Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 вер 2024
- Kyrie Irving finally performed like the Kyrie Irving we know in Game 3 of the NBA Finals and Luka Doncic did what Luka Doncic does until he fouled out with 3 minutes left. None the less, the Boston Celtics have been able to execute a gameplan that exposes the elite isolation play of Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving. So in today's video, we breakdown how the Boston Celtics were able to use Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving's 1v1 skill against them and find themselves up 3-0.

That’s hilarious cause I’ve been calling him Luka Harden this series, can’t defend, only shoots. If James hasn’t won like that, neither will Luka. Damn, RIP Kobe.
That's hilarious, because Luka leads the Playoffs in steals and deflections, and has the highest defensive rating for his team.
What low BBIQ casuals can't understand is the Mavs' defense funnels drivers into rim-protectors, i.e. getting "blown by" is part of the scheme.
Nevermind the fact that Harden doesn't have things Luka has : a postgame, midrange shots like the Dirk fadeaway, floaters, scoops and up-and-unders. Nevermind the fact that Harden shrinks in the Playoffs and Luka elevates (he's hurt this postseason).
Keep using that Harden comparison, though. Makes it easy for people to tell you're low BBIQ.
@@VVVY777They're acting like defence is the main reason the Mavs are losing. The Celtics haven't scored 110 points this series. Mavs offence is the main reason they are down with Kyrie not showing up the first 2 games and the role players not contributing
Ive been telling people hes just white james harden with slightly better steals lol.
@@VVVY777can you add he also better at crying to refs, throwing temper tantrums and not getting back on defense making his team play 4v5. So much so it equals out how many steals he gets lol. Hes white james harden.
@@VVVY777you delusional 😂😂 he's not winning period unless he learns he ain't the number one on a winning team an he's not iso hasn't worked with anybody in a team game an it won't now
Your channel deserves WAY more subscribers. Especially since you offer so much more commentary and analysis compared to those bigger NBA-focused channels. Good stuff man 👍🏼
Agreed
His analysis sucks he says a bunch of nothing that doesn’t make sense. The Mavs were the second best team in the league… and the mavs emulate the team with Chris Paul that Kobe admitted had a shot at winning. Besides all that the Celtics are one of the best offensive and defensive teams in the league and if anybody in this modern era were to 3 peat it would be them. A stacked team where everyone knows and plays their role is unbeatable. Mavs just don’t have the firepower.
@@jordanjohnson9498 Your analysis overlooks several critical points. First, the Mavs were not the second-best team during the regular season; they reached the finals despite this. The real issue isn't a lack of firepower but a deficiency in ball movement, as highlighted in the video. The success of teams like the one with Chris Paul, which Kobe Bryant acknowledged, stems from Paul's ability to distribute the ball and read defenses effectively. Firepower alone doesn't win championships.
The Celtics' success as one of the best offensive and defensive teams is a result of over a decade of meticulous team-building, not just recent efforts. While their team is strong, they are not unbeatable. The video pointed out that the Mavs' hero-ball approach is unsustainable for winning championships, particularly against balanced and defensively robust teams. This style might win them a game or two but isn't a championship-winning strategy.
If the Mavs eventually secure a championship, it will likely be due to a roster filled with all-stars. They are already adding top players like Kyrie Irving and Klay Thompson and might continue to add more, transforming into a team of all-stars surrounding Luka Doncic.
The Celtics are proof that you don't need a roster full of offensively gifted, talented players to win championships. All you need is strong defense and effective ball movement. That's all it takes to build a championship-winning team.
You hest player moving off the ball is so underrated
This is a nice breakdown good video. I like how you used Kobe at the beginning and showed how he was right.
I think the association is getting close to bucking heliocentrism as a trend. It’s out of vogue atm, but scheming Luka into triple threat mismatches at the elbow could open things up for the Mavs offense. I know that goes against modern NBA metas, but I think Luka generates more gravity two dribbles from three different parts of the paint than always pounding out clock dancing above the line… as talented as he is at that dance.
As an aside, and I’m prepared to be clowned over this because of rings culture, but a lot of modern stars could learn a ton watching Melo’s tape from 2012 to 2014.
They just need ball movement. They destroy the performance of the role players who are cold and out of sync because they probably haven't touched the ball in minutes or at all.
I agree with you. Luka can play in the isolation against just about anyone but they need to move the ball around before allowing him to isolate.
