We simply still need more people that can put the ball on the floor and finish at the rim. Luka drags two defenders all across the paint, so on paper their whole defense is out of position, but they know the secondary wide open drive is not coming, because DFS, Bullock, Kleber, Ntilikina, Bertans cannot put it on the floor and Powell can literally do f*** all, but catch and dunk.

How he responds moving forward will really define his legacy as a player.
1.) I don't recall Dirk quitting.
2.) Luka is still a baby so it's too early for a full bearded walkabout. It's more of the Pistons kicking the shit out of Jordan moment and then him hitting the gym to fill out his body moment.

Some of you Luka haters really need to get a grip. It´s ONE game against a vastly superior higher seed, the best franchise of the last decade and you link it to the 67 wins #1 seed Mavericks losing a whole 1st round series after coming off a blown 2-0 NBA finals as the favourites.

The "Luka hater" moniker is dumb and lazy.

Yes, we also need people cutting to the basket so they don’t have to dribble, just lay it in like the Warriors are doing.

No what´s dumb and lazy is comparing one bad half in a game you are huge underdogs to a team being a huge favourite to win an NBA title and huge favourites to win a 1st round series losing both, which transpired over 10 games = 480 minutes to a 24 minute half.

Just gotta be 11 points better than them over the next 12. That’s just 0.92 points better per minute. Come on boys you can do it.

It started with the refs doing their usual…game is out of reach time to even up some calls.
That fun is over now it’s all about one quarter of balls out defense and shot making.
