[Highlight] Luka hits a step back 3 for his 15th 40 point game of the season
Luka just dropped out of the top 10 in mvp race
If he keeps this up the Lakers will ship him back to Spain by the time the Playoffs start.
lol
His March has been insane.
his whole season has been insane
I don’t disagree, but this has been his most consistent shooting stretch overall. He’s also been playing pretty solid defense since the ASB.
i agree that he has improved as the season has gone on, yeah. his calendar year is bonkers.
You can’t just rewrite history like that. He was really struggling at the beginning with multiple turnovers and shooting in the low 30% from 3. It wasn’t out of the ordinary to see him with 5 turnovers and around 32%. Edit: I remember why I don’t post in sports subs - nothing but brain dead people who won’t look at a stat, or try to make it fit the narrative. Ya’ll need a basic education. 43.7% FG in November and 44.1% FG in December. 3-pount was 33.6% and 28.9. But you want to say his whole season has been insanely good? Learn how to read numbers.
in october and november (before he was out for a few games) he averaged 35⁄8.7⁄9 with 2 stocks on 61% TS% and 4 TOs a game. be for real lol, he “struggled” by his standards in December and that was it, the start of his season was insane
You’re saying 43.7% FG% in November is good? You’re saying 33.6 3-point is good? That was November. While December was short, he averaged 44 and 28.9%. How about you actually look at the stats instead of just posting. You clearly don’t know what the heck you’re talking about. So how about you just move-on and accept you are wrong. That is not good by anyone’s standards, and if you think so, you just got something for the man and aren’t paying attention to his play. They said the season has been insane - I guess you could say the statement is true, because that is insanely bad. Edit: Boohoo - hurt feeling downvotes because you’re wrong. Always in these subs.
35 ppg on 61% TS is amazing and efficient, who cares about FG% in 2026
Oh, so you’re that kind of dumb. Okay. You think that 28.9 3point-percent doesn’t matter and still makes his whole year great. I think we’re done here then. Edit: Also, I watched those games. I even made a comment in a thread how his game was becoming unwatchable - there were so many flops, or just looking for the foul rather than the score. This is from a Luka fan. I watched him and Dallas and then L.A. His game is great again - like it was in Dallas, but the start of the year was just hard to watch his game.
So hard to watch those efficient 40 point games from a player you supposedly like 👍
You don’t understand basic words, math, or basketball so keep on being you. 👍
Troll better next time
he averaged 40 at the beginning of the season, what are you on about
You’re saying 43.7% FG% in November is good? You’re saying 33.6 3-point is good? That was November. While December was short, he averaged 44 and 28.9%. How about you actually look at the stats instead of just posting. What are you on about? You clearly don’t know what the heck you’re talking about. They said he played insane all year - that is not insane. That is just bad for anyone’s standards. Edit: Boohoo - hurt feeling downvotes because you’re wrong. Always in these subs.
Cute how you dodged the fact that he opened the year casually dropping 40 a night. Yeah, his November splits dipped, but calling his impact ‘bad’ just screams ‘I only read box scores.’ When his shot was off, he clamped down and played the best defense of his career to keep us winning. Watch the games.
Edit: just want to add that even when his shot dipped a bit, he shot through it and has still led the lakers in scoring in 55⁄61 games so far this season including tonight, and taking a fat steaming dump on the rest of the league in offensive output.
Yes it’s time to spread the propaganda people. We all know these media heads don’t watch games and only read reddit comments. Wish I was joking!
I watched the games. They were a chore with constant foul baiting and getting too angry. Cute how I’m responding to someone saying he was insane all season. So if there was a dip, how was it insane all season? Doesn’t that mean you’re saying I’m right? If he shot under 30 from 3 in December, how is that insane? I’m not saying he’s not good now. Can you read? Point out where I said that. I’m talking about the start of the season he said wasn’t playing how he should.
Are you a bot? Do you know russian?
Is that a retort? I don’t even know if you meant to reply to me or not. I’m pretty sure you’re the one dodging questions. Thanks for letting me know I’m right though! There was a dip. Let me know if you need help reading the rest of my post. I can tell you can’t read since you didn’t show me where I said he is bad now. I can recommend some great learning to read picture books if you’d like. Just let me know.
I’m not obligated to respond to all of your fantasies bud. Have a good night night though, enjoy those efficiency stats!

Another low IQ man-baby in a sports reddit. Name a more iconic duo. lmao that’s the best you had. You all are pathetic. I know you have a thing for the guy, as hard as you are defending him, but Luka does have some faults. You need to get over your little teenage crush and see that he had some bad moments along with the good.
You can even say we’re seeing a “March Madness” from Luka, even
Best scorer in the game?
He’s been the best scorer of the 2020s by a mile, imo calling him a top 10 scorer of all time already wouldn’t be a stretch
And it sounds crazy but he’s done this for over 7 years in the most offensively skilled era the sport has seen.
He is #1 in points in the 2020s now.. he passed Giannis this season
I mean SGA scores more points per 36 on much better efficiency. Not sure how Luka is a better scorer
And the most DOGSHIT defense era. But i get your point
Yes
Literally got the wind kicked outta him and said Bet and did a walk off dagger step back three, that’s tough as shit man. My MvP
I knew he was gonna do that shit. He gets like a +20% shooting buff after someone fucks with him
I remember watching Kobe in January of 2006 as a kid thinking that was the greatest individual month of scoring I’d ever see. Then here comes Luka
Not a triple double nor the defender jokic is, drop him 2 spots
Oh this is going to drop him further on the MVP ladder.
This won’t, but the suspension he picked up today will
his 3pt shot after that slump has been so good
It was funny that people are still not used to Luka starting the season off a little slow, slumping in december/january and then powering the fuck up from march untill playoffs end.
It happens every year it seems like.
Can’t let u/ nba know you screen recording
15 40 pt games? 15th in the mvp ranking
That’s a blocking foul btw
Hold that 40 ball
Scoring 40 on the Nets was always allowed lol
Piss off refs were on your side all night
Usually FT discrepancy is a worthless stat because it shows which team was more aggressive. But the Nets were more aggressive downhill tonight.
After getting paint touches every possession and getting 1⁄3 the FTA of the Lakers, you gotta be trolling with that bullshit.
2nd in MVP voting
4th my guy get with the program
Edit 1. or gal sorry i dont know
Edit 2. or maybe youre not guy or gal so whatever pronoun you prefer
No, 2nd
Guards, have this man touched immediately
yes please touch me :3
Yes, because Wemby is 1st.
Nah, it’s because Shai finishes 1st in MVP voting
A troll, a loser and delusional, you’re collecting it all huh
Someone told me there’s a Virgin of the Year award for this subreddit, and I want it
You can share it with FTA then.
Can we share MVP too then?
All yours, I don’t wait for Luka posts in this sub all day just to post loser behavior comments.
Thank you good sir, I’m make sure to fashion a nice shiny trophy out of cardboard just for me
