Mavs with the additions to the team look a waaaay more rounded and complete team. Even without Luka or Irvin on the floor you can still see the team making stuff happen.
At first I thought he might be fragile and have issues like Greg Oden, but since the league is so soft these days, I think his fragility won’t matter much.
@@ryu-kenhell nah refs are on some good shit. Even fouls on mavs that shouldn’t have been called. They called a foul on wemby for tripping when that’s just the length of the guys legs lmfao. He needs the ball fed to him more also.
He was the most impressive (besides the Star players) while I watched this game I'm Glad someone noticed. He did beautiful rebounding making Smart decisions and that dunk at 8:15 nasty.
@@2XF03 I mean James Harden won MVP with offense alone so...🤷♂ "In team sports, a most valuable player award (abbreviated MVP award) is an honor typically bestowed upon an individual (or individuals, in the instance of a tie) whose individual performance is the greatest in an entire league, for a particular competition, or on a specific team."
I love the maturity. Despite the foul troubles, he showed us what is to come in such a short amount of playing time. He'll definitely be great. And can't forget about Luka. Such a clutch shot, over two defenders, one being the 7.5 foot demigod himself.
Luka was phenomenal but I really love what this Spurs core looks like. They will have growing pains in the clutch but their offense overall looks classic Spurs with all the motion and making the extra pass. Only real concern is their rebounding and overall defense but Victor should help with that when he’s on the floor. This will be a fun team to watch and will be in a lot of games.
@@yeoalex4678 nah this is fine. Ky will get his chances over the course of the season but Luka still the main guy and he will pull all the strings and makes all the decisions and the game will flow naturally for them.

It's easy to defeat your ruval when you have considerably more experience. Luka is a solid regular season guy but his post season record is sub par below 500 zi believe. Irving has been in the league a long while but before this tandem is heralded as the best in the league let's see where Mavs are after 20 30 50 games Regardless of the mistakes Wemby made the Spurs where right there and they battled by far the older Mavericks Their defensive lapses can be corrected and improved upon. As Spurs fan I anticipated Wemby would be in early foul trouble which effectively neutralized any contribution he might have made It reminded me how Kareem was treated his rookie season And he turned put to be one of the best to ever play I believe the Spurs will be better than any one had anticipated. Winning one game does not a season make Spurs will improve over the long haul but will the Mavs rest on their opening day win?
Finally, the Mavs look like they have chemistry with Kyrie now. They seemed rough when they first got him. Now he and Luka look great together. Lively looked like a monster out there. Very good Mavs.
Eh I wouldn't speak so soon, kyrie is notorious for his negative impact in the locker room and on the court. Definitely too soon to assume anything good will come from this
To you casual observers who look only at scores and highlights, Kay has been amazing from day 1. Defense and rim protection was our problem, now we got Lively and Grant Williams, and a very deep team. Whoever says Kyrie was a cancer in the locker room, I challenge you to name 1 player that speaks bad about Kay, you won’t find any. The media doesn’t count.
Note how unselfish Kyrie is (not only now, of course, but very notably since the day 1with the Mavs), a really team player, being a great finisher he passes the ball whenever he sees a teammate in at least a bit better position or movement. Very much unlike Luka, who would pass only if he is stuck with the ball and blocked from shooting it
I know all the flowers will be for wemby, but Lively is the absolute TRUTH Exactly what the Mavs needed It's a great week to be a Dallas sports fan, go Rangers.
@@JOKONU99 Yep, they are going to miss Christian Wood but if Lively could play like this regularly, they'll be good. Williams is pretty solid too. Richaun Holmes and Dwight Powell also bring that big man athleticism off the bench.
The 3 key points of this game: Luka is him When Wemby will adjust to the softness of the NBA and stop doing rookie mistakes, he will be great “Lively played fucking well" (I wasn’t personally familiar with his game)
He’s a rookie how can he stop doing rookie mistakes 😂😂 the league he was in was softer than the nba which is why he got drafted dumbass 😂 staff off UA-cam
@@mcmerry2846 sure but Dallas wasnt called those dumb screen fouls and the guy who tripped him and he got called the foul aswell, suddenly whole SA were in foul trouble out of nowhere and Luka not a damn single foul dont tell me if that is not bs.
