- The Mavs just stole home court advantage from the Wolves, and the key was none other than the historic 1-2 punch of Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving.

Luka and kyrie are on a mission this year
SEVEN MORE DUBS TO GO YES SIR
still got boston if they win so they prob getting 2nd and next wont make all the way

Not just this year Luka mad he didn't win the MVP. Watch what they do next year after winning this ring. Lively and PJ Washington isn't going anywhere
I was skeptical about Kyrie and Luka at first until they got Gafford and Washington. It wasn't because I didn't like Kyrie. Kyrie is such a talent. It was because the Mavs needed post size and wing defense. Once they got that --- it freed up Luka and Kyrie. You essentially got 3 top-tier defensive players backing up two Hall of Famers. It is such a great situation. It is truly a team effort.
I love this squad!
I do too. I really mean that. It is constructed so well and you have a HOF player as a coach who is calm. This squad reminds me of those Hollywood movies about basketball teams coming together. @@HoopVenue
i think lively deserve more credit than gafford , in fact lively deserve to be started instead of gafford
I love Lively. I was just speaking about the starting 5, but yes, Lively is the same. I like this entire Mavs team from top to bottom.@@lakai87373
Same and Derrick Jones Jr + Lively have been pleasant surprises as well. Nobody had them being this impactful this year so they deserve props too. These four create such a great frontcourt rotation with Luka. Luka and Kyrie might be proving that they are the next great duo right now from MJ-Pippen to Shaq-Kobe to Lebron-Wade to Steph-KD. I didnt include lebron-kyrie cause they only got one chip together, but man if Kyrie had stuck it out with Bron and weathered the GSW storm together...At the end of the day, this is down to having a focused and motivated Kyrie and a defensively engaged Luka. We knew they'd score with the best of them but we were skeptical of their ability to defend. Well, they filled this roster out with the perfect supporting cast for their offensive skillsets and defensive limitations. There's no way we could have known this past offseason what this team could be, if they win a title then those mid-season trades have to be considered the best in-season trades for a championship winning team in 20 years since the Rasheed Wallace to Detroit trade in 04.
Luka and Kyrie are true underdogs of modern NBA.
I love this dogs.
And also they are playing defence.
Those who choose when to play defense shouldn’t get flowers. Those who always play defense should.
@@thedotmandoob how about "those who can play defense should get their flowers when they show it"
@@thedotmandoob those who choose when to play offense shouldn't get flowers. Those who always play offense should.
@@thedotmandoobIf the mavs Go through the Playoffs, being a contender now and maybe win it... How IS it a mistaken If you do Not give full effort in defense in regular while giving so much Energy on offense. And Just watch after trade Deadline mavs defense stats. Not possible with two Guys WHO do often Not defend
at the end of the day those who win get flowers
Ant, Mcdaniels and NAW realizes that Luka isn't Jamal Murray
I love how in addition to elite offense, Kyrie and Luka have stepped up massively on defense. Luka especially has been able to defend one on one in many situations. Really hope these guys win the championship!
Also, great video! Look forward to everything you post!
Exactly, Luka can now play one on one defense and its scary for the league because he can also go nuclear any moment of the game on offense aswell.
Been SAYING LUKA FOR THE CHIP FOR YEARS!!!! Finally we are coming closer and closer
Best basketball breakdowns on RUclips! Not a moment waisted. Very entertaining.
Thank you so much!

