If the Mavericks win a championship. I want Stephen A to get on national television and apologize to Kyrie Irving and Luka doncic for all the slander over the years.
Luka, yes. Kyrie? Other than saying he should retire, no. SAS has made some dumb takes. But his issue with KAI was never about who he was off the court. SAS always had issue with how KAI kept finding reasons not to play given his talent level.
To be fair, Kyrie and Luka deserve the criticisms they have gotten over the years. Kyrie has been a below average teammate and Luka has just flat out not even tried on the defensive end at times. They can prove everyone wrong if they win a title, but that is still a long way to go.
You seriously believe the NBA will let Kyrie win another chip? They showed their hand already when they were willing to suspend him and have him sit in meetings over a tweet. Do not think the league higher-ups forgot for a second.
@@professorsuge yeah I've question that as well. But I think he really is because of his inefficient step backs. I mean, Luka had a 70+pt away game in the season and now he barely reaches 40pts. If Luka is 100% I would bet all my money that Dallas would get this chip, especially with Kyrie hooping like that
@@professorsugeThere is a HUGE difference between between constantly getting hurt and being injured in the play offs and not taking the couple of weeks off that you need to heal, or even an extra day, he's taking zero games off. Those injuries aren't capable of healing right now because he can't sit. He is constantly aggravating those injuries.
I always learn new and insightful things from Legler’s analysis. Thank you, Tim, for elevating conversations and teaching audiences instead of providing the vapid drivel that most “analysts” on ALL shows offer.
I’m a Mavs fan but I’m going to say that they are taking the Anthony and Kyrie thing way too overboard. He didn’t call out Kyrie. He said that his assignment was going to be Kyrie. There’s was nothing wrong with what he said. He didn’t say he was going to lock him down or anything. There’s a difference.
"I’m a Mavs but I’m going to say that are taking the Anthony and Kyrie thing way too overboard." Ant didn't call out Kyrie at all. ESPN fabricated the story completely.
He said that because Kyrie was acting like he didn’t want to play basketball anymore and he cared more about being an activist than a basketball player. Stephen a always called Kyrie box office but he was just mad because he didn’t want to play
@@micah4494no, it was because Kyrie challenged the elites who run your country. They were forcing people to blindly take the vaccine, and when someone of Kyrie's stature said nope, that's when they and their puppets in the media wanted to cancel him. They tried doing the same with Novak, he was vilified because he refused to get vaccinated.
Dallas was playing with ANT last night..Luka actually waited til Edwards was closer to him and hit the clutch 3-point shot in his face..that was ICE 🧊 🥶 COLD...
@@nooones3033 Research the odds of series win after losing Game 1 at home, and then Game 2. Mavs may have exposed something toward end, and they are hunting the kill.
Nah, poking bears is what we do now. Ant never does it maliciously like a Dillon Brooks. Joyful trash talk is just part of his personality and it's good for the league to finally get some of that back. And if it makes Kyrie play even better then that's also great for the league.
Ant simply said that Kyrie was his matchup. THATS IT. Media and fans are making it bigger than it actually is. Kyrie said he respects Ant for being fearless.
@@ItsKillaBouie nah, I’m specifically talking about when ant was switched onto Luka for several possessions It’ll be free points for Luka if they switch the primary guarding assignments
I like how ESPN (Stephen A. mostly) Is so carefull not to mention or praise Luka in any way whatsoever when he's clealry the best player in the series. Why not give him the same praise as Ant? Dosen't fit the agenda?
Its pretty obvious that ESPN and sometimes FS1 are against giving international players credit. All of the Jokic praise last year felt forced and they didn’t actually feel excited to cover Jokic’s MVP championship season, Kendrick Perkins slipped up and accidentally showed that when he claimed the MVP voters were racist 😂
Exactly … talking all that mess about Covid-19 protocols and how he shouldn’t even stay in the league at that time… every single day they contradict themselves or rebuttal what they said prior smh
He NEVER questioned his talent or skill. He always gave him his props. His point was that he was always a distraction off the court. Ya’ll complain about the media and their “false narratives” but have no issue with saying things that aren’t true.
Because Kyrie was choking in the playoffs and was randomly disappearing from the team, endorsing antisemitism and was preaching COVID conspiracies. People's opinions about you are typically based on the person's actions
Coming from a Mavs fan and Dallas native. Ant didn’t say “I got Kyrie 😈” 💀💀💀 Ant came at in a respectful way giving his respect to Kyrie. Both great players, and it’s only game 1. Long way to go.
Legler called it BEFORE the game.. the difference between someone like McDaniels and someone like Dort, in regards to guarding Luka. And we’ve all seen it last night…
Kyrie carried the Mavs in the 1st half but shout out to Luka for closing the deal in the 4th qtr both offensively and defensively with those stops. This is going to be one helluva series
These idiots shove a narrative down peoples throats and think that we are fools that will follow along. I like ant but hes far from earning face of the league.
