They've been terrible at assessing the Mavs literally all year so they have to double down on stupid. PJ Washington was a terrible acquisition to these guys and they spent more time talking about negative implications of trading for him than anything he would provide
@@LonghornsLegend Bro, they said 'Is he better enough?', not that he wasn't good. They traded almost all of their assets at the trade deadline, meaning if this team doesn't get it done, they won't have many ways to improve going forward
Honestly, I haven't watched it yet and haven't gotten the tone of what they said, but I think they're reacting to the fact that based on Luka going into this game being hobbled, the expectation was that Kyrie was going to have to hit more shots. So even though they won, I think everybody was surprised at Kyrie's low offensive output. Although others that I have watched have given him credit for the other things he did on the court.
Kyrie is the litmus test of who watched the game or who read the boxscore. Kyrie was fantastic, distributed and played incredible defense all game. 11 assists and so many steals and deflections.
Screw bontemps. Just the fact that his voice is that annoying yet he chooses to talk for a part of his living… it just shows you the disdain he has for us all. Oh and he has dogged the mavs many a time so eff him.
@The_Invisible_Man CONJECTURE! u dont make NO rules! everybody cant like everybody...dont be sheep using low hanging fruit simpleton words like casuals. plenty DIE HARD nba fans dont rock w your boo boi
In retrospect, on the play that he wrecked his shoulder, i don't know why Maxi Keblar tried that play and didn't brace himself...same w Luka falling like ppl fall but not bracing before falling on his grill, same way and spot on court as GREATEST EVER Larry Joe Bird...we dodged a bullet there, i thought he might have head trauma lol...AMAZING that the 21 - 6 run Dallas went on in the third quarter is when Luka was resting on the bench .That bodes well for everyone’s confidence and future contributions; which is needed for deep run...Kidd and God Kyrie NBA champs and Luka the Don conference finals JUST two years ago.....Beantown v Mavs finals; been saying it since the Fall! LE'GO!!
Kyrie didn’t have a miserable game though. His mindset was clearly to facilitate and hit the rim runners and the shooters on the squad. At times, it was frustrating because I felt like he was being way too deferential and not looking for his shot enough. But to say he played miserable is just so disingenuous. Like, did you even watch the game bro? 😂
Mobley played the best dang game against the best dang nearly 40 year old center the Celtics got. Seriously, got to prioritize game chances to develope his offense during the regular season moving forward. Needs more strength. Greatness in his future.
This Kirk guy worked for the spurs?? His comment about kyrie makes him look like a basketball noob. Kyrie didn’t score much but he played high level defense and play maked for his teammates. Smh he talking like a casual that doesn’t watch games.
They were talking about Boston like they were going to win the title. Meanwhile, the Knicks won back to back at home with one starter and four bench players, people forget, hartenStein, Josh hart and Dante weren’t starters at the beginning of the year
2 things I can tell you as a Raptors fan, one is OG gets hurt like 5 times a year, he is fragile, hence he was injured the entire 2019 championships run, and two pascal gets worse as the pressure gets more intense.
Nah let’s not forget when embiid fell his full body weight on Mitchell Robinsons leg on purpose… it was not jus when Mitch was up in the air and embiid pulled his legs.. there was another play that was bad and injured it
Stop cry and making excuses. This is the NBA, with the best players in the world. Every win is a win and every loss is a loss. People don’t go back and dissect championships based on injuries and excuses. Just stop
Kyrie had the best dang 9 point game ever. I thought he was going off the flat edge of the earth after that 2nd quarter steal. Glad he hung on, I wouldn't have wanted to lose him. Kevin Durant chimed in "Who is that guy?".
This is supposed to be a real basketball podcast? That Kyrie take is embarrassing. He epitomized a guy who just wants to win and knew he had to get his teammates involved to win the series instead of focusing on his numbers. This being the best ESPN can offer is a joke
like every other commenter is saying, it's easy to see you didn't watch mavs/thunder if your take was that kyrie didn't impact the game. on the jokic front, ppl just want consistency. jokic had a good year but it was worse than his previous years (something that was held against giannis in 2021) and his team clearly wasn't completely focused on the regular season (something that's been held against lebron in multiple years). shai led a team to a 17 game improvement in wins (and the 1 seed), leading one of the youngest teams in the league while having a better individual season than he ever had, including being the best two-way guard this regular season. personally i still had jokic (bc my tiebreaker is who's the best player, and i think jokic is better), but i can see why ppl were annoyed shai wasn't closer (or even the winner)
It’s amazing at how little a lot of these guys seem to know about basketball. I’m convinced some of them just look at the box score and draw their own conclusions.
Its a crime if embiid finishes second and he is allowed to throw tantrums and the media will baby him and never hold him accountable ever again especially in the playoffs
@@Miles_305 sorry it was a joke/commentary on how in the headline they’ll say this is what the video is about, then bury the info you came to see. But yes I’ll use your quick advice, “not make sentence, spell bad!” Thx and I’m glad I could annoy you today.😂
Keep protecting that dirty player Embiid. He grabbed a players legs and the player immediately started hobbling. *this is after a nut kick. But "no need to relitigate".
The next time windy say something so disrespectful about ai they should fire him instantly on the spot ..... He only was a volume scorer because defense was physical in his era and he was 6'0 in todays NBA he would be shooting so efficiently..... Ai would be Jalen brunson on steroids with the handle floater and up and unde and middy game
smh "Kyrie had miserable game" is reckless crazy talk! DO BETTER sir lol why windy ALWAYS touching his face w his hand and fanger? the past decade...quite geeky
Stop it y’all… Kyrie played a good game by Draymond Greene standards but it was not a great game by Kyrie standards. There’s no reason for Kyrie to not score in double figures. It’s not like he had 20 assists or 20 rebounds.
JUST WIN BABY! he has had PLENTY great stays since st Patrick's high school new jerz...just wants another chip now to go along with his lovely life, wife, child at this juncture...cry bc he didnt please YOU game 2 🙄
These guys…. Kyrie played awesome. He just didn’t score. Multiple strips. 2 steals 2 blocks. 11 assists! It’s like they didn’t watch the game.
My thoughts exactly
Yup

