The thunder impact is fantastic

This game Thunder showed why they were able to defeat the Pelicans, the team's interior disadvantage is very large, but they relied on active scrambling to win more opportunities, this game they won 16 frontcourt boards as a team, and relying on excellent defense, they also limited Doncic and Irving's play very well, Holmgren played well in this game, 8 of 16 shots, 2 of 5 three-pointers got 19 points, 7 rebounds and 4 blocks, although the confrontation was poor, but the defensive awareness was too good, Jay Wei scored 18 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists, the play is also good.

On the bench, Aaron Wiggins' excellent projection punished the opponent's shrinking defense, he shot 5 of 7 from the field, 3 of 4 from three-point range and got 16 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists, although Dort only scored 7 points, but he was responsible for defending Doncic, which limited Luka very well, the impact of this team is fantastic, and judging from this game, they are indeed the team that has a better chance of winning this series.

Alexander, the boss of the team, also played very well, to be honest, in the confrontation at this level in the playoffs, Alexander's whistle was a little too much, 8 of 17 shots, 2 of 4 three-pointers, 11 of 13 free throws, 29 points, 9 rebounds, 9 assists, 1 steal and 2 blocks.

Dual-core do their best

In this game, the Mavericks tried their best on the side of the double core, the opponent's intention is obvious, that is, to empty you an outside pitcher, we are to pinch Irving and Doncic, who holds the ball is to pinch him, in the case of vacancy, Doncic and Irving will inevitably pass the ball to their teammates, but the teammates did not seize the opportunity, but where Hardaway Jr. and Gafford played better, the opponent did not dare to be so unscrupulous.

Doncic shot 6 of 19 from the field, 1 of 8 from three-point range with 19 points, 6 rebounds and 9 assists, Irving got 20 points, 1 rebound and 3 assists from 7 of 14 shots, and Hardaway Jr. got 2 points and 2 rebounds from 0 of 4 three-pointers. Although Gafford had 16 points and 11 rebounds on 5-of-12 shooting, he was too brainless to shoot the ball in many times.

The Mavericks shot 12 of 35 three-point shots in this game, they didn't play actively, they couldn't seize the opportunity, and it was reasonable for them to lose, but what Kidd is best at is adjustment, in the next matchup between the two sides, it depends on how Kidd adjusts, the difference in strength between the two teams is not as big as it seems, and Doncic is a little anxious in the third quarter of this game.
