The Golden State Warriors edge out the Dallas Mavericks 126-117 to take a 2-0 series lead Friday night. Dallas should be getting worried, considering Luka Doncic had 42, 5 and 8 on efficient shooting, Jalen Brunson had 31 points, Reggie Bullock also had 21 and Dallas still lost. It’s not looking good for the Mavericks right now. The Warriors are looking like the favorites to get out of the west and possibly win the finals, with Golden State’s depth of elite scorers this series could get out of hand rather quickly if the Warriors win just one of the two games in Dallas.
Stephen Curry had another good game finishing with 32, 8 and 5 on efficient shooting {52.4% FG, 60% 3PT} and Kevon Looney having a career night with 21 and 12 boards on 71.4% FG the Mavericks have had issues with stopping the Warriors on defense. I think Dallas will make some adjustments to make this more of a closer series but at that point it will be too late for them to make a comeback, Spencer Dinwiddie just isn’t consistent enough to give you the 20 you need on a nightly basis and that’s Dallas’s problem in these playoffs.
