Derrick Jones jr and PJ Washington are giving some serious 2023 Bruce Brown/Aaron Gordon energy this postseason, thats all ima say lol the mavs and wolves supporting casts are both playing such great basketball, this should be a great series!
-- Agree. Denver this year didn't have enough in Game 7. Bruce Brown and old man Jeff Green, gone. Mavs' front office get a lot of credit to DJJ and PJ.
@@AngelValdez-mr3fq you must be special son, the point being made was that those two last year played a huge part as role players in the nuggets title run last year. If you are so thick that you can't understand this is a compliment and all players involved are deserving then just log tf off because you not only clearly lack basic reading comprehension skills but also clearly don't know anything about basketball.
What a time to be a Luka/Mavs fan. I just love the defensive identity they've taken up with the coaching under Kidd, who deserves an apology from Mavs fans for all the hate he was getting in the middle of the season, one just as loud as the disrespect. Love the content as always, man. You're on 🔥
I would agree with you that we owe Kidd an apology, but I need to see it again. I think you can easily make the argument that the team got much better and not the coaching. The difference between getting to start Lively or Gafford and not having Powell out there is crazy. But I will give him credit for now as he’s doing it. It’s also good to remember that the NBA is weird with the coaches. Doc gets all the jobs and yet Mark Jackson can’t seem to get one? Just food for thought.
@@Rickiwitdasticki I can definitely see where you're coming from. His rotations during the middle of the season were indeed very questionable, and that could get to me from time to time. We have more tools at our disposal, but I do think in especially Luka and Kyrie's defense, we can find some of J. Kidd's work. Excited to see where they go from here.
I'll be the first to apologize to Kidd. I despised that guy. We finally started winning when he'd do the exact opposite of what he normally would. Maybe he realized that and grew as a coach.
For the NBA as a whole, the Thunder's performance and $35 million in cap space are worrisome. They also don't need to lose a single rotation player. Exciting future 🔥
He would not have made that lay up if foul wasn’t called lol. Everyone stopped. His defender didn’t hustle for the ball when he was closer to the rim when the ball was released
I feel like PJ had one of his best defensive games, but people only want to talk about his 9 points which happened to be some of the most crucial points in game 6
How fascinating that this loss of OKC is like the loss of the Nuggets, not hitting open 3s and poor offensive boards, the Star starter Jokic and Murray (starlike) did a great job, but the supporting cast just wasn't there.
1:22 this play i cant complain about defense, cause it worked. But offense, luka can see. He was slow to react to plan sight double.. the dude in the corner goofy.. im watching the play but i dont wanna move up to the ball handler to give him another option to pass so he can free himself. No iq
at the end there, i think some more credit needs to be given to kyrie for his 2nd half performance. its going under appreciated rn but he injected a lot of life into that dallas team in the 3rd&4th
1:11 this defensive play was dum. First off, im not closing out on a pick play that high up away from the basket.. im stayin below the 3 so i can watch that high as pick and see both players and peripheral sight. 2ndly, why no one had the thought of "where did the picker go?". Like bad iq right there
I hope people can stop saying that kyrie is just playing off of Luka’s gravity attacking bent defenses and close outs. This whole entire series he was hard hedged in blitzed.😂
Shai cost Thunder this game. He knows he fouled PJ, which is fine coz that's part of the game, it came from a good defense. But he should've told the coaching staff not to challenge the call because it'll cost them their last time out. They needed that timeout.
I doubt it, I love luka but they'll say anything to discredit him, if he gets the chip this year they'll say he got carried by role players while faking injuries idgi he already has the crown imho
Luka is the best player in the league when he wins the chip and FMVP he will be regarded as the best player in the league, when Mavs go b2b next season that will be a further proof that he is the best and the future GOAT
1:35 no iq. They doubling crazy. My man set a pick.. i can hear dude close on my left. Let me pass it to the back since ik he is behinde me.. if need to, ill jump pass it back since im taller then my defender.. but nope. Besides, luka is slow
@vidicisthegoat5444 that'll be crazy but this playoffs exposed just how bad jokic is on that interior defense. Nuggets should consider signing an athletic center and add more depth. Trading away mpj might give them that
