Luka scored a 100 points in less than 24 hours
40 ball during yesterday’s rockets game
60 ball 24 hours later in tonight’s heat game
Scoring 60 on the second night of a travel back to back is insane
3rd in 4 nights too after getting to Miami at 5 am today after last nights game.
Bro and then NBA execs don’t see why so many players are getting injured. There’s no way 3 games in 4 nights should be allowed when there’s so much travel involved. This is bad for the fans too- like star/popular players getting injured & having to sit out for periods of time due to injury, bro now we can’t watch them + by the time playoffs come around, it’s a weak representation of the league bc so many people get injured right before or during. Ts is crazy bro.
Yeah it’s an impressive feat but no one should be in that position in the first place. They need to fix the scheduling.
I’ve seen enough. MVP.
Legit better numbers than MVP names but oh well
i was mildly surprised that lebron was playing that game considering how energetic he was the game prior I thought he would maybe take a rest but no its cyborg James I guess
He’s traveling on a private jet bro, do you seriously think the time matters😭 he gets a better sleep on that thing than you do in your non millionaire peasant bed
Not to mention this wasn’t against Sacramento then against the Clippers in LA. Flew from Houston to Miami. Insane.
Against 2 top 10 defenses. Crazy
Luka’s the final boss that sheds his fat to enter his second phase.
Luka Sakamoto.
Freeza Doncic
Thank goodness he didn’t call anyone monkeys when he was amped up
Luka Donchoji Akimichi
He’s molting
But but I was told by the media and r/nba he was out of shape and on his way to being washed. I was told he ain’t that guy, pal.
Idc what anyone says, this guy is better than Bam
I commend your candour and bravery in expressing this fringe view. All the best. 💪🏾❤️
big if true
The only Bam I respect is Bam Margera
That’s tuff 🔥
Is he better than Cad and Brown? /s
But Bam’s defense… tough call /s
Was wondering when the 83 point man was gonna show up
Wilt. Doncic. Doncic Baby Momma. Bam
Save these kinda ridiculous hot takes for Stephen A
8am Ad3bayo
I can think of one guy who’d disagree with you
Hottest take I’ve ever read. Well done for saying what most of us are afraid to say.
Luka just dropped to 15th in MVP voting
Just behind Norman Powell
Drops another 5 places in MVP race
At this rate he will come second in MVP for the D league.
These jokes are tired now
The jokes will not stop until morale improves
Luka getting an MVP improves your life how?
Are you really asking this in a subreddit full of sports fans?
What’s the answer?
The answer is a player you’re a fan of winning an mvp makes you feel good and thus improves your life. Have you never rooted for someone else’s success before?
Agreed. Easy upvotes in every Luka thread
Not as easy as Nico jokes
You’re downvotes prove the point. Every Luka comment section: “Drops down to 15th in MVP voting” “Nico is going to hell” “Kendrick Perkins can suck a dick”
Thanks for the input, great discussion, certainly more interesting discourse than on ESPN.
I’ll never forgive the nonstop 2025 Luka slander in a year he was traded out of the blue from his home to a bad roster, wasn’t able to see his kids, and going through a breakup after 15 years with that person
People really chose to believe the overblown or flat out dumb national narratives over 6 years of evidence showing greatness. Only remembering the last thing they saw. Even his “bad” year was 31-7-7 and playoffs.
Top 4 AT WORST and always was. Should be 1st or 2nd in the MVP ladder as well. Higher seed than Ant and Jokic (who get away with some of the flaws Luka has) and an efficient 33-8-8 with a worse roster
Complaining is an issue but don’t think it impacts the game so much as some. Defense and weight were issues at time but overblown, especially given his offensive load because of bad rosters. People reacting to a temporary bad shooting %’s to start, calling him a ball hog, or saying he can’t win big is just utterly ridiculous and shouldn’t have been entertained given his offensive greatness and bad rosters in comparison to Shai, etc and his playoff success
Did you just copy paste your comment from yesterday’s thread? Lol
AND I WONT STOp
Dude has been doing it for days now, maybe weeks
I mean I don’t disagree with the guy but he totally did
LMAO I thought this comment sounded familiar. However it’s not a bad comment at least.
its been peer reviewed for weeks by this point
hater serving day old pasta gtfo
Bro chill lol. I’m as big a Luka fan as they come, I agree with him, just thought it was funny to read the same comment twice
it was a joke lol
Is this a copypasta I swear I’ve seen this before
Idk if the Lakers have a worse roster than the Nuggets right now but otherwise yes.
Aside from LeBron yes. Reaves and Murray are around the same and the rest of the nuggets roster is just better.
which 4 players on the Nuggets are collectively better than LeBron, Reaves, Smart, and Ayton?
