Great game from Luka returning from injury. Only issue would be the first half turnovers but he tightened it up in the 2nd half. He could definitely be a serious MVP contender if he continues this production while the Lakers keep winning.

  1. I really don’t think it’s crazy to say the only sports fanbase that is more depressed than us rn are the Jets, this is actual hell. It’s beyond indescribable how (He who won’t be named) is still fucking employed.

  2. Love this guy.

    He’s so fun to watch and it’s amazing how effortless he makes it look.

  3. How can he miss some shots so bad yet just hit an insane two steps to the left fadeaway three from logo

  4. I know Shai is an amazing scorer but I think Luka is the best in that department from all three levels.

  5. You don’t trade this man for Anthony Davis. You just don’t. And that’s while not even counting the very deep emotional connection we had with him too.

    Fuck basketball.

  6. One day we need to dissect the brains of Luka doubters to see what the fuck is wrong with them.

  7. First guy to start with 3 straight 40+ point games to start the season since Wilt in 1961 LMFAO

  8. Walked to a 44-piece. Never looked gassed, never looked like he was trying 100%. Scoring is as easy as drinking water for this guy.

  9. What a weird situation where I expect Luka to brick a wide open shot, but know it’s going in when three defenders are on him.

  10. Ja Morant apparently played in this game, but it was very hard to tell in the fourth quarter that he was in there with how invisible he was.

  11. What’s kind of crazy is that this was kind of a “subpar” game for him with the turnovers and some of his shot selection.

  12. Who won the trade tho

    You sometimes feel that we can sensationalise things in the moment and with time we’ll have a more measured view – 8 months later no one has changed their immediate thoughts on the trade lmao
