Bombs Away Klay
The RoundUp is proud to be at the desk around 3 AM to cobble together exactly what you are craving this evening: instant reactions from the Mavs’ opening-night win over the Spurs. The hot stove of it all in the offseason now translates to the hardwood. While it is just one game, that second-half offensive display was a notable difference from anything that has come before it in the Luka Doncic era.
We begin with PandaHank, the best Mavs highlight channel in the business.
What I enjoyed the most about the postgame was how candid, sincere, and thoughtful Klay Thompson is whenever he fields a question.
Jason Timpf weighs in on the Mavs season-opening win. Stick around in this video for a quality breakdown of why the second half hit different.
Kirk Henderson and Josh Bowe recapped the game and Kirk makes a good point here. The Mavs are just a massive team now. Gone are the days of size issues on this roster.
The Locked On hosts are right where you expect them to be – breaking down Klay’s record-setting debut.
One of the best channels for recaps that balance having fun and learning more about the game, ZTAY is well worth a sub.
Ben and Skin sat down with Kyrie Irving for a fun interview.
Another nice reaction video from Venom, in case you can’t quite get enough of the opener’s best moments.
I recently wrote about my struggles with depression. During the season, the RoundUp will occasionally end with a video that lifts my spirits or strikes me as poignant. Shout out to Shimon Davis for saying what needs to be said. Imagine a world without screens for yourself and carve out time to make that happen a few times a week.
