Postgame Press Conference

Los Angeles Clippers - 118, Dallas Mavericks - 108

Q. It seemed like at times tonight emotions were running high and some physicality taking place between both teams. How would you say you guys handled the emotion and dealing with some of the things that were going on from the Clippers side of things?

MAXI KLEBER: Yeah, well, first of all, it was a very crowded place and we were super hyped about having our fans and it was super loud and that pushed us as a team. Obviously on both sides there were a lot of emotions involved and I think we came out pretty strong and confident and played well. We got an early big lead, but we have to like keep that lead, maintain it. We can't give it away in like two minutes and let them come back like that. But overall I think both sides, there's a lot of talking and whatever going on, but we definitely we want to focus on the game and keep our heads cool because it's a long series, so we just got to focus on our game.
