  • I love the Klay move, but people are sleeping on that Naji Marshall, and Quentin Grimes' move that was tremendous because those two guys play crazy defense, make shots, and they can play make here and there.
  • bringing up luka definsively as the reason they lost is laughable. Held boston to the lowest offensive rating of the whole playoffs at 112... they just couldn't score more. 17% from deep from the starters
  • @lidii3773
    lol Lukas been killing folks for 4 years and now Boston has the “blueprint” on how to stop him 😂
  • @user-EB2016
    Am I the only one who hates how Shady says "series" 😂
  • I love the fact the National media calls 29,8,6 on 47% FG a “fall off” for Luka it proves to me these people will keep doubting him and his greatness and that they can’t admit they were completely wrong about him from before he got drafted all the way up to now. Also Luka played the entire playoffs at maybe 60-65% healthy.
  • @qbtc
    They talking like it's Klay Thompson from 2018. That version of him would've been re-signed by the Warriors.
  • @djkido316
    Picking OKC and Wolves over Mavs got not only smoked them 4-2 and 4-1 last playoffs but also got better with Klay & Naji is crazy lol.
  • There was definitely a time when Klay was the best 2 guard in the game for years.
  • It’s not Klay that makes them favorites is Nhaji who’s also shooting 38% from three on low volume who can guard Tatum and Shai shid anyone, with a wingspan of 7.1 who’s 6’7 with fast hands and busy hands. Then it’s quiten grimes who’s also 6’7 who can guard and shoot 3’s point blank that’s what could make them a favorite their team is deep af.

    My Mavs literally made the Finals without Klay, this only improved us. All Klay has to do is find an open spot off the screen. Easy money. Teams will be too focused on Kyrie and Doncic.
  • @chao4869
    No clue what slick is talking about at 5:28. When did Luka fall off?? The Luka I watched carried a team of very mid role players to the finals. Luka and kai created countless open shots for their teammates and they missed very frequently. No one preformed more dominantly than Luka this playoffs. Bro has 0 clue what he's talking about
  • Shady is looking like a man who is thinking about what is to his left.
  • @Kingkofi23
    The unpopular moves are what make them favorites. They needed defense and they just got that with the other two additions.
  • @omarh007
    Lively is 20 years old. PJ and Gaff played their first meaningful basketball games of their careers, and only played 40 games with the team! Rick is nuts picking the wolves over the mavs
  • Klay actually hovered between 40-43 percent all year. He was not the worst defender for the Warriors. This thisDMBFK even watch the game??? These guys should be fired when they say stpfsht like that.
