      Because that's a fine statement for a player but as a commentator that just makes you seem bad at your job. He deserves to have has name said, and also its postseason, he isnt a rook anymore. Pat is cool in small doses but degrading someone on national television because he is young is dumb AF.

      I agree, but for Pat Bev it's more about Ego, and less about the conversation at hand. I know people here love the drama of his confrontations, but I prefer someone who is more secure in themselves. Yes, I know, he is ready to throw a dagger at anyone who disagrees with him, but the entertainment value of this eventually wears off. For me, dagger throwing doesn't replace a good conversation.

But if the heat makes the finals, I'd rather play the mavericks because I like that matchup better.

      @Hunchoz No one said top 3. Top 3 is the top of the top to me. He could definitely get there in 2-6 years if things keep going this way for him. He needs a couple more players. We all know without Luka they would have had a 1st round exit. But I think you can say he’s one of the top offensive talents and he’s almost 23 right? Yeah, he’s doing something special right now as an individual. We will see what happens though because they’ve been the underdogs against the Jazz and Suns. Also his team was mostly trash until half way through this year. They have the 2nd most wins since their trade

    Warriors motion offensively is so difficult to guard and requires significant amounts of energy that can take away from what you're able to do offensively, the Warriors are conditioned differently than other teams for this. I think that's a huge factor in this series that most people won't acknowledge, Luka will need help from others to win this series. I also think that between Curry, Klay, Wiggins, Poole they have alot of ways to beat you offensively, i think that Mavs being a smaller team actually could play into the Warriors hands because unlike the Suns Warriors don't heavily rely on big man play which is a good attack point for the Mavs offense

Two things. Number one, Golden State isn't getting swept, number two, they're never going to blow a 3-1 lead ever again.

    The mavs especially Luka could get what they want offensively against suns because their energy was still there because they weren’t extorting much against phoenix defensively. That won’t be the case against Warriors as Pat Bev said they gotta chase everyone around because of how gs play. Luka and the others will definitely be tired, it will make it harder for them. Not saying Luka won’t still get his 30 but it will definitely take a lot of energy from him. Not to mention this will be Draymonds easiest defensive series cause he won’t be guarding no really skilled bigs like Jokic, or JJJ from Memphis.

    • @alimaxion2005
      @alimaxion2005 2 ปีที่แล้ว +18

      Jokic couldn't play the end of each game because he's always tired from the offensive styles of the GSW the only reason Memphis won game 5 with a large margin is because they felt they can cruise through and Ja Morant wasn't playing. The only team that can give GSW trouble is Phoenix.

    Warriors also have Otto Porter Jr. off the bench to guard Luka that's 5 players, Dray, Wiggins, Klay, Kuminga and OPJ. The problem is to find someone quick enough and strong enough to stop Brunson. Since GP2 is out only Wiggins is quick enough and lengthy enough for Brunson but that leaves one less person to guard Luka. GSW are going to play the Mavs like they played the Nuggets let Luka eat like Jokic but stop the "others" and limit Luka's assists.
