Luka is the chosen one.

What a perfectly poised OT 3P buzzer beater. And he HAS been playing a on a bum ankle. 43/17/13 and a win against the best team in the league, with his no 2 missing? Wtf?

Man Luka is too good. I've missed winning basketball so much. Can't believe bulls almost had a shot at him

Mavs may be celebrating now, but, who'll ever forget those great wins against the Bucks, 76ers, Magic, and Knicks that Niko led the Bulls to.

Can you guys imagine that shot in front of 15,000 shrieking Mavericks fans? Holy **** it would have been amazing. I have been thrilled by the high level of basketball this Bubble, but man that made me miss a home court seeing the shot of their lives.

Luka magic with another epic game. This is reminding of Derricks series against the Celtics.

I dont care who wins this series, I just hope it goes 7 games to watch Luka light it up.

p.s. it is to bad its not in front of Mavericks fans.

Wow...Luka is just in his 2nd year and Clippers have a great defensive team....Kawhi/George who are two long armed defenders.

It sucks the Bulls ended up with multiple average players when there were superstars to be had in all the drafts they attempted poorly to tank for.

Luka is doing way better than Rose did.

Rose had an exceptional game 1, but cooled off afterwards.

The Bulls will always be my #1 but it is easy to root for these Mavs, especially given my location.

Can never forget how GarPax ruined Bulls basketball for a decade and probably another 5 or 6 years with their atrocious GMing.... :banghead:

Kid is so amazing. He instantly gives those Magic Johnson vibes with how he just came in and pounced.

Yes without question. Thats not what I meant though. Derrick was a rookie when he did that game. But what I mean was it was the kind of performance that made you think this guy is going to own the league.

The thing is, we know Mark Cuban is a great owner, he has a great coach, and we know the current guys the Mavs have, arent going to be the guys Luka eventually ends up with.

Mavs are going to be super scary in a season or 2.

Rose neved had Luka's vision and playmaking ability. It's always the height advantage which Luka has. You cannot be an exceptional playmaker when you can't see over your defenders.

But, Luka has to stay healthy and that's always the most important thing with super talents.

Yep, remember everyone celebrating that and I knew it would come back to haunt them. The good news is, if they draft a star in one of those drafts, GarPax are still here and they wouldn't know what to do with that star. So in the end, it's all for the best. But damn would I love Luka in a Bulls uniform.

We were one committed tank away from like a 65% chance at Doncic.

But but but winning culture!

Luka Legend.

Why was Kawhi not defending him???

I feel like pulling up the 2018 draft thread to slap all the fools that ranked Ayton ahead of him. I fought for Luka for months in those threads.

But I’m too lazy.
