The Luka Doncic Disrespect Has Gone TOO FAR



The Luka Doncic Disrespect Has Gone TOO FAR

Okay is there anyone in the NBA you think is overrated gets too much height that he doesn’t deserve I think Luca overrated you think Luca’s overrated yeah when he first came into the league cuz I’m like all it is is step back threes and they be short as hell he

Shooting like 27% 30% it was their assistant coach he started to triing in the first quarter so they didn’t like when I Tri back now they said play basketb if they’re going to Tri at me I’m going to Tri back I a scared Luca donic is one of the those

Players that you either love or hate he is so good that you are going to admire him or hate on him because he humiliated your favorite team with him being a cool and funny guy a great ball player and most recently a father to baby Gabriella

It is more likely that you’re going to find a reason to like Luca however there have also been some critics around him for his lack of effort on the defensive end and maybe a little too much complaining to the referees such things that have gained him some hate as well

Let’s see what kind of hate Luca has gotten from around the NBA former NBA this season people are seeing donic carry the Dallas Mavericks basically single-handedly which has drawn comparisons with James Harden stint with the Houston Rockets former NBA player Jamal Crawford pointed out the hypocrisy about this topic on Inside the NBA

Crawford is curious why fans are more concerned about getting help for the Mavs All-Star player while Harden got hate from fans and experts alike first of all Harden why is it that we don’t give him his respect the stuff you see with Luca donic doing right now you go

Back and look Harden is doing all the same things why do we not give James Harden his love when he was doing all the same numbers in Houston Harden was in the Western Conference Finals multiple times and even was one game away from reaching the finals he should

Get his love it’s not that people didn’t appreciate Harden for the success he had in Houston but more so his style of play yes there were people that criticized Harden for his lack of performance in some crucial playoff moments but to be honest that criticism was welld deserved

It is not like Luca doesn’t have his criticizers as well NBA fans aren’t very patient and once they see you stagnate at the same level they are going to bring it up every chance they get that is just the way it is especially with star players Devin Booker may as well be

Luca’s biggest rival the two always seem to go at each other although Luca doesn’t really respect the way Booker seems to be talking only when the games are decided and in his favor tempers between the two raised again in their matchup in the playoffs as they got into

Each other’s faces late in the fourth after the game in which Dallas lost donic was asked about the Dust up with Booker to which he said there were no hard feelings before taking a small shot at Phoenix’s star guard it’s a competitive game it’s all good next time

Just don’t wait until there’s 3 seconds left to talk said the ms’s Superstar of Devon Booker while Luca seems to be fine with some trash talk the maverick star encouraged Booker to start talking before the game is out of hand this is not the first time that Luca called out

Booker for this late game Trash Talk as he famously said that everybody is talking when they are up after the Suns blew the Mavs out in game five of the 2022 Western Conference semifinals on the other side Devon enjoys the Rivalry as well yeah it’s just two competitors

Going at it everybody speaks on how friendly the NBA is now and don’t like that I have no problem with Luca on or off the court but when we’re competing we’re competing if there is one weakness in Luca’s game that would be his defense often times teams try to attack him

While they are on off defense as it was the case in the game between the Clippers and Mavs when Russ continuously encouraged his teammates to attack Luca Westbrook being guarded by donic took advantage of the situation by aggressively driving to the basket on one possession he went straight at donic

Who was sagging off and easily maneuvered past him for a layup in the following possessions Westbrook continued his attack drawing a foul from donic and converting one of two free throws in another sequence Westbrook backed donic down in the post and attempted a tough shot that was blocked

But he secured the offensive rebound and made the layup not only did Russ demonstrate his ability to score against donic but also urged his teammates to follow suit after making a successful shot Westbrook pointed at donic shouting go after him signaling his teammates to exploit Don’s defensive vulnerabilities

There is no doubt that Luca is a generational talent but if he wants to take the team to the next level he has got to work on his defensive skills NBA superstars are often judged by their ability to impact the game on multiple fronts and as donic continues to mature

In his career investing time and effort into defensive development will be a key factor in shaping his legacy in the league Basketball Hall of Famer Tim Hardaway senior the father of Maverick’s guard Tim Hardaway Jr probably caused some uncomfortable atmosphere in the Mavericks locker room when he ripped

Kyrie Irving and Luca donich for their lack of leadership skills during an appearance on the carton show they’re missing a leader out there Luca is not a leader and Kyrie is not a leader Jaylen Brunson was a leader a leader shows by example by playing defense when he says

Something he does it also and that’s what a leader is and like I said those two guys are not leaders they’re complimentary dominant great basketball players great scorers hardaway’s perspective is interesting because one could surmise he has inside knowledge of the locker room Dynamics thanks to his

Son however it was not very wise of him to say those comments out loud as it probably brought up some discomfort between the Mavs players although they claimed that the team’s chemistry and the respect between the players were not affected by the comments after it was announced donic will sit out the

