  1. Proof that Kyrie is a team destroyer. No way Dallas or any other team will give Kyrie a max deal or a huge contract.

  2. This trade is on the same level as harden to the nets… Useless.They don't need nobody alongside Luka. They needed Finney Smith and Dinwiddie. Their center is trash, they needed to trade for someone like gobert who can give you defence and rebounds, no points. And they need players like Bridges 3&D very good players.. Even if you have to pay them more money. Your stuck with Hardaway Kleber and other now.. The key to their succes was to keep the teams from last year and just replace the center and a couple of role players…

  3. Luka is the worse transition defender in the NBA. 50% of the time he never crosses half court as he’s complaining to the refs while the fast break is going the other way.

  4. Your 2 guards can’t be cones at the point of attack on defense. It won’t matter if the other 3 starters are all world defenders.

  5. This a trick question? Probably having one of the worst rosters in basketball plays a big role.. 🥴 weird question. Turns out selling shoes doesn’t help with roster construction in any way. Nico has proven to be entirely incompetent in every decision since getting his job. Time to be fired.

  6. This has nothing to do with Kyrie. The Mavericks doesn’t play any defense. Luka can’t guard a 3rd grader out of a paper bag. Superstars like Luka as y’all want him to be . Luka is the problem

  7. I know the Charlotte hornets not at a good team, but after the NBA All-Star Charlotte Hornets have 2 best defense in the NBA

  8. People said the same thing about the Suns defense when they made their move mid season. They have maintained a high defensive rating and the 4th seed without Bridges, Johnson and Durant. The difference is Book compared to Luka. Book is a hustler and continues to improve on his defense. He has the fire in him to be great and Luka just wants to act like a goober or whine like a brat on the court. He has been coddled and it is showing now.

  9. What's funny is DSJ was there a year before Luka. I think he avgd 15 ppg 4 rpg 5 apg, add Luka next year, cant play together bc both are best when ball dominant. So how they think Luka & Kyrie would work??

  10. This was never a championship team. They wanna get a big FA in the offseason… but idk how many players wanna go to Dallas and play with Luka. He’s amazing but it’s a Bron situation were he needs specific players to maximize Luka.

  11. The team is too small, they can't rebound and they can't defend. It's as simple as that. So it doesn't matter about Kyrie scoring 30 and Luka scoring 30. Makes no difference. That's not enough to overcome the fact that the opposing team is getting layup lines all night.

  12. Well, if I'm the MAVS, I look at who gonna be a free agent this summer. I let Kyrie & Wood walk. I look right at getting:
    Nikola Vucevic, who on a down year is avg 17 ppg 11 rpg 3 apg on 52%.
    Mo Wagner, who is avg 10 ppg 4 rpg, will give good effort all around & wont cost too much.
    RFA Coby White or trade for Cole Anthony from Magic.
    Starting lineup of:
    SG T Hardaway Jr
    PG Coby White/ Cole Anthony
    SF Luka
    PF Wagner
    C Vucevic

  13. Come on, Kyrie is a good scorer, very talented. Anytime he's on your team, & he's a first or second option, your more than likely gonna miss the playoffs. They hold this mam up to such esteem & he's failed everytime. Before LeBron & post LeBron.

  14. Joy brings me joy 😍 good lord. I don't know how you can stay focused while she talks. Voice is as beautiful as she is

  15. Luka is a ball hog and will never win until he stops dominating the ball that style never wins

  16. The main problem is not having kyrie is about the defense. They need to pick up a big men who can protect the rim or at least make it hard for players to score and wing player who can shoot and play D.
