Can we get some love for JJ for dropping these while still traveling and callin games!

Thunder are about to put the NBA on notice⚡️

Mavericks fan. I'm cautiously optimistic about this series due to Gafford & Lively. Chet is going to have his work cut out keeping those two off the boards.

Click so fast I seen the thunder

Helluva coaching matchup in the okc mavs series

It was only a few weeks ago that I started watching the dunker spot podcast and it's from seeing them on this show. Appreciate that light being shined on them for those like myself who kinda stick to what/who they know and not so adventurous with sport talkers

lets not forget about dort, dude is an absolute menace on defense

Love listening to these guys break down the game

I heard no mention of Lu Dort while discussing role players for OKC… don’t overlook one of the best on-ball defenders with a 3ball in the entire game. Thunder in 6 ya digg

JJ are you getting worried about how badly national media takes on the Rudy trade might get? Sorry to say man but you would be in that group 😂

Naz reid was a major piece too in game 1 , he keeps wolves on flow

This is a series of close outs… who has more disciplined close outs and who plays the correct personnel on who they close out to.

Thanks JJ for not just talking about Luka and Kyrie but giving credit to their supporting cast. They're extremely athletic and play very good defense, and with Luka and Kyrie leading the offense, this team is not going to be stopped.

Before his body started failing him ,the time-lord covered crazy space

Its joy to listen to this guys no BS !

We thank you for not wasting our time in covering any series involving the Cavaliers 🙏

You were definitely Zeus in that bush game :) Loved the disclaimer at the end lmao

Mondays are also for the Dunkers! Nekias, Steve, and JJ let’s hoop it up!

Came to hear the Josh Hart commentary

Chet might not be on the same level as the top guys, but he's knocking at the door of the best rim protectors. He's already amazing at using his body and verticality, avoiding foul trouble for how often he is affecting the ball

"Lose my phone number" - JJ Reddick

Anyone else noticed how nekias slayed that beat in the beginning?:ooo

You guys forgot the Obi Toppin narrative in the Pacers-Knicks series. I expect him to wanna show what they are missing in him, especially after the awesome Bucks series he had.

OKC in 7. Jalen Williams establishes himself as a star. You heard it here first boys!

honestly its been fun watching knicks in the playoffs, josh hart has been crazy lolol dude is a worker. okc/mavs two of my favorite teams, hard to pick a winner but I gotta go with okc my hometown team

JJ. will you have Nekias and Steve on your coaching staff with the Lakers?

Lakers in 6

Yknow what I love. So often you can guess who gets the ring. But right now...? Almost all of the teams have a legit chance. This is gonna be super exciting!!

Nuggets in seven, Mavericks in six, Celtics in five or six and Knicks in six.

JJ Garden City hat 👌🏼

Whoa is that JJ with a new ‘stache?

Jj you were glazing the clippers

Best part about being an OKC fan is they aren’t going anywhere. Figured they’d be a 5-6 seed and they got the 1. They’re all still just kids, they have tons of cap space, and they’re loaded with a billion 1st round picks over the next few years. Operating with house money the rest of this postseason.

Mavs fan here, Maxi going down & not being able to play really for the rest of the playoffs hurts our rotation. We did THJ back but he isn’t a good defender like DJJ. We’ll see how Jason changes his rotations and sets up his matchups

No. 1 key to Dallas defense is to make Chet tired or fouled out as early as possible.

Tim Connolly built the wolves specifically for this nugget series 💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿

I have Dallas coming out of the west.

Naturally Kyrie can play defense against a 34 year old Harden but can he handle a 25 year old MVP...hmmmm

Would rather just hear from JJ and Tommy tbh

Luka Doncic vs Lu Dort matchup stats over the last three seasons: - 6 games played - 49:47 matchup minutes - 65 points (247 team points) - 45% FG, 26.9% 3PT - 29 assists / 9 turnovers

What I am concerned about is the speed the thunder plays with and lack of points the Mavs bench makes. I hope Jaden Hardy will get playing room to keep scoring up when Ky or Luka take a break. I don’t know why he hasn’t been getting much PT but I think it has something to do with his defense. So my hope is for him to put more energy into staying in front of his man and him actually getting playing time.

Luka's KNEE is affecting his 3 point shot That could be the difference in this game.

How dare no one mentioned Lu Dort, still love your insight guys!

Can we get the other two guys some decent cameras and microphones?

