The Dallas Mavericks got creamed by the New York Knicks on Wednesday night in what turned out to be one of the Mavs' most disappointing losses of the season. Luka Doncic tried his best to carry his team but he did not have much support throughout the evening as Dallas ended up on the receiving end of a humiliating 107-77 blowout loss in Madison Square Garden.
To add insult to injury, Knicks legend Walt “Clyde” Frazier also had some choice words for Doncic during the broadcast. The Hall of Famer turned color commentator for the Knicks did not appreciate Luka's incessant complaining during the game. At one point, the Mavs star received a technical foul from the referee after a bit of obscenity and it prompted a ruthless shot from Frazier:

Frazier did not hold back here. Commentators usually try their best to be unbiased during games, but clearly, the Knicks icon didn't even bother trying to hide his distaste for Doncic and his actions.
Luka actually dropped 31 points in this one on 12-of-25 shooting, to go along with six rebounds, four assists, and two triples. It was all for nothing, though, as the Knicks blitzed the Mavs from the get-go. New York never looked back and it resulted in their third straight win.
