Warriors vs Mavericks

The Golden State Warriors will play against the Dallas Mavericks tonight for Game 2 of the series at 6pm PT in San Francisco.

Fortunately for the Warriors, there was plenty of room for them to improve too, especially on the offensive side of the ball. The Warriors delivered on that as Andrew Wiggins, Kevon Looney, and Draymond Green spearheaded things on the defensive side — each excelling in their specific roles. From hard hedges to exotics zones like a box-and-1, Kerr used it all and overloaded the supercomputer that is the Dallas offense.

If you watched the first 24 minutes of Game 2 between the Golden State Warriors and Dallas Mavericks on Friday night, but turned the game off at halftime, you'd probably be pretty surprised to learn that the Warriors ended up winning, 126-117.

That stat is a testament to coach Kerr, and the guys he has in the locker room. It was the 12th time that the Warriors have come back from a deficit of 15 or larger in the playoffs to win the game since Steve Kerr took over as head coach prior to the 2014-15 season. Even when the Mavericks took a large lead into the halftime locker room, the contest still felt far from over, and that proved to be the case. Overall, Dallas was outscored by 32 points in the paint (62-30) and they were outrebounded 43-30. Unfortunately for Dallas, that duo didn't get much help from the rest of the roster, save for Reggie Bullock who had 21 points. In Game 1, Doncic and Jalen Brunson combined for just 34 points and eight assists. The Warriors were consistently able to get into the paint, and once there they faced little to no resistance at the rim. Luka Doncic did everything that he could for Dallas, as he led the game in both points (42) and assists (eight), but ultimately his production wasn't enough. Plus, no team wants to fall behind by two games in a playoff series. With the win, the Warriors took a 2-0 lead in the series, which will now shift to Dallas for Games 3 and 4.

The NBA Western Conference finals resumed Friday with Game 2 between the Dallas Mavericks and Golden State Warriors from the Chase Center in San Francisco.

Warriors not getting the same offensive production from their secondary players. Monster spot for the rookie. Spencer Dinwiddie has been thoroughly outplayed by Jordan Poole, and Dallas hasn't gotten anything from either Frank Ntilikina or Josh Green. •2h ago Not as efficient as Game 1, but enough to take control of the game. They now have 56 points in the paint compared to the Mavericks' 24. •2h ago •2h ago •2h ago •2h ago And as he said when we spoke at length in the first round against Denver, all he cares about is being able to make an impact like this. Poole also recorded five assists and two steals in Game 2.

Our prediction and best bet for Game 2 of the Western Conference finals, with odds from @Tipico Sportsbook.

Tipico has no influence over nor are any such revenues in any way dependent on or linked to the newsrooms or news coverage. Along with a well-balanced offensive attack, Golden State’s defense smothered Luka Doncic, holding the Dallas star to 20 points in Game 1. Although Golden State’s defense played the leading role in Game 1, each team is still loaded with offensive firepower. The veteran has also played over 21 minutes in all but two playoff games so far.

The Warriors' 19-point comeback was the third-largest in franchise playoff history.

They only had three turnovers, shot 61 percent from the field, and held the Mavericks to six 3-pointers. After a cold shooting night in Game 1, the Mavericks came out on fire and needed less than six minutes to build a double-digit lead. They are now just two wins away from getting back to the NBA Finals for the first time since 2019, and the sixth time in eight seasons.

“Hopefully this is a game that we can kind of put in our back pocket and remember because there’s a good chance we’ll be in this situation again,” Kerr said. “But we understand the impact he has on the game of giving those guys second or third opportunities.” “A lot of the scoring and stuff, we don’t really need us to do. “Playing center for the Warriors, it’s a different type of job from other teams,” Looney said. “They attacked the paint a lot. You can get away with it in the regular season.”
