ESPN on suicide watch right now lol
ESPN went on suicide watch when Lebron was eliminated. Hell, they still have three LBJ stories featured on their home page right now, even though he's no longer playing.
People should remember how they were with Dirk 🤣🤣🤣🤣
They can’t stand the fact that the best 2 players in the league are out of shape white boys 😂😂
DEI quota needed. LMao
😂😂😂😂😂
So Ant is just “in a slump” but if the roles were flipped Luka would be trashed beyond belief
Of course.
Exactly
Well we know why. No need to explain. Same thing Jokic.
its always the same with them until they win it gets annoying
black privilege
You guys really thought Ant was betten than Luka?
Only the casuals did
Yeah evidently ant is Jordan
The media is full of casuals
@@y0uknowmysteezPoole
If Luka was Black, no one would have thought of that.
I didn't know "You can't f-ing guard me" was Slovenian.😂
followed by a fluent "go home b*tch"
turns out I'm bilinngual!
I thought he said smfd!!
Pitchku matre is😊
It was a joke guys…
Playing on a bad knee, sprained ankle, banged shoulder dropping a 30+ triple double but people in the media already running D for the "face of the league"
We all know why they give him the benefit of doubt and why they are so ready to hate on Luka or Jokic when they fail and it has nothing to do with basketball. It's sad.
@@Luka-st4ufAmericans are simply xenophobic. It’s a known fact at least in the basketball media community, the only times when they don’t hate on these European players is when they are excellent. They are not allowed off nights
@@Luka-st4ufyeah it’s because Luka and Jokic are arguably the best players in the world. They’re getting treated like it. They’re getting treated how LeBron would get treated, Kobe, and whoever was considered the best in the world in their careers. Also this is Ant’s first time this deep in the playoffs and he’s only 22. Luka got the same pass two years ago when GS swept them in the WCF. Ant won’t get the same pass moving forward. So put that race card back in your pocket. 🤡🤡🤡🤡
Whining about the media is what small, insecure, basement-dwelling broke guys do. Oh, wait. That’s you.
Hope khawi taking notes
Vibes of 2011 Mavs, Comebacks and being underdog 😤
Also determined and on fire at the right time.
Big facts right there, and it’s turning out every game is exciting with Mavs
2011 mavs run was when I started watching basketball. They’ve been my team ever since. I’m so happy rn 😂
Exactly.
Dallas is 25 and 5 in the last 30 and 8-2 in last 10 that is championship basketball.
Luka keeps adopting babies 🤱
😂😂🤣🤣
Has a whole adoption center 🤣
A lot of black babies😂😂😂
@@VictorNyanumba-zl2fqnasty work by Luka. Man is ice cold
send da video
Ant is limited. He doesn't know what to do vs. some coverages. Wolves are not tired, they're outplayed.
Ant walking up and down the court, that man is exhausted
@@shaq132everybody tired no excuses
Yea they’re just young they still fighting tho at least it’s not a blowout
@@shaq132 Results of being out played
idk if yall are old enough to remember 2011 Finals Lebron. The casuals are saying he doesn't want it enough, but real fans know that it was because of the way Dallas defended against him.
Pretty sure Luka was still mad at Gobert for deliberately punching him in the stomach.
For sure
And punch in the face from 103:102 action
He was going for the ball 😂😂😂😂😂😂,his stomach was just in d way 😂😂😂😂
If you don't go for the ball with a closed fist are you even trying ? 😂
Luka been torching Gobert for years. It’s no secret they dislike each other.
Lmao and some people had the nerve to say Ant was better than luka…how are you tired at 22 years old 😂😂 Luka is HIM!!!! Stop disrespecting that man!!!
Luka was carrying an entire franchise on his back at the age of 22 into the playoffs.
