Locked on Clippers views dropped bu 85% today I bet 😂
PJ Washington will average 20 -6-3 in this series
I just hope the refs would let them be physical.. and I mean an honest physical defense! Because if SGA gets special treatment with the calls..im gonna lose it!!!
Anything
We really need maxi if we want to play big. There are times that we have gaff, maxi and pj at the same time and we dominate especially in rebounding.
dirk on tnt crew.. a good sign for the mavs
Maxi out of the lineup is a blessing in disguise for the Mavericks
If only we had a THJ that was hot…
His shooting would have been a massive help.
Mavs will have to play supreme defense and the 3 point shooters need to be in the gym right now shooting! One thing is for sure. The Mavs get in trouble quick when teams score a lot of 3’s!
OKC in 4 or 5
We could use marquis morris. And try to on defense and maybe injured sga😅😅😅 joke.
Powell, morris, or o max. Maybe omax he should be playing.
You talk about Maxis threes…
I think Lukas three point shooting is the most important because of the volume of it. 25% on 67 taken threes is a lot. If he shoots 35% you have 10 more threes. And that is more than the number of threes Maxi hit.
Luka simply had to be at least just decent from 3 if he’s going to shoot that many.
Lively in draft workouts show he is a great 3 pt shooter…
Game 1 probably an L. Kidd never won game 1's 😂
Omax prosper!!
Get ready for Shai spamming free throws yall
I think timmy can replace maxi 's 3s and gafford and Dlive need to play more anyways I think so I think it evens out imo believe timmy will be ready for game 1
And hope him being fresh his 3s will come back and be that flame thrower need atleast 10 to 15 points or so a game from timmy at the very least
Mavs will win in 5! OKC just overrated and lucky being at top 1 in west!
Against Oklahoma I don't see Kleber's loss being a problem. Yes, it could be against KAT in a conference final, but let's hope that in the end it will be against Denver and the final against New York.
Luka has to have a signature game or two in this series. He played bad vs the Clips in every game.. I think he's gonna average 30+ with 60% from the field & 50% from the 3..
Mavs are more dangerous when they play fast and Luka shares the ball
WTF Luka's injuries? You are all being fooled, banged up or injured is a difference. Maxi is injured, Luka is banged up. And don't ever scare me again with Luka and injury in the same sentence, almost got a heart attack when I saw a thumbnail.
Who guards SGA? I'm guessing DJJ… but then who does Kyrie guard? Jalen Williams? That's a tough cover for Kyrie… I'm guessing Luka will guard Dort primarily? You could try to have Luka guard Giddey and put PJ on Williams and Kyrie on Dort, but I don't know if that's an ideal match-up for PJ either.
I also thought, that YOU jinxed his 3P Shooting
when THJ comes back?
What happened with thj injury?
What about playing omax?
But Thunder aren a very bígaros team. I think maxi would have been huge lost if we were playing the wolves or the nuggets. The versatility is true, i think is more importan how exum performs
OkC dominated hospital Pelicans
You are looking at this wrong the Mavs will dominate them OKC is not that good SGA is not that good
Dallas can hold SGA uder 20 they did it this year already
Lively and Gafford are going to go crazy. Luka needs to shoot better with maxi out. Mavs in 6
We need Exum to elevate. He's the key factor in this series
I think the bigs really have to play a big role. Chet played between 29-35 minutes in pelicans series. We have 13-20 minutes a game where we need to dominate glass and in the paint.
Imagine, and it’s a reach, if the mavericks played the knicks in the finals. Definitely unlikely but that would be quite the irony with Brunson and luka plus the 2 teams trade history…
