TNT crew reacts to Mavericks vs Nets Highlights

>> IT IS TIME FOR A GAME BREAK. AND IT STARTED OFF WITH THIS. >> WOW. >> I DON’T KNOW, HE HAD THAT GET UP. YEAH HE HAD A LOT TONIGHT KYRIE IRVING 36 POINTS BACK THE CLOCK THING. >> ONE YEAR REMOVED FROM BEING TRADED FROM BROOKLYN TO DALLAS. HE HELPS THE

MAVERICKS GO INTO THE BARCLAYS CENTER AND WIN BY 12. AND EMPHATIC DUNK THERE BY KYRIE IRVING. HE DROPPED 36 LUKA HAD 35 AND 18 REBOUNDS. AND NINE ASSISTS. I’M NOT SURE IF THAT’S A COMMENT. MORE ON THE BROOKLYN NETS REBOUNDING OR LUKA JUST BALLING OUT. EITHER WAY, AN UNBELIEVABLE PERFORMANCE IN OUR FIRST

GAME. SHAQUILLE O’NEAL, CANDACE PARKER, JAMAL CRAWFORD AND WE WILL HAVE MORE OF THIS GAME IN JUST A SECOND. BUT SOME EXCITING NEWS HERE AT THE NETWORK. NBA ALL STAR WEEK IS COMING IN. TRUE TV. THAT’S RIGHT. TRUE TV HAS A STARTING LINEUP OF HOOPS HOCKEY AND HYPE. RELIVE THE INSIDE

MONDAY ON TRUE TV. LET’S TAKE A LOOK AT OUR EARLY GAME HIGHLIGHTS. DALLAS MAVERICKS, BROOKLYN NETS AND LUKA. WHAT DO YOU KEEP THE MASK ON FOR THE WHOLE TIME? >> I’M SAY $100, I BET. NO OKAY. I’M NOT GOING TO TAKE THAT BACK. >> FIRST OFF KYRIE IRVING

YOU KNOW WHEN YOU COME BACK TO THE PLACE THAT YOU USED TO PLAY TRADED YOU YOU LEFT WHATEVER. >> YOU ALWAYS WANT TO REMIND THEM THAT HEY YOU LET SOMETHING SPECIAL GET AWAY KYRIE FROM ‘3. >> AND THEN LUKA USING HIS SIZE NAVIGATING IN OFF THE GLASS. >> THIS IS A BAD BOY.

>> HE IS A BAD BOY. >> WE COOL WITH IT. >> DALLAS UP BY NINE KYRIE TWO. MUCH SPACE. >> THAT’S A SCARY ISLAND TO BE ON KYRIE. >> THEN AGAIN. FINISHING LEVEL TWO. LEVEL TWO. HE HAD 21 IN THE FIRST HALF I KNOW IF THERE’S BEEN ANY PLAYER

THAT HAS THAT KIND OF LAY UP PACKAGE ROD STRICKLAND STOP IT. >> SEE RIGHT THERE GUYS. SHOUT OUT ROD STRICKLAND JAMAL DO YOU AGREE OR WOULD YOU TAKE KYRIE OVER ROD IN TERMS OF THE LAYUPS. >> WELL KYRIE YOU GOT ANYONE . >> THERE’S ONE OTHER. YOU JUST SAID IT’S NOT ANYONE

THAT’S WHO. BUT THAT ONE. >> NO NOBODY SAW THAT COMING. YEAH I AIN’T I AIN’T KNOW HE STILL HAD THAT. >> YEAH. THAT IS VERY IMPRESSIVE 22 POINTS. NO HE’S PHENOMENAL I GOT CAUGHT UP IN THE MOMENT I’M YOUNG. THEN NO WAY. LUKA FROM THE LOGO. >> LET HIM TOUCH IT WITH HIS

