After the first two games in the Suns vs. Mavericks semi-final series, the Western Conference top seed sailed to victory, leading many to believe that the Phoenix team, led by Devin Booker and Chris Paul, was far too strong for the 3rd placeapprox seed. However, Luka Doncic began his magic from Game 3 and recorded inspiring performances, further motivating Nick Wright to choose the latter player and his team in this particular semi-final match.

Nick Wright went on to suggest why Luka Doncic has completely dominated both Chris Paul and Devin Booker in those six games and has the upper hand as he approaches Game 7. Best Team Tag in the Playoffs

Can Luka Doncic inspire Mavs after Suns in Game 7?

In the latest episode First Thing First, Wright said: “It’s not just that the Mavs have the best player in the series, the best Mavs player is better than the top two Suns combined. Devin Booker had the audacity, the undiminished cheek, to poke fun at a clearly superior player.”

It’s safe to say that Devin Booker has had a somewhat smooth playoff run compared to his regular-season performance. The three-time All-Star should show up in the playoffs. His performance so far has been a disappointment to fans and pundits alike. He has averaged 24.7 points per game after missing three games. His absence was due to a hamstring injury he sustained in Game 2 against the New Orleans Pelicans.

On the other hand, Luka Doncic has once again established himself as one of the best clutch players in the playoffs as he managed to rank as the second highest (average) scorer in the playoffs.

Indeed, with the semi-final series in Game 7, all the pressure would be on Booker and Paul to secure a win, especially after leading 2-0 in front of the home crowd. Will we see the legendary Doncic again? Or will Suns make the Mavs pay for not outfitting Doncic with his “Robin”? Remains to be seen.
