This is a great opportunity for him. He probably hasn’t been this open for spot ups in a while with Luka’s playmaking. He’s no slouch either as a backup PG or when Luka is getting doubled full court.
He is never going to shoot like this again. Dante Exum always has a moment here and there every season; a cool pass or tuff move; this year he had a hot night. Not gonna happen again. This is like if Andre Drummond went and had himself a 30pt game.
Both Doncic and Jokic bring that Euro slow-mo pace to the NBA and that shit is like magic. I don't think it's a matter of the defenders getting used to it, it's much more complicated than that. Particularly with Doncic, by moving slower it increases the odds of an open look opening up somewhere. Also, the defender is almost 100% reactive to the ball handler, so the speed really is set by the ball handler and the defender can't do much about that except look silly for getting beat. By going slower and putting emphasis on his moves, it makes this illusion to a defender that he's a sitting duck or that he's making a mistake. But as soon as the defender makes the move he thinks is right to capitalize, Doncic tricks that defender and moves on, and only after the goal is made do his opponents realize the larger plot he used them in. Jokic is an entirely different beast, but similarly knows the importance of owning the pace of play.
nah, it's not about speed, it's about acceleration. It's much easier to accelerate when you're going slow. And you have more control. The split-second a defender is off-balance, you can go. Also, when going slow, defenders look around more for screens because they are more stable. When at speed, you can't really do that. But because of that, defense has less eye on the ballhandler. Which gives them that split second too. Harden was a master because of his stationary dribble, and then accelerate past the player.
I think another way to put it is the tradeoff between control and speed. Specifically how those two aspects create a tempo that your defender has to react to, and thus, giving you choices to make. By "slowing" things down, they're increasing the amount of control and options they have, and it's all still happening fast enough that the defender doesn't have time to break down what the options available are, and gets stuck in a guessing game that has like 5 different choices: a lob, a slow drive, a step back, a screen, a fake... it just makes the base nature of the game much more difficult.
An ordinary day on Serbian basketball game... Exum's ex club - Partizan! You don't have to win just the opposite team. You play that team's stands if you're a guest team and it's not easy. The whole stadium shakes. The flares are on, the club's anthem is sung. The whole stands are ready to f: someone's mother if needed. Unfortunately, sometimes things go very wrong; fans of Crvena Zvezda were attacked in Bologna, Italy in October this year and it was bad. One got hammer in head, the rest of them were his body shield (he was knocked out). Maybe a month later, Crvena Zvezda's stuff were attacked in Croatia. I remember that some journalist asked Jokić if he was afraid, or something like that when Miami fans booed him. He said: "Brother, I played in Serbia"! Some American player went back to the NBA and was asked if he was afraid playing against Kobe (he would guard him). He said: "Man, I played Belgrade fans! What's Kobe for me"?
This is why Euro league players are so good in tough situations. If you can rise to the challenge with that crowd nothing can phase you. It literally unlocked Dante’s offense playing for Partizan and Barcelona.
What Luka has been doing with half the Mavs team out is something noone else has been doing in the NBA lately. Clear MVP so far. You saw the reality of this team when he was out against Grizzlies (and thatwqs with Kyrie, DJJ, Green healthy). Dude is carrying a team that is fielding lineups of 4 summerleqgue perticipants (Lively, Omax, Hardy, Lawson at times) next to him, to 3rd place in the west. Nuggets have been winning against the likes of Chichago, Clippers even without Joker and Murray for example.
@@dannyhernandez265 I mean without him they got blown out by goddamn grizzlies without half the team, so being as good as Blazers would be best case scenario
Luka ball is insane to watch when him and the Mavs are making shots. It’s an open look every play. Either Luka goes one on one or you help and he or someone else finds the open man. Lakers would’ve had a much easier time if Vanderbelt was playing. Prince and Reddish didn’t have the length or strength to defend him. The problem with the Mavs tho is they live and die by the 3, which works most the time but if those 3s aren’t falling the team will fall apart on offense. Exum, Williams and Hardaway combing for 17 3s on 65% isn’t something you can ever rely on
@@BayAreaHoops415 I mean terrible shooting lakers shot 52% from 3, that wont happen every game either. Prince was 5/6, Reaves hit some of the luckiest shoots you will ever see (he always does against Mavs somehow), hell even AD hit a 3 after months. Shooting luck was on Lakers side, refs were trying their best, mavs were out half the team and were on 2nd night if b2b...I would not say they got lucky at all.
