Green/Tucker would be interesting
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

As everyone predicted before the series Andrew Wiggins has 100% neutralised Luka Doncic with both his defense and offence in this series.

Luka has his 40 but only 3 assists. That's the story.

It’s a shame that Phoenix mailed it in against the Mavs.

PHX-GS would’ve been a far better series to watch.

Not his fault though. The Mavs gave their best Bucks impression from 3 tonight.

Can't really ever respect Luka after that trash. Insufferable superstar in the making.

at defense Mavs will have to move Luka to PF. Small forwards are too quick for him.

But such a terrible defender really. He has no idea what to do there. Mavs could be better with him on bench honestly.

Jokic is better than Luka. Jokic could beat this GSW team with this Mavs roster IMO, or at least takes them to 7. That Nuggets roster without Murray/MPJ just has nothing at all, but give Jokic the likes of Brunson, Dinwiddie, Bullock, DFS, Kleber, etc. and I’m betting on him.

This is where you really feel the loss of Kawhi/PG, the Nuggets being down Murray/MPJ, the Lakers ruining their title team, etc. The West just feels weak right now.

Agree. The Warriors look like they’re doing this in second gear. I think they have a level or two to go up. Dallas is awful if those threes aren’t dropping.

All 4 teams are insufferable.
