[Highliht] Luka tosses a lob up to LeBron, then steps back to drain a 3 and put the lakers up 9 with under a minute remaining
Luka’s torching them right now
He torched that fan that was probably smack talking him
He keeps talking back at that fan too whenever he runs pass him lol
Lebron stared him down after one of his middy fadeways too
Vintage r/Lukamagic
We just need to hire someone different to heckle him every game
eminem pricy tho
Was waiting for when that Guggenheim money comes into play.
That was Rob Lowe in disguise
If I’m the Lakers, I’d hire someone to wear the other teams colors and sit curt side only to talk trash to Luka, as it always seems to awake a different beast in him lol
they should sign Matas Buzelis to sit courtside and just talk shit for the entire playoffs
I don’ t see why the Lakers don’t do that, it’s the only way they fire him him up all game.
Hell they should just hire laker fans and buy them the courtside tickets to talk the worst trash to them lmao
I’d reckon a gambler might try that.
Why does Luka get a buff whenever he gets rage baited by a fan
Bill Simmons told me Jaylen Brown is better though.
Wasn’t that Kellerman?
Idk, but Perkins agrees with Simmons
Luka seems good enough for 3rd Team now -ESPN probably
He might just make the cut as the 15th guy.
It was and he is not worth mentioning, the same way we shouldn’t talk about Perkins or SAS or Skip Bayless, being a moron is his job. However Bill has been pushing JB for 1st team and even MVP a couple weeks ago when it seemed like we could have had the top 2-3 guys miss the limit
He’s always owned Houston.
I remember that crazy late game shot he hit against them while on the Mavs.
Rich Paul just had to scrap an entire anti-Luka segment on his podcast
Luka should hire smack talkers every playoff away game.
complete takeover
Fucking magic
“Hey Luka, you suck, ya jackass”
MVP argue with ya mama
Two similar plays but with Rui previously
I really think Lakers should spend money to plant courtside fans to talk shit
Luka > Jordan
I want to say some absolutely vile things about Nico that will 100% get me banned on this sub
I don’t think I have ever hated another man ever in my life
Me when I think about Donald Sterling 🤣🤣
I hate Mark Cuban more. He hired the bastard
Mark Cuban is wants to pretend like he’s one of the guys, like no it’s not my fault I accidentally sold to the Adelsons they pinky promised they would take good care of the team. Fuck this piece of shit, I hope he burns in hell.
Idk in Cubans defense, the Adelsons aren’t basketball people but there’s just no way you’d think a human with a functioning brain would trade Luka. You could find a 5th grader and make him Owner/GM of the Mavericks and that’s not a decision even he would make
The Adlesons are evil and the number one reason I’m no longer a MFFL, mofos made me break my vows. Luka trade was just the catalyst.
I’m not sure the adelsons are people period. Fuck Cuban for selling to them
Oopsy doopsy who knew that the owners of a gambling empire (and some of the largest republican donors) dont have people’s interests at heart
I don’t think Cuban ever expected that anyone would ever be stupid enough to trade away their franchise star.
Cuban expects the stupid masses to buy his shtick that he’s just oh so happy go lucky and just HAPPENED to sell his prized team to literal demons who immediately sucked out the soul and lifeblood of the Dallas fanbase.
Fuck Cuban. And this is coming from someone who really truly liked him
Maybe he did maybe he didn’t, but he definitely wasn’t concerned about the future of the team more than the money he got
So his worst crime is, pretending? Selling off his financial asset at a gain?
Hoping he burns in hell for that is insane.
That’s a bit harsh don’t you think
Ngl man idk how Mavs fans can still watch basketball after that. Id have taken at least a couple years off
Thankfully, I was already a huge Bron fan. If I wasn’t I’d be straight tweaking watching stuff like this.
We welcome you with open arms, femboyfootsniffer
Macbeth?
Edit: or Tyler the Creator Sway in the morning freestyle?
I followed LeBron to every team he went to, no shame on following Luka lol
For real, I know it’s considered sacrilege in some fandoms but you can simply like whoever you want to.
Flagg helps, but I’m watching more Lakers than Mavs to be honest.
