The Minnesota Timberwolves were completely outclassed by the Dallas Mavericks and their star man, Luka Doncic in the Western Conference Playoffs Finals.
Not only that, Doncic garnered a lot of attention for his trash-talking skills throughout the series. Many various analysts were talking about Doncic’s trash-talking, with Kendrick Perkins being one of them.
The host duo of First Take, Kendrick Perkins and Stephen A. Smith, talked about the trash-talking incident that happened between Luka Doncic and a spectator during game five of the Western Conference Finals. Perkins stated that he cherished Doncic’s trash-talking. He also claimed that Doncic fulfills the void in the modern NBA with his on-court antiques in the game.
I don’t like it, Molly; I love it. Seriously, he is one of the few that has given us what the game has been missing right? We don’t want to see the jerseys, and all love, my brother. We want to see this, a competitor who will compete and let you know something about it. If you have a problem with it, do something. On the First Take show, Kendrick Perkins said
On the sports side of things, Doncic and his side have qualified for the NBA Finals this season. In addition, Doncic was also named the WCF Playoff Finals MVP for his stellar performances against the Timberwolves. It remains to be seen whether or not Doncic achieves his first-ever NBA title with the Mavs this season.
Luka Doncic was on fire against the Minnesota Timberwolves in Game 5 of the WCF Playoff Finals. Doncic took over after the Mavericks’ first possession of the game. Before the game had even lasted 153 seconds, he was in double digits.
In addition, he also outscored the Timberwolves side 20-19 in the 1st Quarter. Doncic ended up dropping 36 points on the Timberwolves in his side’s victory. Notably, NBA insider, Brian Windhorst was also left impressed with Doncic’s top performance in game 5. On the First Take Show, Windhorst likened Doncic to the NBA legend, LeBron James’ performance back in 2012 against the Boston Celtics.