Luka is a better all around player then Michael Jordan and his hurt not even prime Luka his just a different type of player not very athletic but he doesnt need it because of his size
they need eye glasses...luka by a mile
He ain't even better than Ja Morant... 😂 ESPN just needs a story on whatever, their narrative changes like the weather 😂
White Boi will never be better than ant man
Windy before the series started "Anthony Edwards is the best player in this series". He's hurting just as much as the Wolves fans now
I saw him say that, unbelievable!! So tired of seeing Luka disrespected by these clowns.,
Yep...no wonder he looked like he hated reporting that The Mavericks won again...can you say that's what eating crow looks like
Looks like he is sad? You can really smell the bias..
He been a clown 🤡
Well he is Brian Windfarts for a reason
What happened, ESPN? I thought Ant was "the next Jordan"? Looking like the fools you are now.
He’s 22 😂
Exactly. Stephen A especially.
@@yatewhite6275 He ain't 22 MJ though...
They said next MJ, not Jordan.. maybe they meant Michael Jackson cause Ant about to moonwalk out of the playoffs..
@@ahfei6847 He ain't 22 Luka.
Luca has 32 points 13 assists and 10 rebounds playing on a bad knee that he cant land on or push off from. Sounds like a true mvp to me.
There’s two faces of the league and that’s joker and doncic
My favorite player is WHITE
Where's American white guys in all of this?
@@richardroach7190 Cooper Flagg. And then if you ever heard the likes of Curry with Thompkins, Booker etc etc theres plenty. Unless you mean both parents must be white then it's tough to find.

I'm Indian so you can't say I'm a racist redneck.
@@OAT86doesn't make them any less bi-racial.
Michael Jordan - you are NOT the father 🗣️
😅😅😅 Ant is dope tho, great dude
@@alexseip8233 you guys talk at the cook.out?
I think Larry Bird may have visited Slovenian sometime in the late 90’s though!
@@rodneyperry7940 good one 😂
I think he IS - MJ is known for having underwhelming sons.
Everybody knows if Luka was black then he'd be getting praised by everyone. Edwards was tired, Edwards was in a slump, but absolutely nothing about how Luka who's actually banged up, dropped a 30+ point triple double and a game winner.
Bro I don't think it's a race issue. Could be but I thinks it's a American player deal
Not if he was black but if he was american
Nothing is tight
If u can't defeat mavs at your home with injured Luka
You cannot defeat them in their home
And the fact that Ant is pressured at home, he'll get even immense pressure in Dallas. It's really over for Minnesotta💀
ESPN sounding like the it's a funeral service
Luka killing careers on and off the floors
Who was saying Ant is better than Luka lol. Hide in shame.
@@bihapiAnt: 21 points 5 rebounds 7 assists
Luka: 32 points 13 assists 10 rebounds 1 game winner and wins.
And Luka has 4 triple doubles in the last 5 games.
Luka has 5 All NBA first team awards, Rookie of the year and 1 scoring title and clapped the no 1 seed in 2022 and 2024.
What has Ant achieved 😂.
@@bihapiwhat has Rome and Madagascar history got to do with Basketball lmao.
@@jackthezodiac6136bro wasting words on luka ant debate is honestly disrepectful to Luka, and to many who came before, and to game of basketball in general
@@jackthezodiac6136its like comparing Lebron to Dwade
@@bihapiwhat a fn more on
So much for Ant being Jordan 's son. He shot 5-17 in this game and had the two boneheaded turnovers at the end to throw the game away!
Sounds like LeBron choking 4 times in the final minute including the two worst unforced turnovers of all-time before Ray Allen’s bailout 3. Naz Reid almost bailed him out.
He is Jordan's son - all of them suck at basketball.
@@thsu8damn Lebron got u in a chokehold lmao
As a matter og fact, AE is everything MJ hates. Bodega MJ is far from being a top 5 player in the league.
Did the ESPN reporter Brian Windhorst bet on Minnesota or something the dude is so deadpan serious and sad like he lost money on the game 🤑
Both of them were dry.
He tired
The game winner probably almost gave him a heart attack
What’s really scary is The Mavs have yet to play a “Good Game” as a team in this series.
Theyve led a total of just 15 minutes in both games combined.
