The guys the Mavs traded for have been good but the guy they didn’t trade (THJ) may have just cost them this game.
 
Was it Chuck or Dray that said the capybara was ugly? Better have been Dray.
 
Dray said Dallas looks like the champion to him, because of Luka and Kyrie mentioning that Kyrie does always good things at the end. Didn't go as planned though this time.
Ok, but did you see the baby capybara?

Nope, was watching via a local (Indonesian) channel and not everything was shown from the original broadcast.

As for the match itself it had so many similarities with games that Kings lost this season (losing a considerable lead, meltdown in 2nd half, stopped making 3 pointers after a good first half, missing tons of free throws) that was painful to watch even though I preferred Thunder to win to extend the series for at least 2 more matches.

During the 1st half when Thunder couldn't hit a 3 pointer and whenever they attacked the basket they were getting blocked the whole time, I thought Dallas would win by 20+ points and gain huge psychological advance to finish the series in the 5th match in Oklahoma later on. But I was wrong obviously...

Btw in the conference semifinals , apart from Celtics that are up 3-1, all other 3 series are tied 2-2 and in the 16 matches that have been played the home side got the win just 7 times. During the play ins, the hosts won 5/6 matches and during the 1st round 28/43.

Yeah I didn't like the idea of Mavs going up 3-1 but I also am not rooting for OKC to win it all in their first year "good". That's ok though because I have whoever wins the other series going up against the East team. Probably the Celtics but I could see NYK and that 'nova chemistry getting past Boston.

Anyways I love capybaras, they closed the night with some rodents from a local zoo or something. I think Chuck called it ugly but I am hoping it was Dray because I mostly like Chuck and Dray can kick rocks. Dray was also complaining that they were not talking about basketball at 12:55am eastern time.
 
This announcing team is so miserable. No defending champ has made it past the second round in 5 years? Oh that means Denver is trying to "break ground." Thanks guys, super insightful.
