You forgot Exum when he comes back from injury. Exum pushes the pace, has a good baskeball IQ, shooting well from 3, and arguably their best defensive guard next to Josh Green.
That's what I'm saying. Mavs have Luka, Kyrie, THJ, Josh Green, Jaden Hardy, Dante Exum. They all pass as guards so where does Mr Shot Chucking No Defense Dinwiddie fit in all that 😂 they don't need another playmaking guard.
A lot of people took dinwiddies comments out of context tbh, he wants to re-establish his value around the league after being bought out and what place better to do it at then one of the marquee basketball cities/teams than the lakers in a spot where he is expected 15-20 mins at least a game.

Two things about the Mavs. They’ve had some key injuries lately and are just now starting to get healthy. They just made a tremendous trade to actually get a center with experience that is key in the playoffs and a wingman in PJ. That’s what they needed yet I feel like people are sleeping.

Are y’all that desperate for ratings and viewers to degrade an all-time potential great? The constant disrespect for Luka with your organization only downgrades your reputation year after year. He’s not gonna be your storyline villain. No one but you sees that in him. It’s getting foolish!
Why didn't they talk about how happy PJ Washington was when he got traded to the Dallas that he ran out of the restaurant where he was eating? Why didn't they talk about how happy gafford is to be in Dallas? Dinwiddie is a LA native ofc he wants to go back home. He also wants the opportunity to get a bag next offseason. He may be a starter with the lakers, with the mavs he is "break in case of emergency" player. And every Dallas fan knows how bad Grant Williams was for the mavs... The man had games where he had straight zeros on the stat sheet. But his comments were asking about how they played in Charlotte. Everyone takes it as a diss but what he said makes sense when you take the court with someone you never played with before. Pj and gafford said the same things about trust and moving the ball, I'm being in the right place at the right time etc...
Now he does. Dallas was not where he wanted to go originally. He was sent to Dallas not by choice. Dallas was the only team that would pay him the money he wanted too.

@@cybertutorials5609Luka is playing some amazing defense lately, you're clearly not watching mavs games also look at his defensive stats it's actually mind blowing
I think the point is he's going to wait until a contender that needs a key piece. He ain't competing in Washington, but wouldn't do a lot better in Dallas when Luka and Kyrie have to have the ball basically the whole game and are a fringe playoff team.
@@MEANDMYDAD2023 it's just not a good fit for him he actually needs to play high level defence which I don't think he is interested in,maybe he will wait for Okc or spurs to be in contenders position who already got great defenders,but he does look incredibly soft which is ok
@@tarunreddy2031 Exactly what it is. There were reports that Kuzma wanted a guarantee that he gets 20+ shots a game.... basically second option... just a delusional scrub.
@@Docrivershater Brunson started cooking with Luka before he left and they got to the WCF, if they had any interior D they would've feasted Porzingis was unserious he himself admitted it
The Mavs clearly have the best strength and conditioning trainers. According to many people they have the best arena with the most anemities. Playing with Luka, you are guaranteed to get looks you wouldn't get on any other team. They have a players coach. They are in a big city with a warm climate and lower taxes compared to other teams. I may be missing something, but what is it?
Looks like PJ and Daniel wanted to play with Luka! We got our guys! I didn't wanna give up 2 picks for Kuzma anyway lol. And Dinwiddie would've barely had a spot in Dallas with Hardy being here and Exum coming back from injury soon
I understand Spencer. There he has a real shot for playing time. But what is wrong with Kuz? Him rather want to be part of a rebuild than fighting for the playoffs is weird. Of course he would have gotten less shots. But I dont get when people dont want to compete.
It's funny these Guy keep talking about Injuries and setback but the Mavs have never been fully healthy this entire season and they are 8th, possible 7th or 6th before all star weekend, anyone watching the Mavs knows that when this team is playing at there best even when are not healthy they are a problem for any team including the best, so imagine this is a healthy team that is clicking especially now when they have resolve their weakness, thinking about it give me the chills, this team have 3 guys that can give you 30+ on any given night and 5 that can give you 20+ and 9 or 10 if you push it that can give you 15+ this is not normal.
