Honestly better they give props than most of the media continuing to disrespect Rudy.

The Hoop Collective podcast with Windy literally tried to warn Dallas and predicted he would end up being a cancer to the team. I’m personally glad Ky is making these mf’s eat their words.

They never tore down the pairing, they tore down Kyrie. Hey, I agreed with the media on this one. Watching Kyrie force his way out of Cleveland, then the dumpster fires that he left in Boston and Brooklyn, it was hard to take him seriously anymore. Don't forget that he randomly disappeared from Brooklyn multiple times without consulting the team before the whole vaccine fiasco (around when Harden was traded there). Kyrie hasn't had a meaningful basketball moment since the 2017 playoffs (well, one game against the celtics in 22 before he disappeared again). His teams have fallen apart and he has been embroiled in a bunch drama. He is an aging 2 gaurd. They weren't wrong with thier observations. Their opinion was built off of a ton of evidence. And their opinion turned out to be wrong. I for one am truly happy that my opinion is wrong. I love watching an engaged Kyrie on the court. But its not like the NBA media was blasting him out of nowhere.

@@bigmike11559yes they did. ESPN tried to say it wouldn’t work from the beginning.

they looked terrible that first half season they played together, and struggled until the additions of pj and gafford really

​@@Muhannad.Ahmed1kyries the leader and luka the best weapon

Ong

Luka is Robin and Kyrie is batman

that is actually the perfect way to put it Kyrie leading with experience Luka gets to go off

@@bryanpotter3882so robin closed the game out? Kyrie went 1/9 in the 2nd half 😂😂😂

Kyrie looks up to jkidd

Nah that’s sham god

Yep credit to coach Kidd

Both were champions as players that shouldn't be unnoticed

You have to give a coach credit when a team is moving the ball and playing defense. That is almost always a well coached team.

That’s true, Kidd deserves his flowers. He’s grown into a really good coach & that’s been overlooked a lot

@@marckusduverger9776 oh yeah and the staff too i mean they taped up Luka mid playoffs

Superstar is wild. Let’s let him keep this up for a couple more years

Masterclass now..

@@notsoperfectdrummerhe said “future superstar” fam😂 Why do y’all get triggered so easily 😂

@@IGotTheNewness all I said was let him earn it. Why are you so pressed about things being earned vs just given? Probably a liberal lol

@@notsoperfectdrummeryou an idiot, he clearly has to earn it when it’s about the future.

Looked like the 4th or 5th best last night...

Perkins said Ant and KAT were the best duo 😂😂😂

ESPN (and especially Perk) want it to be Shai and ANT so bad... It looks like they'll have 10 more years of Luka and Joker being the best 2 in the world.

@@NoWayBro88 for obvious reasons...

Luka is the best player and Kyrie is the 2nd best player.

Yes and now that they are really playing defense, they are difficult for to stop

Bron and Kyrie .

@@Philly.267brons a SF/PF

@@VideoRandomChannel Bron really SF/pg

Klay and Steph 4 rings Bro As much as Luka & Kyrie are incredible

They will win it all.

Who else is gonna guard him tho

He was gonna guard him whether he wanted him or not

Whether he was going to guard him or not, he still called him out at the end of the day. And he got exactly what he wanted

@@letsgobrandon1906 exactly he's literally the perfect person to guard him

Ant poked the bear

It's just their teams

Windy and Krueger both need to give Kyrie credit. He showed up after they said he didnt contribute enough. That being said, Windy also has higher vertical than you would think

Please Dallas can’t score with the wolves if both hitting shots

@@jayhenderson3278 Don't make me laugh.

@@jayhenderson3278 remind me who missed more shots and won the game last night. oh right, the Mavs.

Bro it’s one game kyrie is an all time great player but let’s be honest he won’t keep this up his performances are very inconsistent ant had a bad game and game was still close so remember luka and kyrie played well and won a tight ball game be careful what you wish for 🤔🙏🏽

@@nikkyblammon6814and they shot like 20% from 3? Paint was free for the Mavs last night. If Luka and Kai start hitting 3s that’s even more trouble for y’all. Idk what your statement is indicating

He has to, it’s in his contract

I think Legler actually picked the Wolves on the All Nba podcast

95% picked the wolves but people knew it would be a hard win for wolves But people like Stephen a Perkins and other espns idiots said it was gna be a rollover series

@@michaelmo1977legs picked the Mavs but said there was no chance it goes lessees than 5 games.

@@pbenavides09 What show was that on? He mentioned on the All NBA podcast that the Wolves for the title favorite.

@@michaelmo1977nah go to ESPN. He picked them in 7.. 9 ppl from the panel picked MIN & 6 picked DAL. Legs was one of em

Windy knows the game a little bit, too, now.

Legler needs to be an NBA coach.

Lucry is more fitting

They can definitely win and it shows. Only fools believe LuKai Cenat

professional experts, better known as professional idiots.

they let Dallas shoot 25% from 3 on open shots and lost 😭

Easy to hold Denver when their offense is based from inside out Jokic banging in there, Dallas has guys probing totally different offense, Luka puts you in that pick and roll then your on his back, Denver has nothing like that.

SAS said Minnesota played the best Defense in the last 30 years 😊😂

Right cause Kyrie been doing his thing

Just for all you MJ fans that want to anoint Kyrie better than Pippen All-Time: Kyrie: All NBA 2nd team x1, All NBA 3rd team x2 Pippen: All NBA 1st team x3, All NBA 2nd team x2, All NBA 3rd team x2, All NBA Defense 1st team x8, All NBA Defense 2nd team x2 Just stop it.

