Celtics stand no chance.
DONT LET THIS SERIES GET BACK TO DALLAS!! WHY NOT US??
It’s going 7 games
I believe, Luka. I believe.
Boston let them win, cause they want to win in Boston. Tatum and Brown took the night off. Monday it’s gonna look wayy different.
Dude wants to lose on Monday so he can fly to Germany asap and enjoy the Euro's in person ⚽️
Playoffs is so irrelevant right now…
They really think they can win all the way, its crazy but I wish them luck 😂😂
Just don't talk to the refs Luka, for the love of Christ.
It's actually so commendable that he's quick to shrug off any injury questions and doesn't take them as an opportunity to talk about them…
We all know he's been playing on one good leg since the OKC series, but I'm yet to see him bring it up as an excuse for anything.
if dallas wins tomorrow its over.
The first guy needs to learn his soccer because Madrid does not play in the euros
Luka has that killer look in his eyes and body language. Brown & Tatum have fear and concern in theirs. Bad JuJu's on the Celtics.
Mavs in 7!!!
Oh the tears if Boston blows this 😂
Luka is locked in. This series is going 7. Even tho it’s 1 win now. I can see the Mavs making history. Kyrie will untap Luka even more
Hope they win the next game
They need to vet reporters' questions.
CELTICS IN 6!!!!!!!!!
ban most non-US journalists same with UFC
0 teams have ever comeback down 3-0 Luka won’t be the first
Luka’s Spanish skills 🎉🎉
Ok, why was a football (soccer) question asked at a Pre-Game 5 NBA conference. Luka was like WTH😵💫🤣??? (Also, I know Luk posted a football match on I.G. lol)
Im here like why are they talking to luka in Spanish, then he answered haha
Crazy when a team wins 1 game and then they say it's going 7 but ok.
Celtics by 20, Celtics intentionally lost game 4 so they could win at home in front of their fans
The most humble team in basketball is the Celtics. These guys could be considered representative of the Dream Team or the USA team. I predict that the Celtics will be the champions on Monday, and you can quote me on that. The Mavericks can cry to their mothers, but since it's Father's Day, they can go cry to their daddies. What we witnessed last Friday was that the Celtics were no-shows because MGM from Vegas threw out their money somewhere for the Celtics to play the way they did.
Keep the question basketball
If they win game 5, I'll be impressed
If Luka becomes the first come back from 0-3 it would add so much to the legend. Also the comments about Boston lost on purpose are just ridiculous. What team decides to be blown out by nearly 50 points in the NBA Finals. Not the smartest thinking 😂
truly tho Just don't talk to the refs Luka, for the love of Christ.
You hate to see the racist Celtics win, but Jason Tatum is dropping 40 tomorrow.
never seen a guy prove media narratives and fans wrong in such a quick turnaround. One game is all it took to make the masses look foolish. If he's so "trash" on defense there's no way he could learn to lock up tatum and brown that way in a few days.
Luka gonna go nuclear tomorrow, if Kyrie joins in then we’re winning
Hej Luka, še en soimenjak kle – ponovite game 4 obrambo in no worries.
Tatum is cursed. Boston is mentally destroyed after that game 4 loss. Dallas in 7.
Lukas weakness is himself, only his emotions can defend him well
These media interview questions are so dumb
Luka is special. When you are that great people are alwys going to try to bring you down. For christ sake the man speaks 4 languages all fluent!
Show your best Luca. All Europe and half of America is hoping you and your team mates smash Boston
If anyone can do it, Luka can.
Wow as a Hispanic, Lukas spanish is amazing
Is Luka required to talk to media before every game? Seems a bit much Imvho.
This game will be over in game 5. KP will play and that’s that.
It’s gonna be tough because now Celtics have 3 games to make adjustments and just have to win one. Mavs won’t have extra games to make another adjustment. But Celtics got blown out so bad. It’s pretty interesting. Who knows what will happen?
Luka is a father!?
the first question was so dumb haha
I remember when Steph Curry went to Boston and dropped 50 on them. Luka is going to have to drop 60 to get the win. I'm expecting an historic performance from "the best player in the world".
If Dallas cant win by 20 or more the referees are going to screw them. This game can't be close in the 4th qtr
Rooting for luka
