That’s a great take

Kyrie is an elite level shooter, too. Did anyone even notice how close he was to 50-40-90 again this year? Came closer than anyone else this year.

Luka is Luka! No one compares. Personally, I'm tired of the Bird comparisons-not even similar positions and usage rates. Let Bird be Bird and let Luka create his own identity.

You do realize that the pacers and celtics swept the mavs in the regular season.

​i almost forgot about "choach Mazzulla"

Its the pace of play. The pacers and celtics were the top 2 offenses and the pacers pace of play was by far the highest in the league. There was defense but because of the pacers style of play it minimizes actual defensive sets and in more transition defense

Who's calling the games? The ESPN crew?

If Tingus gets his finger out his dingus

Lively is very comfortable defending on the perimeter as well.

Kleber gets relentlessly cooked by jb and jt

@@toinengwyn3935but we need him for interior rim protection to protect slashers like JB and JT

@@StatsLie14 - Kleber won't guard those two. And please stop being lazy and spell out names. Kids these days.... sigh...

casuals like you are the reason the media keeps going on extremes instead of having balanced views. Criticizing Rudy Gobert winning DPOY and making money after being scored on during switches on some of the most prolific ball handlers in history is like criticizing shaq for teams sagging on him and fouling him intentionally. Rudy Gobert is one of the most impactful interior defenders of all time and you can't expect him or anyone else in history to guard luka or kai on the perimeter.

@@davidchang9048 bro compared him to Shaq😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 I saw nothing but easy buckets in the paint ALL series from Luka and kyrie and the mavs big men were eating up offensive boards and getting easy 2s the whole series. Rudy clogs up the paint on offense and has very questionable basketball IQ. I also think he’s got a hero complex because there’s absolutely no reason for him to switch on Luka on that game winning play. Bros a liability on offense and searches for heroic plays on defense that lead to problems for his team. Not worth 44 million

@@OrangeJungle Him switching onto Luka that play was not a hero complex issue. The entire series the wolves threw every pick n roll coverage imaginable and Luka picked apart all of them. The only way to have a chance at stopping it was switching and trying to play really good D. Lively forced the switch really well and Gobert got picked apart on THE PERIMETER. For his size Gobert is a pretty good defender on the perimeter although he obviously cannot guard Luka. Gobert played amazing D this series. The reason the wolves lost is because of horrible and inconsistent play from KAT and Edwards. People have to stop criticizing Gobert because although he's not perfect, he's by far the most consistent star on the team and plays his role well. My comparison to Shaq was to make an analogy between the MVP and the DPOY. Shaq was the MVP in 2000 and he deserved it and his salary. He didn't play on the perimeter and did what he was expected to offensively. Conversely, Gobert is being payed for his interior defense. Saying he didn't play good interior defense means you dont know how the sport works or didn't watch the series.

​@@davidchang9048this is some hardcore copium to the worst trade in nba history. Rudy is terrible defending the perimeter and year after year he gets bullied in the playoffs because he cant move and has poor iq. The wolves are paying the mad like a superstar when he is the most one dimensional player in the league. He actively hurts his team on offense.

@@davidchang9048 hmm idk i definitely watched the whole series i disagree with you i think Rudy got bullied the whole series
