Feels like Dallas fans think okc gets away with a ton, okc fans think that Dallas gets away with a ton, and unbiased fans think Dallas gets away with a ton. Hm.

Say what you want about Luka this game, but he’s going to close out this game his style and that will decide this game.

That wasn’t young Westbrook
He had 42 triple doubles in one season...
When you mention young Westbrook I’m thinking of the one that went to the finals with KD.

Too much midrange-- easier to gameplan against those kind of offensive players. To be in Steph, Luka level, he has to decide to improve (and take) that 3 pt shots or just attack all the way eveyrtime (a la Lebron, less bully ball but more wily drives).
Funny I have liked Luka more and he is playing like trash lol

I feel like you need to give Luka a tech at this point. His non stop whining is very irritating as a neutral viewer.

Fair. That is my fault. That season was like 8 years ago though so to me it was young Westbrook lol.

This is some excellent defense both ways. Wish all games are like this.
