@@imnotblindbutiloveblindfol8449 yeah you’re not watching the Mavs this year broski. I’m very confident this roster would mop the floor with Boston.

this mavs team is a beast in the making. last year loss was very frustrating and it seems it still in the back off the head. we need to tighten up the defence more , we need to be top 3 tin defence o have a chance
Our offense was our weakness in the finals not our defense. Everybody but Luka struggled to score with Kai becoming non existent in Boston. Celtics didn’t torch us with 125+ pts in the playoffs, they just simply scored more than us. Their defense shut our offense down.
@@G.dot_ Both Luka/Kyrie played bad during the Finals. Kyrie was awful! This season, Mavs aren't Kyrie/Luka centric and have greater depth. Mavs can finally win games with a minimal performance by Luka/Kyrie
They have the talent. They just have to execute. I love seeing Grimes, Dinwiddie, Marshall, and PJ coming through lifting some of the weight off of Luka and Ky
If you luka involves his teammates more, mavs would definitely be very dangerous, as seen when he does. However, complacency usually steps in after a few good game and he have to be reminded to play defense.
We don't miss Djj if we healthy 🙏🏽 we have a strong chance of winning it all 🙏🏽🏆🏆 we rank no. 2 about to beat no. 1 in the west 💪🏽 they've won and not complete.... let's go Mavz
It's funny how people don't have patience anymore. Luka was hurt starting the season, he needed time to get back in shape and also used to the new teammates. If they figure everyone out offensively, they will be scoring 140 every game.
I mean, you didnt even mention Klay who is the only 4x champion on the team, and while he slumped/injured a little like Luka, bro had 20 last night and his ppg is only going to go up as the season progresses, for Klay is a notorious slow starter. Watch out league!
That would be nice. But all the mavs need is that Klay being more consistent. As long as he doesn't miss too much and plays decent defense, he's helping the team a lot.
J-Kidd turned a season around for the 3rd time now. He doesn't get enough credit and even Mavs fans like to bash him at times but he's the main reason why Dallas adapts mid-season over and over again. When Dallas had their conf. finals run they turned it around around new year. Dallas went from bad defense to top tier defense and last season was the same. It's J-Kidd, I'm telling you
This is one of the Deepest squads Kyrie has had and this Mavs organization as a whole has had!!!!! Not to mention uber enertaining basketball 🏀🎮 🪄 videogame Magic!!!!💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙

@@edwinbleau5334 Gel and also to see the consistency. This current win pace is great, but can they keep this level up until February? March? April? Playoffs? That's why I'm a little more hesitant to get really excited and confident. But I do believe in them. :)
mavs able to limit celts around 100pts per game. its really the scoring they need cause kyrie was having a hard time in that series luka was doing his scoring while being injured.whats better now is defense cause more defense means more offense. now they have more threat to scoring like klay,dindiddy, and marshal. i see lively gafford and grimes more for spark the heat
Yep they have more guys who can actually score now, so if the Celtics double and triple team Kyrie the whole time like they did in the finals it won’t even matter because they have like 4 other guys who can score 20+ pts in any given game. I think they have a way better chance of winning this season!
Damn i forgot how exciting that clippers series was! Last year was so fun! Im seeing some of that same magic this year! We might can make another title run!
As a Lifelong Mavs fan i just love what Nico Harrison put together. And after the slow start to the season everything falls in place now. On a sidenote. Luka got over a week of rest and he looks sooo much better in terms of movement. The fact we can let him rest if needed now is such an improvement so he doesnt have to play with 1 leg in the playoffs again. Lets Go Mavs!
January 25 and February 6th is the real test. I pray the Mavs can stay healthy until then, as they play against Boston. That will be the deciding factor if they can make it to the top this year. Also, this is a pivotal time as well, as if they still missing anything this is right before the trade deadline. I doubt Mavs really make any move, but the timing is perfect.
Naji and Grimes are not just 3nD wing players. They can dribble and make plays. And Din, he was pivotal on the Mavs run to the conference finals three seasons ago. He could have been handy against the Celtics. Mavs got more versatile and more potent in offense. Still the issue is will be how will they defend against a 5 out team? Mavs struggles against centers that can shoot threes. As it takes away the rim protection. Luka and Kyrie can play passable defense as long as they can 'funnel' the attacker towards their centers. They'll struggle without their rim protection.
You aren't the only one. Luka and Kyrie's career stats as far as scoring exceeds Tatum & Brown's. I get it, The Celtics FRONT OFFICE built a great team, but the Mavericks have finally built a great one also. The Celtics need to worry about the Cavs at this point.