man the way you say Jumper just scratches an itch in my brain its incredible
I’m glad to be of service 😂
Love your videos, you really help me to understand the game on a level beyond casual
Great analysis thanks.
Construction-wise, this Mavs team is like the "Return of LeBron" era Cavs but different at the same time. Luka is like Bron because he's that big playmaker who stuffs the stat sheet, but different because he thrives a lot on skill-based shot creation unlike Bron who thrived mostly on his peak athleticism. Kyrie is still Kyrie, but more enlightened this time because he's seen things both good & bad. PJ Washington is Kevin Love being the resident stretch 4, but different because he's more lanky & athletic than KLove which makes him more switchable on defense. They even have their hustle / rim protection bigs a la Tristan Thompson & Timofey Mozgov in Gafford & Lively, the athletic perimeter stopper a la Iman Shumpert in Derrick Jones Jr., and the volume shooting wing a la JR Smith in THJ. Oh, I think I almost forgot... they even have that Aussie playmaker off the bench a la Delly in Dante Exum to cap off the borderline eerie similarities between both teams. 👀
where was this energy from everyone last year when the trade went down. League was laughing then. but crying now haha

very good analysis!
Thank you!
Casuals backtracking so hard about the mavs 😂 I thought “kyrie and luka” wouldn’t work
well most ppl saw the at the end of last year we knew that kyrie might be a problem and over the whole career up till this year the mostly have been net negatives of d so ppl saying they might not work where just going by what they have seen up till that point. also i think if the didn't improve on d and pj save them for 2 games they would not be here
@user-ut1qw1ts1k but people were saying Ky and luka wouldn't work due to their playstyles not meshing well which goes to show nba fans do not even watch the sport as KY has played next to 2 extremely ball dominate players prior to luka and he was elite both times
@@user-ut1qw1ts1kKy hasn't done or said ANYTHING negative since coming into the league. Don't let the media steer your judgement
@@ljreigns1945 yes but lebron is a near dpoy player the other team didn't work at all. also the main thing you forget is that they where both net negatives on d if you go up againist sga with 2022 luka and ky they loses in 7

Beautiful breakdown
Superb breakdown
Luka and Kyrie are also playing the best defense of their lives. It’s fun to watch.
LUKA IS THE TRUTH💯
Kyrie-Drama & LUKA MAGIC UNSTOPPABLE on OFFENSE 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Those two are absolutely incredible 🙏
6:03 underrated luka pass
In fubol (soccer,) there is the saying, "joga bonito," meaning "the beautiful game" or "play beautifully" to describe one's elegant and beautiful way of playing. Kyrie Irving is the embodiment of this phrase. He may not be the best basketball player ever, but man, is he the most esthetic amd fun to watch. I'm so happy he is finding his place here in Dallas, I sure hope he retires here.
I always say hes like Ronaldinho of basketball,most naturally gifted player of all time
Mavs packing the Wolves up in 5
if mavs win its going 6 or 7 not 5
*4
@@ethanr0x true my bad 🙏🏾
I completely agree, wolves getting one game in Dallas and the rest is history. Wolves can’t keep up with what the mavs packing
Sorry had to come back after the game, LUKA DONCIC!!!!!
Let’s go Mavs! We are coming!
Mavs front office make genius move when they add 2 wing defenders on trade deadline
You mean one Center and one wing defender... right?
@@Smido83 They already had a elite wing defender in DJJ when he signed with them in free agency!
@@djkido316 And? What does that have to do with my point? Did we ad him at the deadline? No... but thats what the original comment said. "when they add 2 WING DEFENDERS" and we didnt!
Kyrie never ceases to be amazing! Mavs in 4 baby!
Speed over Experience brought Twolves to this game. Let's see if it's gonna work, again, against Doncic and Irving. What Twolves need to realize is that they have to face two MVP in this series, instead of just one Jokic.
Twolves will make adjustments. I thought it was over for them after losing 3 straight but they socked Denver in g6 on their way to win the series. Whoever wins this series is winning the chip. Boston has not faced a mentally tough opponent on their way to the finals while the mavs and twolves got rid of the 1st seed, the defending champs and a paper superteam.

