The Warriors hosted the Mavs in Game 2 of the West Finals, and this game was full of sequences. After taking a 1-0 lead, the Dubs had to protect the home-court advantage in game 2. The Mavs had defeated the heavily favored Phoenix Suns in round 2 and, considering the same, the Warriors probably had expected the Mavs’ incoming wrath.

The first half belonged to the Mavs. Doncic couldn’t be stopped same with Jalen Brunson and Finney Smith. The Warriors had to come back to protect the advantage, or they would have had a hard time in Dallas. And so they did.
