  1. Show Kawhi stats in those two series he did that same thing just way more efficient… if Luka didn’t shoot 50% from the FT line in 2021 against them the would have beaten the clippers instead Kawhi Moped the floor with them in Game 6 to force game 7

  2. Warriors almost lose to blazers = can’t make the playoffs. Lakers almost lose to grizzlies with 13 players out = title contenders!

  3. Luka has cooked 33 9 9 in the in season series. Crazy to think that that's down from his averages (although only slightly)

  4. Bro I’m so sicc of yaw and the clippers lmao they definitely ain’t beating the mavs with or without kawhi it will never happen what are we talking about

  5. These "ifs" and "if kawhi is healthy. But Kawhi was glorified as MVP with a ring in that Raptor Vs Warriors less KD less Klay because they're not healthy. Those IFs nullified Kawhi greatness as if he is great according to his lazy fans load management lovers😂😂😂

  6. The media just did Booker's "the Luka special" diss on the MVP 24. Now he finally has great teammates and I think his responce will be longer 👍💪

  7. Tbf Brussard also said he knew for a fact Kawhi was signing with the Lakers or the Raptors so not exactly a good source lol

  8. Nick's just mad steph has as many rings as lebron. That's what all of his warriors hate is based on

  9. I went and looked back at the last 20 or so games that has everyone lauding the Mavs. At face value I’m not impressed. Most of the teams they beat are out or on the play-in fringe and they lost to just about every team with a pulse.

  10. Forget about PG13, Klaw, Luka, Kyrie, the only reason why Luka got those points because Clippers Big Man being Zu his help defense is not good enough when the mavs sets screens on PG & Klaw he don’t come up not only that it’s hard for Zu to graud Luka
    So yes the Clippers have a great team defensively the problem the Clippers in this match would be Zu n whoever playing center
    Also James being James
    Maverick probably is they lineup is small n they gotta play great defense on the Clippers
    This would be a great series

  11. Luka is the MVP, just imagine a team full of injuries through the season many of the starting line up missing 20+ games each including Kyrie takes the team from rank 11 to rank 5 , streak of 30 point triple double 70+ point game – its an insane season and ofc his insane stats. REAL MVP!

  12. Leonard payed last series went 7 hmmm sounds more like he should be worried. Mavs 1st sense the break In defense and Luka will slap them front palm ✋and back palm ✋👏

  13. The main reason why I’m optimistic about Mavs chances in this year’s playoff is, except for THJ and Jaden Hardy, the team plays good-to-great defense, even Luka and Kyrie. Now that their defense is sorted out, they can play virtually every possible tactics. Play big with Gafford, Lively and Kleber rotation. Play small and fast by subbing out Gafford or Lively, and put in Exum or Green, etc

  14. I rarely agree with nick but he’s spot on. Luka puts up monster numbers against 2 of the best wing defenders in the league

  15. This dallas team is going to surprised ALOT of the basketball world with what they added. If both are healthy bro its not even close dallas is eating the flippers alive in 5 games

  16. Brou and Nick have honesty that is rare within major sports-media. Their decent manners are even rarer.

  17. If both teams are healthy, I'm still taking the Mavs in 5. There's just no way that Zubac is gonna be playable this series. He's a liability for the Clippers on defense cause Luka feasts on him and is a big reason why he drops 40 on them every other night. And the only redeeming quality Zubac had against the Mavs was he could get them a LOT of 2nd chance points. That's not gonna be the case with Gafford & Lively. So Zubac is gonna be UNPLAYABLE.

    And once the Clippers go small-ball…the series is cooked. They might as well start planning their fishing trips.