1:10 Doncic is so good.. He's double teamed, and Wemby covering a lot of space, so he had the calmness of mind to not just make the pass but to take it slow, dribble and fake a shot to quickly pass it to the open man.
@@jahfreep the coaching staff is still figuring them out. Pop is just letting them do their thing offensively because wemby has an awkward position. They'll be fine 👍
Man I love being a Spurs fan in this day and age. Wemby is special! 2 Texas teams going at it!! This only the beginning we got a lot of basketball left!! The energy in that stadium was beyond amazing…felt like the old glory days. We got something cooking up for the next decade! We back baby! San Antonio Spurs less gooo
I adore Luka and his play style. Bird/Magic combination. But Victor.... this is his first game, emotions and all that. I have no doubt that Pop knows how and what to do with him. He is only 19 years old and I truly believe that he will develop faster then the other rookies
Dallas played like an experienced team tonight. Great win, and I will have my eyes on this San Antonio team as I suspect they will make it to the playoffs
That is a bit of an ask for this young squad, they have a lot of potential but missing some pieces which id imagine they will add when things gel, and they get some experience behind them.
They won't make the playoffs since the west is too competitive and they are young and inexperienced but they are definitely a very exciting team for the future.
Congrats to Mavs ! Kyrie and Luka were accurate exactly when needed, Lively is MASSIVE, Grant's, defence and 3's was fine, other Mavs "classics" Green, Maxi, Junior, were shiny, to me.
San Antonio will be the most scariest team someday. They all young and talented, plus they are handled by a legendary couch. Like what happened to Tim Duncan Tony Parker and Manu.,..
The Mavs should be back in the playoffs this season. Kidd changed up Luka's rest schedule during the game from last season, and that's going to make a huge difference in the long run.
@kevinkusman9137 Luka can win a chip playing exactly like he does. Just give him a squad that can compete with the best teams and Luka will lead them to the promised land.
Mavs played kinda well overall (except for 1st quarter defense), but this was just the Spurs (practically without Wemby), so it shouldn't have gone down to the wire. Very hard to imagine them beating the Suns or the Nuggets in a playoff series, even if Luka and Kyrie go beserk. At the end of the day the team is basically them plus some inconsistent randos, as per usual. Grant Williams and Lively look like promising additions (glad I didn't have to see Dwight Powell's face tonight), but Mavs have a lot to show before they can be considered a competitive team in the West.
Victor Wembanyama is one of the most intriguing prospects I've ever seen enter the league, thanks to his incredible size, length, mobility and awesome skill level. He is a point guard's dream as a lob catcher, having the ability to reach highs that few players can. Has good footwork in the post but his special power comes From his defensive anchor potential, as well as the ability to slide his feet away from the basket. He should serve as a major asset in pick-and-roll coverage. Kid is going to be the next face of the league.
@@nelAjamZ both is great in different stats but both are really dominant. Jokic offense is the best in the league right now and Giannis is arguably the best defender in the league right now.
Un premier match correct pour Victor wembanyama, il y avait beaucoup de pression c'était très difficile il a su tout de même tirer son épingle du jeu et montrer qu'il est capable d'être très efficace, une montée en puissance sera attendu pour les prochains matchs
Damn Luka is so damn crafty and accurate near the basket its crazy. i mean i get it, his size helps a lot but his finishing near the basket is just incredible
Where did the have Kyrie ranked again?😂 Ngl the presence of Victor on the floor alone feels like it alters enter defenses, guys are way more cautious and hesitant to drive the ball or even pull up from mid-range. And I'm always laughing at how Luka doesn't need to be quick with any move but it's still potent
Cos Luka actually plays like Lebron (a less athletic one but a better shooter) so Ky has good familiarity playing as a partner to that and as long as Kyrie dont have any off-court issues, he is ofc a great addition to any team with his handles and shooting ability and certainly an even better teammate for a playmaker like Luka or say, Jokic cos they will be able to amplify his strengths even more
@@2XF03 He had good offensive stats but he was not good on defense. That was just one play. He could play good defense in short spurts but most of the game he would rest on defense.
@MrC77 he definitely was good on defense, such a hater, he had lockdown D in his Miami days and didn't just drop off completely, still stopped other stars, sometimes he get lazy but so does everyone else.