@@TheChrismeg34that's because they literally let him😂 if they plsy defence on him he done locked up an struggling just get yo team involved he aint Jordan this a team game anbin the end teams win not individuals he'll be a loser his whole career until he put that ego aside an play system driven basketball Kyrie should Kno this by now it ain't worked for him either his whole career but they delusional they think they both number one options on a winning team an they just really good number twos like Kevin Durant
Can't use the gravity effectively if he doesn't play off-ball
They made the Finals. This is the worlds most reactionary & shallow take. They beat OKC & Wolves without much problem. They ran into the most talented team we have seen in many many years.
It's also just living off of a perception of the Mavs from a year ago. Many dudes brought the ball up. They passed the ball around. Luka was not playing his best & other guys did not show up.
As a kyrie fan this video is spot on! Hopefully Mavs learn from this
I feel like you’d be a better coach than Jason Kidd
Luka's piss-poor defense and ball dominant playstyle is the reason why the Mavs lost the series, and pairing him up with another player that has elite offense but awful defense wasn't a great idea (who knew) if he doesn't adjust his playstyle his career is gonna end up like Harden.
Ok so EVERY-other-way* of playing is even worse and makes you lose more since Luka and the Mavs are in the finals.
*Except having an all time STACKED team with a DEEP bench ie Celtics.
Bro not making no sense whatsoever.. only thing that is true is when he talks about Luka’s effort and the death of heliocentric basketball. The reason for the death of heliocentric basketball is different tho. Star players have a harder time being consistent and one bad night can determine the series which makes it harder to win. Not because it’s an inherently worse style of basketball. Truth is Ky and Luka supposed to be more efficient to draw that help defense that gets the team game going. For Boston it was rarely ever not worth it to let the iso players iso even though under normal circumstances Ky and Luka woulda torched the d and kicked it to the perimeter.
Timberwolves switched up after they played the nuggets.. they put Edwards on Kyrie and tried to play dribble ball through him and Kat.. The clippers have George, Westbrook and harden.. all they do is play dribble ball.. the thunder plays dribble ball through shai
The Mavs can beat other teams that play like them..but it's a different game when you're going up against an actual team
@@jordanjohnson9498 they're not going to be efficient though.. same thing happened to Bron, Russ, harden, Dame, Kobe and more. And their teammates will be out of rhythm
@@alexanderjackson8389 but it’s not like they teams ain’t win. I think it relies on the guys who aren’t touching the balls capabilities to highlight the players that are the stars. For example the Knicks this year. Jalen Brunson had crazy usage but that didn’t stop the whole team from finding ways to make his job as easy as possible.
@@jordanjohnson9498 they can't highlight the player if they aren't touching the ball.. i know it seems weird but when an iso ball player continually hits tough shots, players give less effort on the offensive board.. so they can't get rhythm by shooting or offensive board.. then you will hear players like Bron, Westbrook, Luka, Kobe, Harden and Dame have "no help".. they're not being used properly...
Luka has to be better off- ball, use his gravity to their advantage.. it doesn't necessarily need to be only catch and shoot 3s either. It could be like the 2012 heat where Wade and LeBron would make calculated cuts to the basket
Luka Doncic is James Harden 2.0
That's hilarious, because Luka leads the Playoffs in steals and deflections, and has the highest defensive rating for his team.

Hardens actually been good at defense as well
@@VVVY777 harden played the same way defensively.. they would blow by to meet Capela..Harden could also get steals.. that's easy to take advantage of in the playoffs...
It doesn't matter what moves you can do, if there's no ball movement. your teammates will be out of rhythm and when you get tired, you can't rely on them..
Can't wait in 4 years when he wins a chip, this vid will get a splash of views
Only one team can win title, 2nd place doesn’t mean can not win.
Good shi
Excellent analysis but I would suggest that Luka's 1v1 isn't really elite. He does the same off-tempo, step-back moves and his handle is ok. His game is most similar to Joe Johnson and Harden, with more ball dominance and passing. What makes him and guys like Brunson, SGA and a few others so formidable is the floor spacing and roll threat of the Curry Era. Because the lane is WIDE OPEN, you don't have to be an elite 1v1 player if you can shoot well from distance and get players off balance. Luka's size also lets him literally push off most defenders once he's in the lane and step back or pivot for a mid-range shot. In the regular season guys like this are difficult to handle if you can't individually match-up with them, kinda like Lebron. But in the playoffs you can focus on their weaknesses much more and make them one-dimensional. That's what Dallas did to SGA and that's what Boston is doing to Luka.
