Noo that's what Moreyball teams want you to do. The key is to hope that Moreyball doesn't make 50% while you shoot layups all game. If they hit 50%, you lose.. simple as that.

You gotta hand it to them, they were consistent today at least.

Luka is the best offensive player in the league just slightly ahead of Jokic..also probably top2 player in the league, only Giannis is better

So he gives you a air ball 3 and then that and RJ says master piece...Suns just missed two open 3s.
Luka gotta learn how to close these games out

Insane how fast a series can change. Suns were in complete control the first two games and now the Mavericks are the ones who feel like they have control despite it being 2-2. Now Phoenix has to win Game 5 or else the series is over.

His teammates are trash. They're just being allowed to be physical while the Suns can't even look at them the wrong way. At the end of the day anybody in the NBA can hit open 3's.

Luka can post up the vast majority of perimeter defenders. Which makes all the times he just sits in one spot dribbling doing nothin to then do a late second step back 3, just so much more frustrating

Lukas 1st quarter defense won both games. Dude hasn’t played defense since. Keep it up Luka, we getting wins.

Good luck.
Cam Payne and Landry Shamet are worthless. CamJo's shot has been erratic ever since coming back from injury.

Man that Luka spin was filthy
So many people who attain the heights of power in this culture—celebrities, for instance—have to make a show of false humility and modesty, as if they got as far as they did by accident and not by ego or ambition.

Pretty spin move and scoop by Luka. Got nice and tight on his defender, good balance and positioning to get into that curl.

You say that when he just shot a air ball 3....you are definitely delusional if you think this game has Luka ahead of jokic
