With a 50-point win, the Mavericks ruthlessly cut 40 10 11 and chased Harden for glory
Utah. After a season of frenzy, the Dallas Lone Wolves now look to have found their form. Losing to the Grizzlies and Thunder in a row, the current Mavericks are already ranked 6th in the East, and their defensive ability is also ranked last in the league, and in terms of offense, they are only ranked 7th. Without the back line, it is unlikely that he will win the championship by attacking alone, and I think Owen himself knows this. However, with a three-person squad like a lone wolf, anything is possible.
This time, the Mavericks face the Utah Jazz, who will face them on their home court. Utah this season is likely to lose, Markkanen and Clarkson are both injured, they have no hope of winning the championship, and with Irving and Doncic leading them, they have no chance at all.
Doncic is making history again.
At the beginning of the first quarter, the Mavericks were in a big way, Doncic shot 6 of 8, 4 of 5 three-pointers, 16 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assists, and was invincible;Irving scored 11 points, two rebounds, and two assists on 5-of-5 free throws, and the combination of these two core players allowed the Mavericks to score 40 points in a quarter, while the Jazz scored 29 points. When he came back in the second quarter, Doncic was still in peak condition, he made four of nine free throws, and scored a triple-double of 29 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists in the half, becoming the first 25+ triple-double in NBA history.
Under Doncic's leadership, in the second quarter, the Mavericks scored 34 points, and Utah scored only 22 points. In this way, after halftime, the lone wolf had a 74-51 advantage, a score of 23 points higher. Irving also made four of six free throws, scored 10 points, 1 rebound, 1 assist, 1 block, 1 turnover, 1 turnover, 1 turnover, Irving also made seven shots and scored 35 points, while the Jazz scored 23 points, Sexton 5 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists, Dunn 5 points, 3 rebounds and 1 assist, this is a very talented team, and finally the lone wolf pulled the difference to 35.
With such a big gap, there is no need for Doncic or Irving to play, but the lone wolf is still widening the gap. Hardaway Jr., partnered Curry Jr., who led the team to a 52-point lead. In the end, Dallas swept the Utah Jazz 147-97 single-handedly to score 50 points, which was a great victory to remember.
Critical Hit 40+10+11
Doncic finished with 60 points, 10 rebounds and 11 assists, surpassing Larry Bird for ninth all-time, while Harden now has 74 triple-doubles, his sixth triple-double, and if it weren't for him, he would likely have surpassed Harden.