LEFT FROM WATER STREET. >> THE BUCKET. >> YES. BAD HEADBAND LUKA BROOKLYN DID WIN THE FOURTH QUARTER. >> THEY DID MAKE IT CLOSE. MICHAEL BRIDGES, HE KNOCKS DOWN THE TRIPLE. BEN SIMMONS GOING TO FIND MIKAL BRIDGES ONE MORE TIME FOR THE THREE. AND NOW THEY’RE DOWN 12. SO

IT DID GET COMPETITIVE FOR A BRIEF MOMENT. SPENCER DINWIDDIE FOR VOTING FINDING FINISHING. TOUCH. AND FOUR MINUTES LEFT KYRIE DOES IT AGAIN. >> BACK ATCHA KYRIE AGAIN 36 LUKA 35. >> THE COMBINED FOR 71 POINTS. THIS IS THE EIGHTH TIME THAT KYRIE AND LUKA BOTH GO FOR 30. PLUS THE

RECORD IN THOSE EIGHT GAMES FOUR AND FOUR. NOT AS GOOD AS I WOULD HAVE THOUGHT. BUT DALLAS WINS BACK TO BACK GAMES FOR THE FIRST TIME IN NEARLY A MONTH. BROOKLYN, AFTER A PRETTY STRONG START TO THE SEASON, SAYS SEVEN AND 20 IN THEIR LAST 27 GAMES. UH, AMIDST ALL THE

SOMEWHAT TURMOIL THAT I DON’T KNOW IS ALWAYS FOUNDED, YOU HAVE ALWAYS BEEN A KYRIE GUY. YOU’VE ALWAYS LOVED THE WAY HE’S HANDLED THE WAY HE SEES THE GAME. THIS HAD TO BE VERY VALIDATING TO THE TEAM THAT TRADED HIM. >> FOR SURE. >> YOU COULD TELL HE HAD CONTROLLED HIS EMOTIONS THE

WHOLE GAME. LIKE HE HE PLAYED WITH THE EMOTION. BUT HE WASN’T EMOTION. NO. AND THE WAY HE PLAYED, HE WAS JUST A COLD HEARTED SNAKE TONIGHT KYRIE IS INTERESTING AND HE’S ONE OF THE BEST PLAYERS IN ONE ON ONE HISTORY BECAUSE HE’S NOT. YOU’RE NOT WORRIED ABOUT STOPPING HIM. YOU JUST DON’T

WANT TO GET EMBARRASSED. SO HE’S ALREADY SEPARATED THAT FROM YOU. HE’S LIKE YOU KNOW WHAT IF HE TAKES A MID-RANGE JUMPER OR A PULL UP JUMPER, I’VE DONE MY JOB. I DON’T WANT TO GET ON THAT ISLAND. AND HE COULD PUT YOU ON THAT ISLAND AND TRICK BAG AT ALL

TIMES. AND HE’S ONE OF THE MOST FUN PLAYERS TO EVER WATCH. >> HE HAS THAT LATE LAYUP FLOAT WHERE HE JUST KIND OF HANGS IN THE AIR AND FINDS A GAP AND FINISHES WHEN YOU’RE ON DEFENSE, YOU’RE SAYING IF HE TAKES A MID RANGE OR A CONTESTED THREE, THAT’S A WIN FOR ME.

>> HE’LL PROBABLY MAKE IT. BUT I’M NOT GETTING EMBARRASSED LIKE I WOULD IF HE GOT INTO HIS BAG. AND THAT’S WHAT MAKES HIM SPECIAL. >> WE ARE ALWAYS TALKING ABOUT THE FUTURE HISTORY OF LUKA DONCIC. WE CAN ALSO APPRECIATE THE PRESENT GLORY OF LUKA DONCIC. WHERE WERE WE TONIGHT WITH A STAT LINE

OF 35 AND 18 AND NINE MISSING? >> PLAYED GREAT. YOU KNOW, PLAYERS WHO PLAY WITH THE MASK AND JUST SHOWED HIS TOUGHNESS. I CAN PLAY THIS GAME. AND AGAIN HE’S A GUY YOU KNOW YOU HAVE TO BE A SPECIAL PLAYER THAT HEY I’M GOING TO PLAY MY PACE I’M

