I don't get why Kidd plays Maxi after all the upgrades they've made.

I still dont think we’ve seen peak Luka. One of these years he’s going to take the off-season really seriously Kobe/MJ style and that would be something to see

Forget offseason, we've got to see him take his in season fitness seriously. How tf does a guy put on a bunch of weight throughout the course of a season?

I want to know which teammates taught Luka how to cuss in English, need details

[Zeno]

I think he’d extremely wrong if he says that as on the defensive end it is not close and I think Lebron even had the edge offensively.

I give Luka the edge on offense tbh. Better scorer/shooter, better pick and roll player, just as good of a passer. But you're right in terms of defense at least for a stretch there, it's not close.

yeah offensively luka has an advantage but lebron is just a physical monster.

But that is why I give Lebron the advantage on offence too despite not being the same level of shooter. He had a shaq like element to his game

Luka ended it in the first.

I don't recall a player other than Kobe that could end games with first quarter heaters.

Seen Luka do it a lot.

Steph Curry?

Move over Jokic, Luka's become my favourite player now lol

[Najeem27]

How tf is Gobert always defensive player of the year??? He’s garbage

[LaLover11]

Gobert can't even jump for a Lob
Trade him for Capela lmao

I think Jrue/Tatum/Brown/White are going to make Luka’s life a living hell in the Finals. Irving too. Holiday’s offense can be iffy but defensively he’s a beast.

I think that's what's going to be interesting - Celtics have the personnel to defend Luka and Kyrie. Mavs have advantage in their centers because Horford is old and short and who knows what shape KP will be in. Mavswill have to count on them to get the offensive boards for more shots in order to win here.

I hope this is a joke. The Timberwolves were a better defense all year and have several high-level perimeter defenders. The Celtics are not gonna be able to show Luka anything different

I hope this is a joke. McDaniels doesn't have the size nor strength to defend Luka as we saw ALL SERIES. Ant was too small for Luka but too big for Kyrie who was too quick for him and left him gassed - as we saw ALL SERIES. Tatum or Brown have the size length and strength to do a better job on Luka one on one. Holiday and White will be better matchups for Kyrie. Celtics will have a problem with the quicker taller front court of Dallas vs. Theirs.

I'll start making the noise in my head every time he winds up.

Also out loud.

[Yuri36]

big respect to Ant, he is really doing everything to push a hope of comeback for Minny

[Reeko]

This will forever be known as the "Who's crying ****!?" game.

Savage.

Snoop laughing is the Best reaction...kind of get the feeling he respects Luka

I don't get why Kidd plays Maxi after all the upgrades they've made.

You probably would have said the same thing about second year guard Jaden Hardy and yet he has rewarded Kidd's faith with solid play in his bench minutes. This is only Kleber's second game back from injury and Kidd probably feels he may need him some in the next series. I think we should stop doubting what he's doing as a coach. It's working.

Hopefully Luka doesnt spend the entire week off drinking beers. A week off will be good for him Maxi and Lively
