Luka Doncic has averaged 43 PPG in his last 6 while shooting 68% TS
He’s also scored 40 or more points this season more often than he has less. So far so great, arguably the best start to a season ever
10% of the season done and he is averaging 38/8/8 on 69% TS
Wilt/Mj type stat
in December 23-January 24, he averaged 37.3 points, 10.8 assists and 9.0 rebounds in 23 games. If he can keep this up for 10 more games maybe it will be a better stretch
I think his efficiency is better now right, has to be. Hes been hitting all his 3s and FTs
I think you’re probably right
He also didn’t play in the 4th in game 1
The rim must be the size of an ocean for him atp.
43% from 3 with his shot diet is absurd man hes taken turn around 3s at the top of key multiple times lmao
lmaooo and someone just made a post saying Wemby was “unquestionably the best player in the world”
That was literally a Lakers fan lmao
This MVP talk is driving people insane
shit is crazy🤣
Wemby is undoubtedly talented but there’s nobody better than Luka at playing basketball rn
Wemby went off but like..PJ Washington was the Mavs’ tallest guy on the court for the majority of it and Mavs almost won it. It took Kyrie to go 9⁄27 too 😭
(Flagg is taller but pj is like the C)
That’s not Wemby’s fault at all tho. Spurs were doing some actual basketball terrorism
Is defense not a part of basketball?
Well, good thing most agree Luka has been playing very good defense while having a historic, goat-level offensive season
Good for him, doesn’t make up for the difference in impact when Wemby is the best defender in the history of the sport by a wide margin while also having the ability to put up 50 point games on offense.
Luka has been pretty good at that this season so yeah it’s important for sure.
Luka has and always will be a traffic cone.
Luka has been playing good defense as well.
Keep dreaming blud. Defense is also a part of playing basketball.
Lol like being 7ft+ and being good at defence is some sort of achievement 🤣
If you don’t care about defensive impact, perhaps.
this level of proud casualness and ignorance of ball is cringe tbh🤭
Ok, zoomer.
43ppg while being one of the best playmakers ever
Idk about unquestionably but he certainly has a good argument.
It’s always a fucking competition with y’all
To so confidently claim otherwise, especially on a night where wemby scored 52 and got 24 boards is laughable.
So do luka glazers really convince themselves that defense doesn’t matter?
Cause it turns out not only can wemby do what he did tonight in the stat sheet, but he breaks the game on defense too. Luka can’t really compete with the defensive impact.
Just because Wemby had an elite scoring game tonight doesn’t mean he’s gonna do it every night. He’s below 60 TS for this season which isn’t great for a center. Luka’s averaging 39 on 68% TS so far. Yes they’re in different stratospheres defensively, but Luka’s a significantly better offensive player.
He is. Defense exists and Wemby is maybe the best of all time on that end.
You cannot touch wemby, he’s softer than sga. Not questioning his impact defensively, his offence is very raw . I just watched the refs hand the game to spurs like a baby. Also Kai sold but ref ball was dirty.
Luka benefits from officiating more than any player in the league. He’s awesome but come on bro.
Mercifully this will drop his MVP odds
Getting 40+ seems so normal for him right now, like some games it doesn’t even seem like he is playing that well, but you look up the box score and he has 40-7-7 lol
I have never seen someone score 40 points in an NBA game more easily than him. It feels like he’s just sleepwalking out there and you look up and he’s got 26/6/4 at halftime
What’s crazy is that.. he was also going crazy at the end of last season before he got hurt. So if he keeps this up.. I mean this is just an insane stretch. Somewhere from 36 to 38 ppg is what he’ll probably avg this seaspn
March run is still going. He might just be carrying on from where he left off after exiting the okc game.
If he’s carrying on from that March run, the league should be very, very worried. He was looking like the best player in the world night in night out
The Lakers aren’t good.
Yeah, Luka being Luka atm is hiding a lot of their weaknesses. If he even regresses to his old 2025 self then they will quickly lose a fair few more games.
Him getting into shape really boosted his stats. Who knew…
The crazy thing is that unless he’s the 1 seed, then they’ll just give the MVP to Wemby. He’s undeniably an MVP caliber player and I won’t be too upset if Wemby wins it, but it feels like it’ll be impossible for Luka to win MVP regardless of what he does unless his team finishes with a great record. Which is BS considering it feels very common for the Lakers to be +20 when he’s on the court and -10 when he’s off.
Idk I feel like the lakers can actually finish higher than spurs, spurs drop a lot of games they should be winning and Luka stat pads on the shit teams so lakers just needed get some tough wins against the top teams
Yeah he’s having an absurdly good start.
He’s pretty good! 😊
Divorce Luka ya’ll
How many reddit posts per night v. Sub .500 team?
Wemby is a scrub compared to Luka. Not even close
Chill. Both are generational
King shit. Averaging 43 while giving up 44 blow-bys per game.
No way we’re doing this bro
Don’t bother arguing with haters.
Casual who doesn’t watch the games 😂
I only watch the playoffs, so I don’t see many Laker games.
Lakers literally made it to Round 2 and further than GS
You ain’t watching any games lol
Warriors didn’t even make the playoffs 😭
I’m getting baited but I gotta say it anyway: they’ve made the playoffs more recently than the Warriors bro
so you havent watched any nba in the past year? considering warriors dont make it to the playoffs
how long has it been since you watched your team then?
Guess you don’t watch any Warriors games either.
Warriors flair?
Wait you you just admitted you dont watch basketball and think its a flex lmao 😂
He’s been fine on defense
That’s not true
how many blowbys do you give per day