I mean he’s not top 8 but the people who are top 8 probably don’t have the charisma and character to carry the league . I mean I like jokic but he don’t even care about basketball fr . Ant kinda draws fans to him just off what he does off the court . That means a lot when determining face of the league
These Ant nuthuggers says there's nothing wrong with it. You don't mention someone specifically for no reason. Ant made a subtle call out and he got cooked. LOL
I think minnesota will win this series but with all due respect, jamal murray isnt even in the same stratosphere as ky or luka so minnesota really has their hands full rn
Bruh everyone loves kyrie when he is playing ball, he got some hate due to his own actions in the past but thankfully he is back to the superstar kyrie Irving.
These guys just put together one of the greatest breakdowns I have seen of a game in a long time. Beautiful takes from all three, insightful, and hitting all the right points!
AE looked tired in late 2nd half of the game. I'm surprised AE didn't call for the switch and get the Kyrie match-up on the offensive end. Kyrie got to conserve some energy not playing defense on AE.
People don't want to hear this but suddenly Anthony Edwards has become the most overrated player in the league. That's not to say he's not good & we don't love him, we do.......but the best player in this series is Luka by a large margin. It's debatable if Ant can match Kyrie.
Blame Stephen A for that...Ant man was on chill now it went to his head callin him like MJ...I like Ant but please give him more time...Mavs in 6 baby been ridin with them since the playoffs started
they're so desperate for an american player to step up to the level of foreign players, that they started pushing him as the "face of the league" when he's not even a top 5 player yet
Bro Ant deserves to be in that conversation for sure look at his playoffs highlights from last year they didn’t have Kat or Mc Daniel’s and he was still cooking and still talking that talk, keep sleepin on him if you want to.
@@Theversafire Jokic, Luka, Giannis, SGA, Embiid, Tatum, KD, Curry, Lebron, are all better players than Antman right now. Maybe you can slide him in at #10 over guys like Anthony Davis or Kawhi Lenard if you wanna be a bit spicy but no Ant is not even close to that top 5. Give him like 2-3 years and then maybe he'll be at that level.
"My matchup is gonna be Kyrie should be fun see what I can do" I love how media flips ur words he never called out anyone just said should b a fun match up and it is
Based on a report, that isn't even true. The interviewer asked Ant, if he's going to guard Kyrie. Ant responded with a yes. The whole call-out story is made up by ESPN.
Anytime the media starts comparing someone to MJ or calling some one MJ's son, it never works out 😂. Jimmy Butler has taken 2 L's in the finals since that comparison
not just that imagine if you were a hooper and people comparing you to the GOAT it would go to your head at time this is no different he only 22 i heard perk compare him to 88-89 MJ that MJ won DPOY & MVP in the same year like you cant be serious enough is enough already Kyrie about to do some humbling
This is the definition of taking something and running with it. Yall act like ant said something disrespectful. All he said was he would be guarding him and it’ll be a Great matchup
You know good and well when he say " I got Kyrie" that means he felt he was going to contain him to a degree which didn't happen, they said during the season Kyrie scored 35 with AE guarding him.
@@josiahmitchell8594 he also said he wanted to test himself and he did the same thing to Murray last serious using the game when Murray asked him "you got me?"
Based on the video i seen it wasnt a “call out” , bro just said it would be fun to play against bro to see what he could do . Media be running with the headlines 😂😂😂
He talks a lot for someone that’s inconsistent. He’s had several stinkers where he shoots under 35% from the field during the playoffs. Plus he has 2 All stars on the team a DPOY, and a 6MOY but everyone acts like he’s playing on his own
It’s crazy how they reference Dort and say he guarded Luka amazing when he still did his thing. Then turn around and say that Minnesota has better defenders yet he was still doing his thing.
Oh yeah it was a bad move because Kyrie responded and he didn't show up at a high level but let's not change the narrative when Ant takes over,with that being said Kyrie is a true Vet and that's how you set the tone early and let everyone know including the Future superstar😊
Emphasis on future superstar. Media is setting Antman up to fail by comparing him to MJ. They just want a black man to be the face of the League so bad. He's not there yet, and tbh I don't see him being better than Jokic, Luka or Giannis in the next ~7 years regardless. By that point we'll have Wemby and who knows who else stepping up to try claim the #1 spot.
I think this is what kyrie was saying on that podcast where he said he and bron coulda won more chips but he wasn’t at a place maturity and mentality wise I think his slight decline was him not realizing how great he truly was and now he’s starting to fully embrace the fact that HE IS HIM ( if so chooses to be)
Kyrie is transcending. Lu-Ky are dominating. PJ, Gafford, Lively, Jones, and Exum are syncing and rising. Pure class and a pleasure to watch. After only 5 months together, the timing couldn't be better.
