Stephen A. reacts to Luka Doncic dropping 42 points on the Clippers in Game 5 | First Take 

These time stamps summarize every time Stephen A and Max talk about the Mavs vs Clippers

7 min isn’t enough time. They cover too many topics. They should break it up into 20 min segments like undisputed. That’s why undisputed is a way better show. Jenny isn’t in the back trying to talk over everyone😂

What's up with Stephens hair

Pretty much all sports media, the same thing every time, one person has one idea and the other has to explain why their wrong 🙄 no real content just garbage rhetorics that never change.

Kellerman literally just said “Rondo looked good last night” 😂😂😂 he was 0-6 from the field and with 1 point. He had more turnovers than points. Y’all need to kick Kellerman off the show he has no idea what he’s talking about when it comes to anything but Boxing. There’s a reason why ESPN ratings have dropped off.

💯💯💯

Facts my G

Patrick "the next 5 years are mine" Beverley played off the floor by a 22 year old. Tough scene

He should never have even started this season or last.. they now regret trading lou williams for rondo when they could had rondo last year an kept lou smh

@@RedCGaming12 agreed. I've been saying for the past 2 years all they need is a REAL point guard to run the team. If they were able to get Chris Paul at the beginning of the year or Lonzo Ball, they would be legit

Lol fr luka killing then boys

Hoping both LA teams get outta here

😂😂😂😂😂

Lakers missing their 2nd best player though. Not a fair comparison

You can’t fault the lakers there just not healthy and they haven’t been all season and they have already won a championship the clippers just choke over and over again

Duh.. But cuban need to fire that coach ... He not the right guy for this team

@@jonsnipe5484 you mean, he need to trade KP.

@@allenxavier6073 I like New York KP but Dallas KP needs to be traded. He just not putting effort. THJ is the second best player on the team.

@@allenxavier6073 yea that too.. Plus cuban should get lonzo so luka dont have to carry the load

@@lilpelusa it's not that simple. If you don't think he's worth other teams won't see what him either. They would get nothing for him. It's better to gamble and hope that he becomes something then to trade him for nothing

Then will they say the Lakers or LeBron kicked the Clippers and Kahwi out of LA 😂 Clippers need to win something

The relocated Clippers could play in the Seattle Kraken's new arena, the expansion NHL team. It's built for the hockey team to start for next season but was planned with NBA in mind.

@@eriklakeland3857 I get feeling that the Grizzlies or Pelicans are moving to the NW

or just back to San Diego the city deserves them and the chargers, two good competitive teams .

I like your idea but there are so many good players today maybe just add couple more teams 🤔

Two completely unoriginal points. Thanks for stating the obvious.

Ya'll should have seen this coming when he was 16 but the media always has an agenda against European/ROTW players when some of the greatest of all time have come from the ROTW

@Andy Gossard Yep. Remember this dude was a Euroleague champ at like 15.

@@TruthDissident 19**

@@ShutThePuck I've been saying he should have been the #1 pick. Even before that draft. So plenty of people saw this coming

Is not Olajuwon foreign as well ? I'd say Dirk is definitely the best from Europe but I would pick Hakeem over him.

Mark Cuban

How you gonna disrespect Hakeem like that

Giannis, Jokic, Embiid all foriegn. But Luka is the truth tho

I'm not going to lie I really haven't seen a single reel or tape of the dream I only know him based off. Older ppl saying he was the best paint skill player ever. No disrespect I was only speaking of who I knew and remembered

Bron play football ?

@@mateus2yuri who's stats better oh oh ok

Luka is a generational talent

I promise we tried

💀💀💀💀

That's on the coach. Carlisle stated last year that they didn't want him in the post. And Porzingis also said last season that it felt "weird" to be shooting so many threes. They've got to find a way to get everyone else in the game. Luka is doing too much.

Bro thinks he’s Kyle Korver 😂

It's not really Porzingis's game, and he doesn't necessarily want to play that way. Thing is, they do it because it's better for Luka, as he needs all the space he can to operate with how ball dominant he is, as he lead the league in both time of possession and Usage Rate and is even higher in this series in those categories. The two of them just aren't that great of a fit tbh.

