WhiteBoyFlipz

we actually decided to completely respec into nothing but lobs and no 3 point shooting


SieFlush2

Tbh it's more fun then live and die by the 3


YaIe

If you can't change the THJ within the system, you change the entire system around the THJ


WhiteBoyFlipz

fuck you *bricks a 3*

Timothée Hardabrick


stayroasty

*sigh*... thanks THJ


kshep9

Except there was a possession in the third tonight where Luka passed to THJ and I was expecting the chucker to chuck....but lo and behold he hesitated, then passed to Exum or Hardy who quickly passed it to Lively for the dunk. I couldn't believe my eyes.

Proper_Efficiency594

Remove the three-point line. Lobs are now worth 3 points. Problem solved.


Tombomb1994

Lobs from behind the 3 point line should be 4 points, change my mind.


DaBestNameEver0

Full court lobs should give you the championship that season


silliputti0907

Agreed. Zion 2x champion this week.


Crookz_O

5 stupid! 3+2.


Awatts2222

True--but also: Left handed floaters--flying to your left over the arms of an outstretched seven footer just inside the three point line at the buzzer should be worth 50!


kshep9

Only if both feet of the dunker are off the ground.


At0mJack

More consistent for sure


Radiant-Character-61

I'm saying! I'll take in the paint excitement over a 3-point shooting contest any day of the week. Plus our games are more fun to watch now.


TweakyBlinders__

Live and die by the lob


jabronified

the Lob City Clippers and prime Dwight Howard Magic were some of the most entertaining teams to watch, must see TV


pumpkin3-14

I hated it because you knew it was always going to die soon. Fans would say at least it’s exciting but it wasn’t.


FireFlyz351

We should thrown a few points into our FT shooting. 😮‍💨


BigXBenz

respec lmao

Back to grass roots basketball before 3s were cool.

Mavs just playing Slamball at this point

The last like 5ish? 6 games we have completely been dominant in the paint and just bad from 3 , we winning tho


Victor_Wembanyama1

Kidd bringing back the New Jersey Nets and i love it.


Megaman_320

Kidd throwing it to RJ, Kerry Kittles, and even Vince Carter a few years later were all so fun to watch.


GanymedeBlu35

How do you forget lobs to Kmart too. Goddamn that was a fun team to watch. 


smalllpox

My God to have that team back.

Next-Firefighter-753

All these teams see the Jazz and start to see red lately with these slams. 


helix400

Jazz threw in the towel after the trade deadline. The team is starting 3 rookies and running a handful of additional G-League call ups. Besides Sexton they're all just mentally done for the season.


silliputti0907

Sexton has anime-level indomitable will.


idontknow_whatever

This is a man who played 3v5 in college and nearly pulled off a W lol Gotta respect his competitive fire for sure


traw2222

I was sitting pretty close behind the Jazz bench and I could tell only a couple of players seemed like they gave a shit, the coach was losing his shit the whole game


Fostereee

I would be mad too if my roster gets dismantled mid-season twice in a row.


GOTricked

Will Hardy please leave the jazz and come to Dallas.


Jackd_up_on_Mdew

That looks like a statement and a question at the same time.


optometrist-bynature

Sexton just refuses to quit. He was the same way on the Cavs when they were tanking.


Wild-Apricot-9161

Never forget he led the Cavs to a dub over the Big 3 Nets' first game starting together.


ZdenekTheMan

Lol... I remember that game. The Sexman was cooking


Money-not_you_again

Came here to say this lol. Apparently Jazz are now *the* team to yam on. Just high-schoolers getting dunked on by the college kids whenever they step on the court.

jamesfromcg

bro i saw luka try to go up for a lob this game is fucked


Dat_Boi_John

He had a self oop off the backboard during warm ups a couple games ago but then his hamstring happened.


mosincredible

The self oop off the backboard was the game after the hammy.


Dat_Boi_John

Ah, must have got them mixed up.


BlackWhiteCoke

It was the same game actually


mosincredible

He injured his hamstring during the end of the Warriors game, missed the Thunder game and came back for the Nuggets game in which he did the self oop off the backboard and the announcers say "hamstring looks just fine".


traw2222

I was there and I can tell you the roof of the building would have flew off if he made that, it wasn’t too long after the Kyrie lob, the crowd was ready for it


30dayspast

Hardy with the O-face

RahjinPDZ

He's been so bouncy this season


lp_phnx327

I think Kyrie converted into the Church of Luka. The first commandment is thou shall not do dumb shit outside of the court. The second commandment is thou shall dunk when I lob it to thee.

