What We Saw, What It Felt Like: Mavs-Clippers, Game 4

The start of this one mirrored Game 1, when the Clippers jumped on the Mavericks early, built a huge lead, and shot lights out. Except this time, it was even more extreme thanks to the Clippers' absurd shooting. After hitting 50 percent from three-point range in Game 1, Paul George, James Harden, and the rest of the Clippers crew sank nearly every contested three, finishing with a staggering 62 percent from beyond the arc. The formula was the same: play in-your-face defense, get stops, push the tempo, and wait for Kyrie Irving to explode.
