Tim Hardaway Sr. isn’t shy about calling out Dallas’ star players like Luka Doncic and it seems he’s back at it again with the criticisms.
In the past, Hardaway has called out Luka for not being a leader and even labelled him a crybaby, due to how much he complains to the refs.
Hardaway of course has a personal interest in the Mavs because his son, Tim Hardaway Jr., plays on the team.
He has dished out some fresh advice to Doncic, amid the MVP caliber season he’s having.
“I need for Luka to stop dribbling the ball,” Tim Hardaway said on The OGs podcast. “You know stop being ball dominant, but that’s his game. You gotta know how to be ball dominant, but you gotta know how to run an offense. Run offense for some guys that need offense ran for them.
“Kyrie don’t need offense ran for him, but you know somebody like my son, you need a floppy for him, a couple of pin downs for him. You need to get him involved in the game so it can make it easier for you because if you have somebody, like you Mike, you standing in the corner for eight minutes, you’re just running up and down the court for eight minutes, and then they pass you the ball. You’ve got a wide-open jump shot, but you’re not going to make it. You’re not in rhythm. You haven’t even touched the ball.”
Kyrie and Luka have an 18-10 record on the season when playing together and Dallas have a 32-23 record in 2023-24 as a whole.