@@Reaper13-hi3yo Man these MJ stans cant help but comment on every ESPN video, CTESPN indeed lmfao

@@xBonafidexProdigy Lebron haters/MJ fans are more obsessed with Lebron than Lebron fans

Why do Bron name come up he’s not playing haters just making him wealthier

On bro get Kimberly off my screen

Loool facts biggest wafflers in the crew

They got the c team today lol boring 😴

LMAO

They got the woke Dollar Tree crew working when it isn't NFL season.

We would never know

@@yadant-m674 easy 2015 and that Brooklyn team also wins it easy!!

Fax

Screw them except fo Tim legler kudos to him best basketball analyst in media end of discussion their is none

He has.nothing but respect from me and you Also sir❤ Mavs in 6

After all that talk he gonna say "we are just tired"? Lousy for their MJ hahaha

It's funny how everyone was saying Luka was faking his injuries, and when he had sub-par games, everyone was killing him. Now the same people are saying ANT was too tired to play down the stretch... being tired isn't an excuse this late in the season. Kyrie is 10 years older and hung 24 on you in the first half... give me a break.

Says the guy who probably couldn't play 5 minutes of an NBA game without collapsing

@djm2196 that had to be the dumbest comment I've seen all day... Obviously, no, I couldn't last 5 minutes playing against NBA level guys... I'm also not the one getting paid millions of dollars to not show up when my team needs me, then use the old "I'm tired" excuse. The man he called out is a decade older than him, and scored more points in the first half than he did all game... give me a break you clown.

@djm2196 that's the dumbest comment of the day... Obviously, no I can't play in an NBA game against NBA level talent... I'm not the one getting paid millions to play a child's game, and then hit everyone with "I'm tried" cop out. Can I go to my boss and tell him I'm too tired to work after lunch, and still be considered the MJ of shop managers?

Kyrie needs to prove he can do it without bron

Kyrie injured in brooklyn

Kyrie was hurt. They never really got the chance.

@@greenwaytruckinginc6134 Kyrie wasnt hurt when they played Boston. KD got exposed in that series because he cant handle heavy pressure

@@greenwaytruckinginc6134yes they did. Look at 2022 when they were swept. I don’t care about harden either, they were talked about as finals favorites that whole year and harden wasn’t there for months at that point. They were considered finals favorites before harden arrived too. Kyrie is just a better player than KD if gets it done.

they gave ant a minute 30 segments let Tatum have that type of game and a L and its what the whole show would be around with the title being “aRe TaTuM aNd ThE cElTiCs In TrOuBLe?”

🙏🏿✊🏿🐐nobody

God is with Luca and Kyrie! Is that what you are saying 😂

What people don’t mention is this iteration of this Mavs team has only been together since the trade deadline.

@@joesutherland9354 good point. Good post.

Na he is not luka has a far bigger impact on the team outside of his scoring

lol

@@fk4410casual take, he’s not the leader of this team

Oh man, already doing to that pair what they do to jb and jt. Tryna tear one down when complimenting the other

Teammates love both Luka and Kyrie, no need for division

Kyrie has never had a bad playoff run. These ppl are weird 😂

Oh you'll end up with alot of disappointments this series 😂

@@ASalahSamak Maybe two. Then the series will be over.

@@gregkleinfall1901 he doesn't get that Luka can't sustain that level for long. But he'll find that out the hard way . Young blud ANT winning his 1st ring fohsure

@@ASalahSamak What? Luka has been putting up these type of numbers in every playoff game he has been in since he joined the league. The only thing that slowed him down in this years playoffs was a sprained knee. What are you smokin, cuz I want some.

@@gregkleinfall1901 you really don't get it do you? Cuh we'll just talk by the end of the series then

I mean he was the only guy who showed up to play for Minny last night..

Facts

Thats some pure bs. Lebron has always praised Kyrie's ability during their tenure together and allow him to cook whenever he wants. In fact, they have such a great partnership and it was a pity that some misunderstanding caused them to break up but Kyrie himself admitted that he was still quite immature at that stage and looking back, he would have loved to play with Lebron again which he did but Brooklyn chose to trade with the Mavs.

​@@shawnchia3611 The reason Kyrie didn't sign with the Lakers is because had the Lakers won, the narrative would've been: "Where does 5 rings put LeBron?" How does that benefit Kyrie?

@@EduardoOliveira-zx9ju yea right so u can speak for how Kyrie feels? Fact is that Kyrie wanted to join LeBron again to the Lakers but the Nets prefer Mavs’s offer or they don’t wish for Kyrie to join the Lakers but the ball was in Net’s court regardless

espn always praised him as a player (unless he had a bad game or something)

@@tolstoyed Lies! He was called "Team killer" "Narcissist" "Cancerous" and "Idiot" for YEARS!

@@EduardoOliveira-zx9ju what does any of that have to do with him as a bb player?

@@tolstoyed We're wondering the same thing. A athletes' religious beliefs, sexuality, politics, and world views are COMPLETELY irrelevant to me! I know how to separate the talent from those things

@@EduardoOliveira-zx9ju that’s why the media separates those things as well. they love kyrie for the stuff he does on the court, and dislike and criticize his off the court nonsense

And the Mavs are one of the best three point shooting teams in the league. Wolves won’t have magnet the rest of the way.

Just watch the game because he did a good job on defense.
