    Luka had 28/15/10 last night, and the Mavs still lost. He doesn't have to choke to lose games, as he showed last night.

    Again, all these games have been super tight. My point was only that of all the series I've seen where a team was down 0-3, this might be the best chance I've ever seen for that team to actually do what hasn't been done before and pull out the series. I'm not saying that WILL happen.

    It’s also about peaking or playing the best basketball at the right time. Dallas has shot the ball great, ball sharing is smooth, and their bigs have played very well thus far. Not to mention their superstars have been consistent. Not sure where this luka isn’t playing great narrative comes from. He has 2 triple doubles and avg 31.5 ppg this series.

    What is Lively’s status? I think he makes a difference.

    Luka is the best 2/3 in the world right now or however long. It's undeniable.

    Agreed, I don't know if this was shared earlier in the thread. They're going to win the series barring a lottery chance, and he's an incredible player who might win a title this year.

    But perhaps it's because Luka complains to the refs so much, they need to keep the play-calling equal imo.

    Sheldon Anderson smiling at these Luka Harden Scott Foster comparison videos. Get ya money up Sheldon says to Tilman.

    But for real those clips absolutely suck. 2018 was for the Rockets. Convenient for the nba to realize after a decade of very good rockets basketball that it probably wasn't the best idea to aid a team already loaded so they can create a dynasty

    Apparently I’m the only clutch fan watching the game. Oh well. I’ll be hanging with Minnesotans at halftime

    Kyle Anderson in for defensive purposes but totally destroying all the spacing because he can’t shoot. And people here want to continue getting players that can’t shoot. At some point you have to put the ball in the basket.
