Brunson topped the takeaways while looking like an All-Star

Josh Green looked like the proverbial deer in a headlight during the first two games of the Dallas Mavericks’ first-round

playoff series against the Utah Jazz. But that all changed Thursday when the Mavs won Game 3, 126-118.

Not only was Green helping set the tempo with his offense. He also was a major pest for the Jazz on the defensive end of the floor.

In the first half Thursday, Green contributed 10 points, six assists and two steals in 11 minutes as the Mavs led, 68-51, at intermission. Overall, Green wound up with 12 points, three rebounds, six assists and two steals in 19 minutes.