Ant is a media appointed super star like booker and Tatum
Like a Kardashian, famous for being famous.
Tatum hasnt been appointed. Hes the most thrashed star. Wouldnt say the same about booker either. Media annointed would be guys like ja and zion.
Tatum is 26 and was just named to his 3rd consecutive All-NBA 1st team. He is a superstar because of his skills and talent - not because of the media.
@@TheRobversion1 muahahah Ja is Jordan comapared to these 2 soft shot chucking choking bums. Healthy Zion is 10 times the player also
@@Sam-db4mr overrated overhyped shot chucking choker. with real defense he plays like WNBA
6:43 - Scott Van Pelt says he won't say goodbye in "Slovenian" but instead says,
"(C) (U) (N)ext (T)ime".
Slick! 😂
Real ones know
Brian Windhorst doesn't seem very neutral here. He looks heartbroken.
He's never liked Luka, called Ant the best player going into this series.
@@Hamarin123456789 he also backed SGA lol

@SwerveCityCrimes 💀

Them Wolves and ESPN fans quiet as Hell

"There's a fine line between confidence and arrogance, young blood!" - Uncle Drew
Espn are clowns who are looking for a new Jordan every season because they don't like Dončič. It's very funny to me personally, a man plays on one leg, plays a triple double, three seconds before the end he scores a decisive basket and where is the new Jordan now - ANT is in crisis, God help you, you don't know what you're talking about
BARKING IN SLOVENIAN HAD ME CRYINGGGGG
Im Glad the world is finally realizing the MAVS are the deal. They are best team since February. LUKA/Kyrie are getting the chip
ALL NBA podcast with legs been saying this
Only legs been on board
Wolves are good enough to get a double digit lead.
They are just too stupid to keep it and finish a game.
Remember they were written off before the Nuggets series started and then after Game 5
Mavs need to win WCF before you get excited about Finals
Jaden McDaniels knew Gobert couldnt guard Luka. Worst mistake lol
Jaden can't guard Luka either. I bet he was just glad he wasn't guarding him at the end
So you think McDaniels can stop Luka? He put up 15pts in the 4th on McDaniels aswell the other night lol.
Luka would have still made that step back 3, honestly.
Luka had an amazing shot in the end that will be remembered. Have to give credit to Naz... That man was INSANE tonight
Without him, Wolves would have lost by 15. And people are quick to blame on Gobert as always, but without him it would be even worse
@@ahfei6847 He almost won the game too, don't forget. The Mavs caught a break on that last shot
@@ahfei6847 I really wish Gobert takes a day off just to make a point cause imma expect points in the paint for the mavs is gonna be lik 90+
Luka also had a 30 point triple double plus the game winning 3 all on bad knee.
@@Byronic19134 Luka is that guy no doubt, tonight Luka and Naz probably both had the best performance of the whole series including the rest of the series.
Rudy DPOY = Dancing Performance Of the Year
Legend has it the Gobert is still spinning from what Steph did to him three years ago.
😂😂😂😂 His legs were jingling. Very bad switch between him and McDaniels
😂😂
Should have forced Luka to drive. At worst, they get to OT
Someone else said this first lol
Lmao "slump" I'd a weird way to describe chocking
This is literally the definition of "the lights are too bright"
I love watching them run around and make excuses when their narrative they’ve pushed starts failing.
lol the look of the dudes face on the thumbnail is the face of someone whose been predicting wolves were gona win 😂
I hope y’all keep that same energy with Anthony Edwards that y’all like to keep with Jayson Tatum. And Edwards has been playing much worse than Tatum over the past few games
I only watched a few of the Celts game this playoffs and Tatum isn't even playing bad, he's just in cruise control most of the time, it's wild they hatin on the dude. Tatum knows his team is much better than the opposing team so no need to spend so much energy for it.
This, Luka and Tatum are two best young players not even close, just bums on TV trying to push first Morant now Ant and anyone else who they like
Mavs in 6 and Tatum will buckle under the pressure!
