Mavs Bury Lakers
The Dallas Mavericks have ended the Los Angeles Lakers’ season.
The Los Angles Lakers were swept by the Dallas Mavericks, ending their bid for a 2nd three-peat.
The defending champs were swept out of the playoffs in the second round in thoroughly embarrassing fashion, culminated in a 122-86 demolition job by the Mavs. It was painful and embarrassing for the Lakers, but appropriate credit to the aggressors; while the Lakers disgraced themselves with their abysmal effort and lack of composure in Game 4, it was the Mavs’ execution in every game of this series that exposed the Lakers. L.A. was forced to respond constantly to Dallas’ ball movement and timely defensive rotations, and clearly wasn’t up to the challenge — a point made clear with each ridiculously open three that the Mavs took in Game 4, and the offensive possessions that grinded to a halt against Dallas’ defensive pressure.