Minnesota in 7, Mavs in 6, Celtics in 5, Knicks in 6

F Shaq, Charles, and Kenny. This is real analysis, insights and an intelligent discussion. Thank you for doing such a great job, bringing value, and not wasting our time.

Shoutout to tommy

Really hype for Josh hart vs Aaron nesmith tbh.

How many times do yall think JJ could work pidgeon into a tv broadcast??

Mavs in 5

Damn George Hill took a stray lolol

And i think it's gonna be Celtics v Wolves in the Finals, just to put KG in a lil bit of a spot

There’s nun more satisfying as a Celtics fans when analysts would rather just avoid talking about them entirely rather than just regurgitate the same casual takes about shooting too many 3s and not showing up in the playoffs

Only here for the Knicks thanks

(18:28) It's a game of inches at the highest level and in the playoffs to boot, definitely tighter ... (21:32) Rudy Gobert is the missing piece the Wolves needed and he's like so great at his role, plus he scores too, with a great percentage ... That guys is very strong and I would not like to see that guy guarding the bucket when I am driving ! ooooh shyyyt!! what to do??? 😁 kick it ouuutt!!

this felt so mavs favored throughout the whole discussion

How will okc defend dallas pick and role

Jokic is in trouble, in a multitude of ways. If Minnesota beats Jokic, and wins the championship, teams will have to get bigger, in order to match up with Minnesota. When other teams get bigger, in order to match up with Minnesota, the side affect will be that they're able to implement the same strategy as Minnesota against Jokic, by throwing multiple bigs at him. Jokic has been a beneficiary of the small ball era, which may be coming to an end.

Mavs in 6

Yeah I hope Hardaway is good and ready.

Anthony Davis can be in THREE different spots at the SAME time: The floor, the lockerroom hurt and in Cancun

No Maxi really hurts because of the Chet matchup... The Mavs would have played a lot of small ball well spreading the floor and switching everything. I think Lively will get more minutes than Gafford just because he has a little better mobility.... Mavs in 6 KyLuka experience and clutch too much for the young bucks in the end. P.s. I am super excited for Brunson going against Rick.... Should be a blast

OKC/Dallas breakdown and no mention of OKC’s depth or elite defense. #1 seed for a reason. Who’s guarding Jalen Williams? Kyrie? Luka? PJ? Good luck. Another excuse to pump crybaby Luka

Lebron the Oldman and the three

Jj have u been interviewed by the Lakers yet? Ur name is all over the place about that. Media doing what the media does.💯

I would assume OKC finally uses Biyombo in this series. I think it's possible for the Thunder to win this series, it wont be easy.

Coach Reddick

I've heard of Homer's but some fans are just ridiculous please have that same energy when the series is over 😂

its good if mavs play bully ball ang keep those lobs active that would be great to watch

Whoever wins I just wanna see how they’ll attempt to dismantle Ant’s massive Wolves or the former champs (altho based on their game today it looks like it might be the wolves)

Thunder Pacers would be such a gut punch 😅

Mavs 6

Jj please take the coaching job for the lakers 💯

Hmmm Maverick perspective because we don’t know OKC at all

Denver and Minnesota are the best two teams in the league

lol u see how they don’t even mention the Celtics series 😂🍀 i love it 🫡

What plays the 5, got the skills of a guard and moves like a wing? ✌️words.

My main concern with the Mavs is that Luka has lost all confidence in his 3 and is struggling to knock ‘em down and we still need him to shoot it at a higher level.

In my opinion Rob williams the 3rd on the celtics when he was healthy was the best in the league at being at 2 places once.

Mavericks in six lukas hurt but he is the top dog 🐶 in scoring 33.9 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

Jj how tf does Indiana not have the personnel aginst The icks foh

Good on ya JJ, bring actual Basketball definition and explanation to the public, 1000 times more interesting than the goof round mound of rebound garbage national inquiry gossip... Preach move it to the next level,

lol Mavs fans are mad cocky about this matchup but at the same time they keep hedging their bets by saying Luka isn’t healthy so if they win, it’s because they’re better, but if they lose it’s because they’re banged up. 😂😂 let’s just play ball guys. What happens happens. You’ve got 2 great teams going at it and it should be a lot of fun. Let’s just enjoy the ride

LFGGGG!!!! KNICKS NATION BABY

Lively is making a lot of progress these play offs , he needs more minutes

Can we all admit that whoever makes it out the west is mopping the Celtics in the finals ?😭

Two words regarding Dallas vs OKC: Dante Exum

Coach kidd should use their size to their advantage

Let’s go Pacers! I have a feeling Pacers v. Knicks will go to 7

I think it's gonna be Wolves v OKC in the WCF, nice

If we are talking "SEE 2 places at once", then Tracy McGrady is the GOAT.

