3 things from a Dallas Mavericks loss to the Golden State Warriors ... (Mavs Moneyball)

Luka Doncic had 40 points and 11 rebounds. Jalen Brunson put up 20 points and five rebounds. Spencer Dinwiddie chipped in 26 points off the bench. Steph Curry ...

The Mavericks were 6-of-25 from behind the arc in the first half. The Warriors run and cut constantly. They attacked the rim all 48 minutes, outshooting the Mavericks 27-16 at the rim. The Warriors shot 34% from deep, while the Mavericks shot 29%. That Warriors percentage is a little misleading, as they hit some late 3-pointers to improve the number. Things didn’t improve in the second half, and the Mavericks finished the game shooting 13-of-46 on 3-pointers. Golden State struggled from deep almost as much as the Mavericks did. The Mavericks were able to cut into the Warriors lead and went into halftime down 48-47. The Mavericks got more aggressive in the second quarter, led by Spencer Dinwiddie. Dinwiddie probed the paint over and over again, keeping the Mavericks in the game until Doncic returned. The Warriors didn’t come out on fire after halftime, shooting only 2-of-5 from behind the arc in the third quarter. They got as close as five points late in the fourth, but never really threatened to overtake the Warriors. Golden State just outexecuted and outhustled Dallas all night. But the Warriors roared back and went on a 10-0 run, capped by a Curry 3-pointer to take the lead, 43-42. A Doncic 3-pointer at the buzzer cut the margin to just three points.

Up 3-0 in the Western Conference Finals, the Warriors are now just one win away from resurrecting a dynasty that many believe was dead and gone. During the 2019-20 season, the Warriors were without Klay due to a knee injury and Steph only played in five games due to injuries. After the 2017-18 NBA season, the Golden State Warriors had completed one of the most impressive stretches in league history.

Warriors Andrew Wiggins discusses his poster dunk in win vs ... (Golden State of Mind)

Postgame Roundup: See what the Warriors had to say following their win against the Mavericks on Sunday night.

Things are looking good for Golden State’s chances at making the NBA Finals as teams that go up 3-0 have gone on to win the series every single time. While most people were appalled by the thought of Wiggins’ highlight being ruled a foul, Curry put a positive spin on the call: "And we got to see 800 replays because of the challenge. -Head Coach Steve Kerr says Steph Curry never seemed to get tired - his off ball movement on offense, the effort he put in on defense. Appreciate you, Marc. That was nice." It's remarkable to watch him play." The Golden State Warriors are only one win away from the NBA Finals after beating the Dallas Mavericks by a score of 109-100 on Sunday night. "Steph was brilliant tonight... With every playoff win, the team is looking determined to prove him right which he talks about here: Game 2’s star Kevon Looney continues to dominate the glass as he led the team with 12 rebounds, while Draymond Green provided his usual brand of superb defense. I think that’s what we need. It was so good, even Doncic had to commend him for a nice dunk.

How the Warriors took a 3-0 lead over the Mavericks: Western ... (The Athletic)

The Golden State Warriors defeated the Dallas Mavericks 109-100 to take a 3-0 series lead in the Western Conference finals. Steph Curry dropped 31 while ...

The play is under review. The box-and-one zone that Slater correctly identified the Warriors switching to hasn't been terribly effective, and Dallas has simply swung the ball around until it finds an open 3. The energy in the AAC isn't great right now for Dallas fans. Hate to be dramatic about it, but ... hey ... it is what it is. Having worked with Kevin Harlan for years at TNT, one of the great things he does, and just did again, is shout out the people that work behind the scenes on the remote crew for games. Any chance this miracle season continues better start now. Golden State has sucked the life out of this crowd — and there's still 9:32 left in the game. It reminded me: this is why players jump to block 3s after the whistle. Dallas isn't out of this, but right now, that absurd dunk feels like it killed any momentum the Mavericks had to make a comeback. •2h ago •2h ago •2h ago

NBA playoffs 2022 -- These Golden State Warriors aren't ... (ESPN)

The West playoffs have been stocked full of superstars and teams staking their claim on the NBA's future, but the league's most recent dynasty is far from ...

