LA Clippers and Dallas Mavericks ended up playing out the best skirmish of the playoffs till now the last time they took to the court. In what was an intriguing and enthralling affair between two worldclass, levelly balanced setups, Dallas Mavericks ended up prevailing as the game went down all the way to overtime.
It was a remarkable win for the club, one transpired in completely unexpected circumstances. Making an advent into the affair in the backdrop of having lost Kristaps and featuring an injured Doncic, things were heavily stacked against a Dallas side already facing a 2-1 deficit in the outing.
However, the best get going when all odds are against them and that is exactly what Dallas did on the day. Luka Doncic was in pristine touch on the day as he took over the contest with resplendent triple-double responsible for Dallas’ widely hailed win, one which saw the side restore parity in the series.
LAC Vs DAL Dream11 Probable Winner
The Clippers have some serious introspection to do after that result. Despite having their best roster at their disposal and up against a Dallas side they handsomely outshone in the Western Conference, the Clippers have ended up being schooled in the playoffs.
With Dallas having incredible momentum in their ranks, buoyed by a sensational triumph the last time around, this one promises to be yet another cracker of an affair. The barest of margins will determine the outcome of today’s forthcoming game with us envisaging Dallas coming out on top once again.

Dream 11 Picks
Point Guard
Luka Doncic was not only the talk of the town after game 4 between the two but all across the playoffs as well. He’s been in ludicrous touch in the seeding round, only further escalating what was already a terrific season for him.
With a gargantuan 43-13-17 triple-double to win the game for his side, the point guard makes for a must have pick in this slot. Partnering him up for the day’s scrimmage is the cheaply priced Trey Burke who at just 7 credits ended up with 25 points in the same game.
Shooting Guard
With Paul George going off the boil and losing steam, Kawhi Leonard has seen the onus grow on him to come up with George’s side of the scoring as well. And his expertise has allowed him to shoulder the extra burden with him responsible for a staggering 32 points in game 4.
Coming in next to him is Lou Williams. Back at his clinical best, he was responsible for 36 points, 5 dimes and 4 boards, a performance which took his side into overtime.
Small Forward
Landry Shamet becomes the third pick in a row from the Clippers. Dallas have had a real dilemma on their heads when trying to protect the rim, a predicament which allowed Landry Shamet to come up with 8 points the last time around.
Tim Hardaway will be making a foray into our setup from Dallas Mavericks. He pulled off a massive 21 points in the bygone encounter between the two with his ability to go unnoticed at the corners seeing him open the zone up for treys.
Power Forward
Marcus Morris is once again showing why he’s endured such a long time at the highest level in the game. While his 9 points were yet again a testament to his penchant for the jump shots, the 5 boards he pulled off alluded towards his ability to quash sides from scoring past him.
Centre
Given the way they shot from the deep the last time around, the Clippers are going to be extremely cautious when defending Dallas’ triples today. And as long as they Ivica Zubac at their service, the side will be quietly confident of stabilising its ship and adding the requite defensive wind in its sail.
Star Player
After a succulent triple-double in game 4, Doncic was the only right pick as today’s star player while Kawhi is the vice-captain.
