Luka is doing a bad job of handling the Wolves blitzing him. They've caught him or almost caught him a few times.

That wasn’t dirty. He dived after a loose ball and actually tipped the ball away. It was the momentum after that carried through Edwards.

Absolutely heartbreaking man.
Heart breaking LOL. At least give it 20 seconds to see if it’s bad or not lol
I have this weird thing where I don't like to see people in excruciating pain. My bad.

I've been watching Lebron play for over 2 decades. He's not a dirty player and everyone whose not a hater knows it. He's physical but he's never played dirty or reckless.
It's cognitive dissonance. They don't look at what happened, they look at who was involved. Just sad, really.

Lol like RJ said, at 23 you can see your wounds heal like Wolverine. Rub some Gatorade on it, he'll be alright

Absolutely. If Lebron doesn't try to get the ball back, people would bash him for lack of effort, then when he makes a clear effort to get the ball back, "it's a dirty play".

Roleplayers cant even help Luka and Lebron for one possession.
Raul
“The other day I saw one of his games. He was running with the ball at a hundred per cent full speed, I don’t know how many touches he took, maybe five or six, but the ball was glued to his foot. It’s practically impossible.”

Haven’t seen LeBron dive that hard for a ball since he went at Curry’s ankles. That extra energy only comes up around star players.

That sequence reminded me of why Randle drove me nuts.

he dove right into his legs. It doesnt get much dirtier. This causes potentially career ending injuries.

If any role player on the Lakers showed up, Lakers would be up comfortably

Just can't be letting a guy like Julius Randle go off like this. Inexcusable.
