  1. Keep platforming Nico's senile mouthpiece. Had every opportunity to promote Luka in national media but all he did was slander and insult him as an ESPN journalist. Now that he's gone he keeps making money off him. What a disgusting excuse of a human being is Tim.

  2. Platforming Tim is a shameless move after everyone knowing that hes a paid shill for the front office

  3. Luka is gonna turn into Arvydas Sabonis, when Sabonis was drafted in '95. Go back to Slovenia Luka.

  4. The weight excuse is a joke– it didn't stop him from being first-team all NBA for 5 years. Nico fiasco will never get another job in basketball.

  5. Tim was bad even when he was working for Dallas Morning News. You have to remember that his media credentials were revoked by Cuban for reporting false stories. And, recently Luka expressed frustrations on Tim's biased reporting regarding a fan interaction.

  6. 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 all these homers thinking Flagg or some other player is going to change anything. With these lying disrespectful and arrogant dumbass owners and the master narcissist GM this franchise doesn't deserve a fanbase! They proved to everyone they DO NOT CARE what the fans think.

  7. What I don't understand is how can a player lead the league in minutes played, regular season and playoffs, put up historical numbers and have his front office complain about his conditioning. That just doesn't make any sense at all. Luka said in his Lakers press conference that this was the first time he took enough time to get healthy after an injury. He always came back too soon before that. MacMahon should've focused on that part of the story much more than the front office lies about conditioning of a player who led the NBA in minutes played.

  8. NGL. been watching some Lakers game to see Luka's play, one thing keep coming up the more I watch. Why the hell Nico get Max Christie not Austin Reaves!!! I really doubt Pelinka will said no, that's a deal breaker!
