I hope they realize how much different the results would have been had they not kicked their defenses up a notch. Also, Luka's starting to get serious. We're in for good games.

    luka has always known how to defend at an elite level, just never had the energy to spare from the heavy load on offense. Until now where he has guys that can be trusted to really operate on their own. Still a team that has been assembled only recently but if not this year, I say next year is their greatest chance at a ring yet. can only hope for no injuries

    • @randylahey8207
      @randylahey8207 Před 15 dny +1

      Definitely true, I think it has as much to do with who was around him as well. Their GM deserves tremendous credit for the drafting and trade deadline deals that have turned them into a real team. Luka can trust guys like Lively, Washington, and Gafford to help clean up mistakes and generally play solid positional defense. That frees him and Kyrie up mentally and allows them to play D worry free and give their best. They're turning into the Celtics biggest threat IMO. As long as they stay healthy, they are a problem...

    @DebasedAnon Před 15 dny +4

    Somehow this elite defense, which was also #1 in the league for the final stretch of games, is still being underrated severely by the media...
    The most you get is "oh yeah they played pretty good defense" meanwhile they're slobbering all over the Wolves defense (even though they let the Nuggets shoot a billion and one open threes in game 6 which they bricked).
    I've been saying for years that Luka could improve massively on defense if he put in more effort which, up to fairly recently, he couldn't do without exhausting himself due to being the entire offense himself.
    I got told by casuals that hes "too unathletic" and "he'll never be a good defender" which never made sense to me, basketball IQ and effort are the 2 most important things in defense as far as i see it.

    People like to say, "you must not have watched the Mavs all season if you think they're only now playing good defense." I watched almost every game and this level defense didn't exist even after the trade deadline. Yes, having 2 rotational Centers in Lively and Gafford helped tremendously, but the Mavs really only started clicking on defense in the final 15-20 games of the season.