@@morrist8727 Tatum/Brown did not beat the Mavs. The Celtics did! This season, the Mavs aren't Kyrie/Luka centric and are finally getting contributions from bench guys
D'Mavs have turned the corner. Stay healthy, develop space and execution, iron any residual and/or emergent kinks in the marathon season and prepare for the FINALS sprint. Lovin' it.
Luka needed more help against Boston and looks like he got a few guys that can help on offense so it’s not all him. They have 4 guys that can go off that’s not Luka and Kyrie now.
Boston is still top dawgs. The mavericks are my heart, kyrie is my guy. There Nothing more I want than seeing him n the mavs destroy the Celtics everytime we match up against them. But the Celtics are still the team to beat. They have bout 7/8 guys that can play heavy minutes plus the garden is no joke to play in. But think the Mavs are more prepped and have a much deeper team and Luka understands what he’s working with, in terms of his teammates. God please let us whoop they ass on January 25th please 🙏🏾
So the Mavs replaced THJ with Klay, Josh Green with Quentin Grimes, and Derrick Jones Jr. with Naji Marshall, all of whom (even Klay despite his struggles) are upgrades. And are paying them a combined like $30 million a year. Plus, they have PJ and Gafford and Lively getting better, Jaden Hardy and Spencer Dinwiddie cooking off the bench and Exum is yet to come back. And then of course, Luka and Kyrie. This mavs team has the depth and balance to win the chip
Well THJ was actually traded for Grimes from Detroit and THJ was a bench player, just like Grimes is, but I get what you’re saying. Grimes is 10 times the player THJ is.
@ listen. I knew last year we didn’t have a realist shot vs Boston. We were just out gunned, but to think this team was out of it after the first few weeks of the season would be extremely naive. The additions to this roster in the offseason, plus a full camp/preseason to get in tune with PJ and Gafford etc after their mid season acquisition has been wonderful. You can see everything falling into place. We actually match very well vs The Celtics now. You can throw any number of Marshall, Grimes, Washington at their big 2. Tingus pingus will get rekt in the paint by our underrated front line, plus we have a LOT more shooters than last year. Oh, and we have arguably the two best closers on the planet. I mean realistically even Boston would take our big 2 over theirs, they just had the depth last year. I think Nico solved that. Luka also just didn’t look 100% to start this season, maybe the long playoff run with the Olympics. Anyways you sleepin on Dallas you ain’t paying attention.
You beat an OKC team with no bigs, which has been the only reason your Mavs have beaten them. Oh, and PJ Washington being a completely different player against them. Your luck runs out this year sorry to say.
@@SpecOpsCM LOL we beat OKC in the playoffs last year with a lesser team. OKC is only a good regular season team, I give them that. Shai doesn't have enough help to make a deeper run. You are also delusional to think that all of a sudden PJ will stop being a "different" player against them.
Deeper than last year's 2nd half group, essentially swapping out DJJ and THJ for Naji and Grimes + rejuvenated Dwid and Klay. The only weak link is the backup 4 behind PJ (Maxi), and a combo of Naji and OMax might fill that role too. Josh Green has not really been missed either.
11-1 in the last 12 games. Let's see how they do in the NBA cup. We need Naji to come back from sickness and Exum from his injury and then we'll get a good glimpse of what they are capable of for the playoffs.
You forgot a key player Klay! He might not be at his best yet, but just imagine when teams try to double Luka or Kyrie. That's going to be a mistake because Klay will be wide-open
one of the dangerous things about MAVS this season is, THEY HAVE KLAY... okay so far Klay is still not consistent... but once he gets the same rhythm and momentum as in warriors 2022,,, ITS OVER MAN...Celtic may still be the most difficult challenge... but as long as Klay, Kai and Luka can make a big contribution... its about time the Mavs are champions !!
They've lost 8 games by a total of 34 points and i believe the greatest loss was 8 points and 4 of them were by 3 or fewer points and a fifth went to OT. They basically are 5 shots away from being 21-3 even including all the games missed by key pieces (Luka 6, Pj Naji and Lively 4 each, Klay and Kyrie have missed a couple). If they go into the playoffs healthy this team will be NASTY
But how are the Mav’s still able to do it (highlight lobs)? The Celtics took that away last and gave the NBA a blueprint that many teams have tried to copy but with Klay having to be face guarded the entire game and dynamic wings it’s just not possible. Klay erasure this year has been wild just because he handy shot 42% yet.
