  1. LeTank called the Lakers team as constructed the best defensive team in the league on their way to winning last years' in season tournament. Imagine if Luka had AD and Vandebilt with a backcourt who can each give you 20-25 points on any giving night.

  2. 2015? 🤣 LeBron took 33 shots a game in that series. You forgot JR Smith, a talent who could win a dunk contest and a 3 point contest. BTW, they got JR, Mozgov, and Shumpert at the trade deadline. Call it the LeFix. Mozgov had a 29 rebound game against the Warriors that very year.

  3. It’s crazy having a lakers fan and lebron fan talking about the mavs😂 could they not find two Mavs fans to do the show in Fort Worth-Dallas?

  4. JR was a 38% 3 pt shooter (You treat him like Klay). Shumpert was 34% from 3 that year. Both had guarded Kobe in high leverage moments. The real question. How did Cleveland get that much talent at the trade deadline without giving up anything.

  5. Nick, the bubble was pick up game easy with no fans. See: The Nuggets with two 3-1 comebacks in one playoff run? Ludicrous. You two did just watch Kyrie Irving, one of the most talented players ever in TD Garden in an Finals. Porzingis literally skipped games in Dallas. Without fans it's not NBA basketball.

  6. Too early to start this conversation. You have to understand the effect playing with Luka and Irving has. They draw so so much pressure on the O side and you simply have to do your role. Look at THJ getting open looks, DJones clearly had his best year as did Gafford, Liv has potential but would he would have been a starter on most of the other teams?? Time will tell but I do believe Liv and Gafford are in the top 3 best duo centers and hopefully we can keep both for the next 5 years but I doubt it. Once Luka signs his super max contract it simply will not be enough $'s left over to keep our depth and will probably loose 3 of our top 8 players. Being young as we are Ithink our window with Irving and Klay is 2 to 3 years to win the title.

  7. This latest Gobert comment from Lively saga and how people INCLUDING MAVS FANS has really showed me that no one really watches and acknowledges the Livelys impact/talent.

    A lot and i mean a lot of people thinks he is just a better Javale Mcgee. Its insane what overall opinion relies on. Same people saying Luka has no defense still after this season saying Lively sucks because he reminded people Goberts negative impact was the key reason why Mavs won which funny enough everyone was talking about after that series lmao.

    Im just fucking glad that people underestimate us, again and still. OKC and Twolves fans still bitter about losing, media keeps favoring American stars, people forgetting how Mavs dismantled their 1st seed and best defense of all time in a matter of weeks with obviously injured Luka and semi-flawed roster.

  8. Can't get behind the bubble being harder. All the pressure of playing in packed stadiums and having to climb the gauntlet after a long, grueling season was gone. The bubble was a vacuum, which makes it cleaner and easier. However the advantages don't benefit everyone equally, they benefit aging teams and players the most, hence the LeBron/Lakers caveat

  9. The hill I would die on is that i believe with all my heart that the mavs got better compared to last season. They should be looked at as the favorites to win the west.

  10. The Bubble made the Donovan Mitchell-Rudy Gobert Jazz look like a legitimate contender.

  11. I agree with slightly on the Lakers and I also believe they could be ahead of Minnesota. I don't think Minnesota got any better. We'll see but I don't see it

  12. When Slightly said in the bubble all the players slept in the same bed gave me a visual of all the NBA players building a huge pellow fort in a room and all of them hanging out there sleep over style during the bubble, made me laugh a little even though it is every player slept in their same bed they slept in the day before without travel.

  13. The let it ride music better be back when the season begins. Bc this starting beat AINT FREAKIN IT !!!! Please change it

  14. SHUT UP HIGHLY BIASED… hahahahahaha…
    Lakers won't even be in the Playoffs, much less making a longer run than the Nuggets… hahahahahaha…
