He probably was overrated, doesn’t make you any less wrong, Jamal Murray is the definition of a playoff riser, you can’t compare the two when klay actually held it together for an entire 73-9 season (as the second option)not draymond or iggy, iggy literally averaged 15 and 6 boards in the finals and still won mvp, klay definitely had an off finals with 15 and 4 boards, meaning they still pretty much match up in terms of performance with klay doing worse than usual, and iggy doing better, and you can’t even make a case for draymond as a second option

Yeah same. I think the Mavs only worries are Luka's lingering injuries that are not allowing him to be as lively as before and due to which his efficiency is suffering. Taking these games off and resting was the right move imo and I believe that he will bounce back to his last year's form. And the Mavs this year are much better and many players show up every game, when its not Luka its Kyrie, when its not them it's Washington or Marshall or Klay or Hardy. This year's Mavs are deep and if they stay healthy and in form, they are for sure contenders from the west. Whether they can beat the Celtics though is still a tough question.

They are 10-8 and we haven't even hit 25 games yet. They have plenty of time to adjust and mesh together as the season goes on. The biggest thing for this team will be their health and their top stars being available to play with one another as much as possible. Teams are still ironing out their rosters and strategies, especially teams that have added additional talent that impacts the way the team played last year. Luka only needs to be in great condition for the playoffs and be available for at least 65-70 games to build chemistry with Klay along with Irving as the top offensive threats that need to be consistent with their team defense.

[@gregorylagrange]

Mavs will have to fix the holes that got revealed against Boston. One is that Kyrie's one on one doesn't open any options if he isn't able to get a shot from doing all his dribbling. Another is how a player like Al Horford completely disrupted their offense when they don't have a person like Gobert to isolate. Obvious one is Luka not being in shape. Another is Luka's desire to play like Harden while everyone is waiting for him to do something. If Oklahoma fixes their offensive flow problems, then the Mavs may not get back to the finals for a while. Then that may be when Luka starts to have back problems. Which I'm still thinking is likely to happen because he won't ever want to get in good shape.

Intuit Dome isn't all that. It's significantly smaller than Crypto and the cost of parking in the structure built across the street for the dome is a ridiculous 68.00 and up. That allows you to have a pretty long almost 1/2 mile walk into the arena across a walk bridge that's already showing cracks in the concrete, if you can figure out the ubiquitous course it takes to get to the bridge from the multiple parking levels or you could take your life in your hands trying to cross the street. Honestly I prefer the overall experience of Crypto and can't stand the Clippers logo on the floor and their uniforms. It looks like the front of a cruise ship not a sailing clipper. It's definitely a money grab by a subpar team. Even navigating around the arena is extreme. The outdoor court in the courtyard area seems to be inviting, but no one is allowed to play on it.

@@huhhhhhh5225 if you judge basketball by just offense then yes Tatum a little better than Wemby But I don't judge basketball by just offense like casuals do

[@huhhhhhh5225]

@@JamesHarris-st7le you are definitely a casual, wemby can’t lead a team by himself, you said he is good at defense but you’re just looking at his stats, like a casual. Spurs have the 22nd worst defensive rating in the league and are the 10th seed which is more proof that wemby can’t lead a team. He’s only chucking 3s like a guard when he should be aggressive in the post. Meanwhile Tatum is clearly able to lead a team and average 30 on offense while being particularly great on defense- you are a casual with no nba knowledge, just stop bro 😂

Anyone who thought Klay was gonna get them over the top is stupid! Everyone said Klay sucked last year and now he is supposed to save this team? Just stupid. Klay leaves-Warriors are 12-4. Klay joins the Mavericks they are 9-8.

[@YNotWAKEUp]

Perhaps, if Luca will pass the ball to the fittest opened players, they will support the thoughts of defending more in orders to witness better team chemistry and locker room devoted positive energetic teammates unwavering workable spirits.

[@manuelsousa-y5i]

The problem is cuban and his antics with the team it is toxic .... LMFAO na but letting DJ Jr go was bad and having Klay stresses the defense you could've acquired a lower name 3pt hitter that actually prices on 3 like a Derrick white not him because he locked in on Boston but someone like that like Celtics picked up Jrue Holiday someone like that what you paid Klay you could've definitely got someone of that style

[@Paperplanes805]

Long time mavs fan I thought it was sus either the addition of Thomson. I hope JJ can coach him to be one for all. Go Mav’s Go

[@-OAK-]

The mavs were really lucky last year, they were barely eligible for the playoffs, played a injured clippers team, nearly went to game 7 against the youngest team in nba history to make the playoffs, the Thunder had no experience and everyone but SGA had the worst games of their careers due to that, and when they played the wolves, the wolves just straight up forgot how to play.

[@maxpotenza9868]

An yet the mavs were the underdogs in every series....

[@saulom.d]

Bro, stop lying to yourself. The clippers were one of the best teams in the playoffs, Kawhi suffered an injury, but the team was strong in general. The thunder were the first team in the west conference and you know damn well that Shai was playing even better than he was playing all season with 32.2/8/7.3. After that they played the Timberwolves and let me tell you something, a good team does not stop playing good for no reason or no injury, they played worse than the Mavs because they didn't react as they should've. With all that said take into account that Luka was injured all the playoffs, they were not lucky, they played better than the rivals in the most difficult run to the finals of the last playoffs, so stop hating.

[@huhhhhhh5225]

how are the wolves getting destroyed by the mavs lucky? timberwolves had all their players but they just got dismantled by the mavs, clippers are always injured- kawhi is just stealing money from the franchise, and the thunder swept the pelicans in the first round experience isnt an excuse if they already know how to beat an experienced team like the pelicans 💀

[@angelondilou5669]

The mavs are doing fine and luka can actually take time to get healthy.

[@RogerCh888]

You lost me at could they be one year wonders...given that the Mavs made it to the western finals, had a hickup after losing brunson in free agency, then made it to the finals last year, yea I think they 're way past that question thanks to Nico and all the staff. Couldn't make it past the intro.

[@josephvanucchi5249]

I don't care who they got: losing the last two games on purpose and MISSING THE PLAYOFFS to do it is a complete punk ass move. 🤔😂

[@thinlion01]

We'll be in shape by playoffs time

[@chukwuee]

Luka needs to get SLIM again, like sophomore year slim (2019-2020)

[@NO-1515]

Bruh klay is barely better than tim hardaway when he played for em. Nobody expected prime klay but this dude is buns now 😂

[@TMoneyWave]

It's still early. mavs will bounce back and probably be 4th or 5th in the west when all is said and done!

[@WhiskeyFiend]

Can you really blame them, they gambled on Kyrie and that paid dividends for them. Klay was theoretically less of a gamble.

[@Kikoman941]

World B Flat is wild

[@derrick3913]

Luka is not and never really has been in NBA shape. Now for the rest of us, maybe he would be fine. But for NBA conditioning he falls short. And Klay Thompson has to understand he's a role player and not a star at this point in his career

[@ArnoldMojodos]

Mavs Success rely heavily on Luka..that's the only answer..they need a berserker luka

Doncic might be cracking under pressure and frustration
