“At the end of the day, we’re happy we took a game and go back and take care of business.” “And when those passes are kicked out, I thought we weren’t as sharp mentally in our ability to rotate. We’re going to go home, and we’ve got to take care of business. Brunson, the starting point guard with Doncic out, became the fifth Dallas player to score 40 points in a playoff game. “The mindset is we know they’re going to leave certain guys open to shoot. “We understand what’s in front of us, what’s coming.

It’s unlikely, at best, the Mavericks would play along with that (unless the Knicks were willing to overpay). Dallas just saw firsthand how much Brunson means to the franchise, it’s hard to imagine them letting him bolt. Most likely, Brunson is back with the Mavericks playing next to Luka Doncic next season.

With all due respect to the other playoff games broadcasting tonight, are you kidding me? It’s a regular-season award, he argues, which means folks on Twitter need to let go of the “narrative” when the Nuggets take on the mighty Warriors. If anything, the way this series is going further solidifies his case.” The Pacers, Pistons, and Knicks all have reported interest. Every team in the league would benefit from his offensive presence. Among those with the highest rate of their offense derived as the ball handler in pick and roll sets, none were more efficient than Brunson.

Mavericks Might Have to Give a $20M Raise to Jalen Brunson (Front Office Sports)

He's averaging 32.5 points, 7.5 rebounds, and 5.0 assists in two postseason games. Kevin Jairaj-USA TODAY Sports.

- Brunson averaged career highs in points (16.3), rebounds (3.9), and assists (4.8) in the regular season. While the Knicks have reportedly been interested in acquiring the guard, Mavs owner Mark Cuban told DallasBasketball.com that “we will do all we can to keep (Brunson)…” On Monday, with Luka Doncic sidelined and Dallas in danger of dropping its first two at home to the Jazz in their first-round series, Brunson dropped a career-high 41 points with eight rebounds and five assists in a 110-104 victory.

He is a power point guard who could post up and attack the rim at ease while possessing a solid midrange and outside game. “I think the biggest takeaway from Game 1 was just kind of staying with it, staying patient, and just playing my game.” He could post up and attack the rim at ease while possessing a solid midrange and outside game. It’s not just what he did tonight, and it’s not what he’s going to do going forward. Brunson became the fifth Mavericks player to have a 40-point playoff game, joining Luka Doncic, Dirk Nowitzki, Rolando Blackman, and Nick Van Exel. He was the first player to do that without committing a turnover. Dallas hit a playoff record 22 three-pointers and beat Utah in the same fashion the Los Angeles Clippers did in last year’s playoffs.

Jalen Brunson Torched Utah's Shabby Playoff Defense | Defector (Defector)

Already down a game in their playoff series against the Utah Jazz, and with Luka Doncic on the shelf until God knows when, the Dallas Mavericks needed some ...

His efficiency is way off, his shot selection is butt, and Utah’s offense has slipped in the playoffs from top-of-the-class in the regular season to 11th in a 16-team field. The Mavericks are hanging right in there in this series because Brunson knows his strengths and is fearlessly probing and exploiting Utah’s vulnerabilities. This went very poorly, in no small part because Brunson is a waterbug guard and O’Neale is a positional mismatch, and so O’Neale had a miserable time trying to stay in front of the much quicker Brunson around screens and in space. The framing over the past few seasons has been that this is what makes Gobert shift from an asset to a liability in the playoffs, that the best teams have the personnel to force Gobert to either defend on the perimeter or to abandon a shooter in order to protect the rim. Already down a game in their playoff series against the Utah Jazz, and with Luka Doncic on the shelf until God knows when, the Dallas Mavericks needed some things to swing their way in Game 2. Brunson, who became a regular starter for the first time in his career this season, scored an efficient and career-high 41 points in 42 minutes, and roundly outplayed Donovan Mitchell and Mike Conley, his Utah counterparts.

Down 0-1, Jalen Brunson scored a career-high 41 points to lead the Dallas Mavericks to a win while potentially ruining the New York Knicks' hopes.

He became the first player in franchise history to score that many points while not recording a single turnover in a postseason game. The catch is that maybe he could end up being too popular to land in New York City. The New York Knicks went to the wrong Dallas Mavericks-Utah Jazz game to scout future potential talent.