The Luka slander is crazy lmao. Spencer went to LA because he'll get more minutes there and he's playing for his next contract and Kuzma prefers to be the #1 option on a tanking rather than be the 3rd option on a contender.
Spencer Dinwiddie got the worst fg % in the league this year at 39,1%.... just what the lakers need 🤣🤣🤣 thats why he picked the lakers... mavs hit the jackpot at the trade deadline if you ask me, thank god kuzma declined LOL
Kuzma in Washington: "I don't want to go to Dallas because I want to play for the NBA championship" hahahahahahaha I will be laughing at that comment til 2030! Is he going to play for the ring in Washington with the Wizards?
@@StonerKitchen the media is trying to take shots at luka when clearly Dinwiddie went to the lakers because that's his home town and they need him. And kuz did it mainly for his bag.
This is the dumbest take on a team that’s been playing better after the trades. Big boy just hating on Luka who arguably the best player in the league.
I like how under the radar the Pelicans are at the moment.. they have a dream run til the end of the season dont be surprised if they end up finishing top 3.
Dinwiddie wanted to play home and for a contract. Kuz is delusional about thinking the wizard will be contending any time soon. Both guys wanted to sound iconic and did so at mavericks (most importantly lukas) expense.
Jokic is 14th shooter, Den is 4th and he is leading MVP race. Luka is 1st shooter and Mavs 7th ... Better not mention Shai stats, who plays just for himself (see assists). When the Team seed became more important than how Players actually play and contribute? MVP is just a media propoaganda, clearly!
players don't wanna play for the mavs because luka is the greatest offensive player in NBA history and their intimidated playing with him. Luka controls your job on the team. If luka wants you out, you're out.
What's up with the obsession with Embiid? What has this dude ever done in his career to deserve so much credit to say if he comes back they have the best long shot to make the finals? Over Steph? Over Luka? Over Lebron? Give me a break.
Following the same reasoning that you use to exclude Luka from MVP contention, Wemby can never get the ROTY while being in the rock bottom team of the conference while Chet is in the #2 team... are those individual awards or team awards? DECIDE, but apply the same rule to both. Why this double standard?
Dinwiddie and Finney-Smith played the best basketball of their lives when Luka was getting them open shots. Then they went to Brooklyn and regressed.

Malik andrews has made this show unwatchable for me 😢
That’s can’t be her voice all day everyday
They're not even hating on Luka or talking about players avoiding him. That caption is misleading and click bait.
ESPN moves closer and closer to TMZ status each year.
Mavs casually on a 5 game winning streak btw
Doesn't seem like kyrie has a problem with luka. He resigned there, and other than injuries, he is having a great year right alongside luka
What has Embiib done in the playoffs?
Embid is allowed to play dirty. Black privilege. Let Luka play like him...lordyyy
Keep hating Luka!
They don't like talking good about Luka, cause they got to talk good about Kyrie... I don't think the media is over Kyrie yet.
Kyrie like splaying with Luka and that says a lot
Now he does. Dallas was not where he wanted to go originally. He was sent to Dallas not by choice. Dallas was the only team that would pay him the money he wanted too.
The casual racism that exists within the NBA, which never gets addressed, really makes me want to stop watching.
and they have the nerve to be patronizing and preachy while doing it too
Now you know how it feels.
@@SI-cd7xslol, your comment history shows only racial BS. Your life must be so sad
It's ok! Folks are waking up.
What happen to ESPN?
Everyone involved in this segment needs to be fired
I get Spencer not wanting to be go back to the mavs, since he already got trade from them.. but kuzma saying mavs is not a contender, while the wizard is second to last place is laughable..
What is the point of this segment? To add more disrespect to Doncic? I don't understand the point of asking this question.
I thought that was a parody account when i saw the title.
Luka is mvp and the best player in the league by a mile!! The guys gonna shatter every record out there
Gotta play defense to be the best in the league by a mile.
@@cybertutorials5609Luka is playing some amazing defense lately, you're clearly not watching mavs games also look at his defensive stats it's actually mind blowing
@@cybertutorials5609 He plays way more defense than Harden ever did
@@2nerC9 Wouldn’t say way more. It’s a similar level of effort for most of their careers.
