Dallas Mavericks make history after false start at LA Clippers: “The people judged us”

by

The Dallas Mavericks have made an exclamation mark with a 51-point win (124: 73) at the LA Clippers. The Texans set an NBA record and give the right answer after two bankruptcies at the beginning.

The Clippers and Mavs are developing a bit of a rivalry, not least because the playoff series was fiercely contested a few months ago (4-2 Clippers) and Luka Doncic in particular was repeatedly attacked by the Californians. The Mavs’ 43-point debacle in Game 5 should have haunted the Texans before that game on Sunday noon local time – and they provided the correct answer.

Dallas 77, Los Angeles 27 – you had to rub your eyes in amazement at the scoreboard, even if you knew beforehand that superstar Kawhi Leonard was absent because of a mouth injury he sustained in the game against the Denver Nuggets.

“We definitely still had that in the back of our heads,” said Tim Hardaway Jr., confirming that the wounds from Game 5 were still fresh. The answer was all the more impressive when you consider that Dallas faced a complete false start after defeats in Phoenix and the Lakers.

Instead, the guests led the break with 50 points, which was a new NBA record. The Golden State Warriors had previously led by 47 points in a game against the Sacramento Kings in November 1991. The only current Mavs players born then are James Johnson, Boban Marjanovic and Dwight Powell, although it is doubtful that they will remember.

In the end it was the second-highest victory in franchise history, only in November 2014 the fueling Philadelphia 76ers were beaten higher (53 points difference). “We showed who we are,” said Doncic, who had 24 points, 9 rebounds and 8 assists in just 26 minutes. “People judged us for the first two games, but it’s been a long season. We have to play defense, that’s our focus.”

For this, Josh Richardson was brought in in the offseason, who came from Philadelphia via Trade for Seth Curry. Defensively, the guard already showed in Phoenix that he can be of help, now he was also convincing in attack. With 13 points in the first quarter, he and Doncic were the first Mavs duo in over 20 years to score 13 points each in the first quarter.