@@jmp4177 the mavs problem is they don't have any facilititators or someone who can create for othets outside Bronson and doncic and u can't play them together so u gotta stagger there minutes

He wanted to square up so bad!

kawhi is deadass one of the best playoff performers but he got such a bad shot in that it didn't matter that he's so clutch. mf air balled. nothing wrong with airballing cuz it was a tough shot but there's something wrong with taking that shot in the first place

@@ibrahimmurad1360 he cannot lead a team. His 2nd time ever truly leading a team and he can’t get it done again

Rondo had shot an airball at crunch time of the game too lol. All of them were trash down the stretch again

@@gregorydunston2952 Rondo a role player not a top 5 player. I would expect to get laughed at saying this with Lebron and Rondo last year 🤣

@Dennis Leavitt yep he already knows the mechanics!

@Dennis Leavitt That just shows how good he was.

I saw that, really need to repost it? You're weak

@@Slenderirl why you so mad I just thought it was funny😭

Yup it's looking like none of the LA teams are going far this postseason.

@@Slenderirl u r sad

@@Slenderirl dang you goofy buddy 😂😂

Dont forget Ayton and MPJ that draft class is stacked.

just like Murray last year ! Yes, it's awesome !!

Don't forget Ja Morant. He lost but he did great things

@@ahmedrahim2500 yes! Thx for the reminder 🔥💯

Luka averaged 31 last playoff too. He's not growing up, he's already there.

Lol

@@michaeljordanbestplayereve1428 fax!

@Roll A Wood neither is lebron. mj is all time great in everything. also debatably best defender and scorer

Also: k-WHY Lennet

Not the best rn but I hear where u coming from

If he can have a deep playoff run he will definitely get that kinda praise

Not better then Kd

@@goatwooods4429 ...

GTFOH

Perfect time for that excuse to right 1st round against the team you wanted to play, Clippers have been pathetic every since the 3-1 lead give up in the bubble. I don’t need to hear Kawai tired after Luka drops 40 with a neck strain threw 3 quarters and 14 dimes for the game and Leonard only has 20. Clippers deserve to get bounced in the 1st round.

@@squadup22 They were pathetic against the Mavs last year as well, remember them trying to injure Luka? By the way, you can't load manage during the regular season, rest before playoffs and then say you're tired in the first round, not as the main guy at least. The Clippers changed a lot, but their place in the league is still being a laughingstock - as it had been for decades.

Now this is the twilight zone 😂 not the bubble 😂

That's crazy...

I'm loving it. Dallas finishes it at home.

This aged well...

Doncic is great, but the last few minutes he seemed to ball hog it too much.

Lol

🤣🤣🤣🤣

Went to Moses Malone school of speech

Well he did

Whenever someone says 3 quarters I always think it's the first 3 quarters. Got me thinkin luka only hit one 3 in the 4th. Lmao

😂😂😂😂 this is why I come to the comments

I hate how he always defends Kawhi until a no point of return where he just says oops and then back on his bandwagon. From the guy who switches his opinion the most on a player he showing a weirdly level of consistency

Aye I peeped that too.

Facts

@@austinhansen9079 steve is trash and cant make his mind up lol

It really is a travesty that they put play-off games in NBA TV. Most standard cable/online packages don't carry it, but they carry TNT. The Suns/Lakers game was over at half time, but the Blazers/Nuggets game was must-see TV... on a channel you have to pay extra for.

so funny and true

Booker isnt Young, the dude is 26, Tatum is not young either, neither is MItchell. Luka, Trae and Morant are the young guns right now. I cant imagine what Luka will do at 26.

Luka been different dont put his name in here.... bye

@@dustinbarlow1623 booker 24 bruh

The future is bright for the NBA.

@@dustinbarlow1623 Huh? Tatum just turned 23 about 3 months ago, how is that not young?

What battle? Lakers 17 rings, Clippers 0

Lol 😂. Savage. AD can't stay healthy

@@lashaxoperia5917 we’re talking about rn , last time i checked this lakers team only has one , them other championships ad Bron wasn’t even apart of so pipe down

😂😂😂

Mr Glass

Where were you after the Raptors won the title? Everyone was claiming Kawhi was the best player in the world. That means people thought he was better than LeBron

Btw huge fan of your channel, loved the 2k17 athletic finisher archetype 😂

I beg to differ especially because Kawhi always suddenly becomes the best player in the world when LeBron just so conveniently happens to be underachieving.

