“Why Are You Doubling Luka?” | Inside Reacts to Mavs vs. Nuggets | NBA on TNT

116 115 Dallas over Denver this is inside the NBA presented by KIA I want an interesting little nugget about that game what is Denver had won nine games in a row by one point, one shy of the NBA record of 10. but they lose this one night, would that be great? on Jeopardy at 115. Yeah, you know all that useless stuff and Luca with his sixth triple double 22 10 and 12. This game was, I mean, it's a great fourth quarter to see guys making great shots down the stretch. Here, chuckter, it was a great fourth quarter. but it was the highlight of how to play stupid basketball.

I like Villas, you know, I don't get it, okay, go back and watch the game, the Mavs got the game and started going to Joker, they doubled him every time and I gave up open threes for some reason. I wonder why you don't let him score instead of hitting the threes, getting them back into the game and then on the last play where Hardaway hit the three, what the hell were you? Why are you? You were

doubling

Luca basically at half court like I was sitting there, letting Joker score, don't give up, Wild on three, that's how they got back in the game while they were shooting, but on that last play, someone hit a double de Luca and left Hardaway open. open, so would you say you want, you want?

Why don't we do the Highlight? Then we'll come back and talk some more. By the way, it's 12:40. In the East, I forgot to check the time when we start the sample oh, so it's two of the best players getting ready to play and um, behind him, oh, and Christian Wood, that's a great pass right there, yeah, what great vision and , oh, what a look, why would you leave the basket, although meanwhile Lucas four three is me? right, Kenny, yeah, it was a little stupid, yeah, and Luca got a pre-room like that, step back to the left and pull that step back.

Joker, by the way, leaves the league on floats, really yes, who counts that below, although not like Underdog? great central vision, those are our friends on the sports radar that we have, we have that one that leaves the league and the floaters, are you kidding me, who leads to leave the jump hooks? So oh man this Nugget has some talent, they just gotta get tougher oh. boy Luca again and you know Porter didn't even play tonight 64-58, Dallas' lead in the middle of the good night for Tim Hardaway could have had his first 30-point game since the 2021 season, he dropped a shot from a point, but Highland connects at that moment Joker with the rebound and Joker with OK, it's a tremendous pause in the shot, but I got that big no, no, oh, find it.

Jeff Green returns from injury. Game 86-82. Luca Hardaway. Well, that's a bit disingenuous and brings it down again. the same play at the end of the game, you know they took second place in the filter, they're saying, hey everyone, anyone could beat us, but Luca, oh god, Jim Hardaway is on fire, can he, yeah, he was, yeah , don't leave it as if it were open? open jokic 19 eight and eight on the night that was the first just like the third right there Ernie, yeah, Bruce Brown gives them the advantage 112 111. now look at this play right here, what the hell is that Vinnie the jet?

Come on, that's just bad defense. I'll explain it. He misses one game point. There are no timeouts for the Nuggets. Jamal Murray in half court. Oh, and with that, the Dallas Mavericks make it three straight 116-115 wins while handing the Nuggets the loss. their first three-game losing streak of the season 116 to 115. um, GK, our producer, telling me when you last had a chance again for Chuckster to talk. I just don't understand why you're

doubling

Luca so far from in the basket he's not, you know, and on a basketball court there are spots where you'll only hear the dangerous guys, this guy's not dangerous out here, aim when he comes out of the screen, it's not dangerous, it goes sideways, well, that's not the last thing.

He's not the good one, he'll do for now probably like what the hell is this here number 11 has to be there number 11 has to be there but even if he won't kick him to say uh what's his name? in the 26th corner you don't double it that far from the baskets and your darling will still be there, yeah that was my point, he didn't make a full rotation, you're going to double, yeah, but the other guy would have been 26. Gotta make him to make the extra power Spencer, yes, I already did it, but if you had the option behind your back, you would have made that participation, no, I'm saying I'm leaving, I'm not going to bend those four away from the basket, he's not a danger out there.

I mean, you have to lead and you give up a two. You're going to give up a wide on three either way. I wouldn't fold. I just thought I had a question, so you would ask the question. It's with so much time on the clock or talking about Luca going to take the last shot or you want Philly Smith to take it with an open Penny Smith or a tough shot, Luca, why not finish? I'll give the uh but that's what they said we'll give you an open ending man that's why they got sick yeah it should have gone into full rotation yeah it's Luca.

Luca 22 did not score in the last quarter. He had a triple double in his sixth. of the year, it is the first game the Mavs won when Luca was not their leading scorer. Tim Hardaway had 29. That modern point we're always making, although yeah, that's all Lucas, yeah, yeah, that's you, your best player shouldn't. Be your top scorer every night.
