I understand your point Trevor but the Laker FO has made it clear that they don’t care about this season so maybe Luka feels the same way.
Time to activate Slava Medvedenko
Hate NBA tanking, time management, and phantom injuries.
trev: heres some more bad news about the lakers. Now heres some more negativity.
For the All-Star Game, The NBA should appoint Reaves, as a replacement for Luka
Sochan to the Knicks 😐
The NBA should eliminate back-to-back games.
Really hard to watch those games now. Going nowhere playing for nothing.
Le Bron should not be evaluated as a competitor against Luka or Reaves. Le Bron suffers from basketball skills dementia. And, he's twice as old.
Reaves struggled against OKC because he was being double teamed and his teammates were not helping him with screens. He was being pushed back toward the center line, with no help. Plus, he didn't start the game. He was playing 50% of each quarter, which is tough to deal with. So called experts, talk about he's an all-star when he goes 35 points in 22 minutes, and he should be traded when he just gets 16 against OKC.
Just In Rob Pelinka Missed Jeremy Sochan now he is going to sign with the NY Knicks once Clear Waivers. Bufkin will ride on the bench the whole season
All this means that Lucas going to be at the All-Star game. That doesn't mean he's going to play at the All-Star game. Relax
lets be honest the front office showed there true colors at the trade deadline. they dont care to win
Last game was like playing chess blind
Just sit out Luka
Tanking ass team with injured players…Bron will play..no Wemby or Giannis..he good
Thank you Lebron for 23 years, it's time to go and let the lakers use the money you make to keep Austin R and bring 2 more badly needed players.
So this is what the, fourth game overall DA's missed with a "sore knee." Sure sounds like he's dealing with a balky knee that they don't want to be specific about. Sounds like tendinopathy.
you are so right about Luka i agree
Lakers tanking with LeBron and Luka on the team is insane. Not trading their 1st to improve the roster at the deadline, and then wasting a roster spot on a player that cannot help this season is nasty work. They could've easily acquired Ayo for a 1st. Haywood Highsmith would've been the smart choice for the final roster spot. They are doing LeBron and Luka dirty and I'm sick of it. Another wasted season.
Rest bron… give bronny more minutes 🎯
Yeah Luka playing in the ASG is BS.
Lakers fans are absolutely losing their minds watching Cam Thomas go off for 34 points last night and now seeing Jeremy Sochan signing with the Knicks. The next few months are going to be very interesting
Agree wholeheartedly with your take on Luka. If he plays in the All Star games and tweaks his hammy, all Hell will break loose.
Trevor utah won it wasnt accidental the players tried to win and won.
Lakers have to play well to beat the Mavericks. The Mavericks ateent going to try to lose tonight.
They'll be happy with the next to last spot in the playoffs again…..
Lakers need to study how the cavs get sam merrels shots, guy shot 9/10 from 3 against the wizards. Luke is our sam!
LeBron is THE BIGGEST problem in those "SUPERSTAR" combinations. Reaves' and Luka's terrible defense does not hurt as bad as LEBRON's putrid defense playing the 4 or the 3. Bad defense from the 1 and 2 position is not the end of the world. But if your PF is a Traffic Cone every posession is unsustainable. Worst when you have those 3 CONES standing in lineups
Kobe is in heaven shaking his head at these wimps and their un-Mamba mentality.
JJ you are on your own you either want help are you loose your job are you can get help and remain as the coach for the Lakers a very long time something has to give trade Ayton .
Swear that game check should be sufficient inspiration to play hard
Can’t play today but playing in the all star game? Luka respect -10
Jj jr just went out too …. What a weak year
Trevor you saw what they were doing with Ars return . He’s was good to go till 10 min before the game but then was healthy enough for the next one ….. lakers corny for how they handle injury management . Opposite of Kobe’s culture
"Not trying to point a finger", but here let me just point a spotlight
If you miss a game within 2 weeks of the all star game you should be disqualified from the all star Game
Gang! Whatever is best for the morherfuking lakers❤
LUKA was voted in by the fans. He'll play in the ALLSTAR GAME 7:19
I’ll be at the game tonight but am so bummed about Luka and Flagg not playing…..
And who cares how you feel about it. Your not a Luka fan and never have been.
Glad it is not your call.
Trevor, enough of the meaningless stats.
This is why we have to get giannis another top 6 player . Luka game isn’t going to age well without another elite guy that has gravity