I still cant understand how these Europeans Like Jokic and Luka are so slow and clunky looking but they're still the best in the world. Their craftiness and passing is truly some incredible stuff, they're gonna go down as top 10's for sure
@@John.Wick999 I definitely think you're right bro, Luka is a fuckin alien. He definitely has the chance to be the GOAT. And by homeboys logic, if rings are all that matters Bill Russell's 11 rings makes him an undefeatable GOAT. No diss to Bill Russell, but we all know that's not true.
@@John.Wick999 Of course you do. How on earth do you think he gonna eclipse MJ? Bruhh be real. Nobody gonna overtake him. Luka definitely cares about winning a chip. I'm saying he isn't interested in the GOAT talks. He and Jokic just wanna hoop and chill
Luka is what Harden wish he were. Not only is Luka a scoring machine, but he can get his teammates involved and can make all players around him so much better.
very well said i always asked myself what prime harden would look like if he was more efficient and an actual playoff performer... guess luka was the answer
Luka still has Kleber(yes, he's injured), THJ, JG, and Kyrie(yep, injured too). Now you're adding Lively, DJones, Exum, and Grant. Add some sprinkle of Hardy, Holmes, Morris, Omax, Curry , and Lawson at certain times. This Mavs team is dangerous👌. Idk if it's gonna translate into the playoffs but I really like what I'm seeing so far🔥
luka 8 g ames in a row 30+ pts, getting crazy stats, being 3rd in the west, still not enough to be even top3 in mvp race, what a bullshit, he's easily top2 rn
2 best players in the world, they're equally good. Their game is different tho, Luka's better on the ball player he's 6'7 with a great handle, strength etc, Jokic is way taller so he's better off ball ,they will destroy you in different ways but equally effective

This is a well played game by Mavs. It is interesting to see how Lakers would react in their next matchup. I am quite envy of how deep other teams are while Lakers cannot function well when there are 2 or more guys out. They should really have a good look in this game. Even if I am glad seeing LeBron and AD leading the team, I think it is also a bad thing because when one of them is offline, their loss is guaranteed.
@@BoboDetector yeah, lack of depth is their problem, one or two guys injured and they struggle hard Add inconsistency in the mix from DLo and AD. They fall off really hard. As for Bron, I can't blame him too much but he costs some crucial plays and sometimes freethrows. But then, it is still a team game. If the team plays well, they won't get to the point where the result goes down to whether Bron miss a layup or not. Bron and AD scored 60 but that's it, they need more from the team. To be fair, I will give them a chance to see how they will go against Mavs again. Unless Mavs have more dark horses in their roster, I won't be surprised if Lakers will be beaten again. Also, Darvin Ham, damnnit.
There is no doubt that the NBA has the best teams and players by a land slide. No need to compare any Europe team against any NBA team. Never the less, Exum is a good example that playing in Europe for some time can really shape you as a player. Hope we will see more of him.
I don't want to sound like a hater, but the regular season defend intensity is not like in the playoff. When it matters, Luka Doncic haven't prove anything yet. To make it worst, The Mavs actually tried their best to help Doncic by bringing KP and now Kyrie. Until he proves his value in the playoff, his regular season performance is merely stats padding, just like James Harden in The Houston.
You do realize that Lukas game is built for the slow half court playoff style. He’s statistically the second best playoff scorer all time already only behind MJ and we aren’t even talking about Lukas assists and rebounds. You really don’t know what your talking about do you? The playoffs are slower, and half court offense is king. That’s what Luka is god at.