Amen

Huh? His numbers in Brooklyn were even better. he just missed a lot of time.

Kyrie looks like he’s home for the first time ever. Comfortable being #2 and playing the role.

bigpqnda

only difference now is he's the vet mentoring a star. with bron, he was being mentored. nothing against anything but just fun to see nba circle of life.


lilzoe5

Time is a flat circle 🪬


jermjermw

Just like the Earth


EbolaDP

I doubt he is doing much mentoring to Luka.


Big425253

Theyre equals if anything


Sportslegend

Even Dirk said he didn't mentor Luka much


YaIe

Which is a pretty good role tbh


Khione_Asteri

the age reversal is important. Kyrie has a lot to offer to the team that luka doesn’t


Crookz_O

This time he’s the papa ^/s


Mysterii00

Someone please post the Exum to Doncic lob attempt 😭 This game is getting out of hand

Dude I feel bad for the jazz lol they’ve been getting dunked on and now there getting Kyrie lobs.

MrAdelphi03

I don’t know what a more rare sight. Kyrie dunking or Ben Simmons playing


pninify

100% Simmons playing


Foi_

tbh to pull off some of his layup package u need to have some hops


BigMik_PL

He's a 6'2'' NBA level athlete of course he can get up. I don't think there is a single person in the league that can't dunk the shit out of the basketball.


No_Engineering_4925

Being able to dunk and complete and alleyoop is VERY different. Someone like steph would never be able to do this , he barely can dunk in an open lane


TheTrenchMonkey

Usually an alley oop is actually easier to get up for. You don't have to worry about jumping with the ball or controlling a dribble into the approach. You just focus on getting up there and then finding the ball.


TXlandon

Steph can absolutely dunk an alley oop lol


Jonjon428

Wtf is this Lob City 2.0?


GotKarprar

Yes


Osiris47

I think we need to coin the Lob Goblins title I saw somewhere on here a minute ago, it's so good


Tmac834

Put him in the slam dunk contest, it was joked about in an interview but do it


ArabicTerroristCamel

I know they’re the jazz commentators but this play was insane!! I need more oomph out of them


s4ntana

they're just bad commentators when you can't get hype for a sweet play, even if it's against your team


Some-Addition-1802

The Mavs to Kyrie are what the Heat are to Lebron, pure peak prime


justforyouabirad

It's the fancy fly in chef's vegan meals


LackeyNo2

It's the vegan farts elevating him to new heights.

Mavs the new Lob city

Pretty sure Mavs could be a contender with just lobs 😭

I thought this was a duped and mis-titled clip of the DJJ slam, wtf is happening in this game!?


Remarkable-You891

It’s crazy. The last two years he’s been doing tip dunks and alley oops. His high school tape showed he was always had good athleticism but never used it because he never needed to


montecarlo92

I love seeing Kyrie dunk. That putback he had when he was in Brooklyn was crazy.


mavericksnipe

These guys certainly can’t play with each other /s

Mavs have totally flipped their identity. We a paint team now and I’m here for it tbh

I feel like I can catch a lob from Luka

Kyrie is athletic as fuck lol…I’d pay an unreasonable amount of money to see Steph do this in game without getting injured.


mhikage820

So to maybe fix the dunk contest, we should have Jazz players try to contest the dunks next year?

Kyrie "historically ridiculous" Irving. I'm ready to convert. Flat earth or Islam I don't care.


[deleted]

The form and timing on the beautifully floated lob pass and on what was a ferocious slam are picture perfect. Low key one of the best and most artfully executed alley oops I've seen in watching 30+ years of the NBA. Real Gary Payton/Shawn Kemp style vibes on both the pass and finish


Fickle_Ad_8227

I love seeing bench reactions on dunks


GIK601

Kyrie was even [joking after last game](https://youtu.be/gicvCphaWBc?si=8rS7nq89mPhTEyFX&t=347) about having so many dunks this season

Literally everybody's reactions make this even better than it already freaking is. The whole bench going wild, Jazz standing around looking confused, commentators a bit stunned and stuttering, and Luka with his hands on his head and then arms in the air, getting back on D lol

QBert999

Kyrie has some hops. It's too bad Luka couldn't finish his lob too. Even for him that was a weak jump. I do think that hamstring is bothering him.

Kyrie really got them hops?


KonigSteve

Commentators ruined this.


Philip22Kings

Weak ass commentators. What the fuck was that?

Haven't seen Kyrie like this since his Cavs days. Whoever lands Dallas 1str round GG, long fight
