I’m a Mavs fan, nothing Windy said was wrong. Luka’s defense in the finals has been horrible until last night and his complaining has been affecting his team. Hopefully he keeps this up and we can get one in Boston and push it to game 6

@@prevyhiphop well dont blame him because he is spending most of his energy on the offense, he is carrrying all of this ofensive load for 3 games and 2 bad fouls on 4th quarter of game 3 and now he is the one causing his teams failure? nah on that 2 games his role players didnt show up, and in game 3 they only started clicking when they are making the comeback. I cant blame him for bitchin and moaning because he wants to win and is doing everything to get points while his team cant even shoot an uncontested threes. His frustrations just piled up and its bad to lash out on your teammates so whos the next one to lash on? the refs ofcourse and his opponents. Lukas is just frustrated and maybe still inexperienced enough to handle this situations because clearly he wants to win.

lol it was controversial because Luka is the reason they are there, so calling him not a winner is garbage and just so premature and his defense is not the reason they are losing the series. Mavs whole team have been terrible defensively also Mavs were not gonna win game 3 too and im a mavs fan. ESPN has just turned into hot take city with the most overreactions. Its embarrassing

What about when Doncic struggled all first round vs clips and Kyrie carried him? And them struggling first half of the okc series while PJW stepped up big time in scoring and defense carrying both Luka and Kyrie? Was Doncic still the reason they won those two series?

easier said than done Windy.....hes hurt, he is the entire offense.....and 4 of his 6 fouls were controversial...even the last foul...brown pushed off.... Windy quit talking about Luka, if it was lebron, you would be questioning the officials. I hate reporters who kick a guy after he had an off night. Luka is one of the 2 or 3 best players in the league, hes 25 years old....dont forget that..

Yup that is exactly true. Monday is the real test to see if they’ve actually figured out their team
Windbag has always been a Luka hater and he took the opportunity to talk bad about him. Luka didn’t call those fouls on himself.
Luka stepped up and fixed everything Windy said to fix, the Mavs bench played great and Boston sucked on all sides. Things wont line up like this for 3 more games, it's over but the didn't get swept.
Doncic had a bad game 3 and Windhorst is fat.

Game 1 was the only one that he was bad in. Game 2 he nearly had a triple double and game 3 he had 31, game 4 he played like half the game and shot 40 percent so I wouldn’t say he sucked in that one Plus hes playing incredible defense, don’t just look at the box score
Great response Luka plus mavs. It’s what greatness is about.
Also game2! They have a chance to win but bcoz of that 1 miss call on PJ that kill there momentum, same in game3, I hope they totally find a hole to beat Boston so that we have a game7

HAHAHAHA! I had correctly predicted the Mavs will destroy the Celtics(and won a lot of money betting) - the Celtics are proven chokers, they had a meltdown against the Heat, Bucks and Warriors. Losing aa 3-0 lead is such a very Celtics thing to do and they will be the first team in the NBA to do so. They got very complacent, relaxing and arrogantly thinking the Mavs would simply fold. They forgot the Mavs destroyed the best team in the West OKC and destroyed Michael Jordan(Ant) and his team who destroyed the defending champs Nuggets and heavily stacked team Phoenix Suns. Luka and Kyrie are veterans and care about their legacy and very motivated to win unlike Tatum and Brown. Without Porzingis, the Cs are just an average team. Shout out to Brian Windhorst for waking Luka up.

These guys has already cursed Luka on his one bad game. Every player’s has its ups and down. He must be hurting that time, you will never know. He cooked all Celtics players. Luka just needs to be conditioned next season.
He doesn’t need to make up for something that you created from the figment of your imagination. He’s a great player, he’s banged up, he’s up against a great Celtics team. Stop trying to build this “bad leadership” narrative. It’s untrue and quite frankly embarrassing
Boston hasnt won it all since 2008. The Mavs actually think they have a chance on Monday. They clearly dont know the 16 yr struggle. Theres no way they dont win on Monday. ☘️18
Hed leave a hole in the court if he stepped on it.

Boy he realizes people are hip to his cop-out. Windhorst you dug yourself in a canyon hole. Luka is the best in the NBA, but you caved into ESPN and their narrative that a white European man can’t be the best in the NBA, and can’t be the face of the NBA. 75 years ago this was the same problem of the then sports announcers who could not admit that a black player could be the best player and the face of NBA. It;s the ESPN sports announcers that live with the demon inside just as it was those sports announcers 75 years ago. Today sport player people change and get better; now its time for ESPN sports announcers to change and get better.
If the Celtics blow this… they will be the most laughable team of all team. They’ll need to blow it up.
