Dubs in 5

Assuming no injuries Warriors in 6 or 7....i'll say 7 since i wanna see a game 7.

 

[ALonelyDad]

Warriors in 6, Curry has to play better but overall I like their role players better. Luka will get his regardless.

 

[Ohene]

Golden State has no inside presence. Mavs going to be living in the paint. Dray will try his best with Luka but....

Beantown vs Dallas in June

that didnt stop them from beating Memphis

Dray has the strength to hold Doncic down a bit. And we have the bodies to match up with everyone else.

Expect a lot of sub 200 pt total games

 

[HabitualChiller]

Luka might average 35 this series. I'm taking Mavs in 6.

 

[fifth column]

GSW in 6

I'm seeing Curry being forced to play defense and getting worn out. He was able to take plays off with the Grizzlies
Warriors are susceptible to fast paced teams. Mavs are a great full court fastbreak team
Like you said Warriors have no size in the paint. Mavs struggled with Ayton until he went soft. Mavs don't have that problem against the Warriors

Mavericks in 6

nikka stop it


The Nuggets with their 2nd and 3rd options wouldnt be the damn 6th seed. They made easy work of a 6 seed like they were supposed to.

The Grizzlies without Ja are still a hell of a team but they were up 2-1 even with him playing


:Camby:

No shyt they wouldn’t be a 6th seed. That’s the point. They got to feast on an injury depleted team. And you take away the best player from a team and they gonna be significantly worse. Especially seeing the way Ja destroyed the Warriors in game 2. He was easily the best player on either side.

Dubs outchea cakewalking once again

This shyt is lining up even better than 2015 for these dubs.

This team played like shyt the last 20 games and their reward is a

Nuggets squad missing their 1st and 2nd options
Grizzlies squad that had their best player go down mid series
A green and inexperienced Mavs squad who are just gonna be happy to be there

Unbelievable

The cognitive dissonance begins early…start building the narrative now to help you cope

So if they wouldnt be a 6th seed with them, why the fukk u using it against them :cosby:

If they played this season, the Jazz or somebody is the 6th seed, and yall wouldbe juelzed then too

 

[Stone]

Dallas is the better team with the best player(and it’s very clear) but the Warriors got enough heart and smarts to take a game or 2

had them in the finals depending on Luka’s health going back to the Utah series and he looks ready

lol youre an idiot.

what hes saying is that at full strength denver is prolly a 4th seed or a 3rd seed.

in either case...it means that the Warriors would be playing a team like Dallas in round one or Utah

you seriously dont think GS would beat Utah???

and if it was Dallas, well we are playing them now right (W/ DONCIC...who missed 2 games vs Utah) ? So who cares?

you play who is in front of you. The Warriors were a #3 seed playing a #6 seed and they bodied them. They woulda likely bodied anyone in the first round (including Dallas who wouldnt have had Luka for two games)

 

[Ohene]

So if they wouldnt be a 6th seed with them, why the fukk u using it against them :cosby:

If they played this season, the Jazz or somebody is the 6th seed, and yall wouldbe juelzed then too

its ironic cause the Jazz couldnt beat a Lukaless Dallas Mavs twice.

do injuries matter or not???

 

[NoMorePie]

If Luka can somehow someway beat the warriors then go ahead and hand him the 2023 MVP
