- The Mavs threw down a team-record 18 dunks on Thursday against the Jazz, the second-most by a team in NBA history. Led by Daniel Gafford's 10, everyone got in on the fun, even Kyrie Irving, who linked up with Luka Doncic on an alley-oop in the second half. As the Mavs continue their playoff push in the Western Conference, battling for the sixth seed with Kevin Durant's Phoenix Suns and De'Aaron Fox's Sacramento Kings, it's the best time to be playing your best basketball.

Which Dunk was your favorite?
Flight 55!
Oh wait… jeez ramadan Kai!!
It’s the Dalley-oop era now baby! Love seeing these dunks!
When Gafford dunked on PJ @ 4:06, if you willing to dunk on your own teammate for pts lol
All of them ❤
Gafford should consider changing his home address to “above the rim”. This guy is so fun to watch
The wizards really game him away 😢
@@Zamire236yep and we took him yessirrrrrr not going nowhere now he home
Gafford dunking on everyone, including his own teammates 😂
lol omg trueee
😂 I was dying when PJ had to get out of the way of the Gafford dunk
I wouldn't be surprised if he dunked on his mother on a family backyard game.
@@travisshunkey5168 collateral damage😭💀
Yeah Parsons was right, who in their right mind would want to play with Luka. I know Daniel Gafford is hating playing with him and the Mavericks. All them uncontested dunks has to be driving him nuts, the audacity of Luka to keep setting him up like that.
Yeah these idiots say anything
Luka could’ve passed more and not keep attempting those failed 3 point shots against the nuggets. It would’ve been a dunk fest and easier win, not having to rely on that miracle shot by Kyrie. Luka is finally learning to play as a team. Remember how he would score 40-50 points and still lose? Kyrie is showing him how to play faster and smarter and get others involved.
@@plumeria66 Agreed and that was my biggest gripe with Luka for the last 4-5 years is that his play style is not conducive to winning. Playing like Westbrook and Harden doesn't lead to wins in the playoffs, but Luka seems to be getting used to really getting others involved. There are nights he needs to take over and do his thing, but he is really learning to truly move the ball now and it can get very scary for the league if he continues down this path.
@@graham5990 Yeah, it was maddening to see him keep trying the three. He is a good passer. Now he needs to develop a higher IQ and be less selfish. I have never been a fan of Luka because of this. I will when he can be a team first guy. I never cared for selfish stats aka Harden.
You only saying cause there winning
Luka is going to make these centers a LOT of money. Gafford, Lively, PJ will all make so many millions of dollars
Fr as long as they stay hungry luka gon make sure them boys stay on the team
MAVS finally got not 1 center but 2! Its about time. Took them 12 years.
They had Tyson chandler for that championship run
Only took them 5 years with Luka to build a legit title contender. That's excellent
@@zachlee3388yea --- that was the last legit center
@@va7459 lmfao I know bro I know didn't even keep him either shit was wild
I've been saying that very same thing about the mavs and it is exactly what the doctor ordered!!!
I'm so glad we got a team full of dunkers now . We never had that.
Ever
☝️ we've had many great shooters over the years but can't ever remember a team this good above the rim
@@WillOrr1fr always had a good 3pt good middy but never guys that can catch a alley and throw that sht down
Great plays from Luka and Kyrie, but this was Daniel Gafford's game. He obviously wasn't 100% too, which made it all the more impressive. So far he's been a huge addition to the team, and if he keeps adding this dimension going forward the Mavs will be scary.
His fg% is crazy and he energizes the whole team on dunks. Mavs have a real showtime vibe with this dude starting
Watching this was better than 2024 All-Star Dunk Contest NahFR
Meanwhile superstar Kuzma fighting for 14th place in eastern conference 🤣😂 thanks to allmighty that Kuzma did not want joind Mavs and we got Gafford and PJ!!!!!
God's business, thanks God !
Hey, Kuzma just helped the Mavs by beating the Kings, the man is doing what he can, lol.