@@kingexclusivo I agree.

@@kingexclusivo Kawhi is talked about as the best player in the league. LeBron has GOAT expectations different ball game

They say you can still hear him when you listen closely 😂

Facts

Aaa... maybe because... it's true.

But curry has already choked many times lmaoo

All fax !!!

@@lessthanaminutenbaclips7409 aside from 2016 when has he choked? Kawhi had an arguably worse choke last year that evens it out, yet Max calls one an “all time great playoff performer” and the other one a “choker”.

I turned off my tv after that moment 🙆🏾🙆🏾🙆🏾

Last year they had Doc and they still failed bro, at this point it’s the players

So what was Docs problem? Two coaches who failed with as you say the best team on paper...yea it’s not the coaching

@@ShowahENT facts. The problem with doc Rivers was that that was his third blown 3-1 lead. This year's even more egregious. You have basically the same chord team, and you're going out on the first round. Buy a team who won last games. It is not a good look for Tyrone, who was known to be carried by lebron, to finally have his own team full of talent, and go out in the first round. That is unbelievably bad.

The fact you think this clippers team on paper has the most talent said it all 😂 you don’t know what you’re talking about ....

@@kingforte9246 he’s talking about in the series

“He can shoot it from the parking lot!”

“HE PULLING UP FROM FO’TY! THIS DUDE KD IS 7 FOOT PULLING UP FROM FO’TY!”

THHHHHHHHHIRTY

Wish Morant was on a better squad he has been ballin too

Yeah he's basically only reason Memphis made some leaps and bounds. Its cool as a fan though to see them all be what seems like more mature than the spoiled brats at the top of league. I hope they dont lose that

The tryna pretend like thet dont know 🤣

It’s not the staples center it’s the Clippers lmao

Unfortunately, you are the racist.

@@alokobaju8288 nah, actually you are. Of course you don’t see that tho hahaha

Rightfully so

Little crown dangling from the key gets me every time

Best part is I’ve never even seen the commercial

I know right...it's almost to the point where he want admit it but I actually think he wants Kawhi to be the King of LA.

@@dwightyawg7781 the summer kawhi signed with clippers he had commercials of him running la u can see on youtube

Cooking taste stale. Been on the counter for a couple weeks. Got anything new?

Who is SAS?

That’s old AF....... more importantly irrelevant

Nobody gives AF about Kwame bro, that mans will forever be the biggest NBA bust in NBA history, that is his legacy, so tired of this “Mommas Cooking” nonsense

Can someone explain what mommas cookin is. like it sounds to tacky after seeing it the hundredth time

😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣😅🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

BIG FACTS

Luka is scary fr

Between him and Trae these young cats is coming.

Dude shot 17 of 37. and only scored 42. Chill

@@dennisscott8703 1 for 8 in the 4th he was cooking before that. No chill needed he was on fire

@@dennisscott8703 you didn’t watch the game

I mean he creates literally all the offense for his team whenever he’s not out there it looks like they have no idea what to do and they give up runs,especially when his 2nd star is not helping him and tim GODaway jr has to step up

EXACTLY LOLOLOLOLOL FKING SAS

But its still diffrent in alot of ways Kawhi and pg played both 2 way players who are still young when on other end it was just lbj and help and bad rotation for the clippers both their stars was playing and the help was productive actually

Bruh a 36 year old lebron with no ad. It would be different if Lebron was 29

Yessir more excuses for Leflop James.

He sucked for the most of the game, he just had to stat pad during garbage time to make it seem like he played good. Lemickey is a huge fraud

Actually you can, one team has been battling injuries all season the other team is full of chokers. A lot of room to make fun of them.

no cap

@@dakota8381 yea but on twitter mfs ain’t gonna care. they just gonna slander the lakers 24/7

Hope the lakers get slaughtered 🙌🏽

@@RU-vidChannel-sn5hb facts

I been waiting for hours to upload it !!!!

