Shaq, Kenny, Ernie & Draymond React to Luka Doncic's Stellar Game 5 Versus the Clippers | NBA o

uh, thanks for staying up with us on a night that had four playoff

game

s, two on tnt, two on nba tv and concluded with this one where the home team has struggled mightily with kawhi lender trying to change all that against luca and the mavs, but man

draymond

. I don't know what you do when you go up against this cat but man he was hot 19 in the first quarter, look how he looked in the first two

game

s where he was putting any defender he wanted against him and taking advantage of those shifts when he plays like that and then he also gets 14 assists.

As for those assists, many guys didn't score. Tim Hardaway had 20. So he dominated the game, yeah, just guys in double figures on the Dallas side, Kawhi Leonard with the back line. drive, you know, you know you've got to get a guy, you've got to go out there and yeah, they did a great job of staying home, but Lucas' one-on-one is still too good for most of the defense. Kawhi knocks down the corner three at Half Dallas up 56-54 Clippers look to get their rhythm a little in the third quarter and would take the lead but he's going to make it, yes, but then look what the Mavs did, a streak of 25-5 that they put together, hey, little one, stay.

Back there it seems like every time the Clippers got close, like you said before, they just ran away led by this guy here, why are there so many of the greats so far down the court that he doesn't want now that they don't want to? switch 42 8 and 14. paul george with the reverse there as they took the lead, but luca, who is hard glass 95 89, the count page, difficult shot and goes 16-4, the clipper race spoke about the need for tim hardaway came back on the court and he knocks down those three, the speed on that pass right there, yeah, that's why the brazilians were able to make that shot.

He didn't have a great game, but it was a great shot. Kawhi and a run of nine nothing cuts the lead to one that he can take. me through this okay here man he makes a great steal when you shoot forward you know this is the position this is a good and challenging layup you know lucas is not a shot blocker and then he steps back towards you he is giving you the sign of the saint grail and you just didn't take advantage of it three point game in kauai air mail's that three ball and um mark cuban rejoices as the dallas mavericks continue this trend, this as a visitor, the visiting team has won every game in the series and they take this 105 a 100 donchits 42. 8 rebounds, playoff career high 14 assists um, he's not sitting at home after his guarantee, he hasn't been home all day no, he hasn't been home all day, yeah, I'm trying to think about what exactly that guarantee was the maps will lose four in a row and uh that's not happening um wow uh okay, I'm going to look for an explanation from you on how this happens, but tell me from your experience why are you going back to 95 um and you're the lowest seed so you have to open up in san antonio and then your series looks a lot like this 100 uh when you come out we won two games in san antonio uh we just came back from a great series super excited year of mr mvp uh this is the year he didn't get the mvp and went to san antonio so we went there and then there's a natural human aspect of relaxing no matter how much If you want to get your adrenaline pumping, you say I'm going home and then when they win the third game that puts the pressure back on you so now we're back on a level playing field they beat us there and I just remember it and um coming out.

On the plane we got off the team playing San Antonio and the first thing I said was man, it's good to be home and then I didn't know that would have any impact. I was just trying to motivate myself, yeah, and dream. He said man I'm saying I'm glad you said I made it I remember we're good here so we carried on he did he keem was similar to vernon was vernon and the rest of the team was the rest I mean. it was just then it was like you need something you have to have a relaxing element because you know they feel you feel like oh we can relax now that we've got the home court back and you don't really have it back.

Yeah, I mean, and in this game again, Luca 42 14 assists spectacularly and when I asked you about him in that first game, I'm asking you as a guy who's the only one on set that's faced this guy, what do you think? do you face when you face?

luka

doncic

huh, you're up against the guy who has total control of the game. You know, I think the most incredible thing about Luca is the pace at which he plays, you're not rushing him, he'll get the shot he wants. It's going to involve all of his guys and that's the challenge, so you, he's getting the switch and the scissors fall on these switches and then he just gets to his place and that's been the story of this series that we will talk. the

clippers

with you

shaq

in just a second first let's listen to ty liu he committed his fourth foul and then when he came out again we had to ask kawhi to do a lot of things i think kauai got a little tired but you know pg Have four fouls at the beginning of that third quarter really hurt us and so we had some turnovers that led to easy baskets for those guys and then we couldn't score the ball like we needed to, so I'm only having 21 points in that third quarter. fourth, you know he really hurt us offensively, okay, in retrospect, it's pretty funny, but I think you made the zoo for the page at that moment.

