This has become my favorite NBA pic ever.

After much thought and motivation from many people, I've decided to launch a Substack called Digginbasketball (LINK IN MY BIO).

I appreciate y'all taking a look & sharing this tweet if you like it to help me reach more #MFFL🙏

Quentin Grimes deep-dive already waiting there 👀

BREAKING: Free agent Klay Thompson plans to join the Dallas Mavericks on a three-year, $50M deal with a player option, sources tell ESPN. Thompson ends his historic Warriors run as part of a multi-team sign-and-trade that’ll also send Josh Green to Charlotte.

Luka Dončić has defeated THREE 50-win teams so far in the 2024 playoffs.

LAC (51-31)
OKC (57-25)
MIN (56-26)

Nikola Jokic has still never defeated a 50-win team in a playoff series.

[Iztok Franko @iztok_franko]

So a 20-year-old rookie center, two grade-D trade guys, an agent of chaos, and a 4th-best 25-and-under player whose impact on winning is suspect walk into a bar...and ask 'Who is going to the FREAKING NBA FINALS???'

Luka Doncic to a courtside fan making the crying baby motion to Doncic after he scored and was fouled: "Yeah! Who's crying now, motherf---er!"

[Adrian Wojnarowski @wojespn]

Tests returned OK on Dereck Lively II’s neck but his availability for Game 4 remains unclear, source tells ESPN.

[Jace frederick @JaceFrederick]

4th quarter:

KAT and Ant: 2 points
Kyrie and Luka: 19 points

[DJ Report @MavsDJR]

@iztok_franko That court is amazing

[HeroOfTheDay @Hero_OfThe_Day]

Want an example of how the National Media manipulates narratives about certain players??

Anthony “The next MJ” Edwards has scored less than 20 points, in 4 of his last 6 playoff games.

Luka Doncic has scored less than 20, in 4 of his career 44 playoff games.

There are levels

[StatMuse @statmuse]

Last three rookies with over 100 points and 50+ FG% in a playoff run:

Tim Duncan
Kawhi Leonard
Dereck Lively

Lively is the only rookie in NBA history with 100+ PTS and 60+ FG% in the playoffs.

[Hardwood Paroxysm @HPbasketball]

Luka Doncic is a winning player. I accept being an idiot.

Also, regardless of Finals, he takes Best In The World Title with this series for the summer.

[Yhwach @idaraXX]

Hard pass on the Jeffrey Dahmer documentary, if I wanted see a white man killing niggas I’ll watch the Dallas Mavericks

[StatMuse @statmuse]

Lively tonight:

14 PTS
9 REB
6-6 FG
2-2 FT
0 TOV

Perfect.

[DJ Report @MavsDJR]

While that 2022 series-win over PHX was impressive, the Suns shit their pants in Game 7.

OKC did not in Game 6 or during the series, the Mavs were simply just the better team.

Either DEN/MIN are going to be an incredibly tough test for Dallas, but man... hard not to believe.