@@ahoj4480yup the hate for Tatum and Luka is disgusting and suspicious.
@@FazeParticleswell the hate for Tatum is excessive for sure but don't put him with Luka. There's levels to this. Only Giannis and Jokic are comparable with Luka.
Ant man playing like MJ's actual son 😂😂😂
He's playing like Jordan against the Bad Boy Pistons before they softened the rules in his favor . He is the father.
I don’t wanna hear anything windy has to say bro picked ant over luka
Ant “FACE OF THE G LEAGUE” Edwards
Nahhhh 😂
JORDAN!!!!!
@@y0uknowmysteezPOOLE!!
ESPN keep that same face of the league energy
Ant “JORDAN POOLE” Edwards😂😂😂
Ant vs a real defense has bro looking like ben simmons
90% of nowadays recreational soft league looks like Tacko Fall against real defense.
At what point will they give Dallas’ defences some credit, instead of the other team being “off” or “flat”
Let that stay a hidden gem
Ant edwards is getting humbled for all that sh talk.
He still acts like a punk with that cheese smile
Talking heads will do literally anything other than give the Mavericks the respect they deserve. It's always "Oh Kawhi was injured", "Oh OKC is banged up and a weak 1 seed", "Oh Ant is in a slump". Like how many times to the Mavericks have to prove you wrong before you just say that the reason they're winning is because they're the better basketball team and not because of some misfortune of the opposition.
Luka doesn't like tim mcmahon 😂😂😂
he's a smuck the only that has some grounds is Legler others can go and sweep the streets cuz they aint analysts. If Luka would be a little darker Stephen A. Smith would have one hr speech on ESPN along with others.
No one likes that 🐩💩 reporter
I told ppl 6 games, I lied.
Looking like a gentlemen's sweep
Would be good to see a sweep. Same thing like last yr. Lakers coming hot from 2 series and then boom swept in WCF.
It's going to be rocking in Dallas. Wouldn't be surprised if this is 4-0.
Ant was MJ a couple week ago… now luka throwing triple doubles 4 of his last 5 games, hitting a clutch game winner 3 over DPOY, all while obviously hurt… and I swear all I’m hearing is “ants tired” or “4th quarter Kyrie”…
McMahon is so lame for trying to make that moment about him. What a loser question. I can see why Luka doesn’t like him.
?
@@TwoFansPontificating he’s the one who asked Luka about what he said to Gobert after hitting the step back. Just hella cringe in that moment.
@@JasonBrendan-td4qb Teed up a softball question for Luka, nothing cringe. Folks online just want to be mad even after an amazing win
It's not a slump. He clearly just don't know what to do aside from jacking up 3s. 😂
Now y'all know why MJ didn't rely on those and concentrated on his craft
Remember when ESPN was saying ANT was better than Luka and the future face of the league because of six good guys and 4 against a mediocre Suns team. Good times.
Reality : Luka played more minutes than walmart jordan on bleeding knees and hit the game winner.
ESPN : Edwards was tired.
Me : For what?? Chilling on the floor because he couldn't stop a parked car on defense lol
Had Edwards scored that same game winner of Luka, rn they would be saying that he's better than MJ 😂
Walmart Jordan?😃that is very funny👏
The media might implode if Kyrie wins another ring
Mfs are really stupid.. Luka is the best player in the world 🌎 yo hands down...
ESPN MAKING EXCUSES
ESPN, your "next MJ" about to be swept by Uncle Drew and Wes. Let that sink in.
lossing two home games back to back on two series in the playoffs is one of the worst things ever. i dont think there's ever been a championship team that has lose so many home games like that
The DPOY Gobert got lit up like a Christmas tree by Luka! Had my man on rollerskates!
So when are we going to crucify Ant for this slump? Wheres that same energy people had for tatum and brown for ant? And ant better than luke, tatum and brown? please. Maybe in the future but not now. Ant is 30/90. how many games does he get a pass?
Isnt this his first WCF? He’d have to get bumped a couple of times to get the Tatum/Brown treatment…..not the first time around.