Yeah Kirk obviously didn’t watch mavs okc. Kyrie didn’t score but had a great game all around

box score watchers are mad
but even that isn't bad
Bingo
It works so long as pj scores 29😂
F them! GOD KYRIE ANDREW IRVING and Mavs v everybody!
people hate on bontemps but he keeps it 100

Did Kirk even watch the game? Kyrie had one of the best 9 point games you will ever see.
It's nutty to me how much Kyrie's rebuilt his reputation among the fans
😂

We want breakdowns of the playoffs and the current NBA. Love Kirk as on offseason cameo but there are better things to discuss than his book right now
Less than 7 minutes on an hour long pod😂 they did all the breaking down they were going to
@@carsonkahla9162 Kirk clearly didn’t watch Mavs/OKC
TRUST! bed bugs are NO JOKE...need Benadryl and time to overcome, cant concentrate until over
8:20 skip the plug for the book
Thanks for thit. Next time I'll check the comments before watching.
🫡
The book does sound like it might be good though
@@tanguero_ I was thinking the same 😅

Kirk is a Casual fs
Kyrie did not have a "miserable" game
Tim is so grumpy lol

Man we definitely need Goldsberry on more! Gotta grab that book for sure
Spyda Mitchell fried the Celtics.
If embiid grabbed the other leg, which leg do you think Robinson landed awkwardly on?
They were talking about Boston like they were going to win the title. Meanwhile, the Knicks won back to back at home with one starter and four bench players, people forget, hartenStein, Josh hart and Dante weren’t starters at the beginning of the year
2 things I can tell you as a Raptors fan, one is OG gets hurt like 5 times a year, he is fragile, hence he was injured the entire 2019 championships run, and two pascal gets worse as the pressure gets more intense.
Tibs killing his guys just to get a chance to be slapped around by Boston 😂
Tim Bontemps is a hypocrite who should not be commenting on basketball because of his own double standards and hypocrisy.
Please don’t bring back this guy again! He’s boring as hell, same as Spears. We need both Tim’s and Windy, that’s it!
Ricky Davis dropping 35 ppg in the playoffs almost gave me whiplash and had me thinking Brian is on something besides sleep deprivation.
Nah let’s not forget when embiid fell his full body weight on Mitchell Robinsons leg on purpose… it was not jus when Mitch was up in the air and embiid pulled his legs.. there was another play that was bad and injured it
Embiid is a dirty player. He tried to injure my Knicks squad
lol the Pelicans had no Zion. People be hyping that Thunder sweep and now they facing an INJURED Luka they lose.
Fax lol
Stop cry and making excuses. This is the NBA, with the best players in the world. Every win is a win and every loss is a loss. People don’t go back and dissect championships based on injuries and excuses. Just stop
Mavs fans already making excuses for Luka 😂
@@Asmentionedearlier how we making excuses the media making the excuses for us
MF THEY WON GAME 1
so we gonna completely ignore ky was effective distributing the ball
Brian go take a nap , we can wait for the pod
Kyrie had the best dang 9 point game ever. I thought he was going off the flat edge of the earth after that 2nd quarter steal. Glad he hung on, I wouldn't have wanted to lose him. Kevin Durant chimed in "Who is that guy?".
backhanded clown compliment for no earthly good reason smh FAILED at being humorous boi
lol the Pelicans had no Zion. People be hyping that Thunder sweep and now they facing an INJURED Luka, OKC will lose. Mavs in 6!
Yup and Ingram came back to soon from a pretty bad injury almost tore his ACL
legitimately would wager all the money from all three of your next paychecks combined that Giddey starts game 3.
This is supposed to be a real basketball podcast? That Kyrie take is embarrassing. He epitomized a guy who just wants to win and knew he had to get his teammates involved to win the series instead of focusing on his numbers. This being the best ESPN can offer is a joke
I like how folks mention our home playoff record but fail to mention our dominant road record lmao
Why does Botemps speak like an angry robot all the time?
He’s got such an irritating voice 😂
like every other commenter is saying, it's easy to see you didn't watch mavs/thunder if your take was that kyrie didn't impact the game. on the jokic front, ppl just want consistency. jokic had a good year but it was worse than his previous years (something that was held against giannis in 2021) and his team clearly wasn't completely focused on the regular season (something that's been held against lebron in multiple years). shai led a team to a 17 game improvement in wins (and the 1 seed), leading one of the youngest teams in the league while having a better individual season than he ever had, including being the best two-way guard this regular season. personally i still had jokic (bc my tiebreaker is who's the best player, and i think jokic is better), but i can see why ppl were annoyed shai wasn't closer (or even the winner)
It’s amazing at how little a lot of these guys seem to know about basketball. I’m convinced some of them just look at the box score and draw their own conclusions.
Bomtemps refuses to say anything good about the Mavs after a win, but has so many things to say after a Mavs loss
Iverson was the most electrifying player I ever saw in person.
Luka should be closer, not SGA 😂😂😂
Its a crime if embiid finishes second and he is allowed to throw tantrums and the media will baby him and never hold him accountable ever again especially in the playoffs
Lol, Tim upset much that Windy got the Knick assignment this round hahaha
Man, Tim Bontemps is insufferable
Steph M. Handles even tho the Knicks were the Knicks his handles were crazy ASF
NOBODY worried about cavs in Beantown!
31:00 mark... what's wrong with Josh Giddey, did he get himself caught up in a MINOR infraction(is it GIDDEY or GIGGITY, like QUAQMIRE)?? 😂😂😂
Th vibes are off on this one
Wish I knew at the start they were gonna blow MJ and the greats for the first 20 min! Jesus just get to the mavs pls and thx!
Use timestaps😐

