All further comment on a game that was more one-sided than a Möbius strip can be found here:
See you for Game 5.
Dallas wins Game 4 122-84 to cut series lead to 3-1
The most ironic stat of the night: Dončić was 0-for-8 from 30-point range. At closer range, he was 12-for-18 for an efficient 29 points, and he looked far more fluid than he has in the last couple of games. Will he be able to keep up that pace in what will surely be a closer encounter in Boston in Game 5?
Tatum got a bunch of points early for Boston, then didn’t see much of the ball the rest of the way while his teammates failed to find their shooting touch.
But the story was on the glass. Dallas outrebounded Boston 52-31. That’s often a telltale stat as to which team is more motivated to put forth the effort. And the Dallas defense also did the job.
“I think our energy was very high,” Dončić says. No kidding?
