Dallas Mavericks have that ‘NEXT MAN UP MENTALITY’ πͺ – Kyrie Irving after Mavs win | NBA on ESPN
Exciting players this league has and he is with Leslie McCaslin right now Leslie Kyrie you missed 12 games how did you make that look so seamless and just your second game back oh goodness I a lot of hard work that goes unseen behind you know uh on the days off or just trying
To get my work in when the team had games and and doing my best to stay ready last game I was trying to feel out my body uh get together my rhythm mentally you know and then come out and and have that aggressive mentality it
Didn’t work out well for us in Utah had to take that hard lesson on thee came out tonight played against a a good Blazers team and we wanted to really show what we’ve been working on um consistently over the last few months you know this is all about building
Injuries have injury bug has caught us so you know that’s unfortunate so there’s his next man up mentality but you know when we’re healthy we’re a tough team to be and um that that’s what we’re striving for towards the end of the season but right now we just got to
Do our best and I’m doing my best and my teammates are supporting me you could tell that that was on your mind when you started the game it seemed like you set the tone with that first three was that the mindset coming into tonight was forget Utah let’s do absolutely I can’t
Be passive at all I mean that’s not my personality I I really want to come out aggressive and set the tone defensively and offensively I’m grateful that I got a chance to do that you and luuka make things look so easy this year and you still haven’t had a ton of playing time
Together you outscored Portland’s team in the first half how are you doing it a lot of hard work that again that goes unseen like behind the scenes and and when we come out here and we’re supporting one another we’re a tough team to be all right Kyrie I hope you
Guys all get healthy good Kyrie Irving 29 Points season High nine rebounds tonight by the way had three-point rebound double doubles last year and was on the cusp of one [Applause] [Applause] tonight
Kyrie Irving joins postgame after dropping 29 PTS, 9 REB and 4 AST in the Dallas Mavericks’ 126-97 win over the Portland Trail Blazers to discuss the win and the mentality the team has had to take on after getting the injury bug.

Kyrie cracks me up trying to sound like a nice guy in interviews we know you a stone cold killer on that court boy!
Luka is the perfect leader… he is the only guy aside from Lebron who can control Kyrie… to bring out the best in Kyrie… Luka deserves the credit
Kyrie genuinely sounds happy in Dallas. You love to see it.
Heβs finally happy you can hear it and see it. Glad heβs in a good mental head space one of the most fun players to watch fr.
People often forget Yahweh was black. Glad to see Kyrie is back in his groove ππ
