The Dallas Mavericks are seeing a little glimmer of hope against the Golden State Warriors. Up until yesterday, the Warriors were 3-0 up in the series. But now, the Mavs have gotten one win at their home. Luka Doncic scored the most points from either side to win game 4 against Stephen Curry and co.

The Mavericks escaped a scare of getting swept off 4-0 by the Warriors. But they had to wait for their chance and really had to wait through the delay at the start of the second half in game 4. A leak in the roof at American Airlines Center delayed the game.?

Water dripped down near the Warriors? bench, as arena workers scrambled to cover the court with towels. A couple of workers were given the queasy task of going to the catwalk and fixing the leak on the roof. Luka had some fun in his post game interview while addressing the incident.

?Luka, you?ve done a lot for this franchise,? a reporter asked. ?Is there anything you can help do to fix the roof??

?I wish,? Don?i? replied. ?I?ll ask Dirk [Nowitzki]. Dirk has more memories in this building.? The reporter joked back, ?He?ll say he built it so maybe he is to blame.?