Yeah. I watch maybe every 5th mavs game. Definitely watch the spurs and lakers the most these days. And I have at many times absolutely despised the spurs and lakers for what they’ve done to my mavs a few times over the years. Eh. Who gives a fuck about the mavs any more. Flagg getting them to 20 wins doesn’t really entice me and kyrie isn’t going to move the needle that much in the west… I’ll catch em in 5 years when they are less shit. Or maybe after the Epstein class is done for and the mavs owners get wrecked, but we all know there ain’t no justice in this world because of that Judas named Nico.
I was a diehard Mavs and NBA fan for the better part of 25 years. I was there during the Nash/Dirk years, I was there in 06 when we lost to Miami, I was there for 2011 (incredible) and then for the tough years right before we drafted Luka. I was obviously locked in during the Luka years, but I haven’t watched a quarter of basketball in its entirety since Nico traded Luka.
I hate that man for ruining the Mavs and the NBA for me. Getting Flagg is a fine consolation prize and I hope that I become interested again, but dammit I just can’t get into it right now.
i feel you bro. I bit the bullet and did something i NEVER EVER thought i would ever be capable of doing. I switched my fandom. Like serious emotional fandom.
i watched thousands of hours of Mavericks basketball since Luka was drafted in 2018. I was installing carpets and hardwood flooring and busting ass while watching a random Mavericks game in the middle of February just because Luka was THAT magical. He was and still is MUST SEE TV every time he plays.
i gave years of my life and thousands of dollars in merch and tickets to the Mavs.
and i have zero emotional connection to them anymore.
That trade fundamentally changed me as a person as stupid and lame as that sounds.
I was a diehard Mavs fan. Now they’re just another team to me.
It’s so fucking bizarre i still can’t believe it’s real
Its all the hit pieces on the way out,discusting
It really was that hit piece bullshit that sealed the deal.
They treated this man like some sort of homeless pariah garbage scum.
That really was the final nail in the coffin. Didn’t even have the decency to treat him like a normal player, let alone the potential goat of the franchise.
“Loyalty Never Fades Away” my fucking ass.
If we didn’t get the most undeserving #1 draft pick of all time the team would literally be a poverty franchise with zero support. Coop is that good, where even someone like me, who felt a dark pit in my sports soul for months after the trade, can feel a little bit of excitement. That being said, I can’t fucking believe that we don’t have Luka.
Let it out man. This is a safe space
no it’s not you’ll get banned fast as fuck on reddit saying the wrong shit ever since they IPOd
FUCK THAT BITCH NICO
Say it man
He’s brain actually needs to be studied built the perfect team around him just to ship him out. You’re telling me you cant convice him to get in shape
i feel like there only 3 or 4 words you could use that would actually get you banned. let it out
Defense wins championships buddy!!!!
Nico Harrison you have done miracles on me
How do you have functioning brain cells and trade this dude lmao
The dumbass took the “Defence wins championships” mantra a little too seriously and decided Luka was the issue.
Just hold opponents to 0 while you score 2. Genius
easy for you to say, Victor Wembanyama
Valid strategy in hockey at least
which is funny cause Luka is a plus defender this season so
People forget he legit clamped up SGA in the clutch in their series over the Thunder. SGA got his of course but Luka legit blocked him in the end to win the game.
Mf couldn’t even defend his own job
Even just a month back before the all star break there were several mentally challenged folks saying that Nico had a point in trading Luka
No no no it made perfect sense for Nico. If Luka was there then the team couldn’t be all about him
That’s actually a real possibility. He moved pretty fast trying to get rid of guys who were holdovers from before he got there. Dude went out of his way to sour the team’s relationship w/Jalen Brunson. POS fired Mavs and Team USA head trainer Casey Smith while the guy was at his dying mother’s bedside. He was even a major advocate for getting Cuban pushed out of any decision making. Pretty much the only person who predated him left when he finally got fired was Dwight Powell.
Build the statue!!!
🎶🎶 “he’s done miracles on me” 🎶🎶
He needs a statue or something
He genuinely just took over
Would Luka be named king of slovenia if there was a vote?
Look up Tadej Pogacar
Pogi is one of one. The new GOAT.