@Delvier Demma i wouldn't think they would since Max said he thought Kawhi was the best player in the league and Luka is top 5 but they barely talk about it and discuss the sorry Knicks

Not true, like at all lol

@@Hosk17 he needs to become an elite defender to surpass LeBron. At his peak LeBron was a force at both end of the court.

2

I think he should of stayed in Toronto tbh

@@datboielijah1234 😂 facts

He knew he had no chance of another chip there. They got very lucky that everyone else was injured during that championship run. No way they would've won if any other team was healthy.

@Ghost-Legend* he knew it, that's why he left. It's time for you to come to terms with it also lol.

@@albertbravo1716 No chance? That roster was contending for the East before he got there, that's why they won - he was the missing piece. Then he dips to go to a city where he's not the best player anymore and someone built a team around him (for the first time) and he's not lived up to it so far. But yeah, the Raptors were good without him already, they could've repeated if he stayed.

Ratings are always high when the Lakers are winning nothing will ever change

Kawhi doesn't seem too eager chasing that match up either tbh.

You must missed the games Kawhi wasnt trying to guard him the first few games and when he did Luka still gave him buckets

Stop making excuses for Kawhi Leonard. Nobody wants to hear that. Kawhi is supposed to be the best two-way player and best perimeter defender in the league. This is where being quiet and laid back dooms him. He needs to attack on defense the same way he attacked on offense in Games 3 and 4 in Dallas. And if he was truly a dog, he would tell Ty Lue that he wanted to guard Luka Doncic from the gate in this series. All that "he's only one man" and "he can't control everything out there" is a load of garbage. He signed with the Clippers to not only win a title but to take Los Angeles from LeBron and he has failed to do so.

Chandler Parsons?

He let go of Nash... and blew up Dirk’s title team the year after they won...

@@tclass99 he did that because all of them were on the verge of retirement

@Kurt Cobain Do you think that you killed yourself or do you think Courtney Love killed you?

@@randomonium3742 I thought it was a shotgun?!

That would be such an epic finals. But it won't happen unfortunately. Because I don't think Atlanta has a chance, if the Mavs get past the Clippers, I can see them having a chance.

You don't know basketball at all you think you do but you don't. One thing about the culture of a basketball player is that sometimes they don't want to admit that they have to put more effort to cover a player and it's an ego thing but you wouldn't know that and sometimes ego keeps people from playing harder defense but you wouldn't know that and the other thing you don't know is that sometimes they just don't want to put the energy forth cuz they're hoping that he'll shoot himself out or start missing and the only time they get motivated is when their back is to the wall to clamp down and then he strikes me as somebody who when the time comes can be very easily clamped down... what is his history showed you as he brought anybody to the finals yet ?no and I don't expect you ever will but you wouldn't know that because you don't really know basketball but you think you do

luka was injured last game

Yeah cuase the clippers keep switching on the pick and roll...

And that was a step back three where kawhi hid behind the screener so everytime kawhi guards luka Luka spams the screen

Imagine Steph Curry on the Mavs. You get to pick your poison, double Luka and let Steph shoot or double Steph and let Luka solo kill whoever is in front of him.

Yes. Also what other good 3s shooters are on sale next seson?

Sometimes i wonder why on NBA2k much of thr pro players play the same style. All in the corners waiting for PG to pass. Inside an out all the time.

@@jedamak Mavs have JJ Reddick but he is injured.

@@niweshlekhak9646 but he wasnt really useful when he was on the court this season. I was thinking more of a Duncan Robinson, Joe Harris maybe...

@@allenslimeverson3874 doesn’t matter, Ty Lue trusted him, all he had to do was the lay the ball up Luka was not about to block that smfh

@@akhileshprayag3553 but he made the right play Mann had a clean drive to the basket man

@@redyoshi1873 just saying that pg could have taken matter in his own hand or even kahwi. Mann drove towards the basket with the expectation to meet luka there and to pass it and not to lay it up. He is not someone who can change it at the last second like some players. He went towards the basket with the mindset to pass.

You can't be a contender and avoid other teams, that's not how winners work. Their tanking showed how their mentality is not that of a winner.

It's one thing to miss. It's quite another to air ball it when you're not really covered.

Exactly he’s been carrying the clippers the whole series
