Luka Doncic wants everyone to know that the Dallas Mavericks shouldn't be counted out.
Doncic had another masterful performance on Wednesday night, as the Mavs edged out the Los Angeles Clippers 127-114 to even out their first round series. The All-Star had 28 points, eight rebounds and seven assists in just 28 minutes of play.
When asked by Jared Greenberg what the crew over at NBA on TNT should be saying about the Mavs after their huge Game 2 win, Doncic noted that they should start believing Dallas stands a chance against the the second-seeded Clippers.
“They should be saying, we got a chance you know in this first round. A lot of people counted us out. I know a lot of people didn't count us in. But I know they should be saying we got a chance,” Luka Doncic said post-game.

Apparently, the Mavs superstar is a huge fan of NBA on TNT, so much so that he was up late on Tuesday night watching the show and even tweeting about it. As Greenberg said it, Doncic probably rushed back to his hotel room to catch the recap of their game on Wednesday night.
All eyes were on Doncic in Game 2, as he came up with another historic playoff performance despite being in foul trouble. The Slovenian youngster followed up his huge Game 1 performance with another stellar outing — even passing Kareem Abdul-Jabbar for the most points in the first two playoff games.
With Luka Doncic coming up with record-breaking numbers and his supporting cast playing well, there is certainly reason to believe the Mavs have a chance against any team in the league.
Don't count these Mavs out just yet.
