Comparing Boston playoffs numbers vs Mavs seems completely irrelevant, due to the difference in strenth between East, and West this post season. Also that Celtecs has more championships back in the day. I don't think that will have any effect, unless you are implying that the NBA will rig the games for profit.
Lol even he himself talked about how east was a cakewalk, then busts out net rating in said cakewalk, completely useless. If Dallas were to play those bums Luka would be out by 4th quarter on most games cause they’d be blowouts.
yes, their net rating is a little inflated but it felt relevant to mention how historic it is regardless of their opponents. you can say the same about many of those high net rating teams that went on to win the championship.
I think Dallas' "tough" road is a bit of an exaggeration. Sure, there were three 50+ win teams, but the last two rounds they didn't play teams that played like they won 50+ wins. OKC is a very young and inexperienced team, not ready for the moment. Just look at their performance in their elimination game, against a good team they didn't have it. Minn choked that Conference Finals away, like I said, their stars just didn't show up. They may have been 50+ win teams but did they play like 50+ win teams? Not even close, I mean the Mavs were never in any threat of losing those series. As bad as Minn played they still lost their first 3 games very close, the Mavs weren't blowing them out of the building even when their stars didn't show up. Game 1: If I told you Towns & Ant combined for 12-36 with 35 points what would you expect that final to be? It was a 3 point game.(it was a comeback so credit there, but they got down when their best players weren't playing well) Game 2: Those two combined for 9-33 with 36 points, that was the Luka at the end 1 point game there. (it was a comeback so credit there, but they got down when their best players weren't playing well) Game 3: Ant finally has a good game but Towns once again, 5-18 for 14 points. Once again, does that scream "tough" there, beating a team where their two best players play like that? That was a choke, and Mavs should've won the first 2 by double digits (3rd one they won by 9, good enough there imo) Also, when you compared the duos; Dallas' vaunted amazing duo averaged a whopping .6 PPG more, that's essentially a wash and you didn't even talk about defense at all; the Boston's duo's defense is considerably better (though Dallas' has improved since the trade deadline, and I think you should look at their net rating since then too)
never in any threat? you already point out how close those series were with minnesota, so i don't know how you can say that when all but 1 game in that series came down to the final minutes. There is little history of teams lower than the 4th seed in a conference making it to the finals, and in every playoff game the majority of pundits favored the opposing team over the mavs. hindsight truly is 20/20.
@@reeseseater12 semantics, if a game is at risk a series can be at risk. So you're telling me that in the you had the mavs going to wcf from the start?
@@c0ugrhuntr first of all it’s no semantics, it’s a completely different statement. Secondly, that has absolutely nothing to do with what I said. Also I think we just saw the C’s are in a class above the teams the Mavs got past.
@reeseseater12 you know what I reread your essay and I still say they had a tough run. They were a fifth seed beating 3/4 top teams in the west. Yes they beat young less experienced teams, but it's not like the Mavs are some stacked powerhouse that is in the playoffs every year.
Bostons going to kill the Mavs.. Lbh Lukas getting a lot of praise cause he’s white.. But let’s look seriously.. Luka and the Mavs had JUST as much as “red carpet” rollout also.. They faced no team with more than 2 solid players, defensively they are underwhelming and a hornets fan I find it REMARKABLE PJs playing worst than he done for the Hornets statistically but Dallas fans think HES the key 😂… The BIGGEST point is Lukas stats are REALLY inflated.. We HAVE to be honest this man’s a SG getting started at PG basically and his team outside of Ky is a HS team at best.. Celtics beat Dallas EVERYTIME they played cause the plan’s easy.. Let Luka take ALL the shots he like.. Double Ky and make them rely on the role players.. Also Lukas no boogeyman.. He’s white Russell Westbrook.. A GREAT talent but not a good leader and that’s why it’s mostly on KY to secure the wins.. If Luka was in a LB like situation with Cleveland that man wouldn’t get pass the 2nd round at best.. I think he’s good but overrated and Bostons going to expose it easily..
Yes, yes…show Luka your hubris…he’s a basketball serial killer who feeds on projected anxiety…hold on to your basketball soul bro…the Pravi Reaper comes tonight 😵
@@DunningKrugerJnr 😂 nah I’m good, Dallas hasn’t beat the Celts in 5 games so far this year.. Lulka beats himself cause he HAS to carry a crazy load or they lose.. Man will drop 70 and his team will win by like 4 😂.. Celtics too balanced they got 7 people that LEGITIMATELY could gave you 20 on any night.. And they play defense on a whole different level compared to Dallas..
Those wouldn’t be the numbers had they faced wolves, okc, and clippers. They wouldn’t have beat the wolves in 5 either. It’s about matchups but even bigger than that is Luka.
Nice video. Dallas in 5 or 6. Kyrie and Luka gonna vg 8-10ppg in the 4th quarter and thats gonna be the difference. I remember hearing Kyrie say once "When the 4th quarter starts that's when it's winning time" or something so casually.
The NBA will not live the Luka thing down less than 2 yrs ago. They will make sure the CELTICS win as pay back. Luka will probably win a ring without Kyrie, I believe.
This is a weird family tree. Curry, and Butler are the fathers of the Celtics. JT and JB are the fathers of Luka doncic. Luka and Giannis are the father of Devin Booker.
Don’t reach for the Vaseline yet Boston fans…Luka is a reaper of basketball souls and he’s fuelled by the hot salty tears of people who doubted him 😂😂😂
headed into those 2019 Finals Kawhi was on a historic run. KD was injured and Steph was playing great but Kawhi was on another level. in 2007 Duncan finished ahead of Bron in MVP voting and had a tremendous impact on defense... both years were very close though.
Stats go out the window when the Finals arrive. Remember Kobe's Lakers against the Celtics in Game 7 with Ron Artest hitting the clutch 3 and saying "Kobe passed me the ball!" after the game. It's those small moments that will change everything. Luka and Kyrie as great playmakers make that happen for Mavs. I like Mavs in 6 or 7.
As Mavs fan, I worry a final against a Celtics team like this, with a fairly new rotation, might just be too much pressure. I don't doubt Luka, I just doubt the rest of the squad. I still believe, chances are not zero.
