Why are the Kyrie and Luka Doncic duo ain't working?

[Lebron23]

They just lost to the Sixers, and are just 1 game ahead of the lakers

Louie it's not a perfect roster but I think some of it is just a bad luck. They lost to the Cleveland Cavalier on a last seconds buzzer beater by Max Strus. In their four point lose to the Sixers they shoot 8 less free throws than Philly, if that was reverse they might win. If those games go the other way they will be something like 10-2 in their last 12 so I will not write them off yet.

Luka is lazy and selfish.

Kidd is dumb.

Perfect usage of "ain't"

Luka is lazy and selfish.

Kidd is dumb.

And Kyrie has had a couple missed shots or bad plays in the final moments of recent games.

The team as a whole doesn't defend hard enough. Offensively the pairing does work, everyone else doesn't have much output but those two are efficient even at high volume so it works. It's the defense.

Really the core of Dallas issues is wasted resources.

They let Brunson go for nothing and traded Porzingis for Spencer Dinwiddie (no longer on the team, was salary fodder for Irving trade) and Davis Bertrans (who?). The raw asset waste there has them at an overall talent disadvantage. Even if you call Irving for Brunson an equal replacement the loss of value of Porzingis is immense on paper. You look at what the Celtics get out of him and can only wonder how the things he can do somehow didn't help Dallas. He protects the rim and is a great shooter by the standards of his position while also an athletic finisher, just not that strong. But they decided he was worthless and traded him for possibly a fifth of his worth. Some very bad management has taken place.

That said they are still a likely playoff
team and aside from one team the West is better than the East. As a duo they aren't bad unless your standard is championship or bust.

Nice missed lay up on the fast break. God forbid you pass to the guy running up the floor with you, ****ing moron.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I'm under the impression that James Harden is one of your favorite players. If that is the case, why hate on one extremely ball dominant superstar that doesn't play any defense and love the other? Aside from Harden's free throw baiting they're very similar.

What the ****, chill out you psycho

[SATAN]

Don't bother passing it. Just get your stats up. That'll do the trick. Yay, nearly 40 point triple double while almost being being the sole cause for the L. Good for you.

Satan turning into smoke

[SATAN]

At least prime Westbrook was entertaining.

[SATAN]

And there's your triple dub. I hope you're proud of yourself. Bench this clown and get Exum back in.