@@jjcometa9333 Jokic’s interior defence wasnt a problem last night if anything its his perimeter defence thats worse than his interior. As for Mpj I dont think they should ever trade him. They need his size and shooting. Hes shot terribly this series but so has Murray but Murray was a liability defensively. I think if you trade either you trade murray but they really shouldnt trade either. They should let Kcp go in the offseason or trade him if he resigns and try to get something in return for P Wat and Zeke.
Nooo..this is great...imagine the WOLVES ...they are gonna wanna see what Luka does...but I think after enxountering Jokic....hmmmmmm...I hooe the WOLVES dont play with their MEAT...
I love how you kept talking about shots not falling for the thunders and did not show one instance where the Mavs also missed shots, The entire first half the mavs missed a lot of shots PJ wasn’t hitting shots neither was Kyrie and Hardy yet somehow that escapes you? Crazy how you’re trying to paint a narrative of OKC’s role players not hitting their shots while mavs role players were when in fact in the first half the main reason OKC were up were because that was what was happening to the Mavs, People might think this is great analysis but there is a very clear bias towards painting a particular scenario that just did not happen
You mean when I said “the script completely flipped” and “all of a sudden the Mavs started making shots that they were missing” ? You clearly watched this with a preconceived notion because I talked about everything you mentioned in your comment. Thanks for watching though! Edit: Looking back, the entire 1st half of this video was on OKC’s defensive strategy and how they successfully forced role players into either making decisions or making shots. So now I’m pretty certain you didn’t even watch before drawing this conclusion. 🫡
Tbh OKC isnt even that good unless they get to punish teams do dumb mistakes over and over like the Mavs did most of the Games , they lose in Rebounding and Steals usually . like if OKC had to play Wolves or Nuggets that sht be done in 4 they wouldve got abused after Game1 🤣🤣
shai just average. overrated. always uses his elbows on defenders. refs are just turning a blind eye on it. and if he doesn't have free throws, he's just gonna average around 20 pts maybe.
Luka loves different defenses looks to try and contain the mvp. He just laughs and says watch this. He really needs to stop feeding kyrie's ego and tell him to stop playing scared and play 4. This is probably kyrie's last chance for a super star to carry his ass. Luka's value goes up. kyrie's value goes down. Play hard 4 or bye bye. What team wants a part time player
What are you on? Kyrie has been instrumental this season, a vet CHAMP leader who's hit big shots his whole life. He's exactly what Luka needs to grow up mentally.
This could hurt DALLAS..cuz its the mental and the experience...what ya showing is a VITAL FLAW...not having the basics...will hurt any team...its the playoffa..great take..great take
How's it a vital flaw? They have been extremely tough and quick to adapt all post season. Pretty much every team left in the playoffs lives and dies by their roleplayers
OKC is actually garbage. Woof woof all the way back to OKC. Literally the ugliest team ever assembled. Chet’s a literal twig out there he has to stiff arm you to screen you💀
Ya kjow what you vring me to think..fuck scouting repirts.its about you as a player are YALL COMMUNICATING...CINNECTING..hmmm something to look at..bexause i think all players are locjed in but and i hope...the players are lookin at THIS...and conversating...because DEFENSE us the convo
Mac’s shot 47% percent from three and only won by one point. Considering SGA, that Chet and J-Dub will only get better and we have the Dorture chamber (maybe even a Dorture chamber 2.0 with Cason Wallace)I’d say the Thunder are solid for years to come. Mac’s got lucky OKC missed so many shots this series. Had they shot the ball even just a little better it would’ve been very different.

Great video brother
The supporting cast are exactly what the doctor ordered. MAVS
The fact that the Mavs were able to adapt to their opponents bodes well for them to make it all the way. Mavs in 6

OKC need pursue Lauri Markannen this coming off-season 😤😤😤😤
RUFF RUFF RUFF RUFFF
let's goooooo Mavs
Now this is what ESPN should be.
You , Goat, and awful coaching should do a collab vid
it's crazy that we could have Sengun and lively on the same team as Chet.
a hardwood classic!
For anyone who still thinks that last call isn't a foul kyrie catches the shot and gets it off before the buzzer.
If Luka stays this unselfish when he's double teamed he'll have alot more triple doubles.
Man shai is so fucking good
see ya next season 👋🏻
3:36 no need to double woth 8 sec on the clocl that far away from the basket. Stay with man
Offseason is gonna be HUGE !! Lauri or alf Simmons coming 🥲🔥🔥
With balanced and fair whistle on both sides MAVS win this games very comfortably.

at the end there, i think some more credit needs to be given to kyrie for his 2nd half performance. its going under appreciated rn but he injected a lot of life into that dallas team in the 3rd&4th