Maverick’s following game against the Grizzlies Brooks told reporters it goes to show that sometimes they ain’t ready to come back to a physical game donic suffered a thigh injury in the third quarter of Dallas’s previous game against the New Orleans Pelicans and was ruled out for some time until the

Discomfort went away Brooks is always doing his best to become every opposing team’s biggest villain he bragged about how much the Grizzlies appear to be in the head of the Golden State Warriors following the game between the two teams they don’t ever forget when they won the championship they were talking about us

They don’t ever forget who the Memphis Grizzlies are they get up and they can’t wait to play us this type of energy brings out the best of Luca instead of intimidating him though in their last matchup Luca was just shy of a 40-point triple double against Dylan’s new team

The Houston Rockets finishing the game with 41 points nine rebounds and nine assists after the game Luca admitted that he loves playing against Dylan Brooks and really respects his energy at the end of the day that’s what it is all about the Dallas Mavericks recently secured a victory against the Utah Jazz

Marked by Luca donic historic 60th career triple double however the historic night was marred by a taunting incident as Chris Dunn confronted donit resulting in both players receiving technical fouls the altercation unfolded in the third quarter when Dunn who was assigned to guard donic took issue with Luka’s moves in response Luca

Provocatively laughed at him leading to the technical fouls a video of Luca went viral when he told the referees that he didn’t do nothing but Dunn is mad because he is busting his ass after the game Luca talked a bit about the situation I didn’t do anything we were I

Mean a little bit of pushing in that but for sure there is a technical foul cuz I didn’t do nothing he puts a finger in my face and I just left so I don’t know how I got the tech these things happen in the game it’s part of the game after a

Maverick’s collapse against the Los Angeles Lakers Jason kid called out his team’s immaturity and lengthy gripes with officials which was obviously a nod toward his young star Luca donic coach kid opened up about the team’s maturity or lack thereof by publicly criticizing Luca for his relationship with the

Officials while also explaining why he only called one time out when the Lakers were on a run I’m not the Savior here I’m not playing I’m watching just like you guys as a team we’ve got got to mature and we’ve got a lot of new bodies

Coming back and we’ve got to grow up if we want to win a championship there’s no young team that’s ever won a championship mentally or physically we have got to work on our maturity can’t get distracted with the whistle kid also made a great point which could serve as

Advice to Luca the officials they tend not to stop the game to change calls so you have to understand that there’s a point in time during games dead balls to be able to talk to officials if we’re lobbying for calls during live play it puts us In Harm’s Way Luca seems to be

Aware that his complaining has gotten out of hand as he received criticism during his time with the Slovenian national team at both the 2022 Euro basket and the 2023 World Cup once he cooled down Don’s response to his coach’s comments was short Jak kid he’s

Got a point and I’ve got to stop doing that Luca accepts constructive criticism and that is one of the reasons why he has been improving so much throughout his career While most fans and media seem to blame the Maverick’s Supporting Cast when the team falls short Reggie

Miller took the other route and found Luca to be guilty mostly due to his lack of conditioning let’s face it Luca needs to start looking in the mirror a little bit too right I hate to throw this all on Kyrie Luca needs to kind of look at

Himself and ask what could I have done better I think a lot of times if you watch Maverick’s games and the Antics and talking to the officials and this is coming from a guy who stayed on the officials myself sometimes that wears on them that wears on them it really does

Just looking at it from afar are at times I just think the officials were tuning him out Luca’s got to get in better shape they’ve got to run more and I think they did that when Luca was out and Kyrie was at the helm because they’re much better when they play

Faster that’s how Jason kid wants to coach he wants them to play faster but when Luca is in there they can’t play fast to me if he’s in better shape and they can play fast that puts more pressure on the opposing team Denver nuggets’ star Michael Porter Jr was

Drafted 14th overall in the same draft class as Luca his time in the NBA has unfortunately been riddled with injuries missing a lot of regular season games so far in his career back in 2019 he liked a few comments regarding the Rookie of the Year race between Luca and Trey

Young saying that Luca is overrated fans quickly made a story out of this and it spread quickly Luca’s teammate in Real Madrid Dino rones tweeted that a Euroleague MVP can’t be overrated but an injured player who has played five college games can be once this tweet became a newsworthy topic Porter was

Quick to add some comments for the media so what’s crazy is that this blew up because believe it or not I’m scrolling through Instagram and I see the post about the Rookie of the Year odds and I accidentally like a comment this is the Euroleague MVP and I got nothing but

Respect for him I didn’t want this to come off like that Michael also added that he reached out to Luca to tell him that this was 100% an accident however Luca has never actually talked on the topic Dennis Smith Jr is an athletic guard who was a teammate of Luca on the

Mavs he was selected one draft prior to Luca with the ninth overall pick in 2017 he seemed like the young guy that the Mavs were going to build around after Dirk’s retirement however with Luca’s arrival things changed Luca immediately stole the spotlight and was given the

Keys to the Mavs offense while we can debate if Porter’s hate for Luca is real or not Dennis Smith Jr’s hate is definitely real due to jealousy it kind of makes sense from his point of view as he was promised to be the next franchise

