he is the only man up there keeping it real the one on left of screen goes loud for no good reason as if the loudest man wins the argument its really irritating
@@kingcheddar5966 Yeah and you hate Joker and Luka. We all know it so don’t even try to deny it. Going to turn into a closet Celtics fan if that WCF happens 😂😂😂
@@lyndonchastain3181nah i fw both i just want other teams to make it instead of the same teams. Shai and ant haven’t got to shine yet and one of them hopefully will. And who said anything about boston? They must live in your mind
@@kingcheddar5966 Because I know damn well you and others in your community will be having a panic attack if white guys win back to back championships and Finals MVPs. It’s already bad enough that Joker has 3 of the last 4 MVPs 😂
Keyshawn Johnsons - “If OKC can figure out how to STOP Luka & Kyrie, then OKC might be able to come back”. This dude is wild, he don’t even watch basketball. 😂
the thing is luka is already slowed down bc the injury and they still losing lol it’s not just kyrie and luka who’s winning these games it’s PJ Washington, he’s dropped alot more on OKC back in his Hornets days. He already got them figured out since before the trade
Everyone uses stats like most 30 point games and steals for SGA but Luka had more rebounds, assists and points per game which are far more impactful. SGA 2 steals per game, Luka 1.4 per game. Defensive rating SGA 110 Luka 112. Luka can go off for 40 points any game. Luka is the most double teamed player in the nba. Come on, talk stats that matter. Luka had 43-44 games with 30 plus points and he was third in triple doubles. I just don’t understand the hate.
@@drk2227not racist just only likes certain players so can’t give props to the other player he doesn’t care for but it don’t matter mavs winning regardless
Ironically the only team with a main rotation player who can’t buy a drink is Dallas. Dlive is a fresh 20 even Chet is 22. SGA is older than Luka and Dort is 25.
@@kingcheddar5966 Its not about who is right or wrong in thus case. But about entertainment. Keyshawn is annoyingly booring and doesnt understand basketball. PP at least is funny and knows how to troll in a goid way. Its not about whos takes are right at the end. I cant stand Keyshawn. PP is entertaining. Thats the diff
Yeah... usually good defenders play defence without fouling sooo much is all! I think he's suited to play defence on smaller guys like Kyrie! Luka is just bigger and stronger even when hurt! And Luka can def fell Dort! Look at all the scratches, cuts, and scrapes Dort gives Luka when he isn't tripping or dragging him to the ground! @@vincente4570
Paul is the only one saving this show. Keyshawn will not be talking basketball next season (he should be fired now). Skip don’t even have many years left on this planet. Pierce will be an amazing analyst.
Mavericks still winning with LUKA shooting HORRIBLY,.410fg/.264fg3%.but still putting up 27.7pt/9.3reb/8.7asst.He's bound to snap out of it soon.Then what?
They didn’t think PJ would get another 20 and he did. Paul explained why he will continue doing it. You put his man back on PJ and stop doubling Kyrie and Luka, all of the sudden driving lanes open up and now Kyrie and Luka have open lanes to the basket. You either give PJ open shots, or you have to guard one on one. And you don’t want Kyrie defended one on one by anyone. They simply have to hope PJ misses. That’s their only shot.
@@karabomafa5609 That’s the adjustment. OKC is packing the paint and daring Dallas to shoot. This has lost them two games, and a waste of a 9 point game from Kyrie. So far, what we know in this series is OKC can’t win if Dallas hits their shots. And they can’t stop packing the paint because they have no paint protection other than Chet, who’s being dominated on the glass in the series.
So Keyshawns argument is “what if everyone on the Thunder goes off” but it’s impossible that Luka or Kyrie will do more than they’ve been doing. Hahahahaha clown
It’s like what if Luka scores 35 instead of 22 and Kyrie scored 30 instead of 22 and DJJ scores 12 instead of 3 and Gafford scores 15 instead of 8 lol it’s all what ifs
Yeah but you’re not talking about them doing something unusual, you’re talking about them just hitting their season averages. Washington is exceeding his season stats but you went from 60 points a game for the season with Luca and Kyrie to 29 points in a game that should’ve been an easy Win at home. Lucas hurt and that’s difficult for him and his status is allowing OKC to double Kyrie which makes it difficult for him. It’s a shame Dallas doesn’t have the three-point shooters that OKC does because it prevents you from doubling and leaving someone open. It’s not really a what if, it’s just a matter of what should have been. OK got incredibly lucky that Luca came into the series so has been able to dominate him it wasn’t that way during the season. But I have to give them their do, they are really good team and really fun to watch so other than darts being too physical against an injured player, I like the games and I’m OK with them moving on if they deserve it.
Congratulations to Skip for finally finding someone who understands less ball than him , And have more ignorance in him And yells more than him. Great job 🎉
@vincente4570 yea, they're leaving him opened and he's showing them not to disrespect him. It's up to them to make the adjustments, are you gonna keep giving dallas players not named kyrie and luka opened shots.
