But they too were expecting to make a jump this year. To be out in the first round is tough. Especially as they probably played the Warriors better than the mavs in the playoffs last year. The hope for them was definitely conference finals this year.
The Lakers series was the most I've watched of Ja and I do not see him having a long career as an elite player. The amount of ridiculous impossible for no reason at all dunks he attempts is going to end his career sooner than later. Someone needs to explain to him how dangerous that is. The one where LeBron took a charge and got under him was extremely dangerous. Ja tries to dunk on EVERYONE! He's exciting to watch but his game is 100% athleticism right now. He needs to evolve to have a long healthy career.
