PG loves the dynamic duo from Dallas
George was talking about the duo of Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving, Who is playing amazing basketball this season. Most people also thought that this pair would not be able to do anything special The reason behind this thinking was that both Luka and Kai are huge superstars and they also have an excellent grip on the ball. But what is surprising is that they have found a way to play with each other and enhance each other’s strengths.
This postseason marks Doncic’s fourth playoff appearance. He led the Mavs to the Western Conference Finals in 2022 and has faced the Clippers in 3 playoff series. Irving is the most experienced player in the Mavs Thunder series. Kai was a key player on the Cleveland Cavaliers’ 2016 championship team, Who came back from a 1–3 deficit to win the NBA title.PG said this Oklahoma City team is like their first playoff appearance for many players. Now it’s the second round. It’s more media coverage. It’s a bigger game, the lights are brighter, but the advantage is that they’re still figuring it out and they’re still winning.