Luka 1v1 isn’t elite? Bruh 😂😂😂 u def just hating lol. That’s a crazy take. Luka be averaging triple doubles and cooking since he joined the league. He’s cooked pg and Kawhi NUMEROUS times in the playoffs. He also cooked Jaden McDaniels, antman, Dort etc…. All great defenders. Just stop it bro u sound like a hater foreal
@@purplesky4157cool but as you see that only got him so far once you get to the pinnacle and you get figured out what's next, yeah your a 1 on 1 demigod but as a selfless team player your subpar and on top that for a superstar your defense as bad as it gets so no it's not hating just practical reasoning is over looked now as hate by modern ball fans because y'all truly don't know x's and o's and what schemes are meant to be beat by a certain style. The lack of fundamentals coaching is showing more than ever is our play and conversation.
@@purplesky4157he was getting locked up by dort and tmann it was just the twolves look at his fg and 3p % in every series he was jacking up shots and crying for calls trying to foul bait for points. His 1v1 is just as elite as harden not that elite just flashy and they rely on the 1v1 way more than anyone else.
@@kevinlambert5854 Maybe you haven't seen Luka knees Bleeding that game in OKC😂
Luka was being pretty selfish
sub just from this video
Hire Tim Grover ass and work on being an elite two way player and lift some weights and Luka will he even better
The Celtics had 26 assists.
Dallas had 15.
Luka had 6 of them.
The ball doesn’t touch anyone else’s hand except for them to catch and shoot…
Ball dominant players are stat stuffers and need elite shooters…
Need at least ONE big that can stretch the floor, wings and guards HAVE to be catch and shoot guys.
The lack of touches limits the chances other player get to score, drive, be more of a threat. The others on Dallas make themselves easy to defend.
This is the same philosophy teams have used against LeBron in finals he’s lost ~ but he had great stats in those finals in which he lost because…. He always had the ball
What low BBIQ casuals can't understand, is that you play to the strengths of the roster you have. Why do you want anyone other than Luka and Kyrie playmaking and making decisions?
Low BBIQ casuals just parrot basketball platitudes- empty platitudes. Not every team can play like this "ideal" basketball low BBIQ fans envision due to personnel, roster, scheme, etc.
How low BBIQ is it to want to have non-playmakers "touch the ball", "playmake", etc.?
Nevermind that stats that the Mavs had an insane alley-oop count compared to everyone else, nevermind that Luka is a generational passer. Nah, you gotta stick to the low BBIQ empty parroted platitudes about team play and touching the ball or something.
Exactly you actually know basketball 💪🏽💯
Dallas likes Alley oops only 😂😂😂
It was the 2010s warriors who really helped me figure this out. It’s NEVER the teams that have close to League leading assist guys who actually pass the ball the best. I swear it’s always the teams that have like 6 guys over 3 assists, a couple around 5, a couple around 4, and like everyone who plays basically is over 2.
The Thunder back in Russ’ mvp days had an 11 assist guy and I think were bottom 3 in assists. Lol. I can’t believe some teams GMs haven’t figured this out.
however LeBron has way better defense than Luka
There it is right there, the great Kobe proven right once again. "You can't win a championship with this style of play." He said you got to move around, and what were the Mavs doing all three games? Ball watching. Ball watching while the two superstars cook, who then don't run back on defense and help with that when they miss shots. On D, it's 5 v 3. Even when they have the five on a set play, Mavs can't read the switches or put the wrong guys to switch off of.
There's no advantages for the Mavs, Celtics are too well rounded defensively. They stay down on Luka's fakes and he's too eager to draw fouls or to play slow, they're giving him the first read of just pulling up and he doesn't. He doesn't drive enough, doesn't move off the ball, all that, Kyrie i can't say the same, he's trying on both sides of the court, just he's so light he can't handle the physicality, plus he's been a little unlucky with his shooting and some of his finishing, although the Celtics made it really hard for him to get to the paint. He gets in his bag and gets bumped off and off balance immediately.
If they don't go against a historically great Celtics, they had a very great chance to win a championship though? Also with this style of play the Mavs wouldn't have made it out the first round, and then would only get as far as a conference finals, and now they had the audacity to lose to the better team. The goalposts always moving.
A bit odd coming from Kobe Bryant. The most ball dominant player of his era. But he was right. He never won anything without a 2nd option that was more efficient than him as 1st option.
@@Kermit_T_Frog definitely a bit ironic haha but he did learn to trust Fischer, Artest, Pau, Odom etc after Shaq left
@@Joshua_23 Gasol was easily the 2nd best player on the post Shaq teams. A True Shooting Percentage of 63.9% in his first year. Bryant, only 57.6%. People seem to forget how bad the Lakers were before Pau arrived.
