I think majority here is rooting for the Mavs to win, it's not that we don't like OKC or SGA, they are a good team, they are the number 1 seed in the West, but I felt that it's not their time to shine, not yet. On the other hand, the Mavs with Luka as putting up a good series against them and the whole team are putting effort for them to win this series against the inexperience OKC. And it also shows their defense as well, with their new acquisition in the trade deadline, anchoring everything with Gafford and PJ Washington. So now the next game will be at Dallas homecourt, one of the loudest arena, it will be crazy if they are going to beat the Thunder.

I think the Mavericks and I'm rooting for them to win because they have the better experience than the OKC. though it's not over yet but it's likely that they'll advance since we are not seeing new from the OKC, it's all SGA and eventually this guy will feel the fatigued, so I think his production will drop. In a do or die game and the Mavs want to finish the series, expect a more physical game, but thus far, OKC can't match the physicality of the Mavericks so that's a big factor why I believe Dallas will finish them in 6.

The Mavs are going to be the favorite entering game 6 and their fans are hoping that they are going to close out the Thunder, but let's see. The other West series has been extended to game 7 by the Wolves. And who knows, the pattern might continue and we will also another classic game 7 between OKC and Mavs. Going back to the Nuggets vs Wolves, ANT delivered what he had promised to his fans but the series is not yet over. Now it's a do or die game, the season is on the line for them and they will have to go to the Nuggets homecourt to beat the defending champ. If they are going to play with the defense that they shown here, they have a good chance to win and advance.

Mavs needs to push and win the game at home, they need to take the advantage of playing in front of their home crow if they win the game they will have that early rest advantage againts the winner between the Wolves and Nuggets, though OKC also bringing the tough fight and not giving them the luxury of dominating the series.

I like the way Wolves adjusted and bring that tough games agaisnt the defending champ, if they can duplicate the way they played today, the chance of snatching this series may take place.

More on how these both teams will play their final game it will be an interesting final game 7.

The Mavs vs OKC series is still unpredictable, if I'm not mistaken, both have steals in each other home court so maybe OKC can do it again in the next game to push for a decider game 7 which I think the fans will love. And remember that OKC is the number 1 team in the West so they will not easily go down in this fight. What's scary though is the Kyrie has been quiet in this series, and maybe he will suddenly explode in the next game to help the Mavs finished the Thunder. On the other hand, SGA needs help and for sure Giddey and Chet and the Williams will have to say something as they don't want this to be their final game this season. At least force a game 7 and it will be their homecourt.
