Los Angeles- Luke Angicic on Tuesday led his former team to win the 107-99 victory-in this process, every NBA became the third player to record triple-dabble against the franchise Tone Postgeam News Conference was not victorious during him.
No, Donic gave more relief from anything.
“It was a lot of feelings and not much sleep,” he said that the game was said about the game exactly three and a half weeks after doing business from Dallas Maverix, “I can’t even explain (this). A separate game.
“And, I am glad that it is overwhelmed.”
Donic, who had 19 points, 15 rebounds and 12 assist, their new team partner Lebron James and Danver Nugets Guard Russell were the only players to triple-dable against all 30 teams to join Westbrook, on Dallas Was not dominated. He shot 6 -for -17 (3 to 1 -for -7) from the floor, and it was James, who scored 16 out of 27 points on 7 -for -9 shooting in the fourth quarter to seal the victory. .
However, Donic found through a night that Dallas dealt with him, as an emotional barrier he processed not only to return to his old peers, with whom he has maintained friendship, but MAVS brass and coach Jason Kid at General Manager Nico Harrison.
“It will definitely help me,” Donic said about the game behind him. “It is definitely going to help in long (run).”
Harrison was standing on the sideline in the midcourt during the pregem warm -up, although Donic said he did not notice him.
He certainly looked at the bench of Mavs, directing many shouting and stardown and looked like this after dramaing to help his new team.
James said about Donic, “Obviously there are a lot of feelings when you give a lot to a franchise and you sacrifice for a franchise and you have that kind of love and respect for a franchise – In all trips, “James said about Donic. “They went to the finals, all the stuff. He is grown by being an 18-, 19-year-old child, now a 25-year-old man with a family. … and when you move or they move forward From you, it is very emotional, obviously.
“These are probably a lot of things that were running in their heads that probably did not even include the game. And with that, I felt that they had handled it tremendously.”
Mavs Guard Kyari Irving, who led all the scorer with 35 points, said the matchup was “S — as strange”, after facing the same man, he took Dallas to the final in the last season after facing against the same man. Was formed a team for.
“But,” Irving said, “At the same time, it was fun. We got a chance to feel that we are going to each other again. It was a good reflection point. Is.
Snenic called Irving his “Harmano” and said that his relationship is beyond basketball. “
The teams will do all this again in Dallas on 9 April. Returning to your old home will bring different challenges for donic, emotional and otherwise. Mavs are hoping that the Dallas from Anthony Davis, La was sent to the deal, by then the left adicter would recover from the strain, which he faced after business and he can play.
Lams’s coach JJ Radic said that there is no use to avoid the circumstances presenting the schedule. As on Tuesday as on Tuesday, but the players of L but the players had to deal with the conflicting feelings of looking back into the building and getting a permanent ovation in the first quarter when the LA played a tribute video for him, and then Tried to send him with a loss. The same Max went to match with Christie, which was also part of the business. He had 10 points and six assistance for Dallas, and played with the same effort and athleticism which used to be on the lax.
Radic said, “You are ready to hug it.” “It’s just a little strange. It’s naturally. … It’s healthy, in fact, to accept it and embrace it. And then you play the game and then you don’t have to do it again . “
Or, at least next time the doon and lases will have to play Dallas, they will have more time to establish a new normal.
“I mean, it’s going to take some time to close, I think,” said Donic. “It’s not ideal. But, as I said, I am happy that the game is over. There were many feelings. But we walk very little, and every day is better.”
