Gets to the finals while beating 3 50+ win teams, has a chest contusion, sprained knee and a injured thigh. His co-star and role players forgets how to play basketball half the games and the first thing the media has to talk about is Luka's attitude. All right guys, try make your narrative a little less obvious
-
I hate National Media debate questions
-
Took a 5th seed assembled at the trade deadline through an absolutely stacked Western conference and got beat by the overwhelming favorites the whole year? Come on…
-
Saying Luka is a Messi fan is blasphemy
-
Windy posture hurts my back
-
Luka was in the same shape when he destroyed ANT man. WTH is SA talking about?
-
This is literally his first finals appearance like let’s just calm down
-
Dirk managed to change his conditioning mid career. Luka can too. It's all about motivation.
-
IDC, Klay went 0-10 in an elimination game
-
Props to Luka, he played pretty well going through multiple injuries at once. As a Celtics fan, I salute him.
-
Stephen a’s problem is body shape not the fact that no one helped Luka until game 4 like what are we doing
-
Dude keeps mentioning Messi, Luka is a Real Madrid fan so it would be Cristiano ffs.
-
Luka was in the NBA finals. All other teams were sitting home. Lukas image is not tarnished.
-
I've never seen LeBron, KD, or Steph out of shape
-
The elephant in the room isn't Luka's conditioning, It's his knees bleeding through his knee pads. That is not a good sign at all.
-
It didnt tarnish anything…it takes time to get over the hump
-
Messi is crazy 😂 Windy is lowkey the funniest analyst in FT
-
Did you guys watch the game Luka’s stats are deceiving, bro still played bad, holds the ball for way to long, had 7 turnover only 8 points in the half, if y’all watched the game, Lukas points came from just scoring end of the third and end of the forth when they were already losing by 25 and the game was already decided on top of that he takes like 27 shots.

Mavs Over Achieved was a great run for them 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
-
Messi? Yes I’m sure a massive Real Madrid fan would love to hear from a Barcelona legend