This is my first conference finals in the NBA." The Warriors tend to get stronger as the series wears on, while simultaneously exploiting weaknesses they unearth in their opponents. That is on pace to be their best such differential in any series under coach Steve Kerr -- better than 9.7 points they outscored the Houston Rockets by in the third quarters of the 2018 conference finals. There is one important figure from the Warriors dynasty Green left out of this analysis, of course. Sunday they made 68.8% of their layup and dunks. "It's more of an excitement that we can do it a different way." We left the space because Klay Thompson was out and then he was out again, and Andre [Iguodala] wasn't here. That seven-game series was far closer than this or any of their subsequent conference finals games. The Warriors won, as they did in three out of four Finals' matchups against James, by limiting everyone else. The Milwaukee Bucks won the title last season, while the Warriors were trying to groom their next generation of players to give their core another chance at reaching the biggest stage. But no team or organization have come close to supplanting the Warriors from their dynastic perch. "Toronto beat us, but no one really came and said, 'All right, the Golden State Warriors' time is up.'"

Warriors-Mavericks score, takeaways: Stephen Curry helps lead ... (CBSSports.com)

The Golden State Warriors are one win away from the NBA Finals after beating the Dallas Mavericks 109-100 in Game 3 on Sunday night.

Warriors are just a buzzsaw on both ends of the floor. — x - Dallas Mavericks (@dallasmavs)— x - Dallas Mavericks (@dallasmavs) https://t.co/eIoO4IS4Yx pic.twitter.com/WfhTdML0VU May 23, 2022 my goodness what a dunk But with the Warriors comfortably in the driver's seat right now, it's not too early to start thinking about the next opponent on the calendar. A sweep is imminent on Tuesday folks. Golden State has been dominant through this entire series, and are now one win away from reaching its sixth NBA Finals in eight years. Finney-Smith had just nine points, while Kleber also finished with zero points on 0-5 from the field. When the Mavericks went down 0-2 in the conference semifinals against the Phoenix Suns, they responded with four of their five starters scoring in double figures to grab a Game 3 win. His steady production on both ends of the floor, which also included six offensive rebounds, is part of the reason Dallas is having such a miserable time at trying to guard this Warriors team. Wiggins has been outstanding for Golden State all series long, averaging over 20 points while also drawing the toughest defensive assignment in guarding Doncic on the other end of the floor. Led by a 31-point performance from Stephen Curry, and 27 points from Andrew Wiggins, Golden State once again asserted its dominance over Dallas to take a commanding 3-0 series lead. In fact that's better than any of the dunks we saw during the Dunk Contest at All-Star Weekend earlier this season.

Golden State Warriors vs. Dallas Mavericks picks, odds: Who wins ... (AZCentral.com)

The Golden State Warriors and Dallas Mavericks face off on Tuesday in Dallas in Game 4 of their NBA Playoffs series.

Tom Miller writes: "We have the Warriors (+1) as our best bet in this contest after analyzing all of the key stats and trends for this matchup. The Warriors didn't shoot as well as in the first two games of the series. The Warriors also added 12 more points in the paint. Tipico has no influence over nor are any such revenues in any way dependent on or linked to the newsrooms or news coverage. Therefore, I'll take the Warriors to complete the sweep. Gannett may earn revenue from Tipico for audience referrals to betting services. Again, depth has been a problem for the Mavericks against the Warriors. In Game 3, Steph Curry added 31 points and 11 assists. Despite the Mavericks not turning the ball over much, the Warriors still had more shot attempts from the field. The Mavericks even had other production on the court other than Luka Doncic, with Spencer Dinwiddie and Jalen Brunson adding 20 or more points in the game. The Warriors pick each other up. Golden State is now 3-0 in the series and are currently one win away from making it to another Championship series. Jason Radowitz writes: "The Dallas Mavericks really would've liked to win Game 3.