By the way what you say about "not enough shots in rhythm" is what I keep saying. It's why some people think Jordan was not a good shooter. He had a lot of those games throughout his career. It would be interesting to see Curry's 3FG% if we only counted first attempts. 🤔
I understand that there are very few adjustments in game during the regular season but at some point you need to adjust to the guy that is not a star but still cooking, props to Exum for making them pay
Sometimes dangerous party. There's no of special police forces that can handle those guys if shit happen! It's Europe, not just Serbia! Our fans sing club's anthems through the whole game and it goes from father to son. It's like defending your city! It's not even close to the NBA, where fans switch clubs when their favourite players get traded, or the club lose! I can't figure out those fans! What are they standing up to? Individual players? Only winning teams? I saw the video of KD in basketball arena in Greece. The stands were in flares, it was loud and he couldn't believe it! 😂
A few years ago I thought, like most people, that the "Euro Step" was a fad, a bit of a gimmick - a puzzle that the League would eventually figure out. Nope - it's no gimmick, it's a solid tool that, if you can master it, can fuck up even a great defender. It's the basketball equivalent of the change up pitch. Timing and touch can beat speed and athleticism, if you know when and how to use it.
Lebron is more than likely coming to play with Luka after his contract is up with LA. Luka and Kyrie would be Lebrons fantasy teammates. And he’d be able to play until he’s 50 with those two.
Only cuz Lebron wanted that 3 with like a second left. You’d think he’s padding his points ? And if you watched the game you’d know it wasn’t really that close at all. Never felt like LA had a chance in the end.
AD was amazing. As he has been all year. Lukas just has something nobody else has. He’s special the way Lebron was special in his prime. The way Joker is now too.
If anyone has watched basketball since the 80s they know this is exactly what they did. The white guys focus on actually knowing where their players are at all times, angles, and defensive tendencies. It's nice to see the game go back to thoughtful angles and be less about athletic goons just running forward and jumping.
@@Anthonydu01630 That's not even an insult. 1x MVP, 3x scoring champion, 2x assist champion. Luka is bigger and better and thus might achieve even more. And he's only 24.
@@Anthonydu01630 harden never manipulate the lane at the level of Luka. Luka places his body and lets guys blow past, or stand back. Harden drives forward like a bull in a China shop, and MIGHT catch a guy (who was clueless to what the beard was about to do) and get a assist, or he'd do the Harden and dribble twice and shoot straight shit balls
@@Anthonydu01630 what Luka catch on the low post and spreD his legs. His head is on a swivel. I'll teach you basketball if you want like bla k boy, I don't want to, but I will, Son
I don’t understand, Luca doesn’t have a quick first step so why do defenders let him get by then so damn easily with no resistance? It makes zero sense to me and I almost lost my mind watching that last night
Because Luka knows how to flop and get free throws out of hard defense. Luka isn't that man who you want to guard hard. He still get points and free throws on top of that if you will go hard on him.
The strongest strengh that Luka has is the fact that he is making unusual stuff that nobody can predict and so making chaos in enemy defense
It is called intelligence.
Love seeing Exum having success in the NBA!
Yeah it put a smile on my face whenever a player who has suffered an injury bounce back to some extend. Hope he will find his place.
Just goes to show that you should never give up on some, some players just need the right system and timing to reach full potential. Love to see it!
This is a great opportunity for him. He probably hasn’t been this open for spot ups in a while with Luka’s playmaking. He’s no slouch either as a backup PG or when Luka is getting doubled full court.
Luka is James harden with a worse free throw

More like Larry Bird. Magic is more comfortable in high tempo, for slow tempo Larry was Doncic before Doncic

I understand that there are very few adjustments in game during the regular season but at some point you need to adjust to the guy that is not a star but still cooking, props to Exum for making them pay
Now i see why jazz didnt want to give up on exum
Damn no wonder Jokic is bored. Serbia games look like a party
Sometimes dangerous party. There's no of special police forces that can handle those guys if shit happen!
It's Europe, not just Serbia! Our fans sing club's anthems through the whole game and it goes from father to son. It's like defending your city!
It's not even close to the NBA, where fans switch clubs when their favourite players get traded, or the club lose! I can't figure out those fans! What are they standing up to? Individual players? Only winning teams?
I saw the video of KD in basketball arena in Greece. The stands were in flares, it was loud and he couldn't believe it! 😂
A few years ago I thought, like most people, that the "Euro Step" was a fad, a bit of a gimmick - a puzzle that the League would eventually figure out. Nope - it's no gimmick, it's a solid tool that, if you can master it, can fuck up even a great defender. It's the basketball equivalent of the change up pitch. Timing and touch can beat speed and athleticism, if you know when and how to use it.