They played Wemby about the perfect amount of minutes for his debut. Gotta give him a chance to get a feel for the game without getting injured or overplaying even though they probably could have won if he had 5-10 more minutes. This team will be dangerous by end of season
the premiere of VICTOR was spoiled by defeat! despite this, he was still in play with a big run at the end of the match!! He learns quickly, and I liked the way he left the floor to get dirty with his opponents. This proves that he blames himself for the defeat and that he is not here to make friends! he remains focused for the second match! raise your head Victor this is only the beginning....
Most impressive thing for me was the steals wemby had. Dude that big, you just cant move the ball through the paint. His wingspan basically covers the whole area.
If Wemby teammates let Wemby lead them and go crazy they would win and get a lot more looks.. he could have an amazing season if his boys help him glow
Johnson is a prime example of having envy for a player. wemby was hot and he decided to not pass it to him when he was wide open twice. and cost two turnovers to sell the game. dude need to learn his place
WOW phenomenal game 🔥 great win for Mavs ! Lively looked good ! And ky and luka shined & wemby is def special you see the passion and the shooting guard for spurs got love for the game too an it shows ! Salute to both teams 👏🏾 💯
It's his first game, he'll get defense from pop. Imo he still looks like a power forward due to his body build. Like a taller Tim Duncan , put a small center and make Wemby a PF , the spurs will dominate in the future. I think he did well in his first game.
100 % facts...if they would have just fed wemby , he would have gotten them this game...even with the foul trouble...this one is pop fault...he should told those guys to ontinue to feed wemby period !!!!
We're all assuming that Pop wasn't making the calls here. My view on the game was that by Wemby posting up it opened the court for the rest of the team. They have to learn how to play in both ways. Wemby had a great 4th quarter but definitely got himself in foul trouble which made things hard. The first half the Spurs were doing fine, even without getting the ball to Wemby in the post. We started to drop off once we got in foul trouble. We were +/- 0 points with Wemby on the court. When Osman had to start filling in I think we dropped off a bit. We'll learn from this. Less fouls lads!
He could’ve saved Win the game if they gave him the Ball its just ridiculous at this point the Guy is standing there taller than everyone just give him the darn ball smh
Dang this game was so close until the last minute after Luka just surgically dismantled the Spurs offensively and defensively. too bad Wemby had limited playtime due to foul trouble. We'll bounce back next game and GGs to the Mavs as always.
@Eric_Rawnsley I mean... he has 5 turnovers... as a Center. Yeah, I'mma hold back a bit on giving him the ball now. Let him get accustomed to the League first.
@scipio764 yeah because the rest of the spurs players have had such great careers. Literally been a trash organization for years bottom of the league. Pass the ball the the future superstar of your team. This like lebron on the cavs his rookie year
9:02 bro what were they thinking, it's in these moments that Victor's presence is crucial and he would've got the rebound easily instead they some goofy shit not letting him get it I can't even explain it to myself
WEMBYANA NEEDS TO BE A BIGGER DEFENSIVE THREAT NO1 SCARED TO SHOOT OVER HIM. NEEDS TO ANTICIPATE STOPS MORE BETTER. SO HE GETS MORE BLOCKS. TOO MUCH FOCUS ON POINTGAURD PLAY.
@@shawnchia3611 I understand but cmon if they would've got em involved more they would've won the game, the aren't said the right tone. Needs to be brought to their attention
Cuban was seen kinda exhulting like they played GSW/ Nuggets/ Boston or it was play off time... I get that's the first game of the season but still, to struggle that much when you face a young and developing team like the Spurs while starting a more veteran squad counting Luka and Kyrie shouldn't make one this happy...
Grant Williams is such a great addition to this Mavs lineup. Could really be a game changer going forward.
Yes.His defensive skills can help them...He can also contribute when it matters the most
Definitely a helpful asset. If Kyrie can control his ego they might do good this season
@@norjihads.4144He's been to a finals, you can see he is not scared of shooting the ball in close games, Reggie Bullock would've bricked those 3s
his defense and shooting are really great, but I'd love to have pascal siakam though

Wemby gotta get through the growing pains of being in the NBA a few to many reckless fouls but he's special
He always able to produce in short time
Sure, it wasn’t like the refs were bullshitting all game.

