00:00 We start in OKC. The Thunder in game five tied in a series at two games apiece in this second round against Dallas. A four and a half point favorite expected to take a three two series lead. But it was the other side of things last night in Oklahoma City. The Mavs go on the road for a second consecutive time in OKC. Dallas wins outright as an underdog.
00:27 One oh four ninety two. The Mavericks triumphant behind a thirty one point triple double from Luka Doncic who said after the game I'm done complaining. I'm just hooping. And that's exactly what he did. Dallas takes a three two series advantage over OKC. One win away from the Western Conference finals. The Thunder one loss away from their season coming to a close.
00:51 Get a little help from your friends here. That's always a key particularly on the road. You take a look at the Dallas Mavericks had what five guys score in double digits. Usually it's been P.J. Washington stepping up. He only had 10 but still chipped in at two of seven from three point range.
01:04 But look at Jones Junior 19 points in that game. Three of five from three point range hitting early. But I always like to say this. We've watched a lot of games that Luka Doncic has played basketball in every single game. I come away impressed like man I never saw him do that before.
01:17 Just the passing the ability to shoot from long range to get to the rim. And it's always fun to see. We watch players like Allen Iverson in the past ultra quick guards there and Fox like yeah I understand why they score. They're just faster than everybody.
01:29 Luka looks like he goes in slow motion but is yet able to get by everybody and anybody that he wants. And also the anomaly been in the series is you come into the playoffs. What is it supposed to be for the Dallas Mavericks.
01:40 Don't you. Dominates along with Kyrie. Hopefully we can get somebody else to step up. Look at Kyrie Irving 12 points last night multiple times this year is alone in single digits. But yet we take a look at that series lead. It's three to Dallas not three to Oklahoma City.
01:53 This is a best of three that started last night with OKC being 33 and eight on their home court the number one overall seed. You're supposed to win that game. Dallas was just the better basketball team because their superstar shine the brightest.
02:06 Now we'll talk about Oklahoma City coming up and what they need to do better. But I was just so impressed by the defense of Dallas and the execution and a triple double by Luka Dodge.
02:14 And.