2 way players > 1 way players
Players don't want to play with Luka Doncic = ESPN is waycist 😂😂😂
Ok, ESPN is a disgrace with this blatant Luka slander
ESPN need luka to stay relevant
No they dont, this is is like the first video about Doncic in weeks
Kuzma said that and ain’t competing for anything 🤣
I think the point is he's going to wait until a contender that needs a key piece. He ain't competing in Washington, but wouldn't do a lot better in Dallas when Luka and Kyrie have to have the ball basically the whole game and are a fringe playoff team.
@@MEANDMYDAD2023 it's just not a good fit for him he actually needs to play high level defence which I don't think he is interested in,maybe he will wait for Okc or spurs to be in contenders position who already got great defenders,but he does look incredibly soft which is ok
Kyle Kuzma is more known for his hairstyles and fashion choice, than anything basketball related
Kuzma is not a key piece for any championship team though. He's just a big fish in a small pond in Washington @@MEANDMYDAD2023
This is crazy topic considering how excited Gafford and Washington were to be traded there 😂
How i wish the Mavs shut them all up and make a huge run 🙏🏻🙏🏻
ESPN what is your issue with Luka.
Espn so trash now
The hate for ESPN and the Mavs IS CRAZY 🤦🏾♂️
Its gross how embedded sports booking has become in ESPN content. Shameful.
It’s dinwiddie and Kuz. Let’s not act like it’s real players with credibility that don’t want to got to Dallas.
One doesn't want to be the third option and other doesn't want to be the 5th option. Its not rocket science, espn really are muppets
@@tarunreddy2031 Exactly what it is. There were reports that Kuzma wanted a guarantee that he gets 20+ shots a game.... basically second option... just a delusional scrub.
Dinwiddie's best ever play and run of form came whilst playing for Dallas with Luka lol
Now what about Brunson and Porzingis? Hmmmmmm
@@Docrivershater Brunson started cooking with Luka before he left and they got to the WCF, if they had any interior D they would've feasted
Porzingis was unserious he himself admitted it
Luka is MVP and it’s not even close! He’s even better in the playoffs where as Embib disappears.
so you want to compete for a championship, by staying with the Wizards? 😂
The Mavs clearly have the best strength and conditioning trainers. According to many people they have the best arena with the most anemities. Playing with Luka, you are guaranteed to get looks you wouldn't get on any other team. They have a players coach. They are in a big city with a warm climate and lower taxes compared to other teams. I may be missing something, but what is it?
ESPN slander
Kuzma doesn’t want to win. He only wants stats and make TikTok’s
I forgot Chris Paul even played for the Warriors
ESPN's issue with European players needs to be studied.🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑
Go watch euroleague basketball then with your victimized eurotears
Looks like PJ and Daniel wanted to play with Luka! We got our guys! I didn't wanna give up 2 picks for Kuzma anyway lol. And Dinwiddie would've barely had a spot in Dallas with Hardy being here and Exum coming back from injury soon
I understand Spencer. There he has a real shot for playing time.
But what is wrong with Kuz?
Him rather want to be part of a rebuild than fighting for the playoffs is weird.
Of course he would have gotten less shots. But I dont get when people dont want to compete.
Money
The john wall and bradley beal syndrome. Sit tight, have no expectations, have stats and make money. Like jermi grant in portland as well.
It's funny these Guy keep talking about Injuries and setback but the Mavs have never been fully healthy this entire season and they are 8th, possible 7th or 6th before all star weekend, anyone watching the Mavs knows that when this team is playing at there best even when are not healthy they are a problem for any team including the best, so imagine this is a healthy team that is clicking especially now when they have resolve their weakness, thinking about it give me the chills, this team have 3 guys that can give you 30+ on any given night and 5 that can give you 20+ and 9 or 10 if you push it that can give you 15+ this is not normal.
The Luka slander is crazy lmao. Spencer went to LA because he'll get more minutes there and he's playing for his next contract and Kuzma prefers to be the #1 option on a tanking rather than be the 3rd option on a contender.
The Mavs also have a 21 year old version of Dinwiddie in Jaden Hardy!!!
