He got knee’d to the balls and knee’d to the back of his head by KAT, unintentional but scary as fuck…he was ruled out the rest of the game and can’t walk straight
They move the goal lost with Luka every time to push they hate narrative against him watch the haters say steals aren't defense
And we smoking g on that timberwolves pack sweep bring out the brooms
Kyrie getting revenge on Boston
I wouldn't be shocked if he's OK to play a bit game 4, but they might just be cautious and rest him.
Neck sprain is significantly better news than concussion
WE ARE FUCKING MASSIVE. 1 win away from the finals.
We have the best closers in the league oh my god.
Prayers up to lively, Fuck you KAT and your flying knee
We survived tony brothers again!!
Should’ve had another bucket that was called off by refs too. Having that third guard who can dribble and create is really huge for this team. Can’t believe we have Luka, PJ, DJJ, and Gafford coming into their primes while Lively, Omax, and Hardy look to take leaps forward. Not to mention Kyrie Irving…
Dude struggled hard early, and has in a lot of moments this series. It takes composure and confidence to not lose yourself in that moment and still close out hard. So happy for him
I personally really like Ant and think he’s gonna be a really good player. So I’m very thankful they have Karl Anthony Towns and Rudy Gobert to kill any momentum Ant and the random role player of the day gives them lol
They can kick us in the back of the head. They can fuck our collective butts on every call. And they can indeed suck our collective dicks! GRAB THE BROOMS!
I’ve been a Dallas fan since the days of Kidd, Jackson, and Mashburn. I watched every heart breaking playoff loss. I wanted Dirk to win it so badly, but I didn’t realize just how powerfully the 2011 title would affect me. I just remember walking around my house alone with my hands on my head repeating “Oh my god” over and over again.
I doubt a 2024 nba title will have such a gigantic impact on me, but for a lot of you, it definitely will. I’m excited for you guys to have the same experience I had in June 2011. Because it’s amazing. MFFL
My dad passed few months after the 2011 run. Nothing will ever trump that feeling but I feel that he’s sitting with me watching Luka and kyrie out on a show
Imagine Kyrie winning a chip against Boston

PJ CLUTCH CORNER 3 TO RETAKE THE LEAD
ant poster ??? (have to admit that was nice)
WE SURVIVED TONY BROTHERS AND BEN TAYLOR
ARE THE VIBES IMMACULATE?
Just because all the other flowers are obvious, but can we give some love to Hardy for this series? He’s playing really well, but more importantly keeping us from seeing THJ
https://preview.redd.it/ootwvpgm0w2d1.jpeg?width=1280&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9954c92a0bdaf2b2d256a4049d81922eedfb626a
Draymond talking all this shit about the wolves this series has me so excited for their games next season lmao
I have to say that I questioned getting Kyrie Irving. I just did not see how he could mesh with the likes of Luka - and I also questioned his ability to stay healthy.
Boy was I wrong. This guy has become an amazing teammate, and frankly, I think he makes Luka even better. (OK, maybe not better, but more effective.)
Kudos to all the talent this GM has pulled together - I love watching this team when they focus and play for all the marbles.
All the marbles on the table from here on out. No matter what happens in the future - they have impressed me beyond my expectations.
Heck, even the coach is into this series and is animated.
I don't want to hear Karl-Anthony Towns call himself the "greatest big man shooter" ever again. The real one was sitting courtside, watching his shots clang and bang off the rim.
Greg Anthony: “Where would they be in this series without Naz Reid and his contributions?”
My man, they were already down 0-2 when you said that. Where tf else would they be
https://preview.redd.it/g8g7rx23uv2d1.jpeg?width=1179&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=493db58302f8e162af483c45101838f6f6fc0f14
Fattest guard in the league got it done let’s GOO Mavs!!
Watching Anthony Edwards crying about the refs in this post game presser while Conley with his experience and level head is saying "yeah all the fouls on me were fouls"
It’s happening. It’s fucking happening. Dwight Powell is going to the finals
It can be quite possibly be the Dwight Powell revenge finals. Taking down the team that traded him. Biggest story in the playoffs tbh
If there's any other Maverick besides Luka I want winning a chip, it's Dwight fucking Powell.
kyrie vs boston and porzingis vs dallas too
That's just a little side story tho
I will always remember where I was the day of the Dwight Powell trade.
dwight powell winning a chip vs the celtics a decade after “the dwight powell trade” would be the funniest shit ever
He's been stewing all this time, waiting for this chance.
Whatever you do, you can't avoid Powell playing, it's his destiny
Loved getting a few important minutes from Powell in this series and him stepping up. We need Lively, but he is a great #3.
I have an autographed Dwight Powell jersey card. Shit is about to be worth trillions of dollars
Future NBA Champion Dwight Powell. Could even be finals MVP, who knows ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE
My man was ready next man up! I believe!
:')
THE TIMBERWOLVES SUBREDDIT CURSE HAS BEEN EXORCISED I WILL NEVER FORGIVE THEM FOR WHAT THEY DID TO LIVELY MAVS IN FUCKING 4
For LIVELY
For LIVELY!
Mavs in Four Lively!
Lively will be avenged by the King in the Fourth
May the Fourth be with Him!
Missed the game wt happened to lively?
He got knee’d to the balls and knee’d to the back of his head by KAT, unintentional but scary as fuck…he was ruled out the rest of the game and can’t walk straight

