Last night's NBA court staged a-for-needle matchup against Maimang, and the battle between the Mavericks and the Clippers was simply more tortuous than a soap opera! At the final whistle, the Mavericks narrowly defeated the Clippers 96-93 to tie the overall score at 1-1. There are so many highlights of this game that you could write a novel, and the main characters are, of course, Doncic and Harden.
As soon as the game started, Doncic was like a general who gave orders, leading the Mavericks players to quickly get into the groove. Not only did he score on his own, but he also assisted on his teammates, scoring 32 points and contributing six rebounds and nine assists next to him. Doncic's performance is simply at the level of MVP, and it is completely the kind of domineering "give me the ball and I can win".
On the other hand, the Clippers are not vegetarians, and Harden is also on fire, scoring 22 points and scoring 8 assists and 6 rebounds. Especially in the last moments of the game, Harden's step-back jumper shot was as accurate as a needle, steady. But in the end, it was the Mavericks' defense that did a good job, and they launched a 17-3 attack wave in the most critical final quarter of the game, which was simply suffocating, and the Clippers were forced to retreat.
Talk about the performances of Owen and Leonard. Irving was also brave today, scoring 23 points in the game, looking at his light pace on the court, as if he was shuttling freely between the opponent's defenses, and from time to time he made a wonderful pass or breakthrough, which was really emotional. Although Leonard only scored 15 points, those 4 steals and 7 rebounds, defense and fast break at key moments, every move is crucial, the real key man.
Washington couldn't ignore the fact that although he didn't score much, the two big hats were like saying, "You're not welcome here!" and the defensive performance was a barrier. The audience on the field watched with enthusiasm, and the players on the field fought to the end, not missing any opportunity in every round.
Every highlight moment in the game is worth remembering, such as Zubac's domineering dunk, and Mann's rebound, the Mavericks' counterattack is like a hanging, taking away the game in waves. And Doncic's wonderful pass in the game is addictive, he is not only a scoring machine, but also the brain and commander of the team.
In this game, both the Clippers and the Mavericks showed their respective tenacity and perseverance, which cheered all the spectators. Now that the series is tied 1-1, the next game will definitely be more exciting, and both sides may stage a comeback drama, so let's wait and see. In any case, such a game is really exciting, and it can only be said that in the NBA, every night has the potential to stage a legend!
