You’re such a goat, love your show. You articulate this game so well and fluent
Great analytics on Warriors and Mavs — SC30 was so amazing..
It wasnt Draymond but kuminga that held his ground and went straight up to force Luka to miss the last shot of the game
When you were talking about AD’s physicall dominance in the paint and you compared him to Giannis. The way you said the word Giannis. Omg perfect Greek accent brother well done 😂
Was this the wrong mic
Audio sounds weird on this one
NBA officiating needs to be reinforced this offseason fr
A.D. is lost in translation & complacency limbo.
He gets fouls every time he drives, so he settles outside, he doesn't practice, he is regressing, he does not involve the team, & totally overrated & overpaid for what he delivers. He drifts & dissapears, has no killer instict, and thats with his insane amount of advantages he doesnt use, and completely disengaged & content with his role as is, which is weak & total opposition to Austin Reeves & LeBrons attitude, and this team is one locker room pariah away from winning another title – A.D. is cancer & a over hyped, overpaid, dissapointment & frankly an embarassment as a inverted Mamba Mentality, entitked, ego fallacy.
The officiating was horrendous both ways in the Mavs-Warriors game. 2 Refs were experienced and one was young in his 3rd year, and the young one was making all the questionable calls, that's a problem.
It was a big win for the Lakers and warriors and a rough loss for the mavericks and Suns this last couple of weeks are going to be vital and it is going to be huge down the stretch.🏀
Maybe a crazy take but Kuminga is the best draft pick for GS since draymond. His ceiling is HUGE. In 4 years he could be a Kawhi type player
A.d. got married had kids and got a ship. So, he takes games off now.
I definitely think JJJ can be better than Ja. Frankly, he is almost there. He is a better 3 point shooter, better defender, and also has good hops to go with all that height and length. He has a solid body and looks strong. If he really works at it he could be a lot like Giannis with better shooting. He can already block with both both hands. If he can translate that to rim finishing with both hands, he will be deadly.
Love this show. Audio needs some fine tuning.
recording from a potato
Agree with a lot of what you say, but I’m with Cuban on this. I think the protest isn’t too try and change the outcome of the game but refs have been terrible this year and this puts more spotlight on it. It’s a protest of the state of the officials.
“ Jayson Tatum does not have that creative shot making piece”
i respect you man but that is the worst take yet
no twolves talk? kat just returned too
In 2020 LeBron feed the ball to AD relentlessly
Totally agree. Loser mentality 🏀