Luka's message: "Kid, you're not the new face of the NBA"
1:00 this play was so unreal. Lively wasn't even ready for the pass, Luka's just bouncing it off him to get a new dribble.
I see Lukas knee is looking much better and kyrie in his bag
Kyrie is too quick for Ant. If he continues to guard him, say bye bye to his offensive game. He'll run out of gas. Mavs is a different kind of beast. If Wolves don't adjust, boi oh boi, they could get swept or go home early.
Luka and Kyrie have the timberwolves living in North Korea
Prime Klay and Steph???
Luka makes Ant a cone on defence🍦😂
The fact that they were so atrocious from 3 is both promising and worrying for the mavs.
They had to work so hard and do all this wizardry to keep up with Wolves who simply made their 3s. Yet that they managed to do that at doesn't bode well for the Wolves. If just a couple more 3-balls fall this game is a blowout.
It will be interesting to see how both teams adjust and I'm especially curious if Ant will step it up cause he honestly didn't look that great.
shaq said it at the beginning of the season n nobody listened i bet they ears open now💯
Shaq certainly hasn't supported the Mavs since then
I felt like he was just talking and wasn’t fr but hey maybe for once he made a crazy prediction lmao
Gobert sticking to drop coverage the entire game despite it being one of Lukas greatest strengths was also kind of baffling. He'll take the defence apart no matter what, but I feel like Gobert's approach makes it much easier.
That’s on coaching more than anything though, Gobert can’t abandon the scheme.
Their defense is even better. Best backcourt ever
Luka is more MJ than Anthony Edwards
well he plays nothing like mj so ant is closer
If it comes to numbers and workload, yes. If it comes to playstyle, no.
Bird
Luka is a different animal. I don’t think Ant is even close to MJ, though.
Luka more like a fusion between lebron and harden
The Warriors with their backcourt beat a Cavs team that was around the fifth best team of all time. And they did it with ease. Let's not start glowing each other just yet
If luka and kyrie win it all kyrie would have beaten his former teammate in harden while playing better then harden all series then beat the 1 seed then beat the wolves who have all the momentum in the world after beating the defending champs then beating the city that hates him the most in boston
It felt like the Mavs did the bare minimum to win it, whereas the Wolves gave their all, hit them all and still lost. I wonder how they are planning to turn this around. I hope it doesn't include violence. OKC are watching Luka and Kyrie run around happily and score, thinking: "Yeah, now that they can." I hope the Mavs win and go to the finals and win again because it's only proper.
They'll try to injure lively
Damn. :(
I thought McDaniels was an elite defender until I saw how easily Kyrie blew pass him every time
Those first two plays were for sure a travel, specially the first one. Luka is still nasty no doubt. This is gonna be a great series, just want more consistency from the refs.
🐐
Midrange shots can still win games
Cant let a day go by without someone being offended about something 🤷♀️
Don’t argue Kai & Luka are the best. It’s unfair to have 2 of the greatest scores on the same team with a good defense. Everybody will see after they win the chip. I feel like Kyrie hasn’t even turned it all the way on yet.
If the MAVS shoot from 3 a bit better next match the will be difficult to beat!
Can't believe anyone doubted this team up. It's a better lebron plus kyrie. And both are in a good place. However I will disown all of the NBA if pacers win this year
The Mavs have no business being this good right now LoL
They've been the best team in the league on either defense/offense since the trade deadline.
@@djkido316 Offensively the best was between Denver and Boston. Defensively the best has been Minnesota all season. They've been neither for this past season.
@@TheeKing7lmaooo thats why he said trade deadline buddy the Mavs didnt even get to play a full season with this Mavs roster
@@yom0mma214 I know what he said. I'm saying it's wrong. I'm saying that all season, no matter which portion of it, the teams I said were the best on those sides of the court.
If anyone in media claims SGA or Ant are better than Luka its for reasons other than basketball.
Sooooo we're not going to talk about the blatant travel by Luka at 0:50 🤨 I"m editing this message because he travels age in less than fifteen seconds 🤦🏿♂0:58
Ant and Jaden need to switch matchups
Ant is too small for Luka (ik that sounds crazy but it is what it is) McDaniels is too slow for ky. McDaniels is definitely too little for Luka and ant doesn’t have the stamina too keep up with ky for all that time for at least 4 games. This series is over. I suggest wolves just use this as a learning experience and get better next year. Hats off to luka and Kyrie on getting a ring this year. Idk why ppl are even surprised we know who Luka and ky are
I don't know it's possible it's over but, if the wolves figure out how to play their game again, they might still win it. Dalles looked stronger but Luka and Kyrie played absolutely incredibly crafty. The question is will they be able to keep it up if the wolves just bumb em on every possession instead of trying to stop 🛑 them and focus on their own offence a little more.
It's gonna be a battle of will again so, even if they make it through the finals will be incredible tough (exhaustion).
As far as defense goes, don't even try to fully stop Kyrie and Luka, just play physical on every possession and get the rebounds. Then with that extra energy make your shots and the wolves win, cause it's two against 5 or 2 vs 4 out there. But it's incredibly fun to watch.
You are crazy for talking like this is some foregone conclusion. Either you're a fanboy or you hate them and wanna set them up for the old Skip Bayless hedge of if they win, it was easy and if they lose, it was a historic chokejob...after talking about how overrated said team was all year and how great the opposition was lol
@@DeadSezSo when watching the game all I could vision was a karate teacher teaching a student, I just don’t know what the wolves can do to keep up with them. Maybe im overreacting, time will tell. We’ll revisit shortly brother ❤️
Well you can either be too small for luka or too slow for luka. No winning here.
Splash Bros were better, maybe not as skilled but their past success speaks volumes.
If Luka and Ky win a couple of championships together THEN we can have the conversation about them being the “Best Backcourt We’ve Ever Seen.” 💯
still a bit early they anit even won the wcf so i think we got to want and see
Better than the KD Kyrie duo
I’m just hoping a western team wins. I can’t fathom a Celtics chip. People I know irl will make me kms if I see more Celtics shit on my timeline

