I, for one, welcome our new space overlords.
He's the X-Factor for the wolves
Haha. I thought it was Nas Reid.

But seriously. Every great team has a great core of players who blend well together at the right time. That's why Denver lost some strength when Bruce Brown and co. left and they didn't have a bench

It's the little things. Mavs got Gafford and Washington in Jan and their defense was no 1 in the league since.

And Luka has been a pro since he was like 16 so his pro age ain't even close

yea, there's no margin for error playing Luka. you give him an inch and he's exploiting it.

he had the DPOY looking like bambi learning to walk with 3 seconds left in the game.

so yea, im looking forward to Ant becoming a more seasoned player like him :manny:

the 1 thing i don't get about these guys with a a reliable mid range ( tatum and ant ), they totally abandon that side of their game once they start hitting some 3's :manny:

ant has improved drastically with his 3 ball over the past 12 months

but there is absolutely reason with his strength/leapin ability , why he shouldnt also featuring this more in his game , and playing out of the mid , that shot is there all day for him , whetehr tis a turn around fade or otherwise ,

he has it down to a T , yeah its more work , but it makes him less predictable as well

he doesnt have to be a 3 and drive guy :sas2:- thats the 3 levels of his scoring which he should learn to involve more , as he has it in his bag

we have seen it , when he wants to utilize it :francis:

Detroit You bytch Ass nikka
Dallas has lost every game 4 (at home) in the playoffs this year. :francis:

Luka not gonna have 2 bad games in a row, he’s going for 40 on Thursday
Luka for 40 on a 100$ 3 leg parlay with something like KAT 3 3's, Ant 25+, Conley 15pts, Luka 6ast?

shyt would probably pay out like 4000$, but KAT a bytch and never hits whatever I bet for that nikka. fukk em. I'll do Naz 3 3's.

hitching his ride to a superstar for the first one, and doing it again

We've already seen what it looks like when he has to lead a team (2019 celtics). He ran away first chance he got

Kyrie been carrying the team unlike Luka who goes hot when the whole team is making plays. SMH
