That was shameful should of stuck to his guns because its time for the NBA to go green like the remainder of the world! They better not snub #7uice again!
The only reason Dallas wasn't top 3 last regular season was bc of all the injuries, particularly the month plus without Kyrie. It wasn't about not taking it seriously. The Luka criticism has also gone too far beyond the mark from everyone.
I get it why no one is picking the Heat as a dark horse. A contract year Jimmy might be a superstar in the regular season. They finally might avoid the play-in once Jimmy cared in the regular season. Bam shooting 3s moving to PF with the addition of Ware (who also can be a 3&D big). Jovic & Jaquez improvements. Full year of Rozier. Herro might be back as a 6th man with his natural role (or be traded for depth). Burks of the bench for some easy buckets. Just need to figure out the main POA/Wing defenders in the roster.
GSW getting Markkanen depends greatly on whether we want to give him a max extension. We'll see if the Jazz want Wiggins, Moody and Podz, AND whether GSW wants to part ways with Moody and Podz. If we can't get the trade done, I think Kuminga and Moody will be better than last season and impact games even more. Podz and TJD are gonna be solid again. Good luck to Klay, he's gonna be great on the next part of his journey.
Legs, it’s not that the Mavs didn’t take the start of the regular season, it’s that most their entire team expect for Luka was out. Kyrie, Lively (before they even had a backup), Kleber, Josh Green, Exum missed like 25-35 games each. Luka had to carry for 2 months averaging 37/10/11. I don’t know why folks forget to mention this. Meanwhile OKC barely suffered any injuries. That was a big reason why the seeding was what it was.
Yea it’s very annoying people don’t acknowledge that. It’s a huge reason I believe Luka was the true MVP last year. Carrying the team through those injuries is much more impressive than anything Jokic did.
@@dpendthat’s a fact that automatically made him mvp in my opinion. They don’t look at that though, just stats seeding and that’s it. Nothing else Straight trash analysis.
The Mavs are built for regular season wins: rim protection and high power offense. 2nd behind OKC is a safe bet with Luka MVP. OKC vs Mavs is going to fun to watch.
Okc will finish behind Dallas this year. Dallas will win 60+ games. Remember Dallas is young other than Kyrie and Klay. If healthy Dallas will be number 1 seed.
KDs teams have underachieved? He carried the nets a toe length away from the finals, carried young Thunder to the chip agains prime bron superteam while Westbrook put together the worst finals star performance of maybe all time, SHOULDVE won 3 chips if not for injury in GS. Suns first year was awful all around but not at the fault of his own (ironmanned it) while the roster construction was horrendous.
Yes they under achieved! His team just went out in the first round, getting swept by a young Timberwolves team. The Nets never made it past the conference finals, and only had 1 decent playoff run. Teams with KD should expect to make finals if not win the whole thing . That is the definition of under achievement
Stop going off narratives. Did you watch the 2012 finals if so Westbrook was the only other member of the Thunder who came 2 play. Where was Harden who was great vs Dallas and San Antonio? And if he didn’t need Westbrook way did he let Memphis smoke him out the next year when Westbrook was hurt
Tough is such a funny word to use. Embiid played on a torn meniscus and with Bells Pallsy. I would think you have to be a bit tough to continue playing through that
The ONLY reason that the Mavs may not have the best record in the West is because they have a lot of new wings (Klay, Grimes, Marshall) AND have existing players that need playing time to show what they can do (Hardy, O-Max, Exum). Kidd is going to want to try out different rotations to see what is going to fit best for the playoffs. The starting five (Luka, Irving, Lively, Klay, PJ) are going to average 100-105 pts a game. You have 7 potential guys off the bench every night that need to give you another 20 pts or so. Scary!
Nah! I’m a MFFL but I agree with Legs and Adam, OKC has a younger, more complete team overall. They’ll probably win more regular season games but I’m still taking Mavs over them in the playoff
And Luka has to do something with the conditioning, right? As much ball as he plays in the off-season, and with as young as he started carrying heavy loads on professional teams, he's going to break unless he works on his body.
@@bradw7811stupid take ...luka has good conditioning...he is a bulky guy in general never will be a slim guy ... he just needs to be managed better with minutes over the 82 games ..
He’d be a solid role player but they lost a top 15 player lol. And he’s not confirmed. They’ve talked about it reportedly but other teams are interested
Would we see a rematch in the Celtics & Mavericks for #NBA Finals again?! Celtics bringing back the core of their roster not sure if they are looking for a big name FA unlike the Nuggets! Mavericks got a pretty good offensive player but not sure he is half the defensive player he was in prime while OKC looking to steal the West's Thunder pun intended! Sixers fans are already claiming they have the best Trio in the league to beat the Celtics! However, they said that when they had Jimmy & Ben, then Harden now PG & Oubre added to Embiid and Maxey! The pressure is on the Sixers can they finally be the best in the East with Celtics waiting on KP to recover to win it all?!