Helluva 5 month span for babies born in slovenia damn
Janja Garnbret (goat of climbing) is also like 2 weeks younger than Luka
She is ridiculous, by a genuinely massive portion the best womens climber in the world
not even close lol she’s undeniably the women’s climbing GOAT even if she retired now. she can easily outcompete men as well but lets not go there lol
Luka Doncic - NBA Lakers
Benjamin Šeško - Manchester United
Anže Kopitar - NHL Los Angeles Kings
Tadej Pogačar - UAE Team Emirates
Domen Prevc - Ski Jumping
Two million people. Five GOATs. Not bad, Slovenia.
Don’t forget Janja Garnbret. Greatest competition climber of all time already and she’s still only 27.
Janja’s so fucking good.
Oblak and Janja erasure smh. Also, Prevc family as a whole.
Sesko is not the GOAT lmao. If any i would rate Oblak muuuch higher.
Beo literally forgot the greatest climber of all times
People are just bored putting Cade and Brown in convos with this guy. Unreal player
people have become desensitized to this shit
Only player with voter fatigue without getting any MVPs.
I really got to wonder how much Nico and the Dallas ownership pulled the strings to change the narrative about Luka.. he dragged the Mavericks to the finals and everyone acted like he wasn’t even a top 20 player.
Or they’re dumb as fuck like Kendrick Perkins.
At least you can’t vote on the scoring champion cause he would somehow have him 3rd
The only players in the convo with him are Shai and Jokic. People just saying whatever now
You could make a case for Wemby too
Shoutout Madelyn Cline
You got centel’d
I saw someone post that Giannis hadn’t been top 5 for a couple of seasons.
Basically, this sub is full of catty rage baiters and drama mongers who would rather hate the great players than watch actual games.
That rockets fan should probably shut the fuck up and stop heckling luka lmao
You’d think people would’ve learned by now
The fan is probably drunk and having the time of his life going back and forth with Luka. Who cares about the score at that point, if you’re the fan.
I think you misunderstand, that Rockets fan will talk about this story his entire life (assuming Luka was talking back and forth with him). Sure a game is lost, but that guy got a great memory about how he was talking shit to Luka and Luka did these moves and talked back to him.
Think of the time that Dallas fan was talking shit to KD and then she was trying to dap him up when KD said something.
Lakers should probably hire that fan to travel with the team indefinitely
If I win the lottery I’m taking a vacation for the whole playoffs and going to every game courtside to be a double agent and heckle Luka.
Same guy appearing in the opposing team’s jersey every series 💀
during the playoffs courtside people need to having the opposing jerseys and just talk shit to Luka so we can actually get him mad so we can see him thrive!~
Paid actor
luka talking to him for the first 10 seconds of the possession not even looking at the ball lmao
Luka legit just took over in the last couple minutes
I miss him so much
He’s not dead bro. You can still watch him play
Let bro grieve, that shit was unforgivable to their fans
That’s greatest crime I’ve ever seen committed and I’m a historian
Actin like fans can’t miss players is wild shit man
That step back 3 was a dagger
It’s beautiful to watch because he could still mostly do this in late stage Dallas but he would look gassed as hell doing it, he was still full of energy here
Last couple minutes he looks like the best player in the world
He often looks like the best player in the world
Last month fr with the way Jokic looking
Looks like the 18th player on the MVP ladder
He is the best player in the world when he gives 100% effort
Idc that blocking foul he had. Dude’s participating on defense.
Wasnt a blocking foul, that wouldve been 2 shots. They called the foul on the pass received, on smart.
better than sga we know it
I’M ABOUT TO BE FUCKING INSUFFERABLE
peak flair i loved baby brandon
His cover of Diamonds by Rihanna wearing that onesie during his rookie year lives rent free in my head
You mean Travis Outlaw?
Luka becomes an absolute demon when the crowd pisses him off
It makes no sense because it happens literally every time he just chooses to get hot
Fucking animal. People debating him vs Jaylen Brown should be ashamed.
I’m a Celtics and JB fan but man, I don’t even know why that’s being brought up
There’s absolute no debate. Not diminishing the great season JB is having and how much he improved as a leader… but Luka is simply one of the most talented humans to ever touch a basketball. Period.
There’s something innate about his game that can’t be replicated by hard work.
Why don’t teams just double LeBron double Luka and double Reaves? Are they stupid??
Reminds me of that RDC skit on Olympics.
