GAME THREAD: Dallas Mavericks at Phoenix Suns Game 7
WHAT: Game 7 of the Western conference semi finals
WHERE: Footprint Center, Phoenix, Arizona
WHEN: 7:00 p.m. CT
HOW: TNT
THE STORY: This is it. Game 7’s are what most NBA fans clamor for, they’re where legends are forged, and narratives are either written or erased.
For these Dallas Mavericks, this is playing with house money. Getting to the second round was a goal, with anything past that probably being extra. And yet, they’ve drawn the Phoenix Suns even through six games, with a chance at shocking the NBA landscape by winning in the seventh. 20 different ESPN experts picked against them. Heck, we didn’t think they had a chance either, not really.
