Fun fact: Booker had 51 pts in 31 mins earlier this season. If he scored at the same rate he did that day and played the same amount of minutes as Donovan Mitchell’s 71 pt game (50 mins), he would’ve had 82 pts breaking Kobe’s 81.

;
1.) Joel Embiid
2.) Nikola Jokic
3.) Giannis Antetokounmpo
4.) Shai Gilgeous-Alexander
5.) Luka Doncic
6.) Jayson Tatum
7.) Anthony Edwards
8.) Tyrese Haliburton
9.) Domantas Sabonis
10.) Anthony Davis
Stephen A saying Shai leads the league in assists and that’s why he’s picking him for MVP would be hilarious… until you remember this guy actually fucking votes for the award
Jimmy Butler playing on 4 teams in 5 years - “LMAO Jimmy is a savage he’s got that dog in him”
Kyrie Irving playing on 4 teams in 12 years - “saboteur… everywhere he goes turns to absolute shit!”
I usually don’t buy into Luka being treated unfairly by the media… Superstars always face unfair criticisms
but the response to him scoring the 4th most points ever in a game is bizarre
and it does suck as a fan
instead of celebration and praise it’s crying and complaining
Sources: Kyrie Irving has reached out to Lakers star LeBron James in attempts to see if James would come to Dallas. Irving is a free agent this offseason.
the Dallas Mavericks left the draft with:
- the best non-Wemby rim protector in the draft
- one of the most versatile defenders in the draft
- Bertans off the roster
- access to the full MLE
- two great young prospects
delusional summer is back
Luka Doncic is getting dragged up and down the timeline for dropping 35 on 60% shooting
he’s in a different tier than every other young dude in the league
James Harden, Kyrie Irving, and Kevin Durant all wanted to get tf away from the Nets in the span of a year and i’m supposed to believe it was all Kyrie’s fault?
@tim_cato
thank you… this is the part ppl don’t get
the elite mid range guys still take them
you just don’t see the 4th guy on teams take the worst shot you’ve ever seen anymore
Embiid hurt his knee in the 2nd quarter against the Pacers but made sure he played enough to keep his 30 point streak alive in a blowout loss
now, minutes before one of the most anticipated matchups of the season, Embiid vs Jokic in Denver, he’s out
bad for the fans man
THE THREE DIFFERENT TYPES OF LUKA DONCIC:
1. Smiling and laughing - he's going off
2. Getting into fights with random role players - he's going off
3. Yelling at the refs - it's going to be a stinker
The Memphis Grizzlies have informed pending free agent Dillon Brooks that he will not be brought back under any circumstances, league sources say.

:
don't overthink this... Luka Doncic is the MVP:
- one of the greatest seasons offensively ever
- how Luka transformed into an unguardable force
- Luka's historic two month stretch that saved the Mavs
- how his improved defense unlocks everything
fun video!!! link below!!!
“Luka’s not going to be able to score like that on this defense”
*one week later*
“they’re actually letting Luka score to tire him out”
rinse and repeat lol
