Luka Doncic is the best center in the NBA – ESPN impressed by Luka shine with 41 pts, Mavs beat Suns
Ja vaugh was fired on Monday Brooklyn coming out of the All-Star break 11th in the East so plenty of work to be done that’ss lost their last game under vaugh by 50 little success here in Toronto on Thursday that’s Scotty Barnes pouring one in on McCall Bridges and then hits
Him with his own celebration the drama Barnes 14 points eight boards in the first half under two to go in the second RJ barck finding Barnes in transition 46 fast break points allowed by the Nets that’s the most since the stat began track the 96 97 Seasons just under nine to go
In the third things tightening Raptors up one manual quickly to the rack off glass high IQ Raptors back up by three and then the lead would balloon under eight RJ Barrett collect three pass go Raptors up 19 they go want to win this one 121 to
93 spoiling the outset of that era for Kevin Ali in his coaching debut a 28o loss stacked on top of a 50 Point loss a negative 78 Point differential the worst of any two game Span in Net’s franchise history we’ll see how they bounce back
As time is not on their side just two months to play before roll credits back and Ballin some Stars outs on night one of the home stretch Suns and Mavs that means Durant and donic two of the purest scorers the sport has to offer and each one of these games more
Important than the last as the two are not separated by much in the standings how about Kyrie in this one early First floating on him poetry in motion Mavs down three just still a minute to go in the first quarter Mavs down five pass picked off by Kyrie who needs help
Pull got it nav’s down two next possession Irving playing in Rhythm shot in Rhythm got it again Mavs up one Dallas ended the quarter on a 134 run Luca loving it early second now KD getting to his spot knocking it down plus the whistle Sun’s Up Seven after
The made free throw 23 in the game for Durant later in the second quarter man’s down six donic just playing wck League ball you jump I dump and the foul n down three after the free throw not going away 21 in the first half for Luca son sleepwalking out of the half three-point
Lead quickly turning into a thir Point deficit but dein Booker working his team back into it Suns down six after the missed free throw on that and one Booker finished with 358 helpers early fourth Mavs up nine make it 11 Kyrie in transition feeling himself Kyrie finished with 29 Points five triples
Late fourth quarter Luca he plays at his own pace he dictates it all Maverick’s up 12 under 90 now Kyrie on the drive kicks out to Luca got to guard him Na Up 15 they go want to win this one 123 to 113 a season best seven game win streak
Not slowed by the All-Star break donic leading the way 41 points nine rebounds 11 helpers oddly enough that’s his average this season against the Suns 41 points 11 and 1 half helpers a 10-point victory for the 33- win Mavericks CBS Sports NBA analyst John Gonzalez back in the mix he didn’t want
To start till after the All-Star break but ownership said it doesn’t matter we’ve done it now even on an off night we got to get some Doc in the show John we’re contractually obligated here great to be with you as always 3° of Doc let’s go to the Clippers here first match up
With the Thunder contenders really come in a number of shapes and sizes this time of year records say we’re looking at a couple right now history tells us we may be let a stay Bamboozled but SGA shining in this one once again only so much can be gleaned from 48 minutes what
Did you learn from this data point I mean how good is the West Joe like this is a game that a lot of people were looking at because they they’re both chasing in the Western Conference the Minnesota Timberwolves and there’s been I guess a little skepticism and perhaps
Rightly so about this Oklahoma City Thunder team because they’re so young the youngest team in the NBA but I’m telling you they are for real you mentioned SGA he has the most 30o games of anybody in the entire league he’s he’s a superstar he could be an MVP
Maybe not this season but he certainly will be in the future they had all five starters in double figures tonight against the really good Clippers team I mean the Clippers Joe they came in with the best record in the NBA since December the best offense in the NBA
Since December and the Clippers go and hold them to just 107 points or the the Thunder go and hold them to just 100 107 points OKC Is For Real it certainly seems that way and when we look at these two teams in that Contender conversation
Maybe we sort of know what one of these sides is come playoff time the unknown if nothing else entertaining here for OKC allude to it sgaa 40 games of 30 plus points this season leads the league they’ve only played 55 it’s been spectacular to watch him do his thing
And climbing those MVP odds as well let’s head three hours south only one showed up for the second half and I mean second half of this game Luc and the Mavs cruising to Victory here largely in part to a 160 run out of the break I’m sort of enamored by Phoenix the losing
Side in this one they’re dancing with the play in but there’s that lingering belief that they can beat anybody at full strength which side of that dual is more likely in your eyes yeah I mean the Suns when they’re healthy when they’ve got all three guys
Out there can be pretty good right but they didn’t have Beal tonight you can only do so much with KD and bucker Booker had 35 KD had 23 not enough suns have not been good in the fourth quarter all season long they haven’t been good on the road they’ve lost their last six
On the road and they run into an absolute Buzz saw in the Mavericks I was skeptical about Dallas they’re the hottest team in the NBA right now they’ve won seven in a row Kyrie and Luca combined for 70 Lucas one rebound shy of a triple double and that trade
Deadline moves that they made going and getting PJ Washington and Daniel Gafford who I think is criminally underrated didn’t have a great stat line tonight but is really good Shoring up that front line Mavericks are on to something here same record as the Suns right now one
Team’s going in One Direction the Suns wish they were and when Kyrie’s got it going like that it’s going to be a force to be reckon to that onew between he and Luca fully clicking in this one let’s turn our attention to place maybe we didn’t expect to on the early slate we
Also got our first look at the Kevin Ali L Nets and it looked like more of the same going to take some time but time isn’t on their side 27 games and 54 days remain what is the goal here for Ali yes wants to be the full-time head coach but
For the Nets at large yeah for Kevin Oly it’s trying to figure out what this team is going to be right I mean they had not to say that they had expectations for this season but it certainly wasn’t this right I mean they decided not to trade Mel bridg
Is at the trade deadline they didn’t trade and fny Smith at the trade deadline why I have no idea especially on the ladder I like male Bridges a lot but he’s not going to be your number one guy I guess they figured they’re going
To try to go out and get somebody in the off season maybe it’s just as simple as what do you do with Ben Simmons I because right now Kevin Oly bless his heart do you even want the job full-time this is not a good Nets team I don’t
Think it’s going to be for a while we will see how it all plays out but each one more important than the last John Gonzalez great to be with you as always my friend as seen on the CBS Sports Network hobster bounced back after a two-point loss to Drexel last week slaying the
