2024 NBA Playoffs: West Semifinals: #1 Oklahoma City Thunder vs #5 Dallas Mavericks (DAL WINS 4-2)

[MoneyTalks41890]

Shai is really that dude. Can’t wait till he comes home later in his prime

Shai’s not wasting his prime in Toronto

Can u just leave Toronto alone... We've had enough L's lately lol.

Lost our draft pick, Drake, Leafs, Blue Jays.

Well you didn’t lose Drake, but Drake did lose.

The chances of Luka getting leaner this offseason are slim to none. He's already committed to playing for Slovenia AGAIN (4th year in a row), meaning very little time for strength and conditioning work and even less for improving his shooting. Expect him to show up like this again next year.

He doesn't even need to do strength and conditioning.

Just improve his diet a bit and he will lose a ton of weight. Think about how many calories he uses.

I can only imagine how bad his diet must be for him to play in the NBA and still gain weight.

[ArksNetsSince99]

Been actively rooting against KD/Kyrie/Harden this whole playoff. 2 more OKC wins and goal achieved.

I was rooting against KD and Harden - goal achieved

Kyrie , idk i still kind of feel that whole **** was partly Marks/Tsai fault along with Kyrie antics so I don’t root against Kyrie

**** Boston and the Knicks though

Charles Barkley was eating whole pizzas and couldn't burn the weight off in his early years. Idk what Luka is eating to gain so much weight WHILE playing the highest level of basketball. Someone keep the texas BBQ away from him.

[GrandTheftRondo]

Mavs aren’t out of it.

I’d say it’s far more likely that either Luka or Kyrie bounce back with a big game over J-Dub.

In fact it’s a bit concerning that OKC almost lost with how badly those two played

[dygaction]

If Doncic continue playing at this level, might just sit and even that means losing this series to avoid prolonged bang up and worsen the injuries.

He probably drinks a lot

[CobraCommander]

Damn blame Kyrie threads and Blame Luka threads when the team loses shooting 50% from FT-

This is soooooo weird

Think someone said a while ago that NBA players actually don’t do a whole lot of stuff during the season.

Sounds like Luka’s yet to really have that mid 20s moment where he realised for the good of his career and title chances he needs to really dial in during the off season.

To be honest though he does look hurt in this series. I doubt his knee is right.

[WentzerWuver]

He does not score much in first 3 quarters, but people were giving him a leeway as he was scoring in 4th quarter. Now he is not scoring in 4th quarter as well. So why play him if thats how he gonna roll? Move him to bench if he does not improve and keep letting his team down.

But just about everyone says he is top 75 over Dame Lol

I'm pretty sure he lives on brats and IPAs

With the calorie loss due to training and games I can easily assume his diet is terrible

And is not like bad food , it’s chips and high sugar Pepsi whole night long kind of diet

It brings so much joy to me how much rent Boston occupies in that head of yours

[sfernald]

Sure it did. But Mavs looked plenty bad in game 1 against the Clippers too down 30 before making a run in garbage time to get it closer.

No need to be defensive, it’s just an opinion.

90 ppg given up this postseason.

Yeah against the Pelicans. Since then? Back to back 100 pts given up including Ls.

96 tonight

It's 50/50, but Mavs snatched a defeat from the jaws of vicotry, had a chance to come bqck and choked again, Kidd needs to do a lot of mental work until Wednesday.

Just a fraction compared if hypothetically Boston have Durant or Harden on their squad

It’s not even a hate , I Hate the Knicks , Boston I consider frauds who’s take advantage of very weak Eastern Conference

Mavs missed 11 free throws and looked like an offensive liability so I really don't think that's some flex.

Docs told him it can’t get worse.
lol he can’t play any worse either I guess.

To be honest I’d prefer the Mavs hurry up and lose. We aren’t winning anything with sprained knee Luka
