This is my favorite picture from the NBA right now, because it expresses: brotherhood, loyalty, trust, male overexertion to the limit, self-sacrifice, affectivity, abandonment, etc. and all in reciprocity. They are like 2 comrades in arms who return home wounded, supporting each other, after having each other's backs and defeating the enemy...
I became a fan of Mavs basketball since Dirk came to this team. Staying a fan after his time was caused by Luka. He transported Dirk's way of being down on earth as a person. To see that there is arised an new team of chemistry. Luka and Kyrie reflect this. Wonderful and rare at this day and age.
My goodness Luka playing with blood on his injured knee oh boy... Ky, PJ, Exum and the rest of the team do all their best to help him and the Mavericks... How sweet to watch such a good atmosphere for a team that is struggling injuries throughout this season🎉🎉🎉 Luka MVP
@@rashardstallworth9240 nah…Kyrie has always been a willing leader. That Boston drama matured him. That’s from his own perspective. He’s definitely grown as a leader.
I was thinking pelicans was my dark horse about 2 weeks ago. But what the Mavs are doing while the spotlight is on them. They Put the whole league on notice
Very very strong duo. They can do it I think. Both with great passing abilities, creating space and plays, good court presence, one really deadly in penetrating the paint, with one good in size to battle the offensive rebounds and posts, while both can shoot almost anywhere including the 3 point area. I think we'll see them in the Finals.
@@vuvuniyonaman literally no surprise. as soon as they traded jrue over summer i knew this season was done let alone TWO new coaches in a season. low key this is all on giannis. not everyone can be LeGM.....and ima sixers fan so im absolutely reveling in all this bucks failure led by Glenn lol! But yea Mavs playing well, rockets showing life (word to Udoka), wemby and spurs getting some quality wins, bulls thriving without lavine, them villanova knicks are doggin teams, and of course.....EMBIID IS BACK!😤😤 Most unpredictable playoffs in my lifetime so far
@@occultsymbols in short no I'm far from salty. I'm just reporting what has happened in the league so far. I was actually biggin up the league but someone mentioned bucks so I responded with facts 🤷🏽♂️ no team has ever won a chip the first year with a new coach. Thats just history my friend. No team has won a chip with new coach and major trade like that. Add another coach change mid season and thats that. Not even mentioning names, just logistics. Now with names....AG a rookie coach (last rookie coach to win a chip was Nurse), Dame is a cone, and Glen is hopeless. Again all facts. Overall I love Greek, jokic, all that. Of course I rock with embiid the most but at the end of the day I'm a hoops fan. To me seeing jordan, iverson, shaq, kobe, bron, kyrie, greek, embiid, and wemby all in my lifetime is crazy
Most of the nba talking heads bash everything the luka mavs do. They haters get proven wrong time after time😂😂😂. They are still in denial about luka being the best player in the world
Kyrie and Luka are two of the most clutch players in the league, and now we see this showing by Dante. This team might achieve something miraculous in the playoffs.
Honestly, Luka just finally had a real teamate who can also handle pressure.. Dallas made him play before with Bums, hoping he can take Dallas to championship alone.
Remember all the things Kyrie got heat for? Now look back at them today and you see he was ahead of his time. The dude is a very wiseman and spectacular athlete. In that order.
This team is dangerous af if Kyrie and Luka can trust guys like Exum and PJ to knock down those clutch shots in the final minutes. The way that opens up the offense in late game scenarios is lethal
They will be the team to watch in the playoffs. They are clicking at the right time, playing together and it’s always a dangerous thing when Kyrie is motivated To Play Basketball. They are going to upset at least one team.
Exum tied the game, Jones with the clutch block, PJ's 3s, and Irving doing Irving stuffs. Luka finally surrounded by teammates that can support him and he's no longer a lone fighter.
During the LuKy embrace, the Jordan "flu" game came to mind. Mike had to be carried to the bench though. Amazing win with Houston in desperation mode, Dallas playing 3 games in 3.5 days, (3-0), and both LD and Ky playing 45 minutes AND OT! 🏆
He hesitates far too much on taking shots (which sometimes results in worse shots taken overall) but he is one of their best defenders (and this was evident in this game as well). He certainly deserves his minutes. He usually takes 2 or 3 shots and rarely makes more than one. He is just not taking many shots in general. And this sadly includes shots he is not taking shots he should take. Can throw the whole offense of when a player is too hesitant taking any shots. But again...overall he very much deserves his minutes. He is affecting the game positively in many ways. Just not so much in direct scoring.
Man Jabari Smith Jr missing that free throw set off a crazy set of events. Drain that and it's game. Dude gonna have to spend some extra hours at the FT line in practice..
Mvp luka is the only player in the nba to draw his double team defenders to the logo with the game on the line. Most feared player in the nba!!! Luka be like give me the ball...I've got this...again and again and...
This team can win it all those new acquisitions of Gafford and Washington Jr are some Dawgs both can go off for 30 both are defensive minded just what Mavs needed
Bro that hug at the end was 3:17 heart felt ❤. Kyrie Irving and Luka
because he is going through Ramadan, so his probably thirsty and hungry.