Dort's flopping has been nasty to watch. Cartoonish falls every time somebody touches him
Mavs in 6
There's no reason for "series" to have an apostrophe on the right end in the thumbnail
These are the people that vote for nba awards. Do not take media votes awards seriously.
Its most important player, not "best team" or "Most healthy team".
Let’s goooooo knicks … you know Tim is wishing he was covering the knicks series hah can see it on his face
All the fouls/calls Indiana submitted are probably for "carrying" & travels etc that should be called but haven't been called for a long time.
Keep protecting that dirty player Embiid. He grabbed a players legs and the player immediately started hobbling.
*this is after a nut kick. But "no need to relitigate".
MVP!
SMH I hate when ppl talk about the Mavs but don’t watch the games 9pts not everything he also had 2 steals 11 assists
Kardiac Cavs in 6 🕸️
The next time windy say something so disrespectful about ai they should fire him instantly on the spot ..... He only was a volume scorer because defense was physical in his era and he was 6'0 in todays NBA he would be shooting so efficiently..... Ai would be Jalen brunson on steroids with the handle floater and up and unde and middy game
Tatums so overrated 😂
It happened when embiid jumped on him for a lose ball
Are the Celtics getting more money if they play more games? Looks like it.
on the schneid!
“Jarrett Allen is the moat important interior defender on the cavs.” No. No he is not.
Adam corolla needs to sue.
Where’s Tim Macmahon?
Was at Mavs OKC game, saw him on sideline...botemps good but CYNICAL af at times!!
Need to mute replay video around 10 min mark
Ecf Boston vs New York or cavs vs pacers 😂🤔
Bob Pettit ?
The big forehead dude is unbearable to listen to
Series, not series'
If Brunson can ball and u seeing it u can’t say what AI couldn’t do Brunson is no AI js Wendy smh shut up
smh "Kyrie had miserable game" is reckless crazy talk! DO BETTER sir lol why windy ALWAYS touching his face w his hand and fanger? the past decade...quite geeky
Show boring without the Lakers
An entire chapter, only on Mike? Nah Im good on the book. Just more propaganda
It’s more than one chapter in a book 😭
Typical bait and switch, eastern conference is all they care about
Stop it y’all… Kyrie played a good game by Draymond Greene standards but it was not a great game by Kyrie standards. There’s no reason for Kyrie to not score in double figures. It’s not like he had 20 assists or 20 rebounds.
JUST WIN BABY! he has had PLENTY great stays since st Patrick's high school new jerz...just wants another chip now to go along with his lovely life, wife, child at this juncture...cry bc he didnt please YOU game 2 🙄
Yeah it’s great now. 3s, dunks, lack of defense, fundamentals and the increase of softness and athleticism.
