The second half of Monday’s game was a Murphy’s law type of game for the Dallas Mavericks. In other words, everything that could go wrong went wrong for the Mavs after halftime against the Oklahoma City Thunder.
In all, the Mavs blew a 14-point lead. They missed 11 free throws. They only scored 15 points in the third quarter. And they gave up 35 points in the fourth quarter.
Add all of that up and it equaled to the Thunder upsetting the Mavs, 100-96, to square this best-of-seven Western Conference semifinals series at 2-2.
