8:43 tip 97.1 The Eagle

Do the Mavs change up and try to get Kyrie going early? Does Luka use the MVP snub to fuel the fire? Will Mavs rebound and take better care of the ball? All questions to be answered in Game 2. Kevin Gray Jr. pre at 8. 8:43 tip w/Brian Dameris and me 97.1 The Eagle

Mavs had a lousy night. Stars say 'Hold my beer'

Two things Mavs know they have to do in this series: Take care of the ball and dominate the rebounding. That they did neither and were especially poor in the latter (OKC 16 off rebs/25 2nd chance points) were the biggest disappointments of the night

Too many TOs (10 for 11 pts. Too many fouls (13 leading to 22 FTA). Bad defensive rebounding (OKC 10 off rebs/15 2nd chance pts). Only 18 combined pts from Luka and Kyrie (12 & 6 on 4-12 and 2-4 shooting) Add it up... Mavs down 62-53 at half of G1. 2nd half soon 97.1 The Eagle

Mavs starters: Jones, Washington, Gafford, Irving, Doncic
OKC starters: Dort, Williams, Holmgren, Giddey, SGA
8:38 tip 97.1 The Eagle

A reminder that our broadcast on 97.1 The Eagle of all Mavs playoff games, is the only Mavs broadcast. So turn down the TV sound and turn up Brian Dameris and me for road games and Brad Davis and me for home games. You can also hear us tonight on SiriusXM 213 and iHeartRadio app

.@nba is about to make a killing for itself, but likely upset it's fans in the process with the 1-2 punch of streaming and possibly ending local telecasts of any playoff games

I can't begin to tell you how much I love this.
