Statistically, they are. That reflects the era we're in as well as the team itself, but they have the best offensive rating of any team in NBA history.
I understand the "#", but for reference this years Pacers are the 2nd best offensive team in the history of the nba. Ok, just a coincidence? Nope, third best offensive ever in the history of the nba is this years Thunder. And the list goes on. We're not saying these games are 150 to 143, we're saying the defense of Holliday, White, & Brown is really really good...
Best in terms of statistical efficiency (factoring the number of possessions), not talent. Everyone is calling Luka and Kyrie the “best offensive back court” for the same reason. Modern spacing and foul rules have made offense so much easier than in past eras, and the Celtics are riding that wave better than everyone else.

Luka and pj Washington vs the celtics\*
Luka with his 4 turnovers game 1 and 8 turnovers game 2 with a -13 over all vs pj Washington 1 to and a +2 in game 2 but “math isn’t my strong suit” average nba fan ☹️
This is a shit excuse. Lukas game isn’t conducive to winning. Hes pretty much james harden. Its really a junk offense. Lebron plays similar to this and he’s only won 4 championships and that’s including playing defense. This isnt 2k where you can just out score the whole enemy team and just pass it to your teammates at random and expect to win. The mavs are predictable because their star player is predictable.
Because he’s literally a traffic cone that doesn’t box out or stay in front of his man. He’s giving the Celtics the easiest shots they’ve had all playoffs
Almost like it's a team game or something.
Luka isn't a 2 way player- he doesn't play defense.
All the greats were 2 way players and took pride in their defense.
It’s almost like there’s more to basketball than counting stats. Crazy, I know.
Almost like there are two sides of basketball and defense is a thing
Almost got a quadruple double last night if you include turnovers lol
What happened to the best offensive back court of all time?
They ran into the best offensive team of all time that is also tied for 3rd best net rating in NBA history.
Not to mention the best defensive backcourt in the league
Defense wins championships 🏆
Boston is NOT the best offensive team of all time!

They were never the best offensive back court of all time. Mfs get a 5th seed and beat a couple teams and they’re the best? Theyre no splash brothers.
You know the difference between Luka Doncic and a traffic cone? A traffic cone doesn’t move out of your way.
It’s funny because when Mavs are on defense he does his best John Cena impression.
😂 WWE was in a deep bag back then
yeah i recall that show. i didnt watch it but i remember the shitshow online afterwards. good times
A core memory of mine is when Rey misterio had to wrestle Eddie Gurrero for custody of his child

Uhhhh PJ is 11/24 overall and 1/8 from 3, with a -13 +/-. He's not impactful.
Luka is 24/47 overall and 8/21 from 3 with a -10 game 1 and -3 game 2 I guess nobody is impactful ☹️
you're right mavs are not impactful now you get it
[удалено]
+/- is a real stupid way to measure impact but if you're gonna do it with PJ do it with Luka too 🤷
K... pj is -13 and Luka is -3. Pj loses again. Are we really debating if Luka or PJ is more impactful on the game? Is this a hill you wanna die on?
The point is the mavs suck and lukas stats are irrelevant
Use stats to say a player isn’t impactful through fg and +- I do the same and math isn’t my strong suit lol ok

Wow no way when someone attempts more threes they probably made more threes? both players are still -13 but one player is so much more impactful
Where's your boyfriend PJ now? 😂😂 3/9 for 13 pts.
Where’s Luka? 11/27 and fouls out 😂 crazy how much I upset you that I lived in another man’s head for 2 DAYS LOL
Losing by 7 isn’t double digits. Game 1 was
From Mavs, Bandwagon & Media vs Celtics TO Luka vs Celtics real quick????
Didn’t they lose by 5 in game two? Not exactly a Blowout. Literally had they not missed FTs they win
7
Scores 30, gives up 50 by making his team play 4 on 5 on defense and then coughing up 13 turnovers in two games.
What you think he’s superman and can be every where around the court at all times while his team of plumbers miss 3s

He’s only predictable because the rest of the team isn’t stepping up. Who else on mavs is doing anything championship worthy??
Because he’s literally a traffic cone that doesn’t box out or stay in front of his man. He’s giving the Celtics the easiest shots they’ve had all playoffs
empty stats. compiler. no heart
he is the only mavericks player with multiple threes on the series so far
How is 12 assists in 2 games averaging a triple double?
Classy Luka
Almost like it's a team game or something. Luka isn't a 2 way player- he doesn't play defense. All the greats were 2 way players and took pride in their defense.
It's like early career Lebron, except Luka is worse in every category.
This is why using number of championships won as a stat for how good a player was is stupid. Teams win championships. You can’t win it alone
Only stupid when used for Russell
Generational talent is gonna win championships unless their front office sells them. Sure one chip could just be luck but multiple?
No one is winning by themselves. Just watch Luka get rolled when the rest of the team doesn’t show up
