The Mavs already had an off-game in game 1.
We swept the Suns and won consecutive games against Denver.
All we do is streak.
Exactly, being "streaky" is inconsistent.
You are relying on another streak to get you out of trouble.

No disrespect to Nori, but he realized some things and he couldn't wait for Micah to make his presence felt. It really would have been interesting to see him coach from the sideline these last two rounds than what he's been forced to do due to the injury.

It's actually a lot like the Denver - Lakers series. Almost identical

An important qualification.
Everyone focuses on the vets Conley (36), Gobert (31), Anderson (30) and Towns (28) and assumes that Minnesota is this aging team with no path to improve, but the other half of that 8-man rotation is Edwards (22), McDaniels (23), Reid (24) and Alexander-Walker (25). Anderson is the only one of the eight not currently locked into a contract for next season. If they want to, they could easily run it back.
It's really not all that different from the 2019-20 Nuggets. Their 8-man playoff rotation balanced veterans Millsap (34), Plumlee (29), Craig (29) with younger players Murray (22), Porter (21), Jokic (24), Morris (24) and Grant (25).
First round: Down 3-1 to Jazz, won in 7 games
Semifinals: Down 3-1 to Clippers, won in 7 games
Finals: Lost in 5 to Lakers
Were they dumb to not blow it up because they were so streaky in their first WCF run as a group?

We all need to come together as a country today and rally around the little Mavs.
Plus Luka and Kyrie both strike me as the kind of guys who would rather eliminate you in your barn than celebrate with their own fans. Waving goodbye to Alex on his way out.

He’s not good enough to have a legacy man. That only applies to tier 1 players

But but Luka is the biggest crybaby on the court blablabla. Guess he forgot Gobert is on his own team
