The Dallas Mavericks are picking up speed at the right point. With nine wins in their last ten games, they’ve emerged as one of the league’s most powerful teams. With five regular-season games remaining, their outstanding performance has propelled them to fifth place in the Western Conference standings. Kyrie Irving of the Dallas Mavericks has a different points of view when playing against Golden State Warriors star player Stephen Curry.

During a recent interview, Kyrie Irving was asked about his strategy for playing against Stephen Curry. He is asked whether he sees Steph Curry as an actual motivation.

 

 

“I just show respect to the guys like that, he has put in a ton of work for our league he has set the bar for a lot of us point guards of where we want to be, we are still chasing his legacy. It’s just inevitable as a competitor to want to play well, and as somebody like that, he brings the best out of you, He’s gonna come in and do what Steph Curry thinks. I’ve just tried to take some of his strengths that he does well and incorporate into my game and I’m sure he’s taking things from me and we just learned from one another and that’s mutual respect.” Kyrie Irving said during that interview.

Based on current play and efficiency, the Dallas Mavericks are a viable contender for the NBA championship in 2024. They experienced a mid-season slump, which made many doubt their potential to win the championship.

Their luck has improved, however, courtesy of a successful trade deadline that saw them add key players such as Daniel Gafford and PJ Washington. Since the event, the Mavericks have won 18 of 25 games. Kyrie Irving, who averages 25.4 points, 5.2 assists, and 4.2 rebounds per game, has proven to be useful for the upcoming games.

Larsa Pippen decided to delete what social media determined was a heavily photoshopped snap from Instagram after getting dragged in the comments.

Larsa, the ex-wife of former NBA superstar Scottie Pippen, took to IG to share a photo of herself in a raunchy swimsuit, using the caption “Sunshine on my mind.” But she didn’t get the reaction she was after as many users spewed disappointment over the editing.

Some comments criticized the filtered appearance of her skin while others blasted her for a pose in which she opened her legs up to draw attention to a certain region of her body.

Many of the comments are said to have pointed out that she’s a mother and that she should be a role model to her four children. You can see the full image here.

Of course, some fans defended her in the comments as well, pointing out that she should be able to show herself off however she wants and flaunt her beauty whenever she feels like it.

Larsa is now in a relationship with Marcus Jordan, the son of her ex-husband’s former teammate, Michael Jordan. They have been together since 2022 and are planning to get married at some point.
