This is wild.... They are completely wrong and I am Celtics fans. They aren't losing because of Luka... They are only even there because of him. Yes, he had a terrible game 3 but to say they are losing because of him is crazy. Kyrie has been absent for the majority of the series. Luka is trying to carry this team and yes he has been complaining but the Celtics are targeting him on defense to wear him down to try and make him less effective on the offensive side. I'm usually somewhat ok with the takes but to think he's the problem or that they are losing because of him is absurd. They wouldn't even be close or at this point without him...

This segment was so dumb. Until Dallas is giving up 125 points and Boston is well above their reg season efficiency and Dallas is losing shootouts, don't put all the blame on Luka. Luka is responsible for their team defense's liabilities but the team defense isn't the reason they're losing. It's their offense. Dallas hasn't cracked 100 points. They aren't scoring enough. Luka is the best player and center of the offense so he deserves blame but to say he's the reason they're losing or he's not top 5 or whatever is stupid. The Mavericks outscored Boston by 9 points with Luka on the court. That means the offense he generates for his team outweighs how much he hurts them on defense.

Luka is the main reason why Dallas is in the finals...

What will be the narrative after the 4th game? Dallas won because Donic played the same way as in the first and second game? Or maybe the rest of the team finally stopped being afraid of the finals and started playing like always in the playoffs?

Slick Ric is in shambles. He keeps saying that the celtics run was easy and yet the Mavs have done nothing against the celtics 😂😂

3 football guys picked the Mavs in 6 or 7 🤔. I knew the Celtics how too much depth and defense for a two man team to be able to win. Especially when those two stars don’t make an impact on the defensive side of the ball.

When the public is on 1 team.. that team never wins.. public jumped all over wolves after they beat nuggets.. they lost.. public jumped on Mavs, their going to lose.. public money never wins in Vegas.

You all picked the Mavs to win. No one was picking 07 Cavs to beat the dynastic Spurs

Good thing that the team with the most points wins and not the team with the most “experts” supporting a team is the winner. Sad to see people that just can’t admit that they are wrong, like children in a sandbox, grow up please, if the Celtics are that weak, then how weak is the Western Conference?

LeBron played like trash when they lost to the Spurs. He shot 37 percent.

Is Celtic's "best" defender Jrue really Celtic's worst link because while defending Luka he had 4 turnovers and gave 3 interceptions to Doncic... I understand this is TV and we have to make a hot topic... Luka's legacy is in danger... And now what, Jrue can't defend?

No shame getting swept at this point. Important thing is Luka actually learning from this series and trying to work on his weak points after the olympics.

Sweep will not bad at all.. we use this narrative in comparison with other great player.. 0-1 in final.. that's it! No drama of being swept.. we don't know if Luka will get MVP. We don't know if next final, Mavs is will still be there.. or we believe that Luka will and being swept matters comparing him with other great players?

I’ve never seen Lebrun get real criticism while averaging 29 in the finals …

Context, Ric? You don't use context when talking about trash teams in the conferences of the other greatest teams of all times, do you? Also, he's ignoring the fact the Celtics were 27-8 against the West including the finals, a 63 win pace. This dude is such a clown.

🤔LeBron lead the janitor’s and popcorn salesman to the finals when he got swept. Luka at least has Kyrie and Lively. This Dallas time has way more talent on it than that team in Cleveland that went to the finals in 07. 🤷🏿♂️ No disrespect to those players on that 07 Cleveland team. Just making a point. ✌🏿
