Playoffs 2024 - WCF - G2 - Mavs @ Wolves (Friday., 8:30PMEST)

Can you imagine that between fat Luka period and MVP Luka period passed only 4 games?

In GB they keep calling him fat

Fat Luka destroying Nba, kinda cool.

Luka's body is an asset to his style of play imo.
He knows how to use it to shield his defender and get to where he wants.

One thing people don't talk about much is his incredible hand strength and ability to protect the ball while dribbling. The wide body combined with that ability to keep the dribble alive gives him a huge advantage. It is annoying at times to watch him dribble for 20 seconds, but it is virtually impossible for anyone at any size to guard him one on one. Dort has been maybe the best to do it so far.

You knew it would end up in a W after this.

Extremely wild pass and even wilder finish lol...

Yes but his condition a couple of years ago was too bad, he doesn't need to be fit like LeBron but even not fat like 2024 Shaq.

People don’t understand what kind of monster is he face to face, he’s huge in every way. He’s far away of normal athletic guard, he’s like some strong woodcutter from the past, impossible to defend Pg like him.

Read on Twitter

Worst free throw % in this playoffs of his career (81.6%) but he's human.

Nail-biting games aren't good for the health, man but what a feeling after

Luka's style of play should keep him in the league into his 40s like Dirk.
I remember making the same comments about Dirk's style of play because guys who's games don't require much athleticism won't have the wear and tear and their games age better.
Athleticism fades with age but Luka will always have his "fat" to help him shield defenders and protect the ball and continue with his slow motion drives to the basket

I don't want the Mavs to dick around with the Wolves in Game 3.
They need to blow them out this game to demolish any type of ability to build confidence.

Agree completely. We've seen no real lead is safe. But it's hard to beat a team like the Wolves 3 straight, so hoping we can take 1 of the next 2 at the very least.