Thank him 2 times he beat the kings and mavs now in 6th position
Kuzma might be the smartest player in the NBA he decided to stay in DC where he remains the #1 option that’s gonna balloon his player stock for a huge contract from any team and oh yeah he already got a ring in LA🤫
Luks's passes were super perfect. Even the dive on the floor with an accurate pass behind his head to Kryie in stride. Amazing
Looking like all-star weekend. You get a dunk, and you get a dunk, and you get a dunk. Kyrie - you want one? Ok, you get a dunk.
The league this week decided to say "Fuck The Jazz".
we go Metal 🤘
I agree fuck the Jazz !
Like normal people saying “fuck communism”
The Jazz have paid a terrible price, for having greats like John Stockton, and Karl Malone.
some of them are legit 50 points compared to this year's slam dunk contest.
🤣 Facts
My first time watching NBA in person and man it didn't disappoint they were electrifying 🔥
Gafford's dunk is poweful, Jones' is from the hig up and Irving's is surprising 👏👏
brutal dunks, unbelivable, Gafford dunk festival! Great job Mavs!
Lively, Gafford, Derrick really fun to watch
Gafford is looking like Amar'e Stoudemire out there 🔥🔥🔥
Welcome to the Mavs dunk-a-thon. Tonight the Smash Brothers (Gafford & Lively) will delight you with their amazing acrobatics..
Gafford can make any dunk so vicious
I think Dallas have their best chance this year to go deep in the playoffs
Lucky Dwight Powell. He is paid to watch in a courtside side seat
🤣🤣🤣
No reason why Hardaway should be playing over Hardy.
Hardy is shooting better from 3, makes better shot-making decisions, and is a MUCH better playmaker.
He is only 21, cheap for this season and next, and still developing. Maximize his development to either keep long term or trade for more assets.
Rotation should be:
Luka
Kai
DJJ
PJ
Gafford
Exum
Hardy
Green
Maxi
Lively
Surround Luka and Kai (two of the best scorers and playmakers in the league) with defensive-minded, athletic wings and bigs? Last night is what happens.
I agree, surrounding Kyrie and Luka with versatile wings and a big is the move forward, when it comes to a playoff rotation hardway cannot get minutes, I feel that exum and green might end up eating hardway and Hardy’s minutes im series against Teams that drive a lot or require better poa defense
@@AndyCromer-kl9jz Oh for sure. They won't play 10 guys in the playoffs.
Luka, Kai, DJJ, PJ, Gafford, and Lively are locked in.
Kidd will likely use Exum, Green, Maxi, and Hardy/Hardaway based on matchups and who is playing well.
Personally, I'd lock in Exum as the first guard off the bench. His defense, outside shooting, and playmaking are too valuable to keep off the floor.
The other 3 likely fluctuate throughout the series and playoffs overall.
@@andrewcause25 I totally agree, very match up dependent, I’m on the same page with exum and a playoff level peice
Gafford is an artist in the paint, Daniel "The Painter" Gafford is what imma call him from now on.
Rims being able to take 240lbs of swinging/jumping aggression is remarkable engineering
It's called a spring
Spring and 4 bolts
@@randomuruk7230 It's called a "SHAQ".
This was a game I wish I could have gone to. But my poor wife got to listen to me scream my head off in the living room instead 😆
For the next match, send her shopping or buy her earplugs! 😅
Luka has solid teammates finally!!
Brunson was good.
@@JayCity10 true.. the new pieces they have makes 100% more sense. They now have another 1 with Kyrie and the new bigs compliment Luka and Kyrie perfectly 👌🏽 and I see no egos at the moment that get in the way of team ball. Perhaps they make finals??
I'm sure j kidd regretting not playing gafford so much at the beginning
What
We have above the rim monsters now.
This changes everything!!!
This is how All Stars games should be.
Perhaps it will be going forward. Gafford should be on the slam dunk contest next season.
Mavs are big as hell 😭
That constant serotonin hit is just wow.
That Luka to Kai to DJJ is nuts lol
someone from dallas will break the glass soon
5:00 nasty
The landlord has come to collect rent
Powerful win for the Mavs!
