The Cp3 suns won’t win a championship now . Last year and this year we’re there best chances with all the injury’s again . (I know injury’s are every year but next year clippers and nuggets will be full strength , jazz might do some big trades , warriors are only going to get better with team chemistry) And will suns even re sign deandre ayton? Cp3 will be 38 … the window is done and Chris Paul will Never win a championship
This Boston Celtics run seems EXTREMELY similar to the bucks run last season. Beating a team in the first round who everyone saw as under seeded and the favorite and now beating what alot of people saw as the favorite in the second round in a hard fought 7 games…
@@peterengel8601 nah most people said bucks in 6. People were just dumb. I was too. Heat had no off-season and injuries, and they had a terrible roster past butler herro bam and Robinson.
The Mavs also eliminated CP and Booker’s midrange which made their offensive games obsolete. I was surprised why the Pelicans kept on letting them get into midrange shots but the Mavs stopped it and the Suns looked lost.
Not necessarily, don’t forget the Suns literally won three games in the mid range, this came down to one thing and that’s mental toughness. As a Suns Fan I’ve been calling this team soft for two seasons straight and said we need dogs
Respect to Giannis. Even without Middleton he was able to carry this team to game 7. It just goes to show you how good he is, Pat, Jrue, Bobby, and Brooke stepped up, too. Injuries are a part of the game
Jrue played bad he tried to create offense tryna help but he was so ineffective. Felt like sometimes they need a bucket to calm them down they really missed Middleton
Facts. He tried the hardest throughout the whole series and didn’t give up until the end unlike some players (*cough* harden *cough*). Honestly, the Celtics got a better overall team and better amount of role players than the bucks. It showed with grant Williams stepping up big. Good job for the Celtics to move on to ECF but Miami is ready for y’all
It's crazy that we went from not expecting the Suns to even make the playoffs a couple years ago, to being disappointed that they aren't winning the championship. The NBA is wild.
Ya their window is closed . Cp3 will be 38 . Deandre ayton might not even be there . They clearly don’t have the team to go all the way so they need to do some tweaking . Booker and paul played like shit when it counted
@@Wickedtingzz na... they just hoping no team clears up cap space to offer ayton the max or portland offers ayton the max so they can get him for cheaper which i understand. A million is a lot of money.
I like underdog teams. Suns were last season and beginning this season. But since January, I've liked the Mavs more. They came out of nowhere yet been right there in plain sight.
The fact that they allowed 3 different guys score 20+ and didn’t even have one themselves is flat out embarrassing, especially when Devin Booker has scored 20+ every game in this series
What I think is even more insane is that the final box score had Phoenix’s highest scorer get half of Brunson’s point total which was a pretty average number for him this post season. Absolute lockdown by Dallas and major collapse by Phoenix. Warriors v Mavs is going to be one hell of a series.
@@lord6411 The mavs had good defense, but it wasn't that elite for booker, your main scorer to look this bad. Bro missed 2 wide open layups. Bro wasn't ready for prime time. And Ayton is so passive. He had Luka on him in the post and decided to pass it out. These boys were scared lol. Luka putting fear in these boys heart 😂😂
Devin won't win anything messing with a Kardashian anyway. Those girls RUIN basketball players, Ben Simmons, Blake Griffin, Kris Humphries, Lamar Odom, Tristan Thompson, their games got WORSE after messing with these chicks....SMH!!!
Shocked and disgusted by the Suns. Luka and Dinwiddie outscored the ENTIRE Suns team by 21 points 48-27. Never before have I seen 2 players smack a whole team. Congratulations to the Mavs! Their defense the last 2 games was stellar! Jason Kidd has done an amazing job with this team. Dinwiddie is BACK, baby!
@@LandryRobbins definitely, the suns coming into this series were the most complete team we seen this year but Dallas schemed extremely well and destroyed this team's greatest strength's and i am confident they can repeat that process against a shoot heavy warriors squad.
