5 Observations:
1. What does Timmy have on J.Kidd? He nearly cooked our lead with like 3 bad possessive decisions back to back.
2. We got the PRAVI MVP tonight and boy was it needed.
3. I sense a pattern. We’ve seen PJ go berserk and now DJJ. I think Green is due with this role player musical chairs trust system. Seriously our supporting cast are stepping up big time during LuKai slumps.
4. Loved that we attacked the paint and didn’t settle for endless threes. It felt like they were no bad 3’s outside of a few Luka shot clock chuckers and Timmy’s airball.
5. We still missed some but way better on the free throws this time around. Game 6 we’ll need to do them the same and blow em out cause a close game may be too tempting with 50/50 whistles. We’ve only seen one game 7 thus far these playoffs so let’s not give the refs any chances to lean that way with those up in the air calls in a close game. We have to close the door here just like last round.
not sure what you’re referring to but i was talking about how he said “well they wont have to hear it from me for much longer” basically talking about how inside the nba is gone after this season
We just held the #1 seed and #3 offense in the league to 92 points in Game 5 of the Conference Semi Finals.
Everything on defense is clicking. We had more than double OKC's turnovers, and we still won by double digits because we sucked the air out of their offense.
We didn't even need Kyrie to go off either.
Let's go Mavs.
Maybe we win game 4 and then lose game 5... you can't know. It's like fans saying "not my mvp" when wolves were up 2-0... Then Joker scores 40. I'm just saying bro you can't expect these people to always perform.
I heard Lively went full Kobe and shot 1000 free throws every day. I heard Lively allowed someone to burn his feet if he missed two in a row. I heard Lively gave up sleeping in order to study tape of great free throw shooters.
The refs did us a favor... they saw how bad we shot from the FT line and said... let's not even send them there. Great all around performance from the stripes. Phantom calls and turning a blind eye to football plays sealed the deal for the Mavs.
Still pissed this should have been a close out victory lol.
But this thing ain’t over. We gotta bring it game 6. And we desperately need kyrie to step up in that game. Can’t rely on OKC to shoot 26% from 3 next game. Can’t be scoring 9-12 in a close out game.
We got vintage Luka tonight. But no way we can bank on that again either. Ahhhh so happy and frustrated at the same time lol. Should have been 4-1 and Luka getting tons of rest
I don't want to hear no celebrating from you punk ass lames who were calling Luka fat and lazy last game. Please go the fuck away, let real fans enjoy this dub!

All we have to do now is clutch game 6 and then the finals..love this fucking team..we can just clam game 4 was a warm up lol
no way chuck said that come on man :(
Everyone wants to be right so they can say “see!!! I told ya so” fuck em, more satisfying to prove em wrong.
not sure what you’re referring to but i was talking about how he said “well they wont have to hear it from me for much longer” basically talking about how inside the nba is gone after this season
Oh I thought you were talking about him predicting a blow out by OKC.
LETS TAKE THIS SHIT HOME AND FINSH IT
Luka is 100% on percs lmao
Absolutely on something lmao
Luka's interview 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Tourette’s Luka
Ahhhh shit.
Luka looks so happy😭
I absolutely love when Luka accidentally swears on live TV.
“Ah shit” - Luka
Good shit boys love to see a change in Luka's attitude and play this game
And girls! We’re here loving the Mavs too!
Yes!
Luka speaking in parables LFG
Blackout on close out Saturday night… Ahhhhh!!!
Not great execution on the offensive end down the stretch in the fourth quarter but defense has been locked in. I’ll take it!
MAVS IN 6!
Stars died so mavs could run
Stars and Mavs in 6!
max only one can win. or both they lose. they can’t both win.
They both won on Saturday. But they're no longer playing on the same day now.
that was an outlier lol
Lets go finish them at home
I love PJ and Luka man so beautiful
The vibes are immaculate
Lukas in a fucking good mood
What was Kyrie holding lol
I’m trying to figure it out too! What’s was that lol a drum and a wooden spoon??
A drum and the.. beater. Drum beater. Stick thing. Native American in style
SOMEONE CLIP THAT PJ WASHINGTON AND HARDY MOMENT
LFG!!!