Anthony Edwards is starting to believe the hype the media has given him. The NBA desperately wants him to be the next mega-star of the league. He has the potential to do it, but he still has some consistency issues
Defensively the Mavs did to the Wolves, what the Wolves did to the Nuggets in game7, in that they closed off the lane. It will be interesting to see the adjustments for game 2, and especially when they have a break between game 2 and 3.
@@nooones3033 I never said wolves weren’t gonna win for one and two if you think because I’ve enjoyed Kyrie since day one. (Cavs fan) makes me a casual fan is crazy. I honestly think it goes 6-7 games ain’t no way wolves go 4 straight against them in my opinion but ay you have your opinion you too.
Ant is a great young player but the media crowning him after the first 2 rounds this playoffs season is ridiculous! He's got so much to learn and earn before anyone should crown him anything. He stands around too much without the ball, he dribbles too much, he makes too many bad turnovers and doesn't give full defensive effort throughout the possessions. In today's NBA, he has been fun to watch but he has so much work to do in order to get better.
When SA predicted a Timberwolves win before the game, I knew that Dallas would win this game. The lesson here is to listen to loozer and do the opposite.
Only 6 of Kyrie’s 30 points were on Ant. They weren’t doubling Ant, he was too passive. Ant will be more aggressive in game 2 and if everyone else feeds off that energy they’ll win game 2.
I gotta say Tim Legler knows basketball because I was saying the same exact thing about how Dort played great defense on Luka and that Minnesota's guard are now strong or big enough
Tim Legler is the only one who watches these games and actually analyze them with a good sense of the game. ESPN needs to give him a raise.
Jj tried but they yelled at him and told him no one wants to hear that
I agree and he always talk about the fact not just blaming or talk down on some one.
Because he study the game not S A
Right on time Luka beat smaller guard any day okc game Dort hit him good
Yep. At 11:00, Stephen A says Ant should be on Luka. Like he didn’t watch Luka cook Ant one on one several times!

He talks a lot for someone that’s inconsistent. He’s had several stinkers where he shoots under 35% from the field during the playoffs. Plus he has 2 All stars on the team a DPOY, and a 6MOY but everyone acts like he’s playing on his own
It’s crazy how they reference Dort and say he guarded Luka amazing when he still did his thing. Then turn around and say that Minnesota has better defenders yet he was still doing his thing.
Ant - age 22 (the next MJ) playoff games scoring less than 20: 7
Jordan - playoff games scoring less than 20: 6
He didn't ask to be compared..
@@adeona5202that part
Jordan - 6 rings, 6-0 in Finals
Ant- TBD
@@adeona5202he does a lot of trash talking though lol.
@@jaydot4956 The series just started.. Let's see..
Imagine the feeling of watching the televised game at home with your family and you get called out. Badass
I thought SGA was the "face of the league " last week?
Let’s Go Ky!!
Mann I really love seeing Ky having fun and loving playing basketball!!
And Mann what a leader!!
Go Mavs!
These ANT banwagoners got crushed today😂
It’s just game 1 and they only beat them by 3 points… chill out.
@@micah4494He was bad in game 7 too, stop making excuses clown
@@micah4494it’s not just one game, it’s a pattern. Ant has been inconsistent for most of the playoffs.
The excuse today is that “he was tired”
God forbid any player ever made an excuse like that, they would kill him
@@jaydot4956according to?...
No it was not a bad move. It shows his confidence in himself and respect for the caliber of player Kyrie is.
Oh yeah it was a bad move because Kyrie responded and he didn't show up at a high level but let's not change the narrative when Ant takes over,with that being said Kyrie is a true Vet and that's how you set the tone early and let everyone know including the Future superstar😊
Emphasis on future superstar. Media is setting Antman up to fail by comparing him to MJ. They just want a black man to be the face of the League so bad. He's not there yet, and tbh I don't see him being better than Jokic, Luka or Giannis in the next ~7 years regardless. By that point we'll have Wemby and who knows who else stepping up to try claim the #1 spot.
As a Luca/Kyrie supporter, I can say that ANT and his crew were two baskets away from the win. This is going to be a tough matchup for my Mavs.
NO MORE KYIRE SLANDER WILL BE TOLERATED!!!
Hold up. Did ANYONE notice how Minnesota played? They weren’t the same aggressive team that played Denver. Game 2 would be a better judge. IMO
These pundits are setting Ant up for the criticism LeBron has gotten over the years because of their premature hype.
he brought it upon himself, if u gonna talk make sure to back it up
@@ianmbanda3196but not the MJ comparison. He specifically said he wanted that to stop
@@ianmbanda3196what did he say about Kyrie?
