Here are some sore loser comments made by the writer:
*”Kyrie Irving is mostly great at being great when no one really needs him, so him going wild with a big Maverick’s lead is echte Kyrie” -* Wtf is he saying? Did this guy not watch all the clutch performances from Kyrie this season?? This is what I call close-minded journalism.
​
*”The Mavs will go as far as Luka Doncic takes them, and not a step, not an inch, farther. Because Kyrie won’t drag them forward when the chips are down, and none of Luka’s domestiques will drag them along in tough games either.”* \- After the trade, there were games where Luka wasn’t giving us the scoring help that he usually does, and we had the rest of the team pick up the pieces and will the Mavs to win. No doubt, we need every inch, every ounce of Luka to get us the chip, but this statement is blatantly wrong. Oh, and the Kyrie shade again.
​
*”Hope that profile in cowardice was worth it, Jason.” -* Putting Luka back in, even though, the Mavs had a comfortable lead is not being a coward. There might be other words to describe it, but certainly not cowardice. Feels like this guy was waiting to use that word against Kidd.

It really seems like anyone can become a journalist
echte Kyrie? This guy dutch lol?
The media’s hatred of Kyrie is real
Such an asshole to be writing stupid takes. Bitterness and saltiness combined.
The Mavs slapped them around like an orca toying with a baby seal. Some saltiness should be expected. Lap up their tears and flip the bird in their faces.
This guy clearly didn’t watch any games except last night. Ramadan Kai has been exceptional especially in the 2nd half.
People still hate kyrie like this in 2024 lmao shameless
Why amplify it by spreading the link and giving them clicks? It’s just a fan essay, no one knew or cared before you posted.
Thanks for driving more clicks to this shit article
*Sees SBNation*
Oh no, my brother, you played yourself…
They won 11 straight just to get to 11th place. Let them cry.
Just wait till we beat them again next Sunday
Wait Luka really got injured again? I didn’t see that
How can any self respecting basketball fan say that about Kyrie with a straight face?
All of that is garbage and doesn’t make any sense
Do some of y’all just seek this stuff out? I don’t get it. I would never know this existed if you didn’t go on the Rockets specific SB Nation then post it here.
This is what living in Oregon does to people. Can’t talk about anything without dialing the hyperbole up to 11. Yes, Xiane, you may be a “7th generation Texan”, but you write like a Portland blogger.
this is a houston based blog at best. I was at the game. Luka went batshit crazy and this just sounds like another dejected rockets fan peeling for any sort of excuse. truly pathetic
Houston’s 11 game streak was very good but they only beat one really good team during the whole thing.
I’m perfectly fine with this. Poke the bear, the bear will wow you with his trick shot off the jumbotron and then maul you when you don’t expect it. And then Kyrie will come by and say….”You got knocked the f*ck out!”. That’s how they roll. This writer has an axe to grind, but the Lukai bond is stronger than his axe.
The takes from nationally broadcasted ESPN are not worth listening to, let alone the takes from http://www.thedreamshake.com
Wild that this wouldn’t be an issue anyone cared about if Mavs fans weren’t suddenly super interested in trolling other fanbases’ communities just because the team is having a good stretch.
