00:02 - Saturday night was a sold out arena
00:06 to witness game six of the playoff series
00:08 between the Dallas Mavericks and the Oklahoma City Thunder.
00:11 The Mavs closed out the series,
00:13 finishing four and two with a final score of 117 to 116.
00:18 - Definitely feels good to get the series done
00:20 and now we can reflect on it and see
00:24 how we improved as players and as a team
00:26 and as coaching staff and as organization.
00:27 So I'm appreciative of it.
00:29 - The moral of the story is defense wins games.
00:32 The Thunder came out strong with their defensive approach,
00:34 but Mavs' Derek Lively had other plans
00:36 as he led the team with 15 rebounds,
00:39 helping the Mavs finish with a total of 47.
00:42 We spoke to Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving after the game
00:44 and they said, "We're not going back to OKC."
00:48 - We said at the halftime, "We're not going back to OKC."
00:50 So that's what we did.
00:51 We stayed together, as I always say,
00:53 and playing with energy.
00:56 That rebound, that PGA guy, I remember.
00:58 And then I draw and he hit the three.
01:01 It was a huge moment in the game.
01:02 It was a momentum change and it was very, very huge
01:07 at the end of the game.
01:08 - Luka Doncic finished with 29 points,
01:10 10 rebounds, and 10 assists.
01:12 Right behind him was Kyrie Irving,
01:14 who finished with 22 points, two rebounds, and three assists.
01:18 The Dallas Mavericks will advance
01:19 to the Western Conference Finals.
01:21 And for all things Mavs,
01:22 tune in to Channel 15 Spectrum Cable
01:24 Wednesdays and Thursday nights at 11 p.m.
