I am honestly confused as to how Luka is the only player on the Mavericks to shoot a free throw. That's insane.

Home cooking but it’s cool refs tried and are failing

Presti has been with the Sonics/Thunder for 17 years. Do you think he would have that kind of job security elsewhere after what happened with KD/Westbrook/Harden? I'm not sure.

Huh?

Drafting three players of that caliber would afford any GM years on that team unless the owner is some deluded psycho.

They made one NBA finals and had three different players who went on to win MVP. I am not sure if they never won a title in a big market that he wouldn't have ever been on the hotseat. What GM's had that kind of longevity without a chip? I'm genuinely asking.

I don’t know.

There’s a lot of terrible GMs in this league and I can’t think of anyone else who drafted 3 MVP caliber players so I don’t think he was ever in danger of being moved on.

Injuries ruined the initial core more than anything.

You also have to remember that he quickly rebuilt things after KD left. He got Paul George, that quickly failed and he managed to turn him into an absurd haul.

I just think any GM that hits on 3 MVPs will live off that for years, even if they don’t win a title.

The OKC offense is ugly! It's basically corner 3s after corner 3s. Very little pick and roll action, very little offense at the rim. They have a 7'3" guy in discount Abe Lincoln yet they insist on sticking him into the corner shooting linedrive 3s.

That's why I laugh when ppl compare Chet to Wemby. Chet is nowhere the player Wemby is.

OKC can’t score or get stops. Bad combo

Yep. Refs don't give Mavericks any FTs but whistle everything on OKC, especially SGA.

But Mavericks are too good, even refs can't bail out OKC

[SunsLyf3]

What a choke job from Williams, Chet and Giddy. They need a 2nd star badly.

[Mamba Mentality]

Luke flew to Germany and saw Kobe’s doctor. That’s the only way to explain this performance.

[PierceFan4ever]

Luka might be the best player in the league idk

That fat dude in Denver is playing like the goat right now

[ChipotleWest]

Luka is 5-9 from 3. 12-19 overall.

I mean I don't know what to think anymore. They going to put in the other Luka in Dallas the garbage one? It seems to change each game.

[KGDirkTD_Fan]

SGA need some damn help

[Mk0]

lmao that dort flop. Just take the 3 dude. You flopped into an airball

[CelticSooner]

74 points in the 4th. Yikes

[GrandTheftRondo]

Man whenever I watched him in the reg season he was elite. Like a tier below superstar. Idk what happened to the dude but he’s mediocre

He’s in his first playoffs

Okay you’re right man. That explains everything.

What do you want me to say to that?

I just don’t know why you’re surprised.

It’s not shocking to me that a 23 year old in his second season is struggling in his first playoffs.

The playoffs constantly do it to talented young players.

[___Rand___]

This game is like a funeral.

[Champ1on]

If you call just sitting or standing around and not coaching a calm deminor then that's what Jason kidd does.

[GSP]

This is insane how many wide open 3s can a team miss in a series?
