@LegionHoops @LAIreland @LakersDailyCom @Fullcourtpass You mean the guy can run.

REPORT: Luka Doncic hasn’t begun running and is not close to returning, per @LAIreland (h/t @LakersDailyCom, @Fullcourtpass)

@sasabonsamsnr @PlayoffLAL Additions: After every victory I glady garner all the accolades. I destroy team offensive chemistry. When a W is in sight I love displaying intimate snottiness to my fellow competitor.

@PlayoffLAL I have ZERO RINGS AND MVPS💀 I dribble the entire ⏰ out  I shoot bad shots 💔 I foul bait 😭 I love complaining to the refs🔥 I can’t play defense 🥀 I’m slow as FUCK 💔 They won a playoff series w/o me 😭😭✌️ My kids don't love me😭 My wife left me😭 Who am I?😭✌️

LeBron did his part. Time to step up Luka

@CookedBySteph Blind.

Luka is better than Chokic all time He’s beaten 4x as many 50+ win teams as Chokic and didn’t get punked by the Wolves

@AJsHoopHype Certain that the Slovenian national team players would be happy to NOT see the ball hogging Doncic roll in to gather all of the team accolades.

If Luka ever wants to win a chip he’s going to have to sacrifice playing hoops for his country during the summer. I 100000000% believe that’s why his body starts to break down late in the season.

@RedickGotNext Lest we forget, game 3 NBA finals Mavs/Celtics. Doncic stinks up court - 12-26 4-12 1 A 4 TO.

“Better than Luka bro”

@LeBron__legacy They're only a team with LeBron pg. With Doncic it's no D, hero ball with few scraps for rest of the team. Certain teammates rue the day of his return.

This Lakers team with Luka & Reaves can beat OKC bro I’m confident, we’re that good.

@twowayshai Bad news for his teammates, Doncic will return. Just a qtr of his ball hogging will destroy all the team chemistry built during his absence.

Luka-led teams are now 3-1 without him in the playoffs. Does Luka truly not have help or is his playstyle simply just not conducive to winning?

@LegionHoops @StephNoh @TheNBABase Seems quite reasonable.

A group of media members, league insiders, and scouts were polled on the best player in the world: — Nikola Jokic: 35 votes — SGA: 10 votes — Wemby: 8 votes — Luka Doncic: 0 votes — Giannis: 0 votes (via @StephNoh, h/t @TheNBABase)

@Lakers Ball hogger extroidinaire.

Scoring champion. Top three in assists per game. Two-time Player of the Month. Four-time Player of the Week. Numbers don’t lie.

@LALexcptionalst Set all time record for ball hogging and styfling his teammate's attitude toward the game.

The fact you see fans upset Luka was granted an exception tells you all you need to know. The Lakers are a 4 seed, neck and neck with 3. Not a single player or coach on our team won any awards. What Luka did this season was incredible. It deserves to go down in the record books.

@2timeiy6874h @SloHoopsFan Truly amazing what you can do without the 2 ball hogs.

@SloHoopsFan Lebron is out there carrying!

We have to beat the Suns, no excuses.

@eienBerg1 @lockerroomla Doncic doesn't have any idea how to play off ball. Hro ball is allhe knows.

@lockerroomla No need to trade Luka or Reeves, if they accept LeBron as their point guard the Lakers are in good hands, minimize Luka turn over.

Luka and that other quitter ASStin Reaves need to stay gone. Don’t come back. This team has depth but the guys can’t show it because of the 2 ball hogs. Trade Luka and Austin for Giannis this summer and resign LeBron.

@lockerroomla Great post. The 2 ball hogs will come back & stifle LeBron's smooth running passing game offense.

@501dentist @SloHoopsFan I assume your post is a Doncic post. His flopping is all time.................

@SloHoopsFan King of flopping King of choking King of blaming King of quitting King of ducking competition King of complaining.

If LeBron ducks OKC, his case for top 10 all time is basically gone. He has to man up and play, and secure the homecourt for the Lakers. You can’t call yourself ‘the King’ and then bail when the team needs you. Mike and Kobe weren’t quitters, neither is Luka.

@SloHoopsFan so, exactly how much is Doncic paying you to sput BS daily?

@LakeShowYo 5-17, 1-5 Doncic like.

Lakers found their big man of the future LUKE KENNARD HAD 16 REBOUNDS TODAY 🔥🔥

@DantheLakersFAN Won 7 games without Doncic

Luka definitely the MVP, look at this team without him and obviously Reaves but especially him!!

@Jacobtheclipper Doncic does every game

“Bron put up great stats- not his fault they lost” Meanwhile if you watch the game you see him miss a layup then not play defense hoping to get a cherry pick layup. Bron’s stats are useless because this is what he does every game. Net NEGATIVE player ✌️

@LakeShowYo He is 'carrying the ball' MVP for sure.

We about to find out tho the real MVP is 🗣️

@PolymarketHoops @buckets Solid yellow not a good color for the overweight.

Luka Doncic has reportedly lost 38 pounds since the end of last season 😳 (h/t @buckets)