I knew this series would go 7, especially if the Mavs made the proper adjustments after the first two games. However, I was expecting a close game ending with a Luka step back 3 for the win not a blow out! I'll take it though 😂
Ya bro when I tuned in and saw they were up 40 !! Holy fuck I couldn’t believe it ! I thought for sure the mavs would fold because overall phx is the better team . (Apparently not tho)
I was definetly expecting it to be close like TO THE WIRE than luka closes it out like you were but jeez they whooped the Sun's 😳 I'm ngl Luka in the finals would be legendary
I remember in the beginning in the season, Kenny was saying how Dallas was the “worst good team ever” and now they in the conference finals, that’s why we must enjoy this game!
People need to recognize Dinwiddies performance in this game. Career High Playoff-performance in a G7, shooting 11/15 and 5/7 from 3. Luka and Spencer both had over 20 points at the half, while none of the Suns-players had more than 5 p.... That was the real difference-maker in this game.
And we thought it couldn’t get any worse than game 5 of the grizzlies-warriors series. Best record in the nba, at home, season on the line. What a stinker.
@@rodgalaurius7956 Idk Heat haven't even looked that good they have just had an easy path. You saw them struggling to score at times against the Sixers who are a bad defensive team with an injured Embiid and no chemistry. Celtics just look like they are on another level compared to the Heat, not to mention Tatum is gonna east up Herro, Robinson, Strus and Oladipo when they get switched on him.
Idk because when theg lost to houston eith harden on the bench and josh smith and corey brewer was giving them buckets before houston came back 3-1 was pretty bad

I’m a neutral so I don’t really care, but I just think it’s hilarious that Suns fans were on their high horse when the Warriors lost that game 5 against the Grizz and now in a game 7, yes 7 indeed, win or go home, they go and do this.
Luka came alive with the "Everybody act tough when they up" after the mavs got routed in game 5, I think Luka fully locked into JKidd system with more passing and less hero ball. But Goddamn Luka Game 7 is a different monster, dude was shooting efficiently and confident in every situation.
I'm in pain. Giannis played his heart out, but seeing Grant Williams go goku was trauma-inducing. At least Luka is still in it, but it looks so impossible to beat boston :/
The crazy thing is, before the trade deadline no one would believe that the mavs and. Celtics would beat the suns and bucks in a series. Who would have thought that adding white and dinwidde was enough to turn them into finals level teams
Well the bucks missed middleton and they went to game 7 without him. The matchup was fine but the celtics didnt have the better team, their role players performed better
Kenny I completely agree with you that losing a game 7 itself isn't the issue, you can live with a loss only one team can win but to go out like that on your home court is embarrassing and they should be ashamed of their effort. They allowed 23 2nd chance points and scored ZERO themselves. They got mopped from start to finish and showed no fight. Bucks can hang their heads high about their loss, the Suns can't and rightfully so.
I genuinely have never seen a collapse this bad in a Game 7. Im only 20 so this shit crazy to me. Btw Grant Williams is the man i love the boston celtics
Phoenix’s last chance to win a championship with Chris Paul was last year & this year .. the window is officially closed … they will still be atop of the western conference in the regular season but come playoff time , they will be the new Utah Jazz .
Nothing is written but people just don't understand how small is a championship window:contracts, injuries, age a lot of things must go perfect to even reach the finals
It's closed. CP3 fails to show up when it matters most and next year will be no different. Also Booker will win NOTHING messing with a Jenner/Kardashian, they ruin NBA players. Lastly, the league and media won't promote this team anyway because they're small market and Booker isn't their chosen one to promote. It's Luka. Phoenix will get the Utah Jazz treatment....SMH!!!
Celtics probably having one of the hardest title runs in recent memory. If they beat the heat then presumably the Warriors it’s gonna be damn impressive.
What does this do for Luka’s legacy so far? I know he’s early in his career.. and this definitely isn’t the finals.. but he showed out this entire series against the 1 seed and championship favorie.
he’s well on his way to becoming one of the greatest of all time, i can’t remember a player who had a better first 4 years in the league in NBA history, maybe MJ Lebron Magic or Kareem but those are 4 top 5 players of all time, he is truly a special player
This does literally nothing for his legacy. No great player is judged by "made 1 conference finals". It's not really an accomplishment for someone at his level.
