I was a huge AD fan when he was in college and New Orleans. The one year they gave him some bigs to run with in LA they won the chip. I love the fit for him on Dallas. And if Luka retires early like he said he would than I think it was a great trade for the mavs. Luka is awesome but I really love 2 way play
Bro I could only watch the first 2 quarters and let me just say we are a class fanbase. We didn't boo him or anything and I'm so proud cause we genuinely cheered for him and showed respect. And I was very impressed and I got goosebumps when I think he dunked or smtjg and the Rockets called Timeout and the whole arena looked like they gave him a standing ovation and I loved it cause it looked like he embraced us and the city. Also the mass reports of all Mavs fans protesting outside of the AAC were so funny to me but if I could I would. Overall I was please but he already got hurt💀 I was pleasantly surprised.
Mavs fan for life means MAVS fan for life. As much as the players mean, at the end of the day we have the best fanbase and we always got the Mavs players who are here backs.
I think the ceiling of the Mavericks is lower with Luka out. But I think the floor of the Mavericks is raised higher with AD in because playing close to the rim is always better because it's more consistently reliable than shooting the ball from 3. And AD being a strong overall rebounder will help. Controlling the rebounds controls the game
Franchise record 18 blocks in one game. This defense is insane, perimeter players can play on the ball right now knowing they have help in the paint. This team is going to be scary, AD will miss some games it’s just what it is. But he’s been healthy last two years and coming off the Olympics. After the all star break Mavs are about to go on a deep run.
Here’s how I see it, let’s say Michael Jordan is a 9/10 on offense, the only thing that stopped Jordan from being 10/10 is his 3 point shooting. Based on this criteria, Luka is an 8/10, and AD is a 7/10. Now on defense let’s look at someone like AD as 9/10, the only thing that stops him is his struggles at the 5 position. Otherwise, AD can guard 1-4 extremely well. This means Luka is probably a 4/10 defensively. This gives AD a total score of 16/20 and Luka gets a total of 12/20. When you look at their complete game this makes sense. AD gives you an overall package but Luka game seems lopsided. You saw this 4 point difference in this game and it was EXTREMELY obvious.
Jabari not being there is a big problem. Easily Houston’s best rim defender. That’s ok. AD is elite still. It’s his fragile consistency that will be the Mavs ultimate doom
Anthony Davis injury update: tightness in his “groin/quad area” and “it’s not that serious” per ESPN’s Tim MacMahon
This Dallas team is gonna be fun to watch. As a Lakers guy, I'm rooting for AD. I think Dallas is gonna be a better fit for him.
Yeah pairing Kyrie a Big and two way star is always a good fit 👍💯
Not to mention max. I didn’t know he was that good, and he’s young and can learn from kyrie.

Dallas will be dangerous if he stays healthy. Deep roster as well 💯💯

I agree of the fans at the AAC. Best chants outside were "sell the feam" and "ni-co's FAT!" Need anti-adelson chants to continue going

Look how happy Klay is to play with a dominant big man
He’s not having to stand in the corner anymore too.
this is the full AD experience, he'll get you excited with how good he is then gets injured, good thing its not that serious

Day to Dayvis is back.
Good video
AD a good fit.
This guy sounds almost disappointed that AD was awesome
I was disappointed he got hurt
He tried to come back and play. Apparently they’re saying it’s not that serious
Davis beacon great player also Max C
+3 AFTER AD went out !
Will there be a butler breakdown
Second best quarter in a game since the 90’s… crazy. Who was the only player with a better quarter 🤔 oh yes,
Our boy Luka. Fire Nico.
How many rings does Luka have though? In November when Luka was out the Mavs were 6-1 & “trade Luka” was trending on Twitter. We don’t forget.
The highlight was AD getting injured.

Pj got hurt
He gets hurt in debut? Any truth to the gambling conspiracy theory about why luka was traded?
Because he don't play any defense and he don't take care of his body
So with that combination he don't deserve over 300,000 dollar contact
Nobody is moving the 4th best market to the 40th. Lmao makes zero sense and it’s simply Luka Stan’s trying to cope.
Stopped watching Once he said lebron james is arguely the best player of all time.
Why
lol I understand such a false statement
