Paul Pierce issues stern warning to Thunder as series shifts to Dallas

On Thursday evening, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and the Oklahoma City Thunder dropped their first game of the NBA playoffs with a frustrating home loss to Luka Doncic and the Dallas Mavericks in Game 2 of their second round series. Although Gilgeous-Alexander had arguably his best game of the playoffs so far, the MVP runner up's Thunder teammates largely let him down in this one, as Oklahoma City had a rough shooting game from beyond the three-point line when compared to Dallas, who was red hot for most of the night from the land beyond. The series now shifts to Dallas with the Mavericks holding home court advantage, and one person who is a tad worried for how the Thunder will react to that hostile road environment is former Boston Celtics NBA champion Paul Pierce, who recently took to FS1's Undisputed to relay his concerns.
