All season mavs fans complain about kidd. Masterfully hea outcoaching in conference finals. Give man credit

[@Colinkrauss1]

I wonder how much easier Luka sleeps at night knowing his offensive centers are Lively and Gafford instead of Dwight Powell.

[@SamReynols]

I understand not liking Gobert or his game but man, he's always the scapegoat. None of the Wolves stars have shown up. Ant threw away this game in the last minute, but still all I see is Gobert this and that

[@vc5917]

I know you sad bro Lukas and Dallas basically exposed all your weak takes. Learn ball

[@drdkphd]

But does Luka impact winning??? 🤔

[@nabilcollison-cofie6811]

Kyrie Irving and the Dallas Mavericks will free us from North Korea this level of offense

[@GIMMETHELOOTNOW]

Why are you not screaming like Awful coaching 😂😂😂

[@OJDallasz9094]

We live in North Korea!

[@kaypbass0]

Dallas is losing. Thinking Basketball made a video about em. 🥹🥹

[@meu02136]

North Korea

[@phamkevin8191]

Luca and Jokic look like the characters in Anime have all the time to analyze every situation before passing the ball

[@TheTeto2323]

Luka and Kai have birds eye view, the control of time and space are 2 levels far for here. If you double they pass, if you Iso they cook, if you clog they alley.

[@noahwelch2931]

As a Wolves fan, our defense all regular season, and in the Phoenix / Denver series have basically figured out most of the looks that everyone has given us offensively.

[@kerro-Sama30]

The efficiency of lobs n’ dunks Mavs had w/Wolves 3 big men n’ McDaniels on the rooster is crazy. Luka n’ Kyrie elevates this Mavs team to a whole new level entirely

[@SamReynols]

Incredible that Kidd is thoroughly outcoaching someone.

[@wulfwood04]

lively was the biggest steal of the draft last year

[@GiftedGaz78]

The Edward’s turn overs in the 4th were massive, all 3 ended in 3s for the mavs

[@DamnZodiak]

The sheer panic in Gobert's eyes as he realises Luka is stepping back in to the 3. The tiny wiggle of the hand. Luka probably hunts him in his nightmares.

[@MahnameisENrico]

Luka’s lookoffs are very elite man. It really keeps the defense guessing.

[@nnlaau]

I didn't notice how insanely luka faked out KAT until you pointed it out, amazing stuff to watch