@@2XF03 lebron hasnt been a good defender since his Miami days
@@2XF03 He had good offensive stats but he was not good on defense. That was just one play. He could play good defense in short spurts but most of the game he would rest on defense.
@MrC77 he definitely was good on defense, such a hater, he had lockdown D in his Miami days and didn't just drop off completely, still stopped other stars, sometimes he get lazy but so does everyone else.
They played Wemby about the perfect amount of minutes for his debut. Gotta give him a chance to get a feel for the game without getting injured or overplaying even though they probably could have won if he had 5-10 more minutes. This team will be dangerous by end of season
Never seen better highlights in my life!🤩I will become a Dallas Mavericks fan!😉🥳🤯
the premiere of VICTOR was spoiled by defeat! despite this, he was still in play with a big run at the end of the match!! He learns quickly, and I liked the way he left the floor to get dirty with his opponents. This proves that he blames himself for the defeat and that he is not here to make friends! he remains focused for the second match! raise your head Victor this is only the beginning....
Lively is everything Willie Cauley-Stein was supposed to be.
Everyone has got bounce and can shoot from anywhere. There’s so much talent in today’s NBA. It’s just crazy.
Most impressive thing for me was the steals wemby had. Dude that big, you just cant move the ball through the paint. His wingspan basically covers the whole area.
bro the pass from 8:53 from luka in the middle to kyrie wide open was perfect
You came for Wemby and stayed for Luka
Williams is such an underrated pickup for Dallas, especially on the defensive end.
If Wemby teammates let Wemby lead them and go crazy they would win and get a lot more looks.. he could have an amazing season if his boys help him glow
LUKA, STEP-BACK, LA JUMPA!! 🔥 😂
Johnson is a prime example of having envy for a player. wemby was hot and he decided to not pass it to him when he was wide open twice. and cost two turnovers to sell the game. dude need to learn his place
Agreed I'm like feed him wtf 😒
I think they will get better with that once they start drawing up plays for Wemby but I hear you on that.
Keldon had a better game then wemby
Wemby is just insane. Cannot wait to see him grow throughout the years.👽👽💗💗‼‼
loved this game , beat game so far in this season
WOW phenomenal game 🔥 great win for Mavs ! Lively looked good ! And ky and luka shined & wemby is def special you see the passion and the shooting guard for spurs got love for the game too an it shows ! Salute to both teams 👏🏾 💯
Spurs failed to get Vic the ball down the stretch
開幕早々ベストゲームだな
ドンチッチ最高
カイリーとのコンビ強力〜
ウェンビーも目が離せない
Wemby was cooking and his teammates refused to pass to him after he missed 1 shot smh
They dont want him to shine.
Been watching Free Dawkins since high school 2013 💪🏾
I expected to see dome wild stuff from Wemby, but instead Lively put on a show 🔥
So did Wemby lol wtf
Dončić got away with a foul on Sochan at the end there. That changed the momentum of the game and probably got the Mavericks the win.
Dallas looks very good… Luka x Kyrie is THE BEST backcourt in NBA… no contest 💯
Lively looking like a huge pleasant surprise as well
San Antonio will pick up many many wins with team performances like that. Props to Dallas they came to win. Two serious contenders.
Wemby is a liability defensively in a small ball lineup, but i hope he could be more agile and stronger
It's his first game, he'll get defense from pop. Imo he still looks like a power forward due to his body build. Like a taller Tim Duncan , put a small center and make Wemby a PF , the spurs will dominate in the future. I think he did well in his first game.
Sant Antonio looks amazing. Great defense great offense. We need more games but I think play in.
after 18 years this guy wemby will become a hall of famer
You think his knees will go that far?
Came for Weby stayed for the energy and pace! That was crazy, like a play off game, so much hustle on both ends.
Luka is just pure gold!
yooooooo that game was crazy!!!! both teams have crazy firepower
Weird to see Wemby not be given the ball every time he posts up, this new 3 based NBA has made young players dumb as rocks
Yeah and the fact Tre Jones and Zach Collins are the only Spurs players who can pass compounds the problem
100 % facts...if they would have just fed wemby , he would have gotten them this game...even with the foul trouble...this one is pop fault...he should told those guys to ontinue to feed wemby period !!!!
