Johnson having a game for the Nets, Dallas still lead though. Getting easy opportunities at the rim and void of turnovers. Doncic hits a lucky 3 off the backboard to end the half, Dallas up 12. Brooklyn fail to make much headway in the 3rd. Durant and Mills get going in the 4th though and Porzingis goes cold for the Mavs. Actually Dallas as a whole fall apart in the 4th really, managing just 13 points. Missing three consecutive 3-point attempts on the last play and gifting Brooklyn the victory. The Nets shot better from the field and 3, Dallas just 20% from there. Dallas had only 4 turnovers for the entire game, along with more production at the line. The Nets +11 on the boards and took care of the ball. Harden with a complete game and almost a triple-double, an efficient 23 points, 12 assists, 9 boards. Johnson 5 of 7 from the field off the bench, including two 3's. Durant 24 points. Doncic for the Mavs, 28 points, 9 assists, 6 boards, with just 1 turnover. Finney-Smith 3 steals and four 3's. Love the Barkley and co segments.