Random noises content because he’s never played with a top 5 player. Everybody knows you need a top 5 player to win a chip. Giannis, Lebron, Kawhi, curry. That was the last 5 chips.
@@alitty3224 he did have a top 5 in james harden in Houston to man injuries suck his career is so much like A.I was a great player who a top guard got a team to the finals and lost
You go from one of the worst teams to a no1 seed and favorite who were expected to win and you feel this way from a lose in the semi's that to after a finals where they were expected to win ........ Feels like you're a bandwagon fan due to their recent success
Awesome video, great commentary. Subscribing. Came looking for more on this absolutely insane performance. Never seen a game 7 end before halftime like that. The Mavs defensive tone set by Do and Bullock is absolutely enormous. Bullock absence was felt big time by the Knicks. Luka historic.
kenny i just wanted to say i really appreciate the tweet you sent out after the buffalo shootings. (if it was about that) ik it was just a tweet but that goes a long way ❤️ i also really appreciated the moment of silence they had before the game for both milwaukee and buffalo.
Being a pelicans fan, i honestly think the suns had plateau'd this season several games in our series chris had to go god like and record breaking, i think by the time it got to the mavs chris especially was spent
I'll be honest, I think Booker doing his mocking that he did woke up a beast in not just Luka but the Mavs team as a whole. I think what happened is that the Sun's believed the hype, and in the game of basketball that is one of the worst things that you can do. Look at the Big 3 Heat when they played Dirk and the Mavs. Prime example.
@@nehxxI don't know about a Mavs curse as much as an underdogs curse. Raptors did the same thing to KD Steph and Golden State after they took out the 1 seed Sixers.
2 days ago, I made a comment somewhere where I said that Game 7 experience was going to play a HUGE role in the Suns/Mavs game. Dallas was in a Game 7 just last year against the team that had a healthy Kawhi Leonard and Paul George while Phoenix hadn't been in a Game 7 since 2006 (ironically against the Mavs too). While the Suns have been dominant all regular season, their Achilles heel was the pressure of a game 7. They were at a disadvantage as soon as they lost game 6.
Everyone was clowning the 76ers for losing to the one seed with a hurt mvp but now everyone can finally shift to this series as the most embarrassing series this playoffs
I feel like people were clowning the 76s bc they traded for harden who should have been able to take over but he's starting to decline. Also the biggest reason JE didn't win MVP is he just can't stay healthy, plus the 76s can still make the playoffs without Embiid but the nuggets are a lottery team without Jokic; I really thought Embiid was MVP this year tho
@@chefwards6959 ya but to get over the hump . Unless they just play insane basketball I don’t think they can beat the heat or Celtics (let alone the warriors). Never know though But ya getting rid of KP was the right move I agree - cuz they can move bertan or dinwiddie easier and don’t have the max cap burden in 1 player who’s always injured and doesn’t wanna be there
Hope you and the fam are doing good Kenny, you entertain me and make me forget about everything else going on after school/work everyday man much love ✊
The Suns collapse hurts more knowing how much work they did this season. Yet I guess that doesn't mean 💩 in the playoffs. Hats off to Jason Kidd and the Mavs for an ass whooping. Great vid, Kenny!!
I was complaining that I was going to miss the game because of work and when I checked the scores, they were all blow out so I’m glad I didn’t watch it
Won't lie, out of my friends I was the only one that believed that the Mavs would beat the Suns in 7. Jus looking at what the Mavs were doing at the end of the season especially once they got Dinwiddie and Brunson was becoming better. It was a sad end to a series I won't lie, I didn't expect that
Same man my friends bet on the suns and I just wasn’t feeling them. Something was calling and I was like nah Mav’s winning this game. Wasn’t expecting the outcome but no one was. If they keep up that defense they can win any game
There are so many things i want to see happen, i want the warriors to win and the mavs and the suns and the bucks and celtics. i want to witness these players and their greatness but only one team can win sadly
Memphis were the best rebounding team. With Dallas nowhere in regular season as well as Postseason. I think it will be close between Warriors and Mavs, but not as lopsided as Grizz vs Warriors.
