Can’t it be everyone’s fault.

Who would've thought Kyrie and Luka's D would become so good?

They playing both ends!

Basing on that last series by Embiid and the Sixers, it's all their fault. If you create a team full of losers, you get losses.

Kyrie would’ve been an awesome wide receiver

-8 on the glass, -7 at the line, +1 turnover.

Have time to clean those up, need to do it sooner than later

prime harden broke basketball.. elite coaches like spo, mike malone and steve kerr were crying to adam silver to nerf harden. the nba didn’t even move the 3point line because of the warriors lol

How can you argue he broke basketball when he never even won a championship

Why do you even engage with NBA4Lyfe lol.

hopefully luka's knee heals up sooner rather than later. He still is showing amazing court vision but his normal offense isn't there and he is missing shots that he normally makes. Can tell he's frustrated

The only argument for "breaking basketball" is that he took ref baiting to a completely different stratosphere. Fortunately that strategy has never worked in the playoffs.

0/5 at 3pts for Luka with many open looks.....something is obviously wrong

mademan · Post #4494 » by **mademan** » Sat May 4, 2024 2:42 am

Luka looks like he's back in being able to get to any spot on the floor, but he's gotta find his shooting touch from range. Its too big a part of his game

ChipotleWest · Post #4495 » by **ChipotleWest** » Sat May 4, 2024 2:42 am

Mavs catch those really hard thrown balls. I remember back when we had stone hands Dampier who couldn't catch anything.

Luka to Kai pass can work as well for football

Yeah but now 0-5 with a turnover instead of 0-6. Got to shoot that.

No pressure on Harden he assures us.

Harden choking again as usual. Being fat and lazy isn't helping his chances.