@@arjunadan3812 beautifully said 👍
He gave Lebron that same hug
“His knees are bleeding & he’s blocking jumpers” tuning in when he’s commentating makes it so much better
I don’t care Luka is such a hype man. Can never tell me it’s all about him dude loves it when his teammates shine
💯💯💯💯
The fact that he had the ball right before OT but he gave it to Exum tells me he doesn’t just think it’s the Luka show.
Where are the people and medias who told that Luka and Kai wont work? Lukas is too selfish and Kai is too problematic? Cant wait for the playoff!!
SAS, Nick Wrong, LeShannon Sharpe, Kendrick "Country Clown" Perkins...etc..
@@realbro1415 LeShannon 💀
They won’t say anything just like their winning streak
they wont last long in the playoffs they both cant play off ball and both cant play defense playoffs is a different ball game
@@Kobe-oh7ckIf Luka can bring Dallas to WCF with a blossoming Bronson why not with Kyrie? Dallas have better piece now.
Kyrie is finally home.
Meh he'll ask for trade next season
@@wongilank meehh, how did you know? Where to?
@@wongilankKyrie has a 3 year contract and Dallas has shown him so love I’d say more than Cleavland and he’s in his prime too rn

Credit also to luka for giving the ball to exum..
He’s learned to trust and that he doesn’t have to do everything , go Mavs !
Yeah the trust is there and it helps when you don’t have to play with Dwight Powell and Reggie Bullock 😂

Would love to see Luka win MVP. He deserves it.
No mvp candidate has 34 bleeding ppg. Better give him the title of MVP this year, otherwise Luka will get the grand finals mvp in PO..
Luka mvp, kyrie finals mvp, both nba champs😮

luka playing with bloody knees is badass af
... but i think he should sit out the next game or two. I think he needs it.
ya. we don't need to risk Luka against the freaking Hornets
@@ashamsthomas6026 fax , even if we lose i dont care , this man deserves everything
they needa sit him way more ans theyll win a chip by nxt 2yrs
This reminds me of kobe powering through injuries. Dat boi is hard as hell
@@asgoodasdead8337 don't worry uncle drew got it
Ngl when I got these tickets I thought it was gonna be kinda boring but legit was the best Mavs game I’ve been to! KAI THE TRUTH 🔥🔥🔥
Why would a game that has Kyrie and Luka in it ever be boring?
I wish I went
Everybody who watched this season know that the mavs is the most exciting team, i dunno from where u got this idea before .
You can just see the maturation in Kyrie's leadership
Yeah he's been amazing for the Mavs. A tiny bit of credit goes to Luka for allowing Kyrie to take on that role. Some guys would have too much hubris.
Remember when a reporter asked about lebron being a father figure to him 😂
@@circaenthat’s part of Luka’s growth. He’s trusting his team more.
Kyrie has always been this way. The media misrepresented him. They do it all the time.
@@rashardstallworth9240 nah…Kyrie has always been a willing leader. That Boston drama matured him. That’s from his own perspective. He’s definitely grown as a leader.
DANTE’S INFERNO!!! 🔥🔥🔥
LUKA INFERNO 🔥🔥🔥
Because he made that Game-tying Assist
@@ssarsi corny
Better: Dante's heaven, not inferno!!! What's going to you, guys?
@@ssarsi throwing an assist is wayy easier than making a clutch shot under pressure, it's not a knock on Luka but that is Exum's moment there
THANK YOU DANTE FOR GUARANTEEING MY DUBS A PLAY-IN SPOT💙💛🙏
MAvs will be the dark horse this playoffs watch out
I was thinking pelicans was my dark horse about 2 weeks ago. But what the Mavs are doing while the spotlight is on them. They Put the whole league on notice
Damn Kyrie
They gone be a fucking PROBLEM in the playoffs. 👀
Being from Cleveland I'm happy Kyrie got a team like this
Dante exam’s comeback needs to be studied