Guy but a year later the Mavs traded for a guy that plays his position on the court to make matters worse as Luca proved to be a sure thing in the NBA and the pairing of the two didn’t quite work the Mavs traded Smith junior to the

Knicks however both Luca and Dennis have denied that there is any Envy between the two even though it seemed different while they were playing together Luke Walton is an ex-nba player who is currently an assistant coach in Cleveland Luke was also the head coach coach for the Kings from 2019 up until

2021 in a game between the Kings and the Mavs Walton got a technical after he yelled at Luca to give the referee an autograph because he’s a fan of his after the game donit told the media that Walton also added some stuff that donic didn’t like however Walton denied this

In his postgame interview saying that he has all the respect for Luca and his game he got what he wanted tonight wherever he wanted I wasn’t saying anything to him I don’t know if he thought I said something to him he’s a great player he had a great game and led

His team to Victory you’ve got to give him credit nothing but praise for him as a player another X NBA player associated with the Kings at the time when Luke Walton was the head coach is former member of the showtime Lakers dich whose hate toward Luca is transgenerational as

He supposedly doesn’t like Luca’s father as well it is well known that the Kings passed on Luca with the second overall pick in 2018 drafting Marvin baggley the third over him what is less known however is the reason behind it D who was the king’s GM at the time passed on

Luca because he didn’t like Luca’s father who dvat thought was overprotective of Luca and would be a similar figure to what Lavar ball was for Lonzo Tim McMahon once said on a podcast that devich reason for skipping on Luca in the draft was because he knew

His dad very well devach as close as he was to Luca my understanding is that they were honed in on baggley by at least March and my understanding is that him being so close to Luca and knowing his dad so well factored into their decision basically he didn’t think a

Whole lot of Luca’s dad and then the whole like father like son moment came up I don’t know this is a different dude if dvet had put his feelings to the side the Kings would have had a back court of dearon fox and Luca donic right now and

God knows what the two of them would be capable of safe to say you messed that one up Dage well there you have it obviously most of the critics in the chirping have been respectful as Luca has shown what kind of greatness he is made of on numerous occasions he has

Earned his respect love and glorifying comments but sometimes people need to comment on the bad things as well if the critics are constructive and the Rivalry is competitive Luca respects it as well and takes notes that is how he grows as a player as well with him only being 24

The sky is definitely the limit it is going to be fun to see what the future holds for him

  1. Why does it sound like a chatGPT made this video? Also Luka has improved defensively he had 4 steals 3 blocks vs Suns.

    The Westbrook thing was one play late in the game where he was already tired from playing 40+ minutes, meanwhile westbrook is fresh coming off bench

  2. Tim Hardaway Sr is a punk hating ass baby mad because Luka is the greatest basketball player in the world!

  3. Haters gonna hate, Black players current and ex, just cant handle that the 2 best players in the league are WHITE , and punking everyone……. if it was for Luka and Jokic, nobody would be watching the NBA, which turned into a big rap video, playground pickup game..

  4. Ohh we take NBA from American black players that's what hurt them in general players don't have problem with that but everybody else have,and things will not change for better for Americans we see in many sports where they was dominant force for long time now they don't have nothing if don't count NFL and just American sports who nobody else in the world play!

  5. They want a āš«ļø player, always been like that.

    Luka is killing the NBA, don’t get mad.

  6. KD's clip is out of context, that's disrespectful. He was literally saying he thought his game was all step back 3s and hitting 27% and then goes onto saying when he played against him, he saw how real and great Luka was.

  7. I can’t stand the Luka defense narrative. Find some better substance, the man literally plays defense after every made shot if you just watch the games. You want him to be the O cap and the D cap?? lol. Go find some other basketball YT channel to watch guys.

  8. Americans mad because Europeans players are dominating the nba. Don’t know the last time an American was top 3 in the mvp conversation.

  9. I think we need to let players exist in their own space Luka is a is a phenomenon look at his stats case closed
    The rest is just smoke

  10. A great player, e.g., Luka, adds something every season or so until their bones get old. (LeBron just might be a robot.) His FT and 3 % are up through December. He’s great but getting greater, like Joker and Embiid. All the criticisms or ā€œdisrespectā€ cited here are sometimes fair game—eg Westbrook. (The title of this clip is bait, but the actual analysis is not bad.) Maybe L will get better at D, by which I mean smarter, but he does play D sometimes. He harasses and gets steals and occasional blocks. Cutting way down on complaining to refs is another goal. Interesting that Vlade Divac doesn’t like Luka’s dad. (I’m not sure what I think of L’s parents, but I don’t care so much.)

  11. Technically dirty basketball elements. dribbling while holding the ball, walking dribble, etc. This is very noticeable when watching Lukas play. Lukas' "genius" moves would not be possible if the judges really required the basic elements of basketball to be executed cleanly. This problem is not unique in the NBA, but Luka has taken such dirty basketball to an even higher level.

  12. Tons of talent but is he a person who will lead his team into greatness? I doubt that.