Luka give up as much points as he score, it’s the finals and you barely putting effort in on defense
That's hilarious, because Luka leads the Playoffs in steals and deflections, and has the highest defensive rating for his team.

@@VVVY777you said all this just to let us know that you don’t actually watch the games lol
I don’t think it’s that, I think it’s his complaining to the refs, a lot of the times he does that it turns to a fast break 5 v 4 cause Luka just doesn’t listen. Sure he gets beat off the dribble but we knew he was never a good defender.
@@VVVY777 I disagree y'all have to stop stat watching it only tells half the story you can clearly tell Luka is giving minimum effort I'm not buying that he lets defenders blow by because of defensive scheme for 1 that's not smart basketball and it's leaving your bigs completely helpless as you see in this series.
@@VVVY777stop leaving this insecure goofy ass comment everywhere white boy Luka ain't doin shit special but crying playing poor defense an hogin the ball thinking he Kobe an more like smush parker he won't win shit any time soon they goin home tonight
It’s crazy how Luka is prime Harden, but don’t get called out like him. His stats are empty this series with how bad he got exposed.
Harden is like 1/3 of Luka's game. Harden had absolutely no bag. Luka will post you up, floater, mid range, pass from the post, make passes Harden can't even see, fake you out with his eyes.
People who compare them have a very low IQ. They see the step back & think they are the same when that is their only similarity.
A. He did get called out, and B. Took a FIVE seed to 3 straight upsets to make the finals while leading the league in like every category. They got beat by the team that was 10 games better than every other team in the league
You’re a very smart individual bro I can tell you really know this game. Most casuals only watch highlights and swear these players are perfect never watching in game mistakes and knowing the game in and out to understand why these teams lose and why these players actually hurt their team more than help. Keep making these vids bro. May your energy be protected.
Luka doesn’t hurt his team more than help.. neither does Kyrie.. yall are delusional
@@jordanjohnson9498 how
It’s also mathematically impossible to win when Luka and Kyrie take 12+ seconds to get their shots off then the Celtics go the other end and get quick buckets.
Iso ball always loses to elite team ball.
Always.
Watched this for years while Harden played in Houdton and the Warriors would always cook us.
Love the channel brother! Earned a subscriber. Keep up the good work/videos
Media holla'n we need a 3rd we have Tim Jr. Boy Been a killer but with this offense change the iso gods now lock the floor up. And with luka tryin to get his 30 piece now we stagnant but hey Larry Bird Swag sells alot of tickets and merch. Ppl forget Larry LOVED defense tho. He was wit da 💩 's. LUKA NOT LIKE THATTT
Bro if you were my basketball coach we wouldn't lose a game. You have major ball in brother!
Show the part where Kyrie basically didn’t show up for every game in Boston. A whole video on Luka's defense talking about THJ should touch the ball more, and the Mavs held the historic offensive Celtics to around 100 every night and Kyrie was held to 12 every time as well. Thats the real margin they lost on. But its not as sexy a storyline gotta have Kobe talk about Harden, like you did something. Harden only made a finals as a passenger on a KD team. They aren't the same this is lazy analysis and I know you're better than this but this is Brian Windhorst rudimentary blame the number 1 star bullshit.
This comment is invalid because he also made a video of kyrie in this finals
Man I am glad that you are breaking this down to a T - I have been saying this all year about Mr Dribble and this is why I will continue to say that Kai should lead the Offense, because there’s more ball movement, pace and element of surprise. In this Boston series this is what you need…everyone’s getting mad at the role players and I keep saying they need to touch the ball as well early to in order to get their rhythm going, they are not robots. Mr Dribble is a good player, he doesn’t understand the full concept of team play. Had he been discipline in our 1st home game and kept attacking because they couldn’t stop him Dallas definitely would have Won. You could clearly see what the game plan was and he just went Rogue.
I also blame Kidd, he made some horrible rotations this was a must win and you put the dagger 🗡️ in. He took Kai out and Boston damn near kept all their starters in. At this time it’s do or die and Kai is in better shape than Mr Dribble I know he could’ve stayed in the game with no problem.
Keep up the Good Work!
if making an NBA finals is not winning then sign me up for being a non-winner.
We're talking about winning championships here. Not 'winning' in general whatever that means.