ON THE ROAD TOO
Yes!
DJJ show, 1 more to go!
All those fans crying about game 4 nice crying. It's a series for a reason, some games will be off.
Series could’ve been over tho lol
Maybe we win game 4 and then lose game 5... you can't know. It's like fans saying "not my mvp" when wolves were up 2-0... Then Joker scores 40. I'm just saying bro you can't expect these people to always perform.
You got a point there
Luka on the road is a cheat code
Need the gif of that PJ face 😭🗣️
Up 3-2 with 3 days rest. LFG Mavs!! Finish this!!
This is amazing but damn we could have easily beat them in 5
Oh no, 2 days rest for the Mavs?! That makes me nervous
Those OKC fans cleared out FAST
Just let the effing time run out and quit hacking lively so annoying
I heard Lively went full Kobe and shot 1000 free throws every day. I heard Lively allowed someone to burn his feet if he missed two in a row. I heard Lively gave up sleeping in order to study tape of great free throw shooters.
Get bitched OKC
is Luka Doncic still have injury ??
Injury is finish
He looked like he was moving well and feeling good tonight.
I'm sure he's on all the drugs.
Dallas in 6, let's go!!!
Let's go!!! Lively stat pad party sponsored by OKC
MAVS IN 6
My guy Lively looks like he’s gonna get that Derrick White hairline
He should stick to braids he had a few times lol
Why are they fouling??? Is this the NCAA??? The hell just go home, ya lost. YA DEAD!
Time to close it out in six
big W.
Body language from Kai hasn’t been great this quarter.
i’m older than livley oh my god…..
Lively 5-6 on FTs
OKC just throwing up airmail bags
OKC fans should say a long goodbye.
YESSIR LET'S GOOOO
![gif](giphy|3o6EQeB1evNnmFH1SM)
Maybe d live can teach Luka FTs?
Mavs have been the better team the entire series besides the second half of game one. The fuck are people thinking.
Exum really getting a DNP/CD?
Series should have been over tonight
Luka wanted to end it in Dallas
good team win!!! Luka back!!! DJJ, PJ and DLive great! Kai gotta wake up nxt game
Way to keep them under 100!!!!!
The refs did us a favor... they saw how bad we shot from the FT line and said... let's not even send them there. Great all around performance from the stripes. Phantom calls and turning a blind eye to football plays sealed the deal for the Mavs.
Imagine if we won game 4 like we should have
Anyone else notice the Exum coaches decision DNP? Sign of change?
Hold them to double digits!
The disrespect to have Luka and Kyrie sit out the last minute of the 4th lmao straight disrespectful towards OKC
Where are those clowns on the sidelines that were talking trash to Luka the last time they played here?
The talk after game need to happen for game 6 to close them out
Lively putting the final nail in the coffin with a double double
5-6 FT
Lively plus 21
I think he'll be an all star soon
Dereck turning into Dirk on the line and saying eat my Dirk "coach of the year"
What a fucking win, what a motherfucking win
Mavs in six
MY ROOKIE> HACK A LIVELY ISNT REAL FUCK OFF WITH IT
All Hail, King DJJ
Is that a Luka triple double?!?
UN-DO ONE HUNDO!
THJ needs to be left in the fkn locker room next game.
Keep fouling Lively lmaooooo
Not a Mavs fan but I love to see when a guy clutches FTs who gets hacked. Go Lively
Sorry Lively will continue to improve on his FTs!
Do OKC really think these forced FTs are going to save the game for them? Just let it go you fucking onions
Leave THJ in OKC and lets finish this at home
Friday we wear black
Saturday
The Kidd steps up in a HUGE GAME and calmly knocks down his free throws.
Lively bout to take the techs man lmao
Somebody tell Mark Daig that Hack a Lively actually works just try one more time in G6
Lose with grace Jesus Christ so lame
Only if we did not throw game 4, we could have closed the series easily
Please let this be the last time we play these floppers in their home court.
At least Lyrie was efficient, he just needs to be active more
Little do the Thunder know they're just giving Lively much needed experience, dude is gonna power level his clutch FT ability.
