I'm now actually scared for Mavs because most of the people doubted them both against Minnesota and OKC and even against the Clippers a lot of people doubted them but now most people root for them
I don't know what you're seeing but.. I feel like most of the media still counts out Mavs against the Celtics. Sure they're giving Mavs the respect they deserve but not a lot of people have the mavs winning the finals.
@@drew318 Fuck no real Luka fans will go to Boston get close to front row seats and keep yelling how much he sucks at him and Kai... That will make game interesting :D
Luka is a freak and so is Kyrie. Luka is a Bird/Magic hybrid and Kyrie kobe/Iverson hybrid. They have a very good supporting cast now and Luka sets the tone. Nothing else will matter.
Luka is Luka! No one compares. Personally, I'm tired of the Bird comparisons-not even similar positions and usage rates. Let Bird be Bird and let Luka create his own identity.
‘Craftiness’ understates it…it’s elite IQ and playmaking matched with a serial killer mentality all wrapped up in a natural scorer…think Bird and Magic hybrid
Storylines are gonna be crazy. Luka vs Porzingis. Porzingis vs Mavs. Kyrie vs Celtics. Kyrie vs The Jays. Luka vs Either Jays on who's really the best young up and coming star.
casuals like you are the reason the media keeps going on extremes instead of having balanced views. Criticizing Rudy Gobert winning DPOY and making money after being scored on during switches on some of the most prolific ball handlers in history is like criticizing shaq for teams sagging on him and fouling him intentionally. Rudy Gobert is one of the most impactful interior defenders of all time and you can't expect him or anyone else in history to guard luka or kai on the perimeter.
@@davidchang9048 bro compared him to Shaq😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 I saw nothing but easy buckets in the paint ALL series from Luka and kyrie and the mavs big men were eating up offensive boards and getting easy 2s the whole series. Rudy clogs up the paint on offense and has very questionable basketball IQ. I also think he’s got a hero complex because there’s absolutely no reason for him to switch on Luka on that game winning play. Bros a liability on offense and searches for heroic plays on defense that lead to problems for his team. Not worth 44 million
@@OrangeJungle Him switching onto Luka that play was not a hero complex issue. The entire series the wolves threw every pick n roll coverage imaginable and Luka picked apart all of them. The only way to have a chance at stopping it was switching and trying to play really good D. Lively forced the switch really well and Gobert got picked apart on THE PERIMETER. For his size Gobert is a pretty good defender on the perimeter although he obviously cannot guard Luka. Gobert played amazing D this series. The reason the wolves lost is because of horrible and inconsistent play from KAT and Edwards. People have to stop criticizing Gobert because although he's not perfect, he's by far the most consistent star on the team and plays his role well. My comparison to Shaq was to make an analogy between the MVP and the DPOY. Shaq was the MVP in 2000 and he deserved it and his salary. He didn't play on the perimeter and did what he was expected to offensively. Conversely, Gobert is being payed for his interior defense. Saying he didn't play good interior defense means you dont know how the sport works or didn't watch the series.
@@davidchang9048this is some hardcore copium to the worst trade in nba history. Rudy is terrible defending the perimeter and year after year he gets bullied in the playoffs because he cant move and has poor iq. The wolves are paying the mad like a superstar when he is the most one dimensional player in the league. He actively hurts his team on offense.
They could have done it in hame 4 but I think word came down to push it one more game. I don't think it's straight scripted. I just think they definitly do stuff like that.
@@rocksmo3384 Part of that was not Jrue's fault though, when a star player gets going like that a coach needs say double at some point, they didn't double once and he was having one of the greatest playoff performances of all time. And Jimmy also had a horrible series against the same bucks team in 2021 and got bounced in the first round, he was just feeling himself in that 2023 series.
@@DunningKrugerJnr Jrue is a great defensive guard and is strong as hell. Probably is that he'll probably end up getting shot over but that isn't exclusively a Jrue issue. Everyone got shot over
Kyrie got luke to get his payback against all the salty fans. Ain’t no better mate than Luka. That man seems to love to go into other peoples building and make it his home court. He got that dawg in him
Its the pace of play. The pacers and celtics were the top 2 offenses and the pacers pace of play was by far the highest in the league. There was defense but because of the pacers style of play it minimizes actual defensive sets and in more transition defense
This dude havent watched the WCF, luka and kyrie were literally the 2 best defenders on the floor for long stretches of the game. Tatun and Brown are 2 chockers, Celtics choach is a bumb, Celtics almost lost some games to a 6th seed Pacers that wouldnt even make the Playoffs if the were in the wester conference, they have the best record in the NBA bc they play on a historicly bad Easter Conference. The Celtics have been a fraud for like 4 years, i dont even know why ppl keep beliving they are wining a chimp. I will actually be surprised if the mavs cant close the series in 5 games.