Hardaway doesn't go into slumps. He is a slump. Pass out waters on the bench please

I have all the faith in jokic, praise edwards and wolves all you want

Dallas Mavs Roster: Luka Dončić 2018 1st round, 3rd pick Kyrie Irving 2011 1st round 1st pick Dereck Lively 2023 1st round 12th pick P. J. Washington 2019 1st round 12th pick Timothy Duane Hardaway Jr 2014 1st round 5th pick Dante Exum 2013 1st round 24th pick Daniel Gafford 2019 2nd round 38th pick Jaden Hardy 2nd round 37th pick Derrick Jones Jr. Undrafted NBA Slam Dunk Contest champion (2020)

Mavs have a Jaylen Williams problem. I watched the guys do the 90's draft with Legler. Legler said Kevin Johnson and the guys were less than enthused. Well, there is a compilation video of guys saying who was the first person to bust their azz in the NBA. Guess whose name got mentioned the most. Kevin Johnson. He even made Iverson cry. Most guys are too young. I get it. Why do I bring him up? Shai and Jaylen Williams skipped the Jordan fadeaway and instead downloaded KJ moves. So if you don't figure that out, you have big problems. Many pundits give Chet a little credit to Chet, but usually right before they fawn about the greatness of Wemby. Here is my difference. Wemby, with his extraordinary talent, looks to explore all the possibilities on the basketball court. Chet only sticks to winning plays. It is a difference. Denver has a problem with Ant Man. They can't stop him, but his biggest asset is his brain. Were too busy comparing him to Mike and laughing at his jokes, but are missing out on his intellect. Better beat him now. Trust me! Denver has to take a look at DeAndre Jordan. Otherwise, what is he there for. I only saw Dre play one game this year, but he looked darn near like Lob City Jordan. Gotta think outside the box. Looks like Watson is the only one that even has a chance with Ant. Do not underestimate the hunger of Conley. I'm losing faith in NBA scouting. They are obviously foegetting the eye test. How does EVERYONE miss on Nas Reid. Better yet, it explains why the missed on Trayce Jackson Davis. The Knicks-Pacers is incredible. Haliburton is one of those super annoying guys that just won't leave you alone. Brunson is annoying in that he does't really look like a hooper, is noq blowi g kisses to the crowd like Oubre, and he said he "is a vibe" when you don't think so. Not only are these guys annoying, they were both traded. They can't be that good...can they? The thing about these guys is they are ultra-relentless. They will never quit. They both have chips on their shoulders the size of dump trucks. Neither USED to play D. They are now and definitely will have to this series. With Brunson, he has to mix it up and can't get tunnel vision. I call it that "Kobe Bryant". It can get you to the upper floors but not the top floors. With Burton, he can't get too far into clowning or trolling. Some people you don' t play with. You don't play with Brunson, or Dante or Hart or McBride, cause they will come see about you. Now Kleber is out. Who will step up. I see Exum, aka Young Diaw and Hardy. Hardy is disappointing right now. He didn't build on last year. He's not as explosive as last year. If he got hurt, I get it. If he is just not maximizing his opportunity, in sports, regret eats you from the inside, not for weeks or months, but decades. Get busy young fella! Jimmy Butler...woulda beat Boston...They need to take "woulda" out of the basketball dictionary. That sounds like a fan. Difference between Jaylen Brown and Jimmy Himmy? Brown worked on his left hand. Jimmy felt he didn't need to. Just an observation. Woulda beat...Derrick White called Cap. Buckle up! These young cats are here!! Old guys can't wait for the Olympics!

Was this due to Cleveland not having finished the series?

did Joker get his duplicate clone he wanted after game 1? If not I think its gonna me Minnesota. Jokic knows he didnt play against a team having a once in a lifetime game..he knows thats what he's facing.

Two places....Chet

Chet can be in two places at once seen em do it

Big reason I watch jj is because he clearly watches the games. American sports media is terrible at the moment. I’m pretty sure chuck, shaq & Kenny haven’t watched one Mavs game during these playoffs. They’ll be in for a shock when the results start coming in cause we all know they’ll be watching highlights. Maybe.