Jason Kimm Jung Un n that North Korean Offense has failed this team. NOBODY cutting, NOBODY rolling to the rim. u targeted Al Horford and put up 40 jus to go back to that shitshow offense. Holy fuck
Here I'll maks this easy the Celtics had a historically great net rating and added fucking Jrue Holiday and Porzingis as luxury pieces to a perennial ECF team. The Mavs had about 5 months of continuity in a season already plagued by injuries and kept afloat until they overdelivered and exceeded expectations. They then lost to one of the most talented teams assembled, with a historically great net rating, because that team was better. It happens.
great video
indeed
Stop saying elite 1v1 basketball becuse Lukas defense is the opposite of his offense I’ve never seen anything like it in the nba besides jokic… can’t be a European thing, embid wemby and oorzingas are all high iq defenders.
And Josh Green was on fire in da first half bruh🤦🏽♂️.
Bruh, mavs have 2 stars and a bunch of regular role players lol. Celtics are stacked in comparison. Put Luka in tatums or jBs spot, it’s a sweep.
Ball movement and defense win championships almost everytime
Luka could win a title if he could handle the pressure better. Instead he falls apart by yelling at the refs, committing silly fouls and fouling out.
You're very good, very good.
Respect.
this is real analysis !!
#newsub Fantastic break down sire. Its refreshing to hear a realistic outlook on sports.
Basketball 🏀 is a team sport
Watched the the kyrie over dribbling vid and this one and you got a sub from me bruv
Could u analyze what went well in game 4 for the Mavs?
Dallas beat 2 teams better than them in the West and lose to the best team in the league in the finals mfs make these lazy analysis
Luka makes the offense really slow and predictable by giving the defense time to settle and kyrie ends up watching him. Luka makes the mavs front court work double time because he is getting blown by. Luka's baby tantrums energy is sickening giving out bad energy.
Mavs won in game 4 cause luka changed his attitude that his teammates feed on and Jkidd's adjustments, by putting the bigs and exum to play made a great impact on speed and easy rebounds. Board man get paid and defense win titles.
Luka makes the offense efficient and dissects defenses. IDK why people are insisting that Luka play away from his strengths. Why? It's "predictable"? If it's so predictable why couldn't teams stop it enough to prevent them from making the Finals?
Low BBIQ fans insist that players like Luka play this "ideal" fantasy style of basketball that everyone just parrots endlessly. Empty basketball platitudes.
You're arguing against 5x NBA 1st-team, 2 WCF in 3 years, 1 Finals appearance, Playoff appearance in 2nd season in the league, etc.
Go insist on someone else playing the way you want, because Luka has just powered his team to the Finals in the West and doesn't give a fuck how you want him to play.
@@VVVY7772nd comment I caught you glazing you need to stop speaking from a fan perspective it is clouding your judgement on real hoop conversations it's okay to be critical of your favorite players but making excuses and trying to right their wrongs is flat out disgusting nobody is above criticism especially as a professional Luka has a lot of work to do before he is ever a champion as much as your going to hate to hear this he is a James Harden clone and he will remain ringless if he doesn't change his selfish play style everything does not have to go through him especially when your sidekick is levels above you as a ball handler (Kyrie) Luka needs to learn how to play off ball and get to his spots and stop setting for step back 3's early in the shot clock.
@@VVVY777 if a hero ball faces another, then a hero ball team will advance.. that doesn't make that hero ball as good as a real team..
Wow. Excellent breakdown! 👏
You should make a story with every nba player with that title 🤣
Luka don't play no defense at all,can't win like that..
Glad I found your channel, always great content
Both sides of the ball. If only Luka saw these
great breakdown. this is coach level bro
It all comes down to bad coaching not implementing more ball movement and bringing luka´s attitude in line with the team.
'Bringing Luka's attitude in line with the team' lol good luck with that
I hate Iso ball its made the game too ball dominant and its easy to defend, the lack of team led schemes is frightening in the todays game.
It’s really not.
Saying this about someone who made a wcf and a finals at age 25 is nasty work
You can be a spectacularly talented player but if the ball is always in your hands you don't make the rest of your team better....and Noone no matter how talented wins a title alone.
@@MichaelBurnham-er5cx you just didn’t watch the playoffs for more of the series him and kyrie split the ball a lot with Luka moving off ball a lot and shooting a high percentage from catch and shoot, and also when he does have the ball why would you not want your efficient 34 ppg scorer who happens to be the best last second passer in the league with the ball ? When the roles players showed up they handled business and in the finals the Celtics were just the better team with the personnel and scheme to abuse are weaknesses not like Luka just lost to a terrible team they went 80-21 this year 🤣
@@mdlmkratos1697 Luka is trash
The goal is to win a finals
Why is it nasty work? Did he point out anything that was untrue? Did he say that this was a stain on Luka's legacy?
