Mavericks - 127, Clippers - 121
Mavericks
Q. Coming into this game, what was the mentality and mindset after getting Game 1 to come out aggressively in the first quarter to set the tone to try and get a 2-0 lead in the series the way you did tonight?
LUKA DONCIC: The mentality was to go out there, play aggressive, have fun. That's it. That's how our mentality is.
Q. There was a possession when Kawhi is on you and you back him right down go to the [inaudible], it seems like every time Pat Beverley's on you, your eyes light up and you attack him. Is there an individual matchup that you aren't excited to attack in this series?
LUKA DONCIC: Kawhi is an amazing defender. They have some good defenders, like PG, and Kawhi two of the best perimeter defenders. You've just got to be aggressive. It's playoffs. You've got to be aggressive. That's it.
Q. I know you come in every playoff situation, postseason situation a little better, but do you see the Clippers lose intentionally to kind of set themselves for a matchup with you, does that give you extra juice, extra motivation that maybe they're setting themselves up in a situation they can't dance out of?
LUKA DONCIC: I didn't know they were doing that. Somebody told me that in the first game. But if you want to win the championship, at the end of the day you've got to win against everybody. So I don't think that makes a big statement. But you just go out there and play.
