Can blame a coach that created an offense that solely relies on the iso qualities of his two star players or the star players for coming up short. Certainly not on the role players. Looking at the entire series they have played well above expectations. Especially on defense.
Kyrie had the best game of the series in game four. But in the first three games he was nowhere to be found for long stretches. Luka is having the worst playoff series of his career. He is shooting 38/30/81 splits for 50.4% TS. That's not going to cut it. But it is only one playoff series. Maybe the Mavs lose. Doesn't mean that Luka can never win. I am already seeing some of the late 00s Dirk narratives on social media and would bet that they will age just as bad. Luka is that good of a player.
