That shot by Derrick Jones Jr. over Chet in the 4th was amazing. What a monster make. The way he slide on the floor backwards all the way into Kidds arms who hoisted him up to help him get back on D was awesome to see. Jones Jr. had 2 great games in a row to pickup where PJ left off after game 4. And then to see PJ go from zero points to hit 2 monster 3’s in the final minutes to tie the game and then hit 2 free throws he had to have to take the lead. What a team win. This team is special.
@@jeremyo168 it definitely helped cause if the play would've played out Kyrie would have a put back and thunders would still have their time out to move the ball up the floor for a better shot so it worked out in a sense. But a game where the last play came down to the refs who wasn't giving dallas their calls is crazy.
No one is talking about Luka getting fouled twice and not getting a call late in the game. That drive to the paint was met with all body in the air that threw Luke to the ground on his back. The rules are that if the offensive player is in the air he can't be touched by the defense unless they a standing firmly on the ground. Both players were in the air and there was contact, no whare was the ball hit or touched by the defense. Luka gets a lot of fouls all game, that is part of his game. The refs are not recognizing this.
Mavs remind me of those old school well and throuhly coached teams in the 80's. Each player knows their duties to the overall team concept and strategy. Fricking OKC is some Dawgs. Extremely difficult difficult team to beat. I congratulate both teams. They went at it and left it all on the floor. Can't ask for more than that. 🎯🎯🎯
Mark Cuban was very happy all smiles like l said mavericks are the sleepers but they have a good team..Cuban will get another star 🌟 and spend more millions 😊😊😊😊😊😊
@@frankblack8266 Yes, but let's not forget Kai had 2 games in this series with just 9 points in 41 mins each. I love Kai, but he is Robin and Luka is Batman.
Yeah that team is all SGA. Kinda reminds me of the older Mavs teams wear it’s was all Luka and nothing else. When Chet and JDub are 25 this ends differently
One team won and the crew in the studio only talks about how good the losing team is and how they were so short of winning. How about some credit for Dallas, with Doncic who was not 100% fit in the series and sometimes really lame on the field, and the injured Maxi, whose defense and three-pointers were sorely missed by the team, and for the fighting spirit and excellent defense of Dallas that decided the series.
They won’t show them recognition until they win the title they don’t show Luka the respect he deserves but it’s all good. He doesn’t care about these doubters.
Doubtful he would have missed in the same way had SGA not fouled him. PJ was shooting off balance. Had he shot normally the ball would probably have bounced differently.
@@MichaelJwolf1984 that's also possible. Point being Kyrie probably wouldn't have been able to put the ball back because the shot trajectory would have been different.
NBA wanted OKC. You could tell by the fouls, the nba commercial, the talking heads nonsense. I think they knew the game was over a crossed their fingers thinking maybe pj will miss two. Idk? But it was over either way
Nobody talking about how Kyrie finna win a Chip with just Luka and a supporting cast....Shows Harden/Durant were the issue in Brooklyn and I wish people would mention that more. Luka is a team first oreinted player along with Kyrie. Stop their role players from shooting well, then they will make you pay..... Impossible to beat this team. Along with D.Live being a rookie?! Dynasty?!
Mr. Jefferson when you are on national TV as a commentator you should be as objective as posible . We understand how ansious you was to see OKC winning but is not fair for those viewers than wants the comments to be neutral.
I came here to say, the sheer number of times Richard Jefferson had to say (while rolling replay live in real time) "that's the right call" - that tells you how this game was supposed to go. The reffing was crazy, even down to interference - that 2nd call on the same possession with less than 15 seconds and a 1-pt game, to put OKC in the bonus???? Smh man this is the playoffs. But i don't blame OKC for the NBA putting thumbs on the scales to manufacture a G7.
they truly tried to force game 7. Even SGA foul was in favor of OKC. Without the foul call Kyries put back would have left maybe 1 second on the clock with Mavs up 1. Refs gave another chance for OKC to be in it.
Don't know about 'the best' but he's at 'his' best in this veteran role to go with Luka. I'm happy for him to have found a place/role where he's happy and not the team diva (I like Luka a lot btw but sheesh)
I don’t get why people hate lebron so much when he lost to the denver nuggets in the conference finals while people respecting sga for reaching 2nd round. Yow i am not suggesting people start hating sga for loosing but lebron should not be hated for loosing, you are pushing a 39 year old to win it all, and he is the 1st sometimes 2nd best player of his team. Just imagine that.
I keep screaming from the roof tops that these tall skinny dudes like Chet are not center bigs. Yeah they can shoot but suck at rebounding. They really just good for blocking shots
That was an even better “young” team than this one. I remember Durant and Westbrick were both 22. SGA is older than Luka. Chet is older than Lively by two years, other than Kyrie the teams not much younger.
let’s get real Celtics had a cake walk path. Every team from the West in the playoffs could wipe out the teams the Celtics played. Celtics are in for a rude awaking. They were never tested by real contenders the entire playoffs.
I love LUKAI ( the best DUO in the NBA ) and KAI is so great but espn even without fuc.... Stephan A is so rasist. They show only Kai interviev on the court... no Luka.
A "ranDu"m thawt 🤔...wow😮! LBJ ain't 14-0 in clinching games is he? But Cobra Kyrie is 😆 🤣 😂 this has gotta feel like Kobe doing gr8 after parting ways from Shaq, since he's parted ways from LBJ and he's at home watching 😆 🤣 😂 it's gonna be a trip to see if Shannon or Perkins will call out SAS for say'n he should retire and then not at the post interviews... 😆 🤣 😂
this maybe true but NBA also wants all games going 7. It was very obvious there attempts in game 6 .REFS so one sided .Even the last call was in favor for OKC .Remember without that foul call Kyries shot puts Mavs up 1 with less than a second on the clock. Refs forced PJ to make two in a row in order to miss 3rd to kill the clock. Talk about trying to fix a game. Mavs just too good with all the biased calls.