This is nothing new with ESPN they hated on Kobe now they are hating on Luka
I didn't know you could compete for a championship when you are 14th in the east.
Kuz wants to focus on his tunnel fit more than the game.
Espn has a problem with the mavs lol
ESPN’s hate for European white basketball players is outrageous
ESPN hates Luka,Luka its the MVP!
Spencer Dinwiddie got the worst fg % in the league this year at 39,1%.... just what the lakers need 🤣🤣🤣 thats why he picked the lakers... mavs hit the jackpot at the trade deadline if you ask me, thank god kuzma declined LOL
ESPN needs a reality check. Luka is MVP. Haters gonna hate.
Kuzma in Washington: "I don't want to go to Dallas because I want to play for the NBA championship" hahahahahahaha I will be laughing at that comment til 2030! Is he going to play for the ring in Washington with the Wizards?
Wasn’t Kyrie a free agent this offseason? And he choose to resign with the Mavs with Luka being already there
Thank You Richard for being the common sense person.
The Mavericks timeline to a championship is further than the Wizards? Lol 😂
They also had beef with jokic then jokic won all
This should be reported to RUclips as spam or misleading. Get outta here ESPN.
Luka will never win MVP the media hates him
if its the media, why did SD and kuz not want to go there?? i guess they are the media too huh
@@StonerKitchen the media is trying to take shots at luka when clearly Dinwiddie went to the lakers because that's his home town and they need him. And kuz did it mainly for his bag.
Luka doesn’t play any defense that’s why
@@DonieCaldwell-x2p You don't watch basketball
@@DonieCaldwell-x2p Luka is top 10 in ISO and top 1 in post lol...
There are a lot of people on ESPN that have no business talking basketball.
This is the dumbest take on a team that’s been playing better after the trades. Big boy just hating on Luka who arguably the best player in the league.
I like how under the radar the Pelicans are at the moment.. they have a dream run til the end of the season dont be surprised if they end up finishing top 3.
Dinwiddie wanted to play home and for a contract. Kuz is delusional about thinking the wizard will be contending any time soon. Both guys wanted to sound iconic and did so at mavericks (most importantly lukas) expense.
Jokic is 14th shooter, Den is 4th and he is leading MVP race. Luka is 1st shooter and Mavs 7th ... Better not mention Shai stats, who plays just for himself (see assists). When the Team seed became more important than how Players actually play and contribute? MVP is just a media propoaganda, clearly!
We’re taking about a dude just got traded, and then buyout , and he had two teams that want him , stop it, but he play his best games with Mavs ok
Does ESPN even bother listening to what everyone is saying in the comments? Put some respect on the Mavericks
We get it Windy. You have an agenda against Luka.
players don't wanna play for the mavs because luka is the greatest offensive player in NBA history and their intimidated playing with him. Luka controls your job on the team. If luka wants you out, you're out.
ESPN Problem = Doncic , Giannis , Jokic , Sabonis , Wemby 😂😂!
NBA need Luka Doncic because the Basketball World like Doncic
NBA is fine without luka lol.
OFCOURSE EassPN would choose to do this INSTEAD of ALL the great things of Luka and Mavs...
Wow the shoutouts to sports betting at the beginning of this segment is freaking wild ESPN bets FOH.
could not be happier that Kuzma is not in dallas right now. or dinwidie, the new additions are waaaaaay better.
Whats going on in Dallas is the equivalent of what Lebron's career would have been if he played in the West his first time in Cleveland
What's up with the obsession with Embiid? What has this dude ever done in his career to deserve so much credit to say if he comes back they have the best long shot to make the finals? Over Steph? Over Luka? Over Lebron? Give me a break.
Embiid will never not be injured
Espn were the biggest Luka HATERS SINCE DAY 1
So the Warriors have a better shot than the Lakers..? Stop it. Especially if we’re gonna play the game of “ifs” Lakers have a WAY better “if roster”
Both the Lakers and Warriors are 🗑️
Following the same reasoning that you use to exclude Luka from MVP contention, Wemby can never get the ROTY while being in the rock bottom team of the conference while Chet is in the #2 team... are those individual awards or team awards? DECIDE, but apply the same rule to both.
Why this double standard?