I still can’t believe this guy is on my team
You better start believing, FieryRedButthole!
exact same lob to rui right before this too
Can’t forget the spin move 3 on Thompson right before that
All 4 of those in the span of a couple of minutes of the 4th quarter of a massive tiebreak game on the road. And each one would be the highlight of the season for 98% of the league lol
I feel like were finally getting the full luka experience as laker fans
Not yet,Luka winning playoff series is something else.
This mfer literally made the 1st Seed, 62 Win Phoenix Suns issue an APOLOGY to their fans for the absolute ASS KICKING that Luka gave them in what is easily one of, if not the MOST iconic Game 7s in NBA playoff history.
I’ve literally never seen that before🤣 They had to lock down their sub after that loss
“Everybody acts tough when theyre up”
As a Mavs fan of 25 years you ain’t seen shit until you see this Luka in the playoffs. He’s 2nd only to Michael freaking Jordan in Playoff PPG.
Nah bro, wait till Luka goes on the road in a playoff game and single handedly crushes the soul of 20k fans and 15 other professional atheles in the most humiliating way possible while talking that shit. Honestly better than sex, drugs & the gaze of a woman that’s in love with you put together. You’ll feel like you were born just to witness it. May Nico burn in hell.
I’d just enjoy it and not take it seriously this season because this team is not that good to go all the way. The full experience should be after the Lakers build a team around him finally
Crunch time Luka is insane
Bro, he missed 3 FT’s in a row… then does this shit.
Either he hits his 3s or FTs. Getting both is the rarity with Doncic 😂
I tuned in just as he missed all three, missed a 3, and I was like shit I guess he doesn’t have it tonight..
Luka could put it in me soft idc
Ayyyoooo lmao
this comment is CRAZY work
Just like Luka.
Unreal takeover here to end the game, generational talent
Bron and AR have both missed 20 games, roster is super flawed, yet he is gonna lead them to 50+ wins. IDK why he’s not getting more MVP love. It’s def SGA trophy to lose, but Luka is #2 imo
that clip is just swagger. nobody else has it like him right now. SGA could never be like this. didn’t hit the ground once. wild
Luka laying down some pipe on the Rockets the entire clutch in this game, just beautiful to watch
Sigh
Shame he’s in Jaylen Brown talks
Luka is the greatest player of all time
MAMA THERE GOES THAT MAN
Absolutely dissecting them in the clutch
That was disguting😭😭 this boy Luka been on one for a minute
Alley oop dunking in the clutch? That’s my senior citizen!
Nico you are my hero
Hot Take: Luka might be deserving of all-NBA 1st team despite what media says about him.
I don’t know about that one man… best I can do is 20th on the MVP ladder.
Obviously, Luka was cooking, but what the fuck was KD doing there?
He sinks into the lane as the low man, but he stands there without clearing for a good 5 seconds, then neither gets in front of Luka, tags DeAndre, nor prevents LeBron (his man) from cutting for a dunk.
And then loses the ball with a shitty pass lmfao
The media coverage of him is an absolute joke. Jokic has all the same flaws and has been worse for 3 months but he’s the media darling cause he got the 8 seed Heat in the finals?
(Luka coverage issue not Jokic, he’s amazing)
“why does Luka have such a high usage he is just a ball hog loser no defnse loser”
Give him the MVP
Wonder what that fan said to him lol
This Lakers team is giving me 2024 Mavs vibes. Holy shit, Luka. I think he’s gone super saiyan 2.
He torched them live 😂
Dude’s still screaming at that Rockets fan lmao
He’s unstoppable
The rockets have been exposed gg
lukas on demon time
I’m starting to believe in this team.
Nico Harrison All time Great Laker
The west is insane as is tradition
we really got to see luka and lebron play together man i love basketball
Lmaooooo what an ass sequence by KD. First he camps in the paint for like 5 seconds, then he lets Lebron back cut him leading to a huge alley oop. Then, he immediately chucks the ball out of bounds.
Holy fuck… Lakers super hot at a great time
Always love it when opposing fans or players irritate Luka, its a guaranteed belt
What a fucking monster
Mvp this man
That was peak
Only 3 players in the league rn can just decide to win a game like this
Love when Luke is like this. Talking shit to the fans while being in his bag.
WTF Kd was doing with that pass? He was killing in the 3rd quarter and disappeared again in the 4th quarter when the Lakers adjusted to their set play.
Luka just dropped to 10th in MVP voting for that performance.