GOING TO DO WHAT I WANT. I WANT TO GET TO MY SPOT AND I CAN PLAY ALL TYPES OF GAME. I CAN PLAY THE NEXT GAME. YOU WANT TO TALK TRASH AND GET PHYSICAL. I CAN GET PHYSICAL TO YOU. THE BEST THING I LIKE ABOUT HIS GAME, EVEN MYSELF, HE’S STRAIGHT

DOG, NO PUNK IN THIS GAME. I REALLY LOVE TO WATCH HIS KID PLAY. AND AGAIN, IF HE’S CONSISTENT, HE’S DOING THIS THE NEXT SIX, SEVEN, EIGHT, NINE, TEN YEARS IN A ROW. THEN WE CAN START THROWING. YOU KNOW, HE’S BETTER THAN DIRK AND HE’S ONE OF THE GREATEST PLAYERS. BUT IN

THIS ERA HE IS A GREAT PLAYER TO WATCH. >> I JUST THINK LUKE IS THE TYPE OF GUY THAT LIKE IF YOU LOOK AT WHEN HE GOT 70, HE HAD 15, 16 ASSISTS, RIGHT? SO HE’S A GUY THAT CAN PICK YOU APART OFFENSIVELY, BUT THEN HE’LL TOY WITH THE DEFENSE BECAUSE YOU CAN’T

DOUBLE BECAUSE HE’LL STILL MAKE THE GREAT BASKETBALL PLAY. AND SO I ALWAYS RESPECT THAT HE CAN GET A BUCKET ANY TIME HE WANTS. BUT HE MAKES THE SMART BASKETBALL READ AND THE SMART BASKETBALL PLAY. AND THAT’S WHAT MAKES HIM SO DEADLY. IS YOU KNOW, HE CAN PASS AND FACILITATE JUST AS

GOOD AS HE CAN SCORE. >> LUKE IS SUCH A SAVANT BECAUSE IF HE DOESN’T GET THOSE 14 ASSISTS WHEN HE HAS 70, HE PROBABLY ONLY GETS 50 POINTS WITH FIVE ASSISTS. BUT HE’S MANIPULATED THE GAME IN A WAY THAT NOW WHEN I’M WATCHING HIM, IT’S NOT EVEN ABOUT HIM. WHO CAN

BOTHER HIM BECAUSE HE PLAYS WITH SUCH A PEACE THAT I HAVEN’T SEEN MANY PEOPLE BOTHER HIM IN HIS CAREER, AND THAT’S WHAT MAKES HIM SPECIAL. >> AND THE THING ABOUT LUKA, TOO, IS, YOU KNOW, BEFORE DWIGHT POWELL GOT HURT, THEIR PICK AND ROLL WAS ONE OF THE BEST IN THE LEAGUE.

AND SO THIS IS HE’S DOING THIS WITHOUT A ROLLING BIG YEAH. HE DIDN’T HAVE LIVELY DIDN’T HAVE LIVELY TONIGHT. SO I THINK ONCE THE MAVS ARE ABLE TO ADD LIVELY BACK IN THE CREW OR TO GET SOMEBODY THAT’S LIKE THAT PICK AND ROLL PLAYER THAT THEY THOUGHT PORZINGIS WAS WAS

GOING TO BE FOR HIM. RIGHT I THINK IT JUST MAKES HIM EVEN MORE DEADLY. >> IT’S FUNNY PEOPLE USED TO GET UPSET THAT JAMES HARDEN DIDN’T GET ENOUGH LOVE WHEN LUKA WOULD GET THIS LOVE. HARDEN AND LUKA BOTH HAVE THAT IMPACT ON ROLLING BIG MEN WHERE THEY TURN A GUY

FROM A GOOD PLAYER TO A GREAT PLAYER, JUST THEIR ABILITY TO FIND HIM. LUKA, BY THE WAY, 43
