00:00 the game.
00:03 Last night in Dallas against the Mavericks to even up this
00:06 second round set at two games all. We welcome you back to the
00:10 early line on this Tuesday morning right here all across
00:13 the Spiz Grizz Network. Donny Rightside has had ultimate
00:18 belief in the Oklahoma City Thunder for the entirety of this
00:21 postseason entering this Western Conference semifinal series
00:25 against Dallas that included in game for last night. OKC a very
00:31 slight one one and a half point Road underdog in game number
00:35 four against the Mavs by the time we got the tip last night
00:39 in Dallas only four cents separated these two clubs on the
00:43 money line - 110 for the Mavericks - 106 on the other side
00:47 for the Thunder and because of that second half rally OKC has
00:52 tied this series at two games apiece. Donny OKC was down by
00:57 as many as 14 early in the second half. They rallied a win
01:01 196 outright as an underdog against the Mavericks who had
01:07 a dismal night shooting a dismal night trying to make a free
01:11 throw and it cost the Mavs late this series again tied at two
01:15 games all. Yeah, we talked about this series from last week
01:19 and I know you're a little bit disappointed in me when they
01:20 lost that second game and it was one to one and I said it
01:23 I didn't change my thought process because I still told you
01:25 Oklahoma's going to win this series, but now expectations
01:28 were to change you go on the road. It's not supposed to be
01:30 all right. Let's just pick up an easy winning game three and
01:32 game four. We'll head back home up three to one. I said, you
01:35 know what all they need to do is get a you know push out of
01:38 this basically one one when you go on the road and head back
01:40 and they'll be just fine. I thought they would get a little
01:42 bit nervous last night that 30 to 21st quarter here and then
01:46 down double digits at the break and you said almost 15 points
01:48 by the time we hit the third quarter, but look at that defense
01:51 in the third quarter only 22 points scored by Oklahoma City,
01:53 but they held the Dallas Mavericks only 15 points then
01:56 look at the fourth quarter turned on the Jets on offense
01:59 35 points and held the held Dallas down to 27 points.
02:03 That's a big time win because also what we talked about
02:06 coming into the playoffs for okay say and I'll keep reiterating
02:08 this we weren't trusting them. Maybe they were trusting themselves
02:11 inside the building loved what I saw in round number one,
02:13 but didn't get a lot of credit because of an injured Pelicans
02:15 team. That's what you're supposed to do. Apparently,
02:17 it's just sweep NBA teams. Then you saw game number one.
02:20 We looked really impressive against the Mavericks. Then
02:22 you hit that adversity losing game two and losing game number
02:24 three only to turn it up with down double digits in the second
02:27 half and I brought up shade Gilders Alexander. That's an
02:30 awesome performance playing over 40 minutes not turning the
02:32 basketball over and despite shooting 27 times from the floor
02:36 getting 34 points and also how about your B players home
02:38 grim 40 minutes play but efficient been six of nine from
02:42 the floor five of six from the free throw line one of two
02:44 from three-point range with 18 points. I loved what I saw out
02:47 of OKC yesterday and if you guys out there aren't believing
02:50 like we got to wait to see if they can take on Denver or
02:53 Minnesota. You're missing the train right now. It's a good
02:55 basketball team that you showed you why could have easily
02:58 folded up. I you know what? It's a great season been dropped
03:01 by 20 points in game number four. We'll try to play well
03:03 at home, but we know by game six or seven. We're going to
03:06 be going home. Not the case here. Okay, see back in the
03:09 driver's seat now.
