Dallas really needed that tanked for draft pick to hit and they couldn’t have done any better with picking Lively
“Lively has already hit his ceiling” crowd gonna be awfully quiet this year
Shit, if last year was his ceiling, as long as he keeps that up I’m ecstatic. If he makes a leap this year, I’m gunna full on chub all year long
The dude was abused by a 38 year old and an injured white guy
I see glimpses of Irving in that. He definitely learnt from the legend himself.
I like this, it was so painful in the Finals watching the Mavs realize they need to get Luka and Kyrie off-ball so they were in movement by the time they would touch it, but then PJ Washington and DJJ were just virtually inept at it. Having your Center be able to do this is so valuable as a change up because his defender most likely isn’t gonna pressure him.
No joke if lively added that to his game fully Dallas is going back to the Finals.
Still remember last year when he looked uncomfortable with dribbling the ball more then 2 times in a handoff…
Lively could be a big asset this year for Mavs. He proved last year in playoffs that he can play really well. Excited to see how he performs this year
I love watching Derexk on that team, I REALLY hope he keeps improving every year.
