I'm not sure Luka even flopped one time in the last game, while the Suns did flop a bunch, but you don't hear about that.

They both flop. Refs should give the flopper a foul for flopping, it’s embarrassing.

If he is winning championships why would he care about LukA?

Because he won't be viewed on Luka's level. That'll undoubtedly eat away at him.

I doubt it. Lol Luka gets special treatment for obvious reasons

I was expecting more based on people's comments.

Jesus, a player is just having fun and that's enough to get panties in a bunch. Lighten up people, it's really not that serious.

Hes making fun of how dramatic Luka complains. Not the flopping

How? He wasn't complaining in this clip, so if that was what he was making fun of, he missed the target completely.

Luka is dramatic, but Booker can be too when you look at the pictures in this thread, even if Luka is indeed more hot headed. At least, you can argue that it's part of Luka's personality and not just a strategy like it is for Booker. Luka is clearly not as cool headed as guys like Booker, CP3 or Harden which is something he needs to learn to control.

Not saying Book doesn't flop, obviously he does, but taking a still shot as some sort of proof is pretty idiotic. I'm sure if you took still shots of any player they'd make all sorts of ridiculous faces

Book and Luka really don't like each other and it's kinda rad.

I dont find it funny because Luka rarely stays on the floor. Would be funny if he did some slapstick-humor flopping, making fun of his flopping.

Booker did this often last postseason too. He should call it the Chris Paul special, because that's where he learned it from.

Haha, what a joke. He gets the bad treatment for those obvious reasons. In the NBA's microcosm, white is black, and if you are European on top of that, you are pretty much have to be a top 20 all-time player to get the respect you deserve. Your opinion of him reflects the NBA standard too, and it shows also when literally NO ONE from the NBA stars congratulate Jokic for the 2nd year in the row for his all-time dominant season and MVP award. Because the game is not for the Lukas and the Jokers. Their very status is cultural appropriation in the eyes of those NBA stars.

Lukas so fun to watch but jts ruined by his constant whining.

Everybody flops, it's terrible, but it's part of the game.

The whining is out of control though. He talks to the refs more than his own teammates.

I was saying because hes a Europeon player. Hes highly marketable for that alone. How does he get bad treatment? I think Luka gets plenty of respect from nba stars. Luka actually puts effort in to bond with other Americans. Jokic on the other hand, kind of has a unique personality and is very low key. I dont think it has to do with race. He just doens't have alot of American friends in the league. Its also has to do with that nobody (Americans) know nothing about Serbia. Luka has a much more likable personality and playstyle to casual fans. Die hard basketball fans appriciate Jokic style the most.

Trash talk is part of the game. Just the other game Luka was mocking CP3s flopping.

Luka had more than 4 made shots over Booker in game 3 and 4 and this tweet says "SERIES". :lol:

The Mavericks were relentless attacking the basket though and that is where they hurt Booker. The Mavericks were 9-of-11 on twos defended by Booker. It would be difficult to shoot that well in an empty gym. In at least one case, after Jalen Brunson bodied Booker into the stanchion, Brunson was essentially in an empty gym despite a mild contest from Deandre Ayton.

The only one jelly if this happens would be Luka. Careers and greatness are defined by titles and finals MVPs/league MVPs.