Giddy doesn't even play the 2nd half. Okc staff knows he loves it between 14-16 so that's how many minutes he plays. He don't go for anything 18 and above, minutes wise. Creep.
Skip if SGA is your MVP than he shouldn’t go 1 for 6 or have 3 turnovers in the 4th , last night Jokic the mvp he scored 16 in 4th to help his team win. Than Skip quoting SGA saying there gonna stop PJ well besides game 1 when he had 10 he’s scored 29 and 27 so they haven’t stopped him.
Key be talking crazy. Luka is an all time playoff riser, every year has averaged more points in the playoffs than regular season. 2nd in points behind MJ in the playoffs. He is obviously hurt, no way he goes from MVP year to this 😂
Key keep putting out there that Paul was a defensive player lol he was no slacker but what most people who watched basketball at the time see Paul more as a scorer and mid range offensive specialist
"If X player played differently, then what?" as if the other team only perfectly replicates the game they just played. No one player's stat line tonight will be the exact same as it was on Saturday, just like Saturday's box score looked different than two nights before that. Paul Pierce is right - all of these 'What If's are worthless compared to what's actually done on the court. "What if Giddey gives you 15?" BRO HE DIDN'T AND GOT PLAYED OFF THE COURT CAUSE HE WAS BRICKING WITHOUT ANYONE GUARDING HIM. Skip asking if Paul needs a new TV when he's clearly watching through Thunder-colored glasses. Thunder are desperate for answers and the Hack-A-Lively was the perfect example. The Coach of the Year didn't trust his defense enough to get stops in clutch time so he bet their season on whether an opponent would miss freebies and lost the bet. It's only a matter of when, not IF, the Mavs close this thing out.
Keyshawn to OKC: "If you can figure out how to stop the important shots then OKC got an opportunity and chance". OKC: "Tell us what important shots look like first please".
What's funny is they're talking about PJ scoring that much. Let's rewind to game two when PJ scored that much. Here's the fact they want PJ to shoot. And if they go to him they're finally going to open the lanes for Kyrie and Luca and the floodgates are going to open. The Thunder are going to continue doing exactly what they're doing. They're going to wait for Pj to have a bad game which he isn't showing that it's going to happen. And some people are like oh what if he stopped shooting threes well what if he actually goes to the post like he does and kills them there too. The fact is Dallas has one more piece.
Exactly you get it. It’s only making feel more better and he’ll drain those 3s like nothing. This is literally practice for him since no one is closing out and when they do close out he doesn’t care either because they’re all smaller than him (but Chet).
The issue Okc has is that both Kyrie/Luka haven't needed to go off to win. Sga has needed to score 30 just to compete.. Even if someone steps up who ever that is cant compete with Kyrie or Luka. In the 4th you can see Kyrie knows they aren't ready to guard him they have talent and are smart but Kyrie Iq alone is to much for them at this point. If Jay will scores more he's is just going to end up to tired to guard Kyrie. SGA has been playin off ball defense the entire series that why he isn't tired. The moment SGA has to guard Luka you can expect his offense will also take a hit. SGA has already not been able to score in the 4th when you get less calls. Okc has potential but this is just not their year and they should be proud of what they have done. If you listen to kyrie pre game speech Mavs are focused on winning a chip that mentality is not where Okc/Twolves are at. Kyrie/Luka are smarter then Okc players/ more focused on the goal. Mavs also know they need Luka too find rest for next round. The team literally has been benching Luka too maintain his health Okc cant just bench SGA and still win. Mavs vs Denver WCF and I think Mavs will shock the world. Mavs are also best suited to beat Celtics in finals. Celtics play a style of ball that favors Luka/Kyrie the only advantage is White/Holiday defense is elite but even with that I dont think you can stop Kyrie the way he has been playing.
Skip saying “if, if, if” and then somehow calling them facts that are set in stone. This the stuff that Shannon Sharpe wouldn’t allow. And that’s why you heard Skip getting a little defensive when Paul tried to call him out for all of the “if’s”.
As a Mavs fan, you can't take away the stamp Chet is having on this series, he is altering so many shots in the paint that Mavs regularly make. He makes me anxious looming there when Gaff and D-Live have the ball in the paint. SGA feels pretty unstoppable unless we throw desperate defense at him which is unsustainable full game so he will get his. Jdub (is that right?) is a baller but unless you have some experience in the brute and desperate battle of the playoffs, and how to kind of pace yourself through -out, he's going to disappear a bit which he seems to be doing. Edit: Why does Paul Pierce have the most sane, down to earth, considered takes? He is actually too good for this show, probably should team up with JJ.
Luka played well last match, was relatively efficient, a lot of hard and important rebounds, very very important steal and transition bucket to save the game and also he would have more points if last 5 mins of the game werent fouling derreck lively
