1. Men I feel Luka soft or kidd baby sitting he plays against a sorry team but duck that OKC game

2. Someone definitely using AI to write these episode summaries.

3. The Mavs are gonna be shifting to the 2nd gear starting games 16-30.

4. I’m the one that screamed unblock slightly right before you started recording 🙂

5. Luka looked much more spry, light on his feet and engaged tonight. Hopefully he's ready to start ballin now.

6. Almost like when Luka is “in command of the offense” the team thrives. As opposed to what they were doing the first 10 games.

7. “do you want to win the cup” yes, they’re regular season games of course i want to win every regular season game

8. What’s good about these last 2 games isn’t just that Mavs have won, but a lot of the west has been losing. Rockets, okc, grizzlies, nuggets, suns, kings, warriors, ect have either lost one or two games. Mavs are much more healthy than anyone else, so they need to take advantage while some other teams fall

9. Mavs should just have those ole mavs green as the court

10. After watching it for the second time, I feel this team now plays like a basketball team who has a goal but now centered on two dudes doing all!! This gives me confidence and joy never felt watching them play! If keep going like this and have everyone contribute to victory then we took the main and initial step in beating Boston if we get there this time!! Kyrie had to learn this the hard way long before and now I guess Luka has realized it a bit and try to turn around and join the team in real way. Hope, he wont forget half way season!! After getting up a lot then two you generational talent could stat pat and have your number beside a win which is the main goal of this while 48 min running!!! Good job brothers and keep it up!!!

    And , remember Luka if we keep doing this then the chance of you winning an MVP will increase keeps you away from begging and crying for it like Embeed did!! This will leads to higher seat while you having same number creates an impression of a real MVP!! And it eaves no room for voters
    try not to give it to you!!!

11. Glad they won in such a convincing way finally shooting a high percentage from 3 . Good to see klay naji and barns all have good games and luka moving alittle better after a game off.

12. Wheres all the trade Luka at now? Efficient game by him with 3 steals. Cmon guys dont run off now, tell me how you wanted to trade Luka and how "the teams better without him".

13. NICK, CHECK OUT KLAYS SOUNDBYTE ABOUT AS A CAPTAIN HE GONNA NAVIGATE ROUGH WATERS STAYING FOCUSED. USE THAT AS A MIX WITH LUKAS BELIEVE BYTE!!!!

14. You know what the intro music has grown on me i’ll say it

15. This team is starting to finally click

16. Lukas incredible but he'll never be MVP

17. The difference would be larger if luka didnt play. Kyrie was going off and the role players were more comfortable when kyrie had the ball.

18. Luka played well tonight and played with pace. Made quick decisions

19. I don't mind if they will rest Luka every now and then as long KAI will play. Healthy and Rested Luka is locked in defensively.

20. Just get Luka into the playoffs healthy. The man is a generational player. You see it in every one of his passes.

21. Slightly thinks he is dressin nice but NICK always has that shit on w his beautiful iconic gray jacket

22. Bring back the old let it ride music

23. Neckbeard Luka has always been an exceptional version of Luka. Not as good as the Goated skinny headband neck beard Luka but still an MVP level player. Now that the mullet is gone expect to see Luka play better. Mullet Luka was by far the worst version of Luka we’ve seen to date.

24. All-star chance of him is improving!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Kyrie has the potential to be an MVP. He is a sure all-star; please don’t act like this is his first time trying for it! He has already been an all-star eight times. If Luka weren’t on the team, or if he were not the primary option, Kyrie would be taking ten more shots per game with the same efficiency. This incident would likely lead him to have the second-highest scoring average and the highest efficiency, which would qualify him for MVP consideration. Right now, he is the MVP of the Mavericks. Trust me, if he recognizes during games that his performance sometimes overshadows Luka instead of feeling jealous, he could slow down to allow Luka to shine brighter, which would help him gain more recognition and votes. What I’m saying may differ from what others believe, and it seems like some have chosen their words carefully to avoid offending Luka!

25. Let's be honest, Kidd left Luka on the court to make his status as much as possible… Anyway, in this form, Luka already lost the mvp race this season, even though he was the no. 1. Luka played to be ready for next game…

26. If they win against Denver, the mavs are officially back. Great game and good to see Luka looking like Luka again.

27. They played the injured pelicans they're supposed to win.

28. Bro said kyrie didn’t do much production wise bro was +28 led the team in assist Luka only had 16 pts compared to kyrie 18 going into the fourth up 35😂😂😂😂 but he’s “hurt”

29. As yall said the Spurs without Wemby were bad they beat OKC 🤣🤣🤣

30. I'm sorry but the main factor is slightly… When he's at a games we win.

    We've been clamoring Kidd to let Slightly be part of the crowd rotation, glad to see he's warming up to it

31. Ohh so now we have "Pelicans", but we didn't had "OKC" last game? OK, I got it.

32. Once Naji hits that first 3…the AAC is going to erupt.

33. That is the game we need to play every time. Dominating on All Levels Luka Kai Klay hitting on all cylinders and making the game look easy…. Effortless win I sense the wind of change incoming…..🤔

34. The 3 headed monster of LuKLai played great.

35. Tatum has been extremely clutch this season and plays defense. Same with AD. Why wouldn’t he win mvp over Luka? Sometimes you guys need to step back and view the whole league.

36. Locked on politics is hilarious

37. I’m not gonna be impressed by the Mavericks until they beat more good teams like Boston Cleveland or even a Lakers team. I just want to see them back to last season’s last 15 games mode.

38. Very nice and complete game by the team. So glad Klay showed up. Naji is balling right now. And it's nice to see several folks on the team who can handle the ball a little bit.