A lot of you are saying OKC is better🤔, honestly I understand your rationale… and true to your claim, I have seen Chet lock down Wemby when they played against spurs… but guess what, I have seen Chet and Wemby both lock down by Derrick Lively, don’t believe me .. go watch the games … PG Washington on Shea… Luka or Grimes or Marshall or Spencer on Jay Dub…: Which Leave Chet to be double team by Lively & Gafford…Isaiah Hartenstein … we hold no fear of … That’s defending them… how are they going to defend us? When everyone is playing better … more floor spacers on … and we are highly efficient at shooting the 3… we don’t shoot a lot of them … but our guys are between 50 to 39 % from the arch… So who will guard the two headed monster that is Kai and Luka? Having to expand so much energy on Offence.

@@faridamohammed8362 🐴
You forgot to mention Spencer
@@Titor1021 yeah my bad
one of the dangerous things about MAVS this season is, THEY HAVE KLAY... okay so far Klay is still not consistent... but once he gets the same rhythm and momentum as in warriors 2022,,, ITS OVER MAN...Celtic may still be the most difficult challenge... but as long as Klay, Kai and Luka can make a big contribution... its about time the Mavs are champions !!
Neva left
Dallas badly needs an offensive coach that can put dynamic schemes on the floor.
They should fire kid long ago and get nick nurse
@@luke-jarvisfire ? Smh
You could pick a million things to talk about but I can’t wait to see Naji kill it in the playoffs
we had time to gel ngl and role players getting more comfortable now and contributing
😈OverPowered😈
Where did we go ?
Go Mavs!
Our best player Dwight Powell will lead us to another NBA Finals, Let's Go Mavs!
When did we stop? From finals, to a new roster, to a few games where we lost by less than 3 points lol? We never left..sorry it took 2 weeks to gel
You forgot to mention Mavs' weak link: KIDD.
@@sjiang120 ehhh Kidd has made great adjustments throughout last years playoffs one of the reason they made it that far can’t hate him
It looks like mavs are the 15,16 and 17 cavs against the warriors
You forgot Spencer himwiddie
@@JuanGomez-tr7pq true lol himwiddie 😂
They've lost 8 games by a total of 34 points and i believe the greatest loss was 8 points and 4 of them were by 3 or fewer points and a fifth went to OT. They basically are 5 shots away from being 21-3 even including all the games missed by key pieces (Luka 6, Pj Naji and Lively 4 each, Klay and Kyrie have missed a couple). If they go into the playoffs healthy this team will be NASTY
If only they didnt have to face 2 amazingly deeper teams in OKC and Boston, this team will havr to beat both if they want a ring
LuKai is comin
Bottom line, with Luka and Kyrie, they are fun to watch. We will see what else happens. ✌✌
But how are the Mav’s still able to do it (highlight lobs)? The Celtics took that away last and gave the NBA a blueprint that many teams have tried to copy but with Klay having to be face guarded the entire game and dynamic wings it’s just not possible. Klay erasure this year has been wild just because he handy shot 42% yet.
Mavs biggest test is against the Pacers
Everyone sleeping on Exum
At 3:30 that’s Brandon Boston jr not Alvarado lol he’s been hurt for a min
Mavericks need to work on having luka stop boucing the air out of the ball and give his team-mates more chances to make plays
Mavs vs thunders west final
A lot of you are saying OKC is better🤔, honestly I understand your rationale… and true to your claim, I have seen Chet lock down Wemby when they played against spurs… but guess what, I have seen Chet and Wemby both lock down by Derrick Lively, don’t believe me .. go watch the games …
PG Washington on Shea… Luka or Grimes or Marshall or Spencer on Jay Dub…: Which Leave Chet to be double team by Lively & Gafford…Isaiah Hartenstein … we hold no fear of …
That’s defending them… how are they going to defend us? When everyone is playing better … more floor spacers on … and we are highly efficient at shooting the 3… we don’t shoot a lot of them … but our guys are between 50 to 39 % from the arch…
So who will guard the two headed monster that is Kai and Luka? Having to expand so much energy on Offence.
kyrie games with the mavs be like:
Q1: 1
Q2: 0
Q3: 11
Q4: 19
@@harveyepstein8256 fr lol bro really is a closer
Lost 4 in a row in November with a combined point dif of -8 😂 This team could easily be 20-4
Boston going to beat us with they willingness to Go Way over their Salary Cap to win !
2nd actually..
@@aldrinfromyt7818 yeah I was making it when they were third
Luka needs to take better care of himself man. He needs to drop weight, hit the gym more, and do cardio. If he was in peak Jordan shape then he’d be incredible
this gotta be ai too
you're sleeping on PJ
I bet if we work on our Defense its no wsy we dont win it all
All the way up to 2nd*
