Mavs/Rockets: Did Luka Just Secure The MVP? | Shan & RJ

Hot Mavs beat the red hot Rockets I may I may not going to do it yet cuz they’re still like the 12 seed have to start forming an apology to the Rockets who offseason decisions I made fun of going to throw money at Dylan Brooks Fred Van

Vit but they had won 11 in a row I’m not going to apologize yet because they’re not a playoff team uh but they were playing the best basketball in the league and Luca donic goes in and drops 472 and 7even right on him he hit nine Theses the ridiculous underhand actually

Paye let’s go ahead and play the Rockets announcers knowing what was eventually coming from 77 he’s got 35 now oh no no no no no no you got to go he’s he’s this is about as no no no no no and that wasn’t even close to his

Best trick shot of the day as all the uh TV shows are playing him throwing it off the the billboard throwing it off the scoreboard at the top of the arena and hitting it I mean it’s it’s so insane first of all like the skill of the modern day NBA player is is

Ridiculous anyway like these guys just they they there’s never a basketball not in their hands it’s always in there but then him on his own he’s a freak he’s a un like nothing about Luca outside of the fact that he’s like you know his size he doesn’t scream super athlete

Right he doesn’t have this like Adonis figure the guy is just a systematic Savage it’s all he is he’s I I mean look and yesterday even said like one of my buddies texted me a hot take and said best offensive guard since Michael and I was like okay Kobe okay Kobe but

That is how other people think into this cat I mean he’s he he is special I I mean we’re gonna we’re gonna talk about him as like better than Dirk we knew this already we knew this already his career has already got off to a better start the Dirk obviously now he doesn’t

A championship yeah and Durk at this stage he may never be he he’ll probably never be he’ll never be as loved in DFW as Dirk um and some people will always just have Dirk’s Hallmark moment as the number one no matter what Luca does but just in terms of like a

Player you take Luca donic over Derk nisy if you’re drafting yeah yeah and and that’s not a slight to Durk Durk was special Durk helped kind of change the modern NB he keeps moving up the alltime list of players and power fours really yeah he does I I never thought we’d be

Having a dirk Carl Malone discussion keep your joke to yourself uh you know Dirk Charles Barkley and these guys but anyway the point of the whole thing is Luca donic I believe is going to win the MVP now it’s going to be really the way they’re closing the season it’s going to

Be really hard to hold him off um because I mean they’re what since uh they’re like 18 and six in their last 24 and I mean that’s that shouldn’t be that you know that that shouldn’t be that big a surprise when you consider the fact that you know Kyrie has played that’s

Like been the entire stretch where Kyrie’s played consecutively Kyrie Luca together offensively Dante X him coming around like he has The Bigs playing the way that they are PJ Washington finally starting to hit some threes after he’s been playing really strong defense since he got here if if you’ve got these

Centers playing at the level that they are if you’ve got exom and then PJ Washington knocking down threes they’re going to be really tough for anybody to be even the best teams in the league are going to have trouble with them like that they are now you know the like they

Got to get out of the five no five seeds ever won the title um they’re in the five right now you got to get out of that you got to get in the four you got one you got one team one four seeds won what’s the

Minimal seed uh so a six is won one time that what’s the minimal seed that they should be able to get for him to win it what do you mean like his history no no just like like what’s that you say they can’t win from the five so can they

Win from the four no I’m sorry let me clarify what seed minimum do you think the Mavs could be like lowest seed for Luca to win the MVP oh oh um cuz this whole five versus six is starting to annoy me a little bit it’s yic won it

From the six seed his his first MVP was six seed really mhm yeah I think he can win it from from just about anywhere now like um voters have stopped doing the hey how good your team is kind of thing um I think he’s going to win it he’s got

He’s got a he’s got a real chance so he like the markets have shifted a lot of the betting markets have shifted to where he’s cleared number two right now um and that it’s like right behind yic but it’s the steady climb that over the course of this last you know what eight

Games that they have left like I I mean the more that they play they they’re going to we had talked about hey there’s kind of an outside shot at it they’re going to they’re likely going to hit 50 wins they’re they’re 45 and 29 they got

To go five and three down the stretch they’re likely going to hit it and if you’re a 50 win team he gets to the top half of the seeds in the west which is looking like more and more attainable I think it’s really tough to keep him off

All right so here’s this is MGM bet MGM partner of the BET ql Network well yic is this is as of uh like four days yic isus 700 to win the MVP -700 wow so you got to bet $700 to win 100 Luca is second at 5 to1 meaning if you bet 100

Bucks you win 500 and then the next highest is uh Shay at 25 to one so it’s a two horse race really a one horse race which Luca was four back yeah two weeks ago so I mean he’s hard charging dude but Joker’s putting up like the same

Numbers or a little bit better than when he won the MVPs he has like one less rebound but like one more assist than some of the other years averaging 26 this year the other years he scored 27 and 26 a game because he’s not going against Derrik Lively every night the

Old joic stopper I think they’re going to give it to Luca just out of nness nness talk about that Coach of the Year MVP cuz like you can make case Joker should have won last year over mbid he didn’t he should have he had a better

Year um but they didn’t want to give it to somebody three years in a row now you’d be in a situation where you give it to somebody four years in a row if they had won it last year like kg tweeted uh Lucas the MVP Russell Westbrook Joker and Wilt each won the

NBA MVP the year they LED their teams in most games leading in points rebounds and assists I think he’s going to win the MVP hopefully yall went and got in a value bet a weeks and weeks and maybe some months ago I me it’s still a decent

Value at 5 to one it is still pretty pretty good I mean it’s not great but comparatively speaking when you got somebody who’s – 700 and you we think it’s uh it’s wrong I think it’s decent value 214 said they put down uh 320 at plus 525 so it pays 2,000

The Mavericks beat the red-hot Houston Rockets last night and once again Luka Doncic lit up the scoreboard and had multiple all-time great shots and passes. Shan says Luka should definitely win the MVP. Will Luka win the MVP?
