Luka’s defense looks like Caitlin Clark

Well shit he’s got to carry the team offensively.  He can’t do it all himself.

Goddamn. Holiday may be the best defender in the NBA but he’s been allll over Kyrie tonight. 

you have to be fucking kidding me. whatever.

Dallas is fucking dreadful behind the arc. Holy shit.

You would think

Rim Protector

3 point shooters around Luka

 

 instead they try to go for these hybrid guys to do both that can’t do either

Luka's gonna try to match that 3.  I hope he makes it.

So mavs are shooting better, otherwise statistically nearly the same, we’re losing on fts with about the same attempts.

if they are playing 5 out you can’t get absolutely worked by the guy with the ball every possession. Completely leaves our defense scrambling. 

Doncic needs to quit with the slow up play.  they aren't going to call the foul.  this is Boston in the Garden.

This is the Peter Pinciple.  The Mavs have risen to the level at which they are no longer competent.  

Got to find another couple good players and dump the dead weight at the bottom of the roster (THJ, Hardy, Exum, Kleber, Green)

Kyrie Irving: Brick by Brick

 

26 points on 35 fga so far this series. Jesus.

Maxi has been… not great

Playing him at all has been a big mistake. They had good chemistry and a strong rotation without him. 2 points in 31 minutes…

Porzingas limping. One good game then ineffective. Same as it ever was.

Dingus is done

 should’ve been a foul too he kicked his leg out to trip the Mavs player there

 of course tripping is just “tough defense” not a foul when the Celtics do it

Kyrie's not playing with the same energy on defense as he had been against LAC, OKC, and Minn. I think those series might have taken more out of him than we realize.  He's tired.  I haven't check but this might be the longest streak of games he's ever played. I think he's missed one game since February.

You battle back just to gift them a stupid ass turnover. We still don’t have people who can dribble the fucking basketball. 

Mavs had a chance. Idiotic turnover by Luka. He’s just been playing shit street ball in Q4. Out of gas and frustrated

Luka has given this game away

That was not on Luka. It was on PJ. Luka had to try to get the ball back over half court with no time left.

He refused to sack up and put the game on his shoulders in the 3rd. He kept deferring to his loser teammates who had a big bag of nothing.

Celtics have like 7 guys that can gun it from 3 and they pass the ball around until someone is open. The Mavs have 7 guys that are scared of the basketball and pass it as fast as they can to Luka and sometimes he turns it over. 

Mavs don’t have anyone remotely as physical or tough as Tatum, Brown, Holiday or White. Those 4 could beat the Mavs 5 on 4. Series over.

Poor Luka. His teammates are bums. 

all on cubes...

I love how they just go silent on replay when realizing White slapped shit out of his hand before getting ball. 

the NBA is not gonna call a foul on the Boston Celtics in the Garden in that situation...

Celtics have erased Lively from the series. Good coaching/scouting. 
 

Kyrie needs to suck less in game 3. Mavs have no chance without a second weapon on offense.

Luka was the only reason they are even in the game

Rex Kramer wears a helmet. 

On top of this misery, that Luka 32.5 prop looked good after the first quarter. For fuck sake.

Look at the shooting from 3 from non-Luka players. But yes, Luka is the problem. The Celtics missed contested 3s. The Mavs pissed their panties about wide open 3s. Crazy. 

Mavs win gm3, and might still have a great series especially if KP missed games for celtics. 

Also, there is real pressure on the C's since they have choked so often in the playoffs.  Mavs may just need a little home cookin' in gm3 to fix what ails them.

Didn’t pay attention to thread. How many times did you and dcar aimlessly bitch about officiating?

0. You helmet wearing mouth breather.

KP did nothing outside the first quarter. His injury takes away a weapon that the Celtics don’t need if Luka is going to throw the ball away, and we continue to get nothing games from Kyrie, Lively, DJJ and Kleber. And there’s no pressure on Boston up 2-0. 

First time for everything. 

DJJ ended up having a solid game after a slow start. If he can produce that every game this series that would ultimately be a win.

Weirdly he is not wrong, I'm fucking pissed at the Mavs losing over the easy parts. Refs called hard and obvious only it seemed, which I'm cool with for the finals. I'm also jaded from 07, but fuck off.

Big mistake. lol. Tell me more how don’t know basketball.

Yeah it isn’t really even debatable Maxi has been poor since rushing back from injury. Unfortunate he got hurt when he did because he played decent against Clippers.

Good news everyone!

The non Luka 3 pt shots have to start falling if there is going to be any chance for the Mavs. Boston is so confident we are going to miss they often have 4 guys in the paint to stop/defend the drive/lob.

He's played more minutes this season than any since 2016.