Make a video about Bogdanovic and 10 3pm pls
Lebron bouta trade the entire Lakers roster for Luka
Lebron is more than likely coming to play with Luka after his contract is up with LA. Luka and Kyrie would be Lebrons fantasy teammates. And he’d be able to play until he’s 50 with those two.
That part, Luka moves slow as hell for a great player. Probably one of the best slow motion players ever lol
Hachimura's defense was horrible, he cost the L for LAL...
LeBron just throwing up bricks didn't help anything.
A rock could outsmart Leflop🤣🤣
0:32 travel
It wasnt a travel he took 2 steps then never moved his pivot foot off the ground look again
@John.Wick999 you can't stop and move after you used your 2 steps.
@@comicsans6487 u can stop after 2 steps and he didn't move his pivot foot
@@John.Wick999 you can't you have to pass or shoot, source that you can? what rule number
@@comicsans6487 damn I just looked it up and ur right u can't stop, that's really dumb though so I assumed u could stop
How many walks and travels do i have to see.
That Serbia's basketball arena goes crazy
Donte Exum dropping 20+ in 2023 is Crazy
„2 miles/hour blow out” 😂 only Luka can do this!
Why u gotta edit brons hand so big though 😂
0:49 where in the world does lebron “helped the defense downlow”?
2:36 maybe got that move from Kyrie. Raises the hand with the ball to fake the defender.
Hardaway is underappreciated
Hit em with the razmatazz-skiddadily-do
Luka made the participation trophies...oops, I mean in season tournament champs look like 9th graders.
They won by 2 on their homecourt. Yes luka is strong lets see who's on top in theend of the season
Only cuz Lebron wanted that 3 with like a second left. You’d think he’s padding his points ? And if you watched the game you’d know it wasn’t really that close at all. Never felt like LA had a chance in the end.
Rui Hachimura was the weak link on the floor during the fourth quarter.
LeBron and AD are two of the best. Luka is at another level. Lukas game is nothing ive seen before. Same for Jokic
LeBron is one of the best AD is not
AD was amazing. As he has been all year. Lukas just has something nobody else has. He’s special the way Lebron was special in his prime. The way Joker is now too.
I believe my dog can outsmart lebron.............
Luka traveled on the second play of this video.😂
How the hell do they watch the game in Serbia with all that fire in the stadium? Don't the sprinklers go off?
LJ looks short af
And old af as well
💪🏾👍🏾
Luka Magic🎉🎉🎉
Where's Christian Wood 👀👀
I like Luca and LeBron’s relationship. It’s almost like LeBron’s passing the torch.
If anyone has watched basketball since the 80s they know this is exactly what they did. The white guys focus on actually knowing where their players are at all times, angles, and defensive tendencies. It's nice to see the game go back to thoughtful angles and be less about athletic goons just running forward and jumping.
Luka is just a bigger white Harden lol stop
@@Anthonydu01630 That's not even an insult. 1x MVP, 3x scoring champion, 2x assist champion. Luka is bigger and better and thus might achieve even more. And he's only 24.
@@Anthonydu01630 harden never manipulate the lane at the level of Luka. Luka places his body and lets guys blow past, or stand back. Harden drives forward like a bull in a China shop, and MIGHT catch a guy (who was clueless to what the beard was about to do) and get a assist, or he'd do the Harden and dribble twice and shoot straight shit balls
@@Anthonydu01630 what Luka catch on the low post and spreD his legs. His head is on a swivel. I'll teach you basketball if you want like bla k boy, I don't want to, but I will, Son
Of course u gotta bring race into it for no reason
I don’t understand, Luca doesn’t have a quick first step so why do defenders let him get by then so damn easily with no resistance? It makes zero sense to me and I almost lost my mind watching that last night
Because Luka knows how to flop and get free throws out of hard defense. Luka isn't that man who you want to guard hard. He still get points and free throws on top of that if you will go hard on him.
Footwork, check larry bird highlights. Another slow but great player was tim duncan.
Solid fundamentals and efficient movement.
LJ is slow on defense and useless
@@johnthonig1692 If you actually watched the game you’d know nobody can touch Luka. The moment you bump him it’s an instant foul
@@panashe5268
Luka is the face of the league, son.
I have been watching LeFraud getting special treatment for 20 years, Ngz
💪🏾👍🏾
Thought exum was a made up player in that particular 2k
2miles an hour 😂😂😂
