  1. Mavs might sweep the wolves. No one can defend Kyrie and Luka… That Mavs adjustment on OKC saw the potential of their confidence.

  2. Luka and Kyrie and PJ Washington have to have great games every night in my opinion for them to beat the wolves bcuz they play great Dfense and the Wolves can score

  3. Can Ant man check Kyle and Scire efficiently in which we know he can like he did Jamal Murray but well see

  4. If Conley is Guarding Kyrie. Kyrie will eat him alive. Don't brag about Mcdaniels will be the defensive stopper of Luka.. Nobody, can stop Luka even if Luka is hurting. Mavs in 6.

    First Round: Mavs in 6
    2nd Round: Mavs in 6
    WCF: Mavs in 6

    Triple 6, beybe!

    PS: Don't let Tony Brothers be the referee…

  5. The NBA got what it wanted. Edwards moving on. The next face of the NBA the media has been pushing for the past few months.

  6. I don’t know how to make public survey so I’m just curious on opinions

    2023-24 NBA playoff team with worst luck
    A. knicks
    B. 76ers
    C. Clippers
    D. Lakers

    2023-34 Non playoff team worst luck
    A. Hornets
    B. Wizards
    C. Detroit
    D. Spurs

  7. Plot twist: Jokic had a vision and message from Dallas Mav's horse logo last night, it told Nikola that this year is Mavs to win it all, whoever faces Mavs in West conference finals will be swept by them

  8. “Who do you LIKE?” No talk about offensive and defensive schemes, adjustments necessary to counter new opponent, skills sets of teams and players, coaching, etc etc. Who do you like, what is your feeling?
    Sportaintement, not sports (analysis) show. To be even more entertaining, all and each one of them should bet 1m $ of their own money on the team they like…
