The Dallas Mavericks led by Luka Doncic dismantled the Phoenix Suns in Game 6 to force a Game 7 back in Phoenix.
The Dallas Mavericks blew out the Phoenix Suns in Game 6 of their ongoing series in the semi-finals of the Western Conference by a score of 113-86 and have forced a game 7 to decide the series.
Luka Doncic led the way for his team with 33 points and continued his impressive playoff form. He was absolutely locked in from the start and gave the Suns no chance of coming back into the game.
Dinwiddie, Brunson, and Bullock also contributed with double-digit points, as the Mavs used the home-court advantage to full effect.
They now have a tough task ahead of them to win the game 7 at Phoenix to qualify for the Western Conference Finals, and Luka will be up for it.
The Suns were the 1st seed in the West and were by far the best team in basketball throughout the regular season. However, their journey in the playoff hasn’t been easy so far. The 9th seed Pelicans took them to 6 games, and now they are in a win-or-go-home situation against the Dallas Mavericks.
Even though the Suns will be playing game 7 at their home court, it won’t be easy for them because the Mavericks have been quite good throughout the series. With Devin Booker and Chris Paul not finding it easy in the 6th game, there will be serious doubts about them in game 7.
For the neutral fans, it will be a great game 7, but both these teams have shown throughout the series that they are well capable of blowing out each other in any game.