And it's weird you blame his teammates when before the trade deadline the Mavs were languishing around the play-in playing Luka ball but the moment they signed more defensive players to cover for his non existent defense, they get to 5th and make the finals so seems like his teammates more than held up their end.
As much as Luka carried them on offense they carried him on defense. Problem is that wasn't enough against a very gd Celtics team. Luka will have to greatly improve his defense since, as evidenced, a team can exploit one players poor defense way more than they can exploit one player's bad offense. That said his teammates should also take steps to better be able to generate their own points
If you play in a system that allows everybody to get in rhythm and pick your spots when to go iso it can work.
It how the warriors use to defend harden 2015 and 2019 where they just force him to beat them by home self and he got to be mega efficient and they attack on him defensively so Luka would be tired in 4 quarters where they need him the most
Bruh I love your breakdowns but youve gotta stop biting off Thinking Basketball's channel with the thumbnails
great break down
Luka makes the team pace so slow and predictable then while Luka is doing this kyrie is being passive with no sense of responsibility. Next is Luka makes his front court defense work double time because he keep letting the offense blow by him. What Kidd is great putting bigger guys inside the court, making the mavs pace faster and easy to get rebounds. Board man get paid and defense win titles.
Ooo
It works when you have the better team?
Yeah but won’t always have the better team. What happens if Dallas goes against another team with bigger players and better all around shooting than them? They gonna get cooked again.
I subscribed, you're going to be an amazing content creator, can't wait to see your production quality in the near future
Crazy how much of a basketball savant Kobe was and yet the mf barely did any of that shit he told harden to do in the game himself. He played more like harden than the advice he gave him.
U weren’t listening. 1) Kobe said you gotta do what you gotta do. Passing to bums isn’t an option. 2) i think that’s a way different team than this one. Heliocentric basketball works but you can only have 2 suns. Any more and usage, consistency and scoring gets iffy if they share the court (ex.clippers).
@@jordanjohnson9498 I heard him clear. When Phil Jackson came back he still had quite a few of them same “bums” you’re talking about and yet they were able to win. Kobe as great as he was was on bs sometimes. Knowing good and well he wasn’t doing that shit in the game himself. He has to be forced to by Phil just to win when he did.
@@jazzyjointz6864 yeah 05-07 he played like harden which is why the Lakers lost to the Suns after being up 3-1... 08 his numbers started to drop a little but he played within the team. Kobe wasn't holding the ball for a large amount of time, driving the ball and getting a cheap assist
@@alexanderjackson8389 exactly that’s all I’m saying. Don’t know why these cats be getting so upset for telling the truth.
I like the explanation of why that style doesn't work because I hate it.
Great video
And this is why I was hoping Boston could play the Mavericks in the Finals over all the other West teams. I knew it would be their best chance.
Why? It wasn’t even competitive. It was a boring series.
@@Velveteenvision I just wanted Boston to have the best chance at winning a ring. I knew they would matchup easier with them

@@pattdor7 yeah
They needed more give and go.
This title is true
Facts, in europe this is common sense tho 😭
Why Luka slow ass dnt get it 😂 he from their league
As if Kobe didn't shoot a lower percentage than Luka overall, didn't have Luka's passing and playmaking and had TERRIBLE SHOT SELECTION.
Kobe had the privilege of playing with Shaq, Gasol, etc. Luka fast-tracked a Mavs rebuilt and is ahead of schedule in every way.
But sure, let's pretend Luka hasn't made 2 WCF and a Finals ahead of schedule playing as an elite #1 scoring option and elite playmaker. Let's all insist Luka plays away from his strengths, because reasons.
Kobe won with all those players let me see how far luka can get with kwame brown and smush Parker?
Not even gonna hold you bruh luka was my favorite player before the finals but this mans mindset is horrible. Hes basically LeBron 2.0 and if you know, you know. Hes still a great player and I honestly think it's because of his maturity level 1st time in the finals. Hopefully he can figure it out. For now Giannis my goat
Yeah Luka assists fools people he's as selfish as they come and when he's not playing well he is by far the most atrocious person to watch in the league because he'll never stop forcing it to try something new.
Lebron 2.0??????? Nigga what.. the same dude whose most memorable play is a hustle play?
