I'm grateful to play the Timberwolves partly because Anthony Edwards is more fun to watch than Nikola Jokic. I'm tired of watching Jokic look like a grown man playing against 5th-graders.
The team that shoots better from 3 will win this series. We beat OKC because PJ and DJJ shot well from 3. The Nuggets lost their series because of subpar 3-point shooting.
Luka is the best player remaining in the playoffs and gets the opportunity to change the national perception of him. If he complains a lot, he'll be every non-Mavs fan's least favorite player in the NBA. If he plays hard, smiles and enjoys the games, he'll win over a lot of general NBA fans and media types. The NBA will recognize his appeal and he'll actually get better calls going forward. Luka can be the league's next Lebron/Kobe level of NBA superstar celebrity. This is his chance.
