Dallas Mavericks Tie Series Against Thunder
Mavericks Dominate Wire-to-Wire for 146-111 Win
Washington Helps Lead Scoring Effort
In a highly anticipated matchup, the Dallas Mavericks and Oklahoma City Thunder faced off in Game 2 of their Western Conference semifinal series. The Mavericks entered the game looking to tie the series after losing Game 1, while the Thunder were hoping to extend their lead.
From the opening tip, the Mavericks took control of the game, leading the Thunder at the end of each quarter. Dallas' star player led the way, dominating the paint and scoring 30 points. He also received valuable scoring help from PJ Washington, who contributed 25 points off the bench.
While the Mavericks shot the ball well, the difference in the game came down to rebounding. The Thunder have struggled to rebound the ball effectively throughout the playoffs, and it continued to be a problem in Game 2. The Mavericks out-rebounded the Thunder 50-32, which gave them multiple opportunities for second-chance points.
With the win, the Mavericks have tied the series at 1-1. Game 3 will take place in Oklahoma City on Friday night.
