The one matter they didn't want to happen. Jason Kidd claiming fourth dimension. – five:56 PM

Williams needed to stay home there. Brownish had Doncic just fine on his own. The double by Rob opened up that Dinwiddie triple. – 5:53 PM

Callie Caplan @CallieCaplan

After blitzing Doncic most of the game, the Celtics are now switching and daring him to beat out them 1-on-i. He's not 100%, so it's working and so far – 5:50 PM

Keith Smith @KeithSmithNBA
Rob back in for Pritchard. For now, Celtics closing with their starting group. Wouldn't exist surprised if White comes back on eventually for some additional perimeter defence force. – five:49 PM

David Thorpe @coachthorpe
My dad and I had season tickets to the Bucs games when Montana and and so Young were the QBs and Rice was their WR. Every single down we held our breath. It was incredibly scary, and our defence force was typically elite so. That's how it must feel against Luka in 4th qtrs. – v:48 PM

Keith Smith @KeithSmithNBA
Celtics are now throwing different looks at Luka Doncic. They had been switching, and then hard doubles, now they are fighting through, while nonetheless mixing in switching and the occasional double. That's your all-time bet against him. Hope to proceed him a little off-balance equally to coverages. – 5:46 PM

Nate Duncan @NateDuncanNBA
Simple offense for the Mavs with Luka being trapped. PnR right at the kickoff of the possession, sideslip information technology to Kleber, he gets it to one of the other guards to make a play – 5:44 PM

Eddie Sefko @ESefko
Don't underestimate the importance of that Dinwiddie 3-pointer at the buzzer. Being down ix (47-38) is a huge upgrade than being down by a dozen. Jayson Tatum took charge in that 2d quarter, Mavs shot just 35.seven percentage and were outrebounded 30-nineteen. – four:41 PM

Keith Smith @KeithSmithNBA
Josh Green is another expert case of why yous can't surrender on guys too early. Had a actually, really crude rookie season. This yr, he's get a cardinal rotation player for Dallas. – 4:36 PM

Awesome sequence for Nic Claxton. Picks up Barrett on the perimeter and forces a miss. Hits a tough jump hook over Robinson. So comes up with a steal on the next possession. He did a skilful chore earlier in the year checking Trae, and Luka. Solid effort on Embiid last game. – 1:52 PM
