That was amazing defense ,and it's weird how the refs are reffing completely different from the regular season. I've honestly never seen a game where the Mavs were allowed to play defense like this.

And THJ 6 minutes. You love to see it.

yes there was a stretch where the refs seemed to swallow their whistles and allowed the Mavs to compete on defense. They also managed to swallow their whistle when PJ got bowled over by Russ or when Luka got hacked to death with no call (whichever ref was #24 clearly watching and no call).

The refs also called BS fouls with Harden shooting 3's and kicking his legs out to the side and flopping like it was 2018. (Also ref #24 making that call from the side).
EDIT - looks like he tried that crap in the first quarter too (flop) and the refs didn't call it.

Thankfully some guys stepped up and hit some big shots.

Yea. I am not one to blame refs for losses but that sht was atrocious many times last night. I think Its going to be a theme all series. It will be a huge accomplishment to get to 2nd round.