luka and Kyrie are an awesome duo but best offensive backcourt ever? maybe thats my personal preference but id take Steph and Klay in their prime over them
They shot the 3 so poorly and won anyway, this series is over.
Steph and Klay is the best backcourt every yall trippin 🤦🏽♂️ Its only been one game. They havent even won one ring yet!
Im just saying.. Steph doesnt score 24 in a half with Ant on him, nor does he rain 3s with McDaniels on him
And Klay lived off the defense targeting Steph
They close but klay is a shooter not a scorer there's level to it, Luka and Kyrie are pure scorers!
I’m ngl y’all, I’m rooting for the Mavs, but it’s only Game 1
Wishing Antman get humbled by Kyrie!
They won by what 2 points? If the other team made 1 more shot you'd be talking about how great they are
U are a causal little bro sit down
And what’s 108-105 again O Yeah 3😂
We are going to forget Harden-CP3 backcourt that neraly destroyed the best team of all time huh? Lol. But props to luka and kyrue for being a great backcourt too
Harden in the playoffs was never and never will be as good as Luka, Do you even know who's the second leading scorer in the NBA Playoff history? Its Luka, Harden isn't even in top 5 lol. Kyrie was and always will be better than CP3.
7711 or 1177 😎
1337 all the way

Luka/Kyrie averaged 59.5/14.2/15 on 49.2/39.3/82% shooting splits in the reg season. Even Curry/Thompson came never close to that. Noone said most winning backcourt...
Championships are team accomplishments.
Sir what makes you call the backcourt of Luka and Kyrie historic I saw someone say it was the best backcourt in NBA history and I was quite confused as to why
Name a better one. Noone is saying better duo. But name another backcourt duo that averaged 59.5/14.2/15 on 49.2/39.5/81% shooting splits in the reg season... Not even Curry/Thompson came ever close to that production.
@@Smido83 stats is not everything, especially reg season, until Ky and Luka keep the elite consistency in over a decade and some rings along the way, then they are not better