@@jonsmith6506Pop knows the value of team basketball. He'll teach them to be the best they can be I think he knows a thing or two about winning
We're all assuming that Pop wasn't making the calls here. My view on the game was that by Wemby posting up it opened the court for the rest of the team. They have to learn how to play in both ways. Wemby had a great 4th quarter but definitely got himself in foul trouble which made things hard. The first half the Spurs were doing fine, even without getting the ball to Wemby in the post. We started to drop off once we got in foul trouble. We were +/- 0 points with Wemby on the court. When Osman had to start filling in I think we dropped off a bit. We'll learn from this. Less fouls lads!
He could’ve saved Win the game if they gave him the Ball its just ridiculous at this point the Guy is standing there taller than everyone just give him the darn ball smh
Insane game, thank you for the highlights. You are the best.
Dang this game was so close until the last minute after Luka just surgically dismantled the Spurs offensively and defensively.
too bad Wemby had limited playtime due to foul trouble. We'll bounce back next game and GGs to the Mavs as always.
excited for the Mavs this season. they still got so much more to show us. and damn the raw talent of Wemby...
Luka is too smooth.. too good!!! 🙌🏻
Superb editing. Not just the video, but also the Audio. 5 star all the way. Even better than NBA itself.
gonna watch this vid in 18 years from now so i can recall wemby's nba debut
You mean Dereck Lively’s Debut
Wembys teammates wouldn't even pass him the ball. Dude needs to get out of San Antonio it's a trash organization with trash players since Duncan left.
@Eric_Rawnsley I mean... he has 5 turnovers... as a Center.
Yeah, I'mma hold back a bit on giving him the ball now. Let him get accustomed to the League first.
@scipio764 yeah because the rest of the spurs players have had such great careers. Literally been a trash organization for years bottom of the league. Pass the ball the the future superstar of your team. This like lebron on the cavs his rookie year
9:02 bro what were they thinking, it's in these moments that Victor's presence is crucial and he would've got the rebound easily instead they some goofy shit not letting him get it I can't even explain it to myself
Luka always is consistency.
This is probably the best UA-cam channel for basketball highlights. Why look at anything else? This dude uploads so fast
Lively can be a star he's got the full package and the hairline, keep lifting weights and doing your squats young man
Thank you so much for including the box at the end!!!
Luka Magic back at it.
Superb audio and video editing. Thank you!
Luka will be the MVP this season.
WEMBYANA NEEDS TO BE A BIGGER DEFENSIVE THREAT NO1 SCARED TO SHOOT OVER HIM.
NEEDS TO ANTICIPATE STOPS MORE BETTER.
SO HE GETS MORE BLOCKS.
TOO MUCH FOCUS ON POINTGAURD PLAY.
Luka is just enjoying it, his tempo makes him hard to guard. And dallas successfully limited wemby minutes causing fouls problems for him.
That Number 2 Lively looks like such a good pick and roll partner for Luka
Wemby on the floor for 23 mins has made the Mavs struggle in the floor!
😂😂
I just discovered your channel. Your highlight format is A1.
Spurs needs to get wemby involved wtf
Just the first game, chill
@@shawnchia3611 I understand but cmon if they would've got em involved more they would've won the game, the aren't said the right tone. Needs to be brought to their attention
最後ドンチッチのスターパワーにやられた感じだけど、スパーズの若い選手達も
自分達も十分にイケると思って戦ってたの積極的なプレー見て伝わってきた
ドンチッチとカイリーのコンビなんて反則級だけどスパーズもこれから楽しみだよね
It is crazy how quickly NBA players got adapted to Wemby's length and were able to score in front of him again after one or two blocks.
Yeah
All of them are monster
Cuban was seen kinda exhulting like they played GSW/ Nuggets/ Boston or it was play off time...
I get that's the first game of the season but still, to struggle that much when you face a young and developing team like the Spurs while starting a more veteran squad counting Luka and Kyrie shouldn't make one this happy...
Luka is crazy
that Kyrie and Luka, 1-2 punch really was too much. Overall, I was more impressed with Wemby under the pressure against 2 big names.