Because a lot more people would rather root for the Mavs than the Celtics winning, especially Lakers fans
So true 😂

Luka is always going to be the villain man, Luka supporters just have to be loud because he is not praised enough.
@@drew318 Fuck no real Luka fans will go to Boston get close to front row seats and keep yelling how much he sucks at him and Kai... That will make game interesting :D
You forget to mention Luka's size. Shaq said it yesterday; he was surprised by how big and how strong Luka actually is.
It's that old man game😂. Developed it all these years
Luka is a freak and so is Kyrie. Luka is a Bird/Magic hybrid and Kyrie kobe/Iverson hybrid. They have a very good supporting cast now and Luka sets the tone. Nothing else will matter.
That’s a great take
Kyrie is an elite level shooter, too. Did anyone even notice how close he was to 50-40-90 again this year? Came closer than anyone else this year.
Luka is Luka! No one compares. Personally, I'm tired of the Bird comparisons-not even similar positions and usage rates. Let Bird be Bird and let Luka create his own identity.

70 points between 2 players in a close out conference finals game.
Good luck Boston.
Mavs vs Celtics gonna be legendary man kyrie vs Celtics kp vs Dallas luka vs Tatum debates I need a luke ring tho😈 I don't want a tatum ring at all
Maxi being on the floor will help with that porzingis matchup on the perimeter
If Tingus gets his finger out his dingus
Lively is very comfortable defending on the perimeter as well.
Kleber gets relentlessly cooked by jb and jt
@@toinengwyn3935but we need him for interior rim protection to protect slashers like JB and JT
@@StatsLie14 - Kleber won't guard those two. And please stop being lazy and spell out names. Kids these days.... sigh...
I'm happy I recorded this game. I've been watching this twice
Just like 2011 when everyone doubted us!!! Go Mavs
How the fuck did u calculate 2 weeks in between? Been skipping math class heavy i can tell damn
Luka should have "it is now or never" mindset 🔥🔥🔥
Kristaps getting boomed on by gafford I can see it now
Who's calling the games? The ESPN crew?
Storylines are gonna be crazy. Luka vs Porzingis. Porzingis vs Mavs. Kyrie vs Celtics. Kyrie vs The Jays. Luka vs Either Jays on who's really the best young up and coming star.
Whoever thought Rudy Robert was worth 44 million needs to be fired for sure

Mavs in 6!
Never been this early

I always have loved Luka and the Mavs people need to stop the doubt cause they are serious contenders
Jrue is getting a majority of Luka mins imo. Keeps Tatum out of foul trouble while having his length in the passing lanes
Jrue wont guard luka much. He got completely killed by Butler because of his lack of size.

@@rocksmo3384 That was also JB playing completely out of his mind and the Bucks not having anyone outside of Jrue to guard JB
lol, might as well put no one on him

Like superteam right from the start
Then top1 seed
Then team that beat the champs

5:25 and weight!!!!
I picked them (Kyrie to be specific) for this playoff run since we are out of it.
Same

The series with Boston and Indiana seemed to be high scoring games. Was anybody playing defense?

How is the Edwards max only 35?

You do realize that the pacers and celtics swept the mavs in the regular season.
i almost forgot about "choach Mazzulla"

not impressed with the celtics. they got a lot of major injury help and those games were way closer then they should have been.
Rudy worth 8 mil max
DALLAS IN 5.