The Miami Heat disrespect is real... Been to the Finals twice, ECF three times since Jimmy arrived. Have to surprise SOME people again!
I think my Raptors going to surprise a lot of people. I can see them being 7 /8 seed. Scottie Barnes, RJ, IQ, Yak, Gradey only played 10 gms together. I like the trade for Davion & Sasha Veskov. Olynk & Bruce Brown with those guys off the bench along with a couple of rookies they drafted is decent team. Scottie especially will shut up a lot of haters.
What about New Orleans sends Ingram to Milwaukee for Lopez? Idk if contracts match but Lopez would be perfect for Zion and Ingram gives the bucks a poor mans (with respect) Middleton. Gives them more firepower tho.
Luka is going to burn himself out if he doesn't learn how/when to rest in the offseason. I really hope he listens to the crybaby criticism, because it's bad for him and his team. My question for Dallas next year will be how they defend with Luka, Kyrie, and Klay on the floor.
Kidd has a system in place -- funnel that player to the big man. The one who goes to the bench first is match-up dependent. If it's against waterbugs (Ja, Ant, Fox), Kyrie sits down first, Grimes goes in. Against bigger teams with bigger wings (Giannis, Durant, LeBron, Shai, Tatum), Klay sits down first, Naji Marshall goes in. That's about it. As long as Luka/Kyrie/Klay can put an effort in the defensive-end, they can make it through. Now, not every team has Boston's line-up. The question is, how will they stop Luka/Kyrie/Klay on the other end in the first 10 minutes of the game. It's not like they'll play 12 whole minutes per quarter.
The Toronto Raptors are my dark horse for the Eastern Conference. Scottie Barnes, RJ Barrett, and Immanuel Quickley are going to be a great trio that fit amazingly well. I expect the remaining pieces to fall into place and, barring health, should be able to keep pace with the playoff competition in the East.
Best analysis I've seen. I agree with most, but HARD disagree on DAL. Everyone is now on the DAL wagon because their recent run, and because they added an aged HOFer. DAL might be like ATL where they made that run to the east finals, and went back to a play in team. I see Klay as a lateral move - flipping offense for defense, but being about the same team overall. They still are a team of 3 OR D guys, not 3 AND D (offense or defense). They were a 5 seed in the west where several teams underachieved, but got better, so I don't see DAL as a top 4 seed in the west. And, I don't think they have a chance to repeat their trip to the finals. Nice year, but they need more moves to actually be that good.
Luka made the WCF then 2 years later made the finals with a completely new team. As for Mavs being a 5 th seed they were like the 3rd most injured team in the league or something like that. Also Mavs got really good when Lively came back from injury and they aquired Gafford by trade. Giving them basically 48 minutes of consistent center play. Rim protection and rim running. Which obviously they'll have next season as well. So if they stay relatively healthy they'll be top 3 no issues.
Bucks as a 7th seed 😂😂😂 had giannis played they win in 5 against the Pacers the disrespect is crazy I can't wait for the season to start bucks just need to be healthy theirs no team in the east or west they can't beat if their healthy
You can't judge the Giannis and dame experiment they didn't even get a chance to play together in the playoffs when lebron and wade played together the first year they didn't gel right away they were still trying to figure out who's batman and who's Rodman kyrie and luka didn't gel together right away either it takes time especially when you have two dominant super stars who demand the ball but once they figure it out it could be poetry hopefully giannis and the bucks make people like legler and other analysts look like fools by the end of the season
@@Wilcoranking they don't need to be elevated they just won the championship in 2021 their a championship team whose battle tested, injuries have been the only thing that have kept them from winning another championship bucks just need to be healthy come playoffs
@@Jinx_Me77 Luka just hasn't shown he understands the concept of healthy rest. This is the guy that plays 3 months with a bad wrist because he won't sit out the 2 weeks to let it heal. His bad track record is getting worse.
Thunders is going to be West 1/2 seed but don't get to NBA Finals again! Knicks 2nd/3rd round & Mikal no longer Iron Man! Sixers process still don't get past the 3rd round! Cavs out in 2nd round!

Mavs flipped THJ into Klay. THJ averaged 4pts in the playoffs. Naji is bigger and may be better defender, shooter, ball handler and passer than DJJ. And Grimes can be equal to or better than Josh Green. Mavs didn’t lose anything!
@@reneewilliams5777depends on what version of Klay they get 🤷GSW wouldn’t even pay that insignificant $$ for one their legends…why is that? Lol Klay might not be as good as Dallas fans think

I can do 2 jumping jacks from the moment Kyle Anderson starts his shot to when he releases it. Probably coulda done 3 10 years ago.

The Luka criticism has also gone too far beyond the mark from everyone.
Luka is a whiny, overweight man-child who can’t defend.
I get it why no one is picking the Heat as a dark horse.
A contract year Jimmy might be a superstar in the regular season. They finally might avoid the play-in once Jimmy cared in the regular season.
Bam shooting 3s moving to PF with the addition of Ware (who also can be a 3&D big). Jovic & Jaquez improvements. Full year of Rozier.
Herro might be back as a 6th man with his natural role (or be traded for depth). Burks of the bench for some easy buckets.
Just need to figure out the main POA/Wing defenders in the roster.

Miles Bridges to the Clippers?!?!?!? Uhhhh.... breaking news?

I also asked myself that, especially because he resigned by now
I think the shooting alone that Klay gives Dallas makes them a huge threat.
The Mavs are built for regular season wins: rim protection and high power offense. 2nd behind OKC is a safe bet with Luka MVP. OKC vs Mavs is going to fun to watch.
I kept trying to wipe that bird behind Legs off my screen
I swiped at it a few times, 😅😅

The west is so stacked. I think the top 4 are locked OKC DAL DEN MIN idk what order. I got MEM as 5th. 6th I’d go suns and after that it’s a crapshoot
Pelicans will be in again
Okc will finish behind Dallas this year. Dallas will win 60+ games. Remember Dallas is young other than Kyrie and Klay. If healthy Dallas will be number 1 seed.
Dallas will be 1 and OKC 2 seed I believe
Andrew Wiggins is a contract year player. You'll see the best of him when it's time to sign another contract.
