Good thing he got youtube highlights against Portland before getting injured. See you in a month, Luka.


I hope Mavs trade him as soon as possible. It will be enormous relaxation for many Dallas fans. Not even mention how Kyrie and Co. would play a lot better without Luka.

They sincerely doubt that real fans hate the best player of the team, but it looks we are there.

Russell Westbrook averaged a triple double for a couple of seasons. Put some respect on his name.

How many times was Russell in Finals? I believe he might be a lot older than Luka.

Doesnt matter if you don't win. Luka is Russell Westbrook at this point. Same amount of Youtube highlights too. Like I said, see you in a month, Luka. :lol:

The only thing that doesn't matter is fan being glad about team's best player injury. It's just not understandable. I guess, good times for you. KP is still your man?

I really hope Exum comes back, Dinwiddie has been great compared to expectation but bad Dinwiddie game and the team is stuck...
Defense wins draft lotteries!

They should hire you, if not for anything else, great vibes are enough.

Exum won't be back soon and even when he comes back, he's basically didn't play for half a year, he will need extended time to come in form.

At least they fought until the end, Minnesota shot 70% from the arc for most of the game... But i didn't like the attitude and effort of our guys.

Kidd didn't understand nothing about the game, like always, for 3 quarters.

Irving is the leader of this team.

Luka can't play 5 games in a row. It's impossible try to win something in this situation.
I don't even know if we will have the HC in first round of PO honestly.

This injury is for sure correlated with his heel injury. He shouldn't be playing.

However Klay defense was out standing again.

He just has to limit TO (don't create too much Klay, it's not your job) and makes shoots. Nothing more.

He is perfect with Luka and Ky.

Really frustrated by this. Luka finally had a summer off to rest and get himself ready, and he keeps getting hurt, not to mention whine at the refs and talk trash instead of getting back on D.

Why Klay plays so little time even when Luka is out and our other key players are not playing very well?

Kidd rotations are a mistery like the Bermuda triangle... Mostly of the time it's hard to understand what he is doing.

Klay is often the first/second best defender on the court.
