In this clip, JJ Redick and Tim Legler talk about the early play of Luka Doncic, Kyrie Irving, Dereck Lively and The Dallas Mavericks. If he’s playing this good on offense, do the Mavs even need to play great defense?

Woooooooooo
A ray of light in the darkness 🍭
Luka magic is gonna be the future of the league
Thank You JJ for acknowledging him because Luka and Jokic is the best players in the league in my opinion the game just look to easy for them
This pod sucks off every white player
It's crazy to think that people still don't get how different he is. Europeans who watched ball knew he was coming and aren't that surprised already, yet there's a big cohort of people that just don't get it
My favorite part is Luka looks happy to play again
Tha NBA and people around it have still not realized what a generational talent Luka Doncic is. They are talking about Victor beeing the greatest NBA prospect ever and do not realize that the biggest talent basketball has ever seen is playing right in front their eyes in Luka Doncic. Luka doninated Europe on a very different level and from a european perspective it is absurd to claim victor is the better prospect. So far, Luka is on the way to become a top 3 player of all time, he is already a hall of famer even if he ends his career this second, he had the best start to a NBA career we have ever seen, while draging teams that would be the worst team in the league without him to the WCF final.
It's refreshing to see JJ redick soo nice and kind to people on his podcast … First take .. that's another story lol 😂
Small sample size but these first 2 games he's actually played better on defense. As far the ref thing he isn't nearly as bad as he was last season, hell the other night he told Grant to quit chirping at the refs and get back to the bench during a timeout. We'll see how long it lasts as the season goes on.
Honestly Luka counting stats don't move me anymore unless it results in anything.
Get Kenyon Martin on the pod. I think we would all like him to go deeper on his Luka take. Arenas was too timid to do anything, so he just went for "production wise" like a freaking bi a tch. But hey, Luka would be cooked one on one, which as we all know translates to rings 🙂 😉
Good summation of Luka's game: Exceptional skill, strength and clutch play but balanced with the criticism that he does take possessions off on defence.
I've noticed a larger defensive effort from Luka so far. Plenty of room for improvement of course 🙂
Luka needs to commit to the gym and to defense and break up with the pastry and the cheeseburger.
I know its only 2 games but you gotta do better analysis if youre a professional analyst. Luka so far has been better on defense. He even locked up Bridges and brooklyn still keep on switching Luka but Luka is doing good defensively that they just stop. You cant really see things good from someone if you hate him

Lukas defense sucks against quicker guards but his post defence rocks and hes acceptable against other forwards i just dont understand the slander
James Harden 2.0
Won't win a title with all that dribble dribble dribble like Charles say.
