Will Luka Doncic OUTPLAY Anthony Edwards?
uh just a reminder the Mavs got here they sent home the number one seed in Thunder uh in six while the t-wolves you know no big deal just knocked off the defending champs in seven Luca or ant one of those two dudes will be playing in the finals um it’s amazing Chandler how great is this for the NBA it’s great just the fact that these two guys are in it and there’s so many budding young stars and and these two are the two that everyone are looking at now they one of them are going to the NBA finals to really separate themselves to play on the biggest stage and compete for an NBA championship so it’s aome that we’re going to get one of them and this is a tale of two teams this a great defensive team against an offensive Juggernaut and defensive win championships we’ll see how hold how true that holds up because Minnesota they’ve proven they could do both they have scores they all know their roles they can defend they present a lot of mismatches in this series with just the cross matching with MC uh with jadden McDaniels is a great defender Anthony Edwards being a two-way guy and really the only the two threats obviously with the Dallas are Kyrie Irving and LCA Donan so can PJ can PJ waston stay hot can they get production still from can they get something from Tim Hardway is he going to play more minutes Jaden Hardy Josh Green are one of those guys going to step up and kind of have a big series are they going to get a lot of action from The Bigs and the and the Rob so there’s a lot of questions from Dallas that Minnesota can can they can defend so well that we know what we’re going to get from them we don’t know what we’re going to get from those other guys in Dallas why why is l laughing maybe ask your question so Ant-Man and Luca being in the Western Conference Finals is that the best case scenario for the NBA sure I mean yeah they’re both they’re two of the best players fine well you didn’t like how I danced around the question yeah a politician up here but even if the Thunder win it’ be awesome to see SGA in the finals he’s also a young star so yeah yeah it’s awesome I think it’s but there’s like they’re not going to guard each other I think luuka mcdo is the matchup I think well andman said andman said publicly he’s he’s guarding K yeah do you love that no oh okay why I don’t I don’t love it I love the confidence but I do love the confidence yeah I think l is going to guard Mike conle I’ll tell you that and I think he’s going to not be able to he’s not do both I know that it’s a fact that’s not that’s not a great match up for him either you go I’m just saying listen I love and the is I’ve said this all season young this dude is my favorite player I find him wildly amusing he can do no wrong in my book so I look forward this is a series this is the one that we’re looking forward to we know I love him being being ready to take the challenge but if I’m if I’m Chris Finch I want him to guard somebody that where he can save a little energ and have his legs on the offensive B oh so then who’s who has to get Kyrie then I have the matchups right here that I think are unpredicted right okay I think it’s gonna be Luca McDaniels sure Kyrie and I think Kyrie and cuz Kyrie and connley okay which is tough for connley but he’s there he might not guard him Derrik Jones is going to guard Anthony Edwards he’s gonna give a little length and then obviously towns and PJ and Gafford and goar those those are I think the opening matchups will be that’s what you okay I I don’t they can throw a couple bodies at they can throw PJ Washington they can throw uh obviously Derrick Jones Jr I would be surpris LCA Don plays a little bit on him you know he’s got a big build I think I think he can at least physically match up with anony Edwards I don’t know I mean they switch everything and they’re going to switch everything especially with goar in the game because he’s not a threat to you know to get a switch and to post up so that that’s that’s a win for Dallas if they get you know Luca on goar and they’re throwing the ball the post to go be like that that’s that’s what they want so they’re going to switch everything so everybody’s going to be guarding everybody I just think that is the a game on the line that’s who’s going to guard each other that is Chandler’s matchup Shams what are you looking for I just think these teams match up really really well I mean you think about they have Anthony Edwards you can put on Kyrie Irving you have Jaden McDaniels on Luka donic and then from there it’s like you I think they mat they they’ve got the big men we think about Kony towns Rudy goar obviously we know they Dallas now has Gafford Lively um they’ve got different bodies you can throw in the front Court as well so I I think overall these two teams match up well it’s going to depend if the shot making of Dallas you have luuka and Kyrie can that supersede the defense that we know Minnesota’s going to bring there was a moment the other night we didn’t play for you yesterday we were saving it for today uh it’s Carl Anthony towns and Aunt Edwards it’s like their comedy routine they take it on the road um they had an answer to a question about needing to lose big shout out Vincent Goodwill here it is this is for the one of you guys and usually in NBA history it says you have to lose and lose big before you win what is it about this team that says we lost last year yeah