I'm a fan of Luka, but if the other three starters are only going to score 20 points a game, it'll be tough for Dallas to win no matter how good he and Kyrie play.

Holy fuck I read this as just Kyrie at first and thought I missed the GOAT game

I find it weird whenever articles say that one or two players had X points despite the loss. Unless someone single handedly dropped a game winning amount of points, all this number tells you is to what degree the distribution of total points scored is skewed toward one or two people. The fact that Luka and Kyrie combined for 74 might be indicative of an imbalanced and dysfunctional offense, or that they're taking way too many shots. There's no reason to think that two people combing for 74 points would make their team more likely to have won the game.

Damn, how do you go for 35 9 9 and are -17?

Because single game +- means nothing at all, it's trash.

Still a loss. The whole point is to win

I was watching this game and soon as Luka came back into the game they started getting their ass kicked after Kyrie was torching them. Game slipped away after that.

Karma for putting all their eggs in the basket of a racist and anti-Semite.