They don’t have a LeBron but the rest of the role players are way better than anything the Lakers have. Murray and Reaves are pretty even or Murray slightly. Guys like AG Watson cam Johnson are just better role players than smart or Ayton
So LeBron, in your mind, is not part of the roster.
Is LeBron enough to make up for Gordon, Watson cam Johnson valentounas etc? Debatable. Lebron is still 41 now c’mon.
When’s the last time any one of those 4 got even close to 19/15/10.
Brother it’s not one of them being better than LeBron it’s all of them combined being so much better than the other players the Lakers have that makes up for it.
He’s better than SGA half his team are Amazon workers and they’re 3rd seed
SGA’s team’s been injured all season so they’ve both been playing with a weak supporting cast
Bro even an injured okc is better then the lakers roster outside of Reaves and Bron lol. Wallace, Asian Duke Dennis, Kenrich, Joe are all insane players who can step up big time
The injured Thunder still have dudes up and down the rotation.
Lakers are more top heavy so when they miss LeBron and Reaves it’s a very bad supporting cast.
Both not true, Luka is playing with LeBron,Reaves and a former DPOY, and SGA playing with the best bench in the league
Lakers have the worst bench in the league
No way you guys are trying to say Luka doesn’t have help
The drop off after Reaves and LeBron is precipitous.
Not really, the bench is awful but Smart and Ayton are great this season.
They’re not Amazon workers, but they’re certainly not good. I would take just about any guard on the Thunder over Smart or any center on the Thunder over Ayton.
I agree on the center point, not on the guard front. Marcus is a team captain, offers a lot more than what you see on court imo
Lmao just 2 weeks ago people were calling for hayes to start over Ayton. Hes been fifth option starting centre caliber but nothing special
Agree on Smart, for Ayton he’s really ramped up very recently. It wasn’t that long ago that Jaxson Hayes was closing out games and Maxi was getting decent minutes because JJ couldn’t trust Ayton’s effort.
“Ayton” “great” 😭😭 cant believe these last couple games have somehow erased the weeks and weeks of dogshit that guy has been leaving on the court
He has help, but if lebron or reaves is playing bad the lakers lose basically if it’s a good team. Ayton, LaRavia, Smart, Hayes, Rui are not dropping 30 like Isaiah Joe etc can
Wanna trade rosters?
I think offensively they have similar amounts of help (Luka probably has more tbh) but defensively Shai definitely has more help.
I was at the game in Houston last night and after he hit that last step back three so many people gasped and started leaving their seats it was kinda satisfying lol.
i would’ve unzipped and started jerkin off in my seat
luka and bronny erupt as they combine for 60 points in the win over miami
Luka and Bronny just had 100 points in 24 hours.
He did it for Kobe lmao
Fuck that rapist luka did it for HIM
AR?
Given the number of times I read and re-read that as “Fuck that rapist luka. Did it for HIM.” - punctuation is important!
u right. LOL
Back to school you go.
Got a hater over here
I like to think of the simpsons and Homer at work. “Do it for her”
BEAT ME TO IT. INSANE! Did Luka set a record??
Yes most points against heat !
If you get specific about the hours it’s possible, but Fox did score 109 points across 2 games of a back to back last year. Jokic also scored 104 points over a back to back a couple weeks after Fox
Kobe did 110 in a back to back in 2007
Thats Luka Magic.
Technically 25 hours since their last game was at 6:30 PST and this one ended just after 7:30
No more technicals for Luka
Well yes, but no
I mean what makes the most sense is to consider end time for both games lol
As a mavs fan i would like to say that this is my personal hell
Once again fuck you Nico Harrison
MVP
Still 23 hrs more than 48 min wilt did it in 🤣
I was actually curious about the combined stats, but Wilt actually still took more shots with 63 FGA and 32 FTA which is nuts and I realize they didn’t have 3 points so he literally had to take at least 36 shots and make them all to get to 100
lock for all nba third team
[deleted]
did u miss the last ft
Drops to 120 in MVP voting !
Why did dallas trade him away?
Because defense wins championships. - Nico
So fun to watch him play except against my team
insane stuff
Insanely good at basketball
Lol, only 3 assists. What a ball hog.
Is this a first?
Wilt did it in one game
He is not a Bam.
2nd in MVP voting
u on a generational hating run my guy, surely u got better things to do
fuck no
u sad asf ngl, he’s playing the best basketball of his career rn
true, he’s playing amazing basketball I’m trolling xp
I can respect the honesty.
You starting to worry a bit huh? 🤣
Shai has been the BITW since last years playoffs
SGA was better for a big portion of this season… Luka has been better since January 1. You can look at all the numbers on that. And I’d argue Luka’s degree of difficulty is significantly higher.
To be clear I didn’t have Luka over SGA for MVP going into tonight. I still probably don’t. But it’s gotten extremely close.
how dare you respond to the troll with more than 7 words
1st now