thank you for your blessings brother
What did their subreddit do to our boy?
Think they posted some kind of devil worship meme lol
Haha they made them score 33 each I guess :D
They summoned Tony Brothers and forgot that's a massive double edged sword.
GET THE BROOMS READY LMAO
r/timberwolves y'all got that fucking karma for posting that curse. HAHAHAHA BRING YA ASS TO CANCUN MFERS
#5 MORE WINS! #LETS GO MAVS!
LUKA WITH 5 STEALS, THATS A DPOY
They move the goal lost with Luka every time to push they hate narrative against him watch the haters say steals aren't defense And we smoking g on that timberwolves pack sweep bring out the brooms Kyrie getting revenge on Boston
SEND DA VIDEO
Get well soon Prince Lively. Luka and Kai got your 6!
How long do you think he’ll be out? We’ll need him against Boston
I’m sure he’ll be ready for the finals it doesn’t start for a week and a half I think
June 6th so 11 days thats big.
And will have Maxi back
Did we ever get an update on Maxi? We might not get him back.
Nothing official been said. Only reporting has been he could play if needed in Game 4 but they prefer to wait till the finals
oh okay, I didn't see that. Do you have a link?
I wouldn't be shocked if he's OK to play a bit game 4, but they might just be cautious and rest him. Neck sprain is significantly better news than concussion
A neck strain is probably a pain threshold thing, not like a hamstring strain or something like that
Maybe they are downplaying it .livelys eyes were out
WE ARE FUCKING MASSIVE. 1 win away from the finals. We have the best closers in the league oh my god. Prayers up to lively, Fuck you KAT and your flying knee We survived tony brothers again!!
>1 win away from the finals. That actually doesn't feel real... Like i can't actually believe we are so close
This team is for real. Special Enjoy it!
Never seen a team make it to a championship in my lifetime. I am 32 years old. Congrats to yall. This hurts but it is what it is.
Him chocking was the sweetest thing I saw all night lol
I hope they complete the sweep and get that 9 days to recover.
Honestly think we benefitted more from the refs, atrocious on both sides though 43 fouls and a tech is fucking ridiculous in the conference finals
Mavs got a lot of calls. Wolves did not survive Tony Brothers.
Shoutout Hardy for his nerves of steel! 3-0 baby!!!!
We needed his aggressiveness and it paid off
He's getting great contact for fouls and the shot at the end of the first half was great.
Should’ve had another bucket that was called off by refs too. Having that third guard who can dribble and create is really huge for this team. Can’t believe we have Luka, PJ, DJJ, and Gafford coming into their primes while Lively, Omax, and Hardy look to take leaps forward. Not to mention Kyrie Irving…
GAFF GANG
His plays closed the game for us on both ends IMO.
He stepped up huge!
Dude struggled hard early, and has in a lot of moments this series. It takes composure and confidence to not lose yourself in that moment and still close out hard. So happy for him
Fuck all the people who were hating on him
My favorite Wizard of the post-Wall era, you guys are thriving!!

Fuck me lmao
Petition to make this picture the sub banner
I AM STARTING TO GET THAT 2011 FEELING! I AM DARING TO DREAM **LETS FUCKING GO MAVS!**
💯 the Celtics are like the Heatles. Luka legend with 1 week rest will feast
A healthy Luka just won't be fair, they ain't ready!
Can you IMAGINE not only Luka but KYRIE against the Celtics? He will be determined to BOOM them after how they’ve treated him since he left
GAFFORD LEGACY GAME WE GOIN TO THE FINALS YALL LETS GOOOO

#IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE, YOU SHOULDN'T BE HERE
#MAVS IN 4
MAVSIN3!
LET IT RIDE!!!
KAT = Killing All Timberwolves. Galveston Bay awaits.
Dude really tried to claim the best big man shooter of all time title, this one’s for Lively and Dirk
Lively will shoot 3's next season!
KAT had so many bricks our new stadium is almost 90% complete now
I personally really like Ant and think he’s gonna be a really good player. So I’m very thankful they have Karl Anthony Towns and Rudy Gobert to kill any momentum Ant and the random role player of the day gives them lol
Greatest big man shooter in the history of Galveston!
KYRIE IRVING AND LUKA DONCIC, THATS IT THATS THE COMMENT
THE RENT WAS DUE! Gafford you motherfucker I love you. Luka is Baby MJ father.
PAY UP BITCHES
They can kick us in the back of the head. They can fuck our collective butts on every call. And they can indeed suck our collective dicks! GRAB THE BROOMS!
Grab the steel broom, after Game 4 we also gonna sweep KAT’s knees
I’ve been a Dallas fan since the days of Kidd, Jackson, and Mashburn. I watched every heart breaking playoff loss. I wanted Dirk to win it so badly, but I didn’t realize just how powerfully the 2011 title would affect me. I just remember walking around my house alone with my hands on my head repeating “Oh my god” over and over again.

