mavs had everything in their hands in the first half. What happened in the second part of the event? Well, we really can’t explain that. Luka’s focus dropped in crucial moments, missing from the free throw line, and that sums up a lot of things. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
He had a miserable 18 points, which erased his triple-double, with 12 boards and ten assists. We need to add seven turnovers committed. Kyrie was even worse, with only nine points in 41 minutes, 4-for-11 from the field. The only\u00a0ones who had\u00a0decent performances were PJ Washington, who scored 21 points and 12 boards,\u00a0and Derrick Jones Jr., who scored 17 buckets.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
