Duel MVP ~ Kyrie & Luka
They were abusing the hell out of Gobert LOL
That was nasty. Absolute prime cooking from start to finish
How do you have 20 points in first quarter but the last 3 qtr your averaging six pointsππ
Mavs lost game 4, just because Lively injury
Man, I was going to root for the Mavs to win the chip cause I'm genuinely a fan of the team and Luka, but you fans are obnoxious. Gotta put someone down just cause he showed some confidence at a young age, and coming from the team that has Luka (who also gets unjust hate from other fans)
Sorry to say, but you guys might've swayed fate to the Celtics' side, and I fucking HATE the Celtics lol GL to Tatum, Brown, and the rest of the men in green. Sorry Luka, your fans might've cursed you again this year…

4:35 bruh kyrie throw out and that snatch back vicious as hell
4:54 travel??? i love kyrie and all but come on. timberwolves vs refs
They were making gobert look like a fool even when he was off ball they jus had him out of position the mavs had a great game plan j.Kidd is a great coach
The Celtics are going to have their hands full with these two. Both very powerful weapons.
Anthony Edwards: IM DA GOATTTTT!
They're not doing this to the Boston Celticsππ
celtics only faced 4th and below in playoffs
they matched
heat (8th)
cavs (4th) first round went 7 games
pacers (6th) they stole the conf semis from knicks with a 7 game performance
and now mavs (5th)
which mavs only faced top contenders 4th and above
mavs matched
clippers (4th)
thunder (1st) favored to win against mavs
wolves (3rd) favored to win against mavs, the next "mj" hype
and now celtics (1st)
Luka getting a chip this year
kyrie's longevity is underrated fr
KAY shared 41 pts alongside LBJ and now 36 with Luka.
I've been watching Luka since he played for Spain (where my wife is from) and I've always loved Kyrie. Being from Dallas and seeing them both on π₯ feels like getting a Christmas present and bday gift right after (my bday is Dec 26). π
And edwards 60 trash talks π
I'm starting to wonder did Luka and Kyrie have a bet on a banked shot in this game, and shooting a 3 right in Ant and KAT's face.