@@chrisdragnet722 yeah but no one was anointing the Js the next face of the league or saying they were better than the other established stars of that time. Ant has 1.5 good series and hes anointed . The Js were crucified early in their careers with everyone calling for them to be split up or traded.
They’re talking like ant didn’t have 9 pt and 16 pt games in the last series too this is his norm lol
exactly. and the thing is ant is good and has potential to become a superstar, but they lost me as soon as they started calling him the next mj. kobe and lebron at 22 were already dominating the league, dropping 30-40 pts easily. Ant has single digit scoring games, not even comparable, and maybe 1 in 10 games where he actually makes an impact.
How about give mavs defense credit for once espn?? Always what the losing team does bad smh
Every. Single. Time
Jaden is weak for switching off Luka and leaving Rudy out to dry. You think MJ, Scottie, Kobe, Ron Artest, Bruce Bowen, Tony Allen, Jrue Holiday are ever switching off?
That's why he 2nd defensive team and not first. Luka has him spooked
yeah he probably should have gone rogue and betray the plan the whole team had agreed on. he is that guy
Just like in game 1 right? He’s the one guarding Luka for that step back J to make it 4 pt lead with few secs left
Literally the coverages the coach called. Gobert blew it by not running him off the 3 point line like he was supposed to
He knew Luka would cook him so instead he juat let Gobert get cooked.
Hopefully these bandwagon wolves fans, and the idiot media understand the difference between an all star (Edwards), and a SUPERSTAR (Luka)
the king of comebacks
If Dallas go up 3 it's over.
I agree, Mavs is gonna win this series but Ant could still be the face of...NBA2K25 cover though
Windhorst is pissing me off so badly lmao
BBW in whiteface
Luka is unbelievable. Gifted by God.
He not in a slump he ran out of gas from the Denver series.
Nah he actually just can't get past the Mavs defense.
So close, but we all knew whose gonna win this conference finals, Wolves beat the Defending Champs! Wolves had been here before and they can do it again with the help of Ant Man he's the next Michael Jordan.
Dallas Mavericks in 4.
Is he in a “slump”, or is he choking???
Still all about the 'Wolves. Amazing.
Well the ant experiment was fun while it lasted
Not really.
Last year it was Ja
It’s official, Ant is the most protected and babied star in the NBA.
He can do no wrong according to the media.
“He’s tired” it’s the WFC….EVERYBODY IS TIRED!!!!
ant the kickout kid, mavs defense is insane.
We’re watching the “who’s next” in real time. All the new fellas going at it for the mantel, it’s an amazing thing to watch.
Ant is face of NBA they said!! I guess they forgot Luka existed!
Mavs is gonna win this series but Ant could still be the face of... NBA2K25 cover
Ant also traveled on that play before he turned it over. I didn't notice until now but dude took a whole step before he threw it away.
even if Ant wins this he not ready to be called the next Jordan, far from it
Imagine if Devin booker was having a bad series??? Yall need to keep the same energy towards Ant
Windy a well known Luka hater
Luka Dončić's dance with Rudy Gobert reminds me of the legendary movie "Dances with Wolves" starring Kevin Costner.😂😂😂
Kai knew it was going in!!!!
Ant never be on the same level like Luka
Nice game Dallas
ESPN's basketball analysts have become a joke. Hating on Luka and Jokic and propping up Ant and Shai.
Ant ''Hill'' Edwards
that's what superstars do come up big in the big moments Luka was great when Dallas needed him. he put his team on his back and won the game Minnesota is in trouble if Ant is tired they have nobody they can go too.

my name is luka
I live on the 2nd floor
Anyone here know that song by TI, & Young Buck STOMP where TI was like “nah i ain’t say that, he said that” 😂
I’m just realizing that Luka is similar to Paul Pierce in that both players are kinda slow and not super athletic but both have an ability to create space and hit shots with very little room.
Briam W. Not happy his Wolves is down, i feel youu brah.. 😂😂😂