but that that that’s different you have to lose at a bigger stage usually teams usually it’s the playoffs we lost last year we lost the last two years sh God damn how much more we got to lose how much you want us to lose we Los it for 20 years I mean that’s just the truth dog god damn godamn sounds like Chris tuger from rush hour I can’t is that not who that is from rush hour is that him doing an impersonation or is that his voice getting real life I don’t think that’s how he normally sounds he got two voices he do like like Tyrese Halbert he does he got two what’s up with the two voices I don’t know but but it is funny he forgot to turn his TV voice on TV voice is needed there uh all right fine who has more to lose this is an interesting one they’re both young feels like equal but yeah it’s it’s going to be the Mavs okay why you got Kyrie Irving you got Luca dones those are guys are are considered veterans they’re considered Superstars at this point I think Anthony Edwards is emerging as a superstar Carl Anthony towns is emerging as a superstar the other two guys in on side are already solidified they already have reputations they already have um a standard that they have to live up to when it comes to their fan base and people that look up to them so I think the pressure um even though they’re they’re the the the lower seat in this one I think the pressure is on the Mavericks and I I think it’s theirs to lose that’s fair and it’s crazy just to think from one year to the next Rudy gobe trade last year how everyone’s just rolling it through the mud dirt worst there’s multiple people including myself said this could go out as the worst trade of all time of all time they’re in the Conference Finals so I don’t I don’t think was one of them yeah like I think everyone was I don’t know anyone said and on the flip side think about when Kyrie got to the Mavs last year how much they struggled how they were bad markup find a million dollars for trying to lose just to get this draft pick like and now they’re in this so these two teams they went through some to get here so they’re both in fantastic spots they both have awesome coaches the Mavs have a lot of good things happening with new ownership and stuff like that so again why are you dancing today man I don’t think either of them I think if they whoever loses I don’t think it’s like damn what a Wast a championship are expect no we didn’t we expected the Clippers the Suns the Nuggets we didn’t expect either of these two teams okay but we’re here now and Dallas has been your team this entire I would like to obviously see Dallas win but I don’t think I want you to stand on business and say stand on business Chandler I don’t think they have more to lose I don’t I don’t I think I would love I would love them to win I think they are going to win I just don’t I don’t I don’t think it’s a bad season if Dallas loses this like yeah I would say I would say Kyrie Irving obviously he’s he’s a veteran I mean when you think about star players Anthony Edwards Cony towns I think those guys have probably a little bit more of a Runway I think Kyrie Irving he wants to win he wants to win now

Who wins the series, Mavs or Wolves?
dude how much more does luka and the Mavs gota do to be recognized for the defense they been playing
Wolves in 6
Yes Luka will outplay Ant … duh.
Still got NAW. He's a better defender then Conley..
Kyrie and Luka has more to lose in this matchup.
I predict the Wolves win in 6
Do you really want to compare these 2 player?
Anthony last 4 Years
25.9/5.4/5.1 (12th in the NBA)
24.6/5.8/4.4
21.3/4.8/3.8
19.3/4.7/2.9
Career 22.9/5.2/4.1
Luka last 4 Years
33.9/9.2/9.8 (1st in the NBA)
32.4/8.6/8.0
27.7/8.0/8.6
28.8/9.4/8.8
Career 28.7/8.7/8.3
People so concerned with two voices thing when most people would do that when on national tv. Also in this he’s clearly joking and people change their voices to fit jokes.
Mavs in 5 people underestimate the Mavs defense number one defense in the last three months 😔 it's ok love the underdog role 🎉
Shames said Luka on Ant “Charlie Murphy laugh”
Chandler is so dissapointed Luka is still in the playoffs.
Minnesota in 5
Mavs taking game 1
No way he said kat is a emerging star! He was drafted in 2015 😅
Mavs in 6 or 7
In 1st round playoffs to 2nd round playoffs up to now in WCF, they don't want to accept that Luka is different since at the age of 14 till now. Luka from rookie till now is already in a legendary conversation.
Chandler parsons hasnt watched many mavs games smh
Lou, Kat is older than Luka by 3 years
"If you don't believe, you shouldn't be here." luka
Luka is veteran with only 25 years? 😂
Chandler stole from mavs and always shows hate as mavs fan were always complainng abt this….this is payback from him
Mavs in 6!!!!
I’m still laughing at the stun look of the Denver Nuggets fans after they lost.🥹
Tf they talking bout? Dallas defense has been elite this post season, and y’all know Lou a hater cause Dallas smacked up his beloved Clippers! The only vet on Dallas is Kyrie, tf he talking bout Luka a vet and he 3 yrs younger than 28 yr old emerging superstar Towns! If anything Wolves have more to lose at this point, Dallas playing with house money 😂
Always comforting to be overlooked by national media 😂😊 it makes it even more pleasing when we win!
Man, these Mfs will never acknowledge luka man. Never. This is so sad bro
Wolves in 5
CANT UNDERSTAND WHY THIS BENCH PLAYERS TALK LIKE THIS ?!
