These Mavs are a deceptive team. If you look at stats or highlights alone, you would not find anything remarkable about this team. They're not blowing teams out, many of their wins are single possession. Casuals who dont watch games would think that this team is just lucky. But if you watch their games, you can tell that they are always in control of the game. The only reason that they lost in the playoff is if both luka and kyrie are playing awful or the other team had a crazy hot shooting night. But once everything settles down, Mavs will always control the game

Another Euro great in Luka Magic on a mission to win the whole thing for the first time in this decade. 2020s just maybe the decade of Euro (international) dominance, and Wemby would most likely join in, too.

[@pedroluciano2643]

Im startung to get sick and tired of all this Edwards being tired and gased thing. Saying “these are mistakes he normally doesn’t make…” is just ridiculous. The guy is 22 and on the prime of his life. Also, he has never been here before, maybe he can’t handle thisas well as you all thought.

[@joshb.1118]

Luka is impressive. Should have the MVP. Been saying that since before the playoffs.

[@Zenigundam]

Ant Man proved that he's a nobody. He passed the ball and turned it over in all the critical moments of the game. The reason the Mavericks got the ball back at 108-106 on the video review was because he passed the ball to McDaniels in a horrible spot, and McDaniels barely saved the pass. Don't forget that Ant Man got Tom Crean fired at Georgia. He's bad news, and the media hype should have been given to Luka all along.

[@nsd_respect]

Okay Mr Prisoner of the Moment 💀

[@Malzarius85]

In a way I agree. He claims tired but he won't challenge Luka, and he wants nothing to do with Kyrie again. Fatigued, tired, what ever

Boyyyy, and u are? No one buddy. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 His bank bigger. Sad. Sounds like a hater. U down badd. Lmaooooo. Ole bummy, ants still a cannon, jas a cannon, Lukas nasty but still carries every possession, kyrie best handles and drive. So recognize greatness. They're all great, but out of all, we all know Luka cries and flops the most. Still top 10. Js. 😂

[@LukeyLive302]

I'd pick j kidd on my team over luka😂

[@spongebobsquarepants68]

I think the reason why the mavs in the frst two games have came back from a twolves big lead is because ant gets tired of guarding kyrie along either the rest of his team guarding luka. They just cant keep up causing them to choke in the end from being tired

[@bynjei2530]

why ESPN didnt show 20pt lead in the beginning. wanna help Ants image so bad

I want the mavs to win it all this year I won’t even pretend. But everybody is way too hype about thinking this series is over already. Chill bro, just look at the previous series with Denver. The series is never over . Be excited for sure but temper that. Sayin Ant Man and the Wolves suck because they’re 2-0 down is insane. They’re still a great team.

The only resemblance Ant has with Jordan is his appearance. Jordan doesn't get tired, he scored 38 during his flu game (personally I think he was just hungover but still impressive)

[@ogsols1246]

lets go eaasssy on the kid...hes just 22...Jordan was 1-9 in his first 3 playoff series...swept twice, funny how no one mentions that...he also took a year off after the Bulls first 3peat to play the laziest major pro sport (I am by no means insisting baseball players are lazy or lesser athletes ...to me the actual game of baseball involves a lot of sitting and standing around for majority of the players compared to sports like basketball, football, hockey)...I have nothing against Jordan , I consider him one of the top 3 of all time without a doubt but his greatness is sooooo over exaggerated

Just to throw this out there: MJ had 5 game winning shots in the final 4 seconds of postseason games. Luka just had one and we barely make a big deal about it but I guarantee youve seen and heard about the 5 MJ shots a million times. This aint MJ slander, he's the goat for sure but we dont celebrate and hype our players up like we used to and as a result, the NBA isnt nearly as popular as it should be right now. ESPN and the NBA have to do a better job of marketing these guys but when you put fools like perk on TV, good luck with that.