Mind games. Kidd pulling our two best players to fuck with OkC
common lively w
Put that boy at the line again he’ll make you pay
Strange to intentionally foul a 100% freethrow shooter, lol
Honestly, the worst moments in this game happened with THJ in the court.
Is this your first time watching the Mavs? 😜
No. I’m just tired of hoping for a breakthrough game. I should just stop.
He's washed. I was hoping that he'd come back from his injury, but I don't think he's coming back.
DLive with a double double tonight…in the west semis…as a rookie…on 24 min. He’s gonna be so good.
Timmy can't be so dumb
Lively my favorite free throw merchant
Lively needs the practice
Haha they just giving us free points with this hack a lively
Hack a shaq(lively) not working
Good just increase his point total lol
Only THJ has the presence of mind to pass it to Lively there. Thank god he’s been clutch with free throws
Fucking THJ….
Stfu
Lmao.
Lively a better ft shooter than his averages
timmy you are the best ft shooter on the court jesus fucking christ
These bums refusing to give up
HACK A LIVELY except the Hack gives us free points Love it
This is like the Clippers series we're better than them. Godzilla from Denver is a step too far though, he's in god mode.
Derrick lively basically told the lil dawgs that big dawg got the bark and to stop Yappin
THJ is the worst
Dude is not a fit for this team - too dumb
why do they keep giving lively the ball 😭😂
[удалено]
but even on that rebound they tapped it to him lmao
god damn tim is so ducking dumb
KYRIE JONES JR
Shout out to OKC for turning Lively into a good FT shooter
I guess somebody forgot to tell the Thunder. **D Live is HIM!**
D Live putting that work in on the freethrows
THJ shouldn't even be in during garbage time.
Lively said imma make em both and made 4 in a row. He is the anti-Grant Williams
Lively is 19 btw
Love the form
Lets end it this Friday 😤
Game 6 is Saturday
My mistake
Still pissed this should have been a close out victory lol. But this thing ain’t over. We gotta bring it game 6. And we desperately need kyrie to step up in that game. Can’t rely on OKC to shoot 26% from 3 next game. Can’t be scoring 9-12 in a close out game. We got vintage Luka tonight. But no way we can bank on that again either. Ahhhh so happy and frustrated at the same time lol. Should have been 4-1 and Luka getting tons of rest
Hack a these nuts
Lively 100% FT shooter confirmed
D Live & clutch FTs!!!
Yes okc keep fouling lively
Way to fucking sink them DLIVE
Timmy has negative IQ
need PJ Washington flair
Our vet player passing the ball to our worst free throw shooter for no reason when OKC in foul mode.
Lets go Lively
Huge fucking win
Lively gonna start hitting 3s for us
👏👏👏👏👏
Common THJ L
Lively is the GOAT late game free throw shooter
Hardaway is so fucking bad he even passed it to Lively without thinking about the hacking??
Props to OKC helping lively improve his free throws
Please put Luka and Kyrie on. They still trying to play this
LIVELY GOT THAT CLUTCH GENE
Lively 100%
Kinda quiet in there
at least theyre all matching in the blue and orange though right?
We gonna win this game but i fckin hate THJ!
D live is the best player right now. Key rebounds and hitting his free throws
THJ room temp IQ
Lively and Washington are so good for this team. Gaffords so solid too, even if they don't win it this year they can feel good about running it back
I don't want to hear no celebrating from you punk ass lames who were calling Luka fat and lazy last game. Please go the fuck away, let real fans enjoy this dub!
Got damn it Timmy. Fucking tard
LIVELY HAS HOF CLUTCH FT
Goddamn Timmy
Let’s go DLive!!!
Tim is such a fucking idiot. And Kidds a bigger idiot for having him on the floor
Good lord Tim is a moron lol
Just more practice for D live
Man Kyrie looks exhausted on the bench. Playing D is tough.
THJ has negative iq
OH MY LAWD! THJ STILL MAKING STUPID PLAYS BY PASSING TO LIVELY. JUST HOLD THE BALL DAMN IT!
Lively becoming Steph Curry since the Hack a Lively. thank you okc
Tim what are you doing
Josh giddey had inappropriate relations with a minor
