DAL Mavericks -4.5 (-114)
The hard part has been done in Game 2 as Dallas stole home court, but now they have to follow it up with another big time performance in Game 3. Luka Doncic is yet to shoot 50% from the field in the series, but he has more than made up for it with his defense efforts down the stretch in Game 2. As a team the Clippers shot just 37% from the field and 27% from three, you got to feel good about the Mavs' chances here if they can retain that level of intensity on the defensive end.
