Dallas Game 3 ML

This isn’t a sweep

i'm jumping ship luka is maimed & cant defend. Holiday for MVP is my play.

@joshfactor

 That plus 600 is juicy - why is taintum still even money?

Absolutely agreed 

Lol if you thinking Luka being maimed has anything to do with his defense...

Dude could be fully healthy and he's still a traffic cone on defense.  Always was, always will be.

Mavs play zone defense so that he can just sit in the corner and not play defense, and use all his energy on offense.  Boston isn't letting them do that this series.

@bobmaloogatimesfive

 im lost as to why tatum is the favorite given he is no-showing, again.

& im sketch about this G3 spot. There has been none of the offensive flow that carried them to the finals. Celtics -9.5 +340 is looking tasty to me. They seem to be in command of the floor with Luka being invisible on D.

GL on your action.

Not saying he should get the MVP or not, but it's not all about scoring.  Only casuals think it matters if someone puts up 40 points in a game.

Luka can put up 40 and still lose - they wanna glaze him about how many points he puts up after a loss and compare him to Michael Jordan - but Jordan was a monster on defense and also won.

I believe this can likely be a sweep. It's a bad matchup for the Mavs, Luka isn't 100% and has to shoulder too much of the offensive load, Kyrie is getting locked up, and the role players are unable to contribute anything meaningful. Mavs have yet to find the adjustments to open up the lobs and corner 3's.

Not sure what reasons there are to back the Mavs in any game moving forward, other than "we believe they should win one". For what reason? They've shown nothing.

Porzingus most likely out game 3 AND Tony Brothers is reffing…

Watch the EXTENDER Scott Foster come in game 4. I’ calling it here. 

NO SWEEP

Porzingis will likely play I think actually. Just saw a post about him saying he will die out there instead of missing G3 and Mazzulla also had said he isn't worried about Porzingis' injury at all.

@CalBear2009

 The beat writer for Boston just came out and said Port will definitely not play. I guess that's why Dallas just jumped to 2.5

@CalBear2009

Those quotes are from right after the game. The press conference a few hours ago Mazulla said it was a serious injury. 

“Kristaps Porzingis suffered torn medial retinaculum; considered day-to-day”. Even if he could potentially have a chance to play game 3 not sure why they would risk it so soon.