Do you consider putting Terrance in to keep the lineup small? I have to see it, I don't. Remember exactly thanks Sabrina Hey, did you see anything different about how they were defending Kauai in this game? I thought they showed two or three bodies all night, they packed up the paint. You know, to make sure Kawaii got away. You know, I thought. We made some great shots that we didn't make and then Tyson took threes instead of continuing to attack because we were so open that we didn't make threes early in the game and they made some shots for something like that. gain some confidence, you know, but I thought we had great shots all night, you know, you're going to do something, you have to miss some, but they still can't take away our aggressive attack, the pain in attacking the basket even though They try to, you know, run a lot of zone where we still have open shots, so you can still drive it too, so we have to be better when it comes to playing against their guys, thank you for doing that.

Nick Hamilton, hey, coach, obviously, you've been in this situation before, so what's the message now that you're telling your team? Especially after this loss and returning to Dallas for Game 6, we have to win in seven. Now let's do it right. Explain the Clippers to me, Shaq, well, they're going to have to make a decision. I'm not a defensive specialist, but I played against some incredible scorers and we all did it and we always made two decisions, let him make his, but no. Don't let the help help well or turn it off and make others beat us.

You know, Luca didn't get much help, but he did get some help from Tim Hardaway Junior. He had never seen that before a team had five stars. and double figures and then you know and you lose another team that has two and double, yeah, two, I've never seen it before, but you can't, you can't let a guy keep torturing you at home with these points, I heard, I thought, Kawhi Leonard . and paul george were main defenders, maybe you have to go back to old school basketball, pass the screen because all this because luke is smart, he's dribbling, dribbling, oh I want patrick beverly to change, I want the kid I was afraid of take the leg like him.

Like he's, you know, calling these people and then once he gets going, it doesn't matter who you got, it's already hot, yeah,

shaq

, you can't go over the screen just because once he he turns around and seals you and plays and keeps you like you're 10 years old and he keeps you in front of you like you're dribbling a 10 year old's ball and you're too big and he because he's six foot seven Which I was asking him Draymond and the back are the same size but he is heavier so now he can keep smaller defenders and bigger defenders on his back because it is also due to his width so for me it becomes if not raisins.

We have to double, we have to double this guy and have him get 25 assists. I'd rather see him try to get 25 assists, but we know he can get 42 points, so I think there's a double team that has to curve you towards the Clippers. uh or if you're over then you could play mono amano if you're paul george or you're kawhi leonard and a checker vernon maxwell wasn't on that team robert dory just hit me and said stop lying well both of you "Everyone's talking about the defense , which I think is 100 accurate, but when I look at this stat sheet, what stands out to me is that I know PG was in foul trouble Reggie Jackson was six of 12 from three, now to the credit of Reggie Jackson. . he made his shots, but reggie jackson can't make 6 of 12 from three and paul george is 7 of 14 from the floor, that's the dallas mavericks executing their game plan, what everyone says get the ball out of luke and hans they're saying hey pg we want the ball out of your hands we want reggie jackson to shoot at three we're going to make reggie jackson beat us because we know paul george can beat us we know kawhi leonard can beat us and what Everybody's saying the Clippers They need to do the Dallas thing, that's exactly what Dallas is doing to the Clippers.

Let's make everyone else beat us. That goes back to your point, if the Dallas Mavericks had five guys and double figures, I wouldn't. I know if they beat the Clippers the ball spreads, that means when push comes to shove the guy who could have the ball the most may not have it, yeah, but you can't let the best player on the court have a . pace taking 37 shots it's not like it's nine from three to 17 for 30 seconds he's shooting fades calling people catching catching got a double I mean put them on a layup not just Luke any great NBA player who can score

ernie

you gotta double them when they're rolling like nobody's there steph curry gets going you got a lady double lilly gets going you gotta double it there ain't no NBA player who can really score the ball you can keep playing one on one and go through screens Let's finish this like we started it, so when you with your memories of '95, so when you finally make it, uh and oh, I'm sorry, you come back for the sixth game instead, ice cream because you like it, I always say that your antennas are active.

Like you know, no, we're not going to do that again, we're not going to do that again, we're not going to come back like Santa Claus, we were like telling the ball boys when we were leaving, hey, see you next year, They said: what are you talking about? about, oh, can we not come back, we won't see you this year, we'll see you next year, have a good summer, that's all, we're telling everyone at the arena we're never going back there, Dallas, they They will never return to Los Angeles. angeles dallas has a guaranteed lead over the
