I'm a Jazz fan, and I'll definitely be rooting for the Lakers. It's fun to see a 40 year old man playing like a superstar and Doncic is going to more motivated than ever.

Well you can't guard LeBron or Luka.

2 is better than 1.


I think Jokic goes nuclear now on the Lakers with no AD. It could be really really ugly. Ironically Dallas now has the bigs ala Minnesota to throw the bodies at him.

The crazy part is people acting like this isn't the best duo in the NBA.

LeBron still that dude when he wants to be.

Good luck beating this team in the playoffs. Also as someone who watches Mark Williams every night the Lakers got a steal he's going to feast in that lob threat role. Literally the perfect center for both Luka and LeBron.

Jokic just drove right down the lane, faked a pass left and then did a two handed dunk.

:o
Jokic 31/21/22
Luka & Oscar = 5 x 27/8/8
The Brodie = All-out energy

This is why Bob Myers retired. Writing was on the wall that the window was closed and all that was left was desperation moves.

Jokic gets another triple double before the 4th quarter, this time with 0.5 seconds left. And as long as the bench doesn't **** the bed, he's probably done for the night with the Nuggets up 25.
