Why do people always say they are hunting Pritchard or Huntin Sam Houser and yet the entire NBA doesn't constantly hunt Luka doncic..

He is not even half the defender that Sam Hauser is... Why he gets away with teams not attacking him far more than what they do is way beyond me..

Yeah. But 2 on JB, too.

Is Kyrie really worth this much attention? Honestly at this point not really worth booing him aside in starting lineups

Tatum’s problem with being completely invisible early in games is that he ends up forcing crap later on

Too many weapons.

As long as they limit the dumb and lazy, not too many teams can beat them.

Luka is smart.

When he's being hunted, he just lets his guy score.

Luka will not foul as he's content to give up the score.

That's why the Mavs will never be legit contenders.

Very comfortable with Tim Hardaway Jnr chucking up 3s.

Defensively the Mavs are also very vulnerable.

Tatum really hasn't had any meaningful offence impact so far. Terrific start.