@@hermonymusofsparta i mean him calling out Kyrie
@@ianmbanda3196 he said he was his matchup which is true and not the same as a call out
Where did he call him out?? All I saw was him saying that's his match up and he going to see what he can do vs him. He said something else???
Sometimes you just need to say we got to play the next team. Don't say anybody's name. So people don't look for that match up. It's a semi call out
I think this is what kyrie was saying on that podcast where he said he and bron coulda won more chips but he wasn’t at a place maturity and mentality wise I think his slight decline was him not realizing how great he truly was and now he’s starting to fully embrace the fact that HE IS HIM ( if so chooses to be)
Yes!!!!
Kyrie is transcending. Lu-Ky are dominating. PJ, Gafford, Lively, Jones, and Exum are syncing and rising. Pure class and a pleasure to watch. After only 5 months together, the timing couldn't be better.
Anthony Edwards is starting to believe the hype the media has given him. The NBA desperately wants him to be the next mega-star of the league. He has the potential to do it, but he still has some consistency issues
He’s only 22 but he’ll bounce back next game
He's due to be humbled
Yeah right consistency issues, like your perspective about Antman and the media.
@@nooones3033chill bro.
He didn’t insult Ant lol
Defensively the Mavs did to the Wolves, what the Wolves did to the Nuggets in game7, in that they closed off the lane.
It will be interesting to see the adjustments for game 2, and especially when they have a break between game 2 and 3.
I’m never gonna get sick of watching Kyrie playing it’s honestly a work of art ❤
I hope this age like a fine wine when Timberwolves wins in 5. Some people are just casual basketball fans and have no idea about the game.
@@nooones3033 I never said wolves weren’t gonna win for one and two if you think because I’ve enjoyed Kyrie since day one. (Cavs fan) makes me a casual fan is crazy.
I honestly think it goes 6-7 games ain’t no way wolves go 4 straight against them in my opinion but ay you have your opinion you too.
@@nooones3033 so wolves in five still? lol whose the casual fan now. Aged like fine wine indeed my friend
Ant is a great young player but the media crowning him after the first 2 rounds this playoffs season is ridiculous! He's got so much to learn and earn before anyone should crown him anything. He stands around too much without the ball, he dribbles too much, he makes too many bad turnovers and doesn't give full defensive effort throughout the possessions. In today's NBA, he has been fun to watch but he has so much work to do in order to get better.
Kyrie Irving can go into uncle drew mode whenever he want to.
Wolves lost by 3 in a close game to the end. Making it sound like lost by 40
It’s one game
Let the games begin
When SA predicted a Timberwolves win before the game, I knew that Dallas would win this game. The lesson here is to listen to loozer and do the opposite.
Wait a minute….didn’t they praise Ant for calling out Kyrie. Now they saying he shouldn’t have done it 🧐
Bro ant didn't even say anything offensive or bad yall doing too much tbh😂
I'm still confused to why Kyrie is not on the top 75 list! Wild
he declined the experimental gene therapy
This is coming from the dude that wanted Kyrie to retire, what a clown 🤡🤡🤡🤡
Ant didnt call him out... He just said he was ready to accept the challenge
Only 6 of Kyrie’s 30 points were on Ant. They weren’t doubling Ant, he was too passive. Ant will be more aggressive in game 2 and if everyone else feeds off that energy they’ll win game 2.
Ant was primary defender on Kyrie for 6 attempts in the game. Kyrie scored 5/6 FG with Ant guarding him.
They loss by 3 points. Y'all acting like they got blown out. Kyrie had 30 pts (nice) but y'all act like he put up 60pts.
Can we stop with this face of the league nonsense?
It’s literally so pointless.
Jj Reddick said it best, stop trying to crown ppl and just let it happen naturally,to whomever that might be
@@MrVenom973 I agree because different teams winning the Chips... haven't been a back to back in while
NBA Finals
Luka vs Porzingis
Kyrie vs Tatum
Will love to see that :D
“Luker” lol
who tf is Luker like bro c'mon 😂
Dallas used the same playbook that Minnesota used on the Nuggets. Pack and paint and dare them to shoot 3's.
Whoever wins this series wins the chip
I think anybody playing in finals has a chance.
Stephen A talked so much nonsense about Kyrie. I need that apology to be louder than the negativity
Stephen A was saying Kyrie should retire a few months ago...Now he's gagging on it...
What a clown. 🤡
Timberwolves in 5. Let’s see if the clown is on tv or in RUclips.
I love Tim Legler man. His analysis is on point.
Antman gonna respond in Game 2
I gotta say Tim Legler knows basketball because I was saying the same exact thing about how Dort played great defense on Luka and that Minnesota's guard are now strong or big enough
For folks who talk about racism in every second sentence that they utter, they do find it difficult to praise someone who is not a Brother.
Greatest finishers period