From being a bust for years to have a final chance in Dallas. Good for Dante

Best duo in basketball
Luka is one of, if not the best basketball player right now.
I'm glad the media and Kyrie having a positive season
Overtime and kyrie still fasting?🔥
Ramadan been over with since the 9th dummy.
That's what A team needs to win every one play their part👍💯
Best thing that happened to Luka was going down this season and seeing how the team shines with Kyrie. The chemistry Is unreal now
Love watching Luka not being indifferent with Kyrie.
Luka&Kyrie are phenomenal
The playoffs is gonna be crazy! So many teams are on fire and the playoffs haven’t even started! Every game will be a battle and I’m ready for it
you know you're done when you get blocked by luka 🤣
🔥🔥🔥💙💙💙
That’s how you make the players around you better.
Never forget how the media and the league treated Kyrie.
Kyrie and Luka will get several rings if they could just get one more key player I love both guys and Kyrie is always been one of my favorite players
Who doesn’t love a bromance?!! 😍
You gott love the Mavs crowd!
Its crazy to think that mavs with the number of clutch games they had, this is the only time they went to OT
Luka & Kyrie are 🔥
Honestly, Luka just finally had a real teamate who can also handle pressure.. Dallas made him play before with Bums, hoping he can take Dallas to championship alone.
As much as I like this Duo, I see Luka’s emotions playing a negative factor in the playoffs
Dallas loves some KYRIE ❤️⭐️❤️⭐️🙏🏿❤️🙏🏿
Luka was about to go up for the final shot, but he saw the open man, and made the right play
I really like Kyrie as a basketball player AND as a person. opposite of problematic, dont get it how people were saying that.
"i gatta go lay down after this game" lol epic
mad respect to luca
"His knees are bleeding and he's blocking jumpers!"
This match remembered me to euroleague. 💪🏻
Mashallah my brother Kyrie doing it
The right play is the best play. Dont force the shot if you dont got it. Nice pass Luka 💪💪
luka waving goodbye at 2:23 is underrated lol
Good to see Kyrie enjoying ball again no diddy
Luka letting Kyrie cook especially in the 4th was him knowing that KAI can takeover and clutch on scoring and facilitating at the same time 👌🏼
I’m glad they worked out after all that hate
Get Lowry Demar vibes from these guys what a duo.
Remember all the things Kyrie got heat for?
Now look back at them today and you see he was ahead of his time.
The dude is a very wiseman and spectacular athlete. In that order.
This team is dangerous af if Kyrie and Luka can trust guys like Exum and PJ to knock down those clutch shots in the final minutes. The way that opens up the offense in late game scenarios is lethal

Wow mavs get the best dinner during that trade deadline..PJ Washington is fit to mavs and very great addition

Exum Season Is On Fire🔥
Exum tied the game, Jones with the clutch block, PJ's 3s, and Irving doing Irving stuffs. Luka finally surrounded by teammates that can support him and he's no longer a lone fighter.
“But but Kyrie is a bad teammate” 😂😂😂😂
this explains the hug after the game
"The Giant Killer"...I like that one

Who told Kidd that Maxi knows how to play basketball ?
Right. Maxi hesitate toooo much, free on FT line or 3P line...At least he would stay healthy...
sorry but he is elite defender. stoping jokic on game vs denver proves it.
He hesitates far too much on taking shots (which sometimes results in worse shots taken overall) but he is one of their best defenders (and this was evident in this game as well). He certainly deserves his minutes. He usually takes 2 or 3 shots and rarely makes more than one. He is just not taking many shots in general.

But again...overall he very much deserves his minutes. He is affecting the game positively in many ways. Just not so much in direct scoring.
