However, the Mavericks dominated the fourth quarter and took 32 points in that quarter to seal the game in their favor, 98–92, leaving the Lakers in an 0–3 hole. This intensified the doubts of the Lakers' attempt to make a three-peat, since no team in NBA history had ever climbed out of a 0–3 hole in the playoffs to win a series.