Gafford reminds me a lot of Amare Stoudemire the way he moves around the basket.
my hands hurt seeing all those dunks 😂😂
Crazy dunk party by the Mavs sheeesh
Mark Cuban reactions are gold 😂
You should make a video of bench & fans reactions to epic moments. It'd be absolutely fantastic lol.
That's how you use your centers.teams take notes
I was at this game the crowd was loud af
1998 Lakers vibes, Jones Kobe Van Exel and Shaq
Everyone hanging on the rim like ape in the junggle that was beast
That was too fun!
The dunks were awesome! And I absolutely LOVE the black jersey.
I can't stop watching the guy behind the Mavs bench in the white Luka jersey 😆 He was having a fun night.
Lob city baby!!!
Such a fun video let’s go mavs!!
Finally, Coach Kidd was able to figure it out that this not a "small ball" team. This Mavs team is feasting in the paint as of late.
I'm convinced that the only reason THJ is playing over Hardy is that THJ has something on Kidd. THJ did have a nice little 6th man of the year run going, but outside of trying to up his trade value next summer, I just cant see why he ever plays over Hardy.
I was stoked about the Gaff trade, and he's def showcasing what he can do playing with two elite PGs in Luka & Kyrie.
DJJ def worth that vet min
John collins left the Group.
This is the most fun team in the nba
Good game for mavs. I hope the big guys will also learn to post up. But dunking all the time is also entertaining.
So is winning 🎉
Beautiful basketball from the Mavs tonight! Live by three and die by three no more!
Fan to watch Gafford, Lively, Jsones, PJ... they can jump high and with Kyrie and Luka we...man this will be intersting season!
when kyrie joined them lobs I was like oh hell nah this a video game they out there just having fun like 2k players.
Wow. Just wow
Kyrie's dunk was the 11th dunk of this game what a coincidence🔥
ok, I can't stop watching, I gotta get back to work
Interesting to see now, since everyone has eyes on Luka, but Gafford is a good off-set and will be insanely valuable for how Luka wants to initiate offense.
Watch how many options Luka has compared to last season. These Mavericks are fun to watch
More fun than the last Dunk contest
I remember last two years we had so much issue attacking the paint,
But we have so many weapons to attack the paint now plus our three-point shooting, and our defense , reminds me of the 2011 team once we acquired Tyson Chandler. Let’s go mass. Prove them haters wrong once again.
Gafford & Russ @ Washington was amazing to watch. I'm glad Gafford's out of DC & playing great with Mavs.
That Gafford was traded tells me that some folks should be looking for a new job.
NBA Jam in Real Life🥹
Gafford was a steal for the Mavericks
This team is gon be fun in 2k!!
If you don't like that you don't like NBA basketball.... Fun to watch
This is a smart line-up. Breaking the mold will take them farther in the play offs, when everyone zigs, you zag.
I got goosebumps
Kyrie🐐
nah luka dunk blooper best
brutal
only if luka got his
I know bro the crowd would e went crazy!!! Still almost got it even w/ the hard foul
Glad to see Gafford thriving 😢 wish he was still on the Bulls
Kyrie is enjoying 😉
If the Mavs can keep this same core team next season they can go to the ship
Holy bombombom
O my it's dunking donuts mamma
2:04 He doesn’t play defense, no case for MVP. Sheesh…
Nice. A legit reason not to let THJ play and lose to missed 3s.
And THIS is the definition of bully ball. The West better get its weight up 😤
This is what we wanted Powell to do for years 😂
Powell had some ups before the achilles surgery but yeah, this is the difference between a 6’10 center and two 7 footers
wow！
Lob city Dallas
Ol skool basketball
Feeling real bad for the guy at 2:27 lol he missed the best play of game, heck, the week
NBA 2K Dunkfest
Seems to me that Kyrie is enjoying himself very much
GAF21 💯
This is probably what the all star game was supposed to look like 😂
I'm all dunked out🫣
This game alone is more dunks than wnba history
Roaring Gafford.
If this team (specially the role players) can find his rythm from 3 again... damn we will be so dangerous!
Lob city is fun to watch
Dunks must be changed to count as 4pts
siempre y cuando lo haga un jugador debajo de 1.90 metros ...