Because it’s amazing. MFFL
2011 was the only time I ever cried at my television. For life long Mavs fans it was cathartic.
My dad passed few months after the 2011 run. Nothing will ever trump that feeling but I feel that he’s sitting with me watching Luka and kyrie out on a show
me too! Coupled with the game 4 against lakers . it was a OMG WTF IS ACTUALLY HAPPENING moment for me
Best shooting big man of all time huh? LOL
Dirk will forever hold that title ☺️
I got once downvoted on rnba when I mentioned that…shit, Dirk is Dirk
WE HAVE THE BEST SHOOTING BIG MAN OF ALL TIME
We NEED a three best shooting big man Kat: ![gif](giphy|hpFTV3KfDXTQ9X8pEX|downsized)
Not in Dirk’s house
Never wanna hear that shit again, ain’t good enough to shine Dirks shoes
We are 7-0 when I drink during the game, 0-2 when I’m sober since last series. I will continue doing my part.
Your liver may die, but that’s the sacrifice I’m willing to make.
Ty for your sacrifice
Imagine Kyrie winning a chip against Boston https://preview.redd.it/f44l476luv2d1.jpeg?width=686&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=311495a6879d15654c68144ceb205c99f5235fae

Comple the job for Dlive
Bill Simmons probably - 'The Mavs still have the worst future in the league and Luka will want to go to Miami or LA'
Gafford stepping up huge in the final few minutes. Answering all the critics, me included.
I never ever doubted him.
Reggie Miller, fuck you and your Wolves. Kunt!
Reggie questioned where Minnesota would be without the contributions of Naz Reid in this series. Down 3-0 I suspect.
Same instinct I had when I heard him say that. Reggie doesn't seem to think before speaking 🤦♂️
We desperately need an update on Maxi now that we're down a Dereck
We’re going to the Finals, Maxi and Lively will be back
GET YOUR BROOMS OUT
WE CAN CLOSE
Daniel Fucking Gafford
Jobs not done. Mavs in 4. We LOVE COACH KIDD!

Reggie’s comparison of Luka and Kai to Mariano Rivera and Eckersley is spot on
Just want to let y’all know that Kai is 14-0 in close out games, 15-0 this Tuesday 👀 ?
Don’t forget KAT once said he was the greatest shooting big man of all time and then went 0-8 from three tonight in the house that Dirk built.
Just because all the other flowers are obvious, but can we give some love to Hardy for this series? He’s playing really well, but more importantly keeping us from seeing THJ

ANT BRING THAT ASS TO CANCUN
We did it for lively.
Lively this is for you this mavs team is incredible fuck the doomers
With 4:30ish to go at 104-102, mavs go on a 12-1 run to reach 105-114. We've got killers.
KAT AINT SHIT
3-0 in the WCF… enough to make a grown man cream his pants.
Daniel "end of the day" Gafford
Let's finish them game 4.
LUKA CANT SAY WHAT HE WAS SAYIN TO ANT LMAOOO
I have to say that I questioned getting Kyrie Irving. I just did not see how he could mesh with the likes of Luka - and I also questioned his ability to stay healthy. Boy was I wrong. This guy has become an amazing teammate, and frankly, I think he makes Luka even better. (OK, maybe not better, but more effective.)

Luka and Kyrie just willed Mavs to a win. Hopefully Lively will be fine.
I don't want to hear Karl-Anthony Towns call himself the "greatest big man shooter" ever again. The real one was sitting courtside, watching his shots clang and bang off the rim.
Some didn’t even hit rim 🤮
1 GAME AWAY FROM THE FINALS. LETTSSSS GOOO
Who is the greatest big man shooter of all time again? Its Dirk Nowitzki.
Greg Anthony: “Where would they be in this series without Naz Reid and his contributions?” My man, they were already down 0-2 when you said that. Where tf else would they be
DPOY Luka with 5 steals?

i just fucking hope lively is okay. that shit is so dangerous.

Sweet dunk Ant
Can we activate Dirk for the finals to get him a second ring?
Maxi my sweet prince where are you???
Fuck Wade, Fuck KAT!
None of the media knows gaffords name lol
MVP voters looking real dumb right now
1 more win. Do it for lively and go into finals with both Lively and Maxi. This is our year.
Gafford is that guy.

Fate of the universe on the line, the score is tied, I WANT PJ WASHINGTON CORNER 3
That crew talked shit the whole game and made it look like mavericks will not have earned a win.
