I look for Luka Doncic (28.3 PPG) and Kyrie Irving (25.6 PPG) to contribute more than 39 pts combined here in game 2 as they were both off in game 1.

In their six prior games, the duo went for 63, 46, 62, 50, 58, and 59 points. If they can reach somewhere around the 50+ range, game two will be a lot tighter and the Mavs should play much better overall. Dallas shot just 39.3% from the field in game one, and you’d expect that to improve as well.


Let’s take the points with the Mavs.
