About this episode

We are so excited to welcome in Luka Doncic for a second time on the Old Man and the Three. Luka was gracious enough to spend about 50 minutes with us to talk all things Dallas Mavericks. We also have JJ giving his initial thoughts on the big trade deadline moves. And finally we do a check in with Jalen Williams of the Oklahoma City Thunder and (SIREN NOISE) the draft is back! This time we're doing best postgame meals. So much to get into. Let's go.


Topics include: JJ talks about which trades he likes and why he loves the Gordon Hayward to Oklahoma City Thunder trade and the Bojan Bogdanovic trade to the New York Knicks. Then Luka joins the show to break down his 73 point game against the Atlanta Hawks. He and JJ talk through possible rule changes like defensive 3 seconds in the lane and hand checking. Then Luka talks about what Kyrie Irving has meant to the Mavs when he's healthy and on the floor. Luka talks about his passionate trash talk about his rivalry with Devin Booker. Luka talks through the highs of the Western Conference Finals run and that epic series against the Phoenix Suns and the lows of missing the NBA playoffs and NBA play-in games. He also talks about the criticisms he's faced early in his career, the game winner he hit against the New York Knicks and his concerted effort to try on defense. He also gets into fatherhood and what an ideal NBA career looks like for him. Then we are joined by Jalen Williams of The Oklahoma City Thunder to talk about their amazing season and the play of Chet Holmren and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander aka SGA. And finally THE DRAFT IS BACK. Jalen Williams joins JJ and Tommy to draft their favorite post-game meals. Hope you enjoy this one!
