Also before anyone brings up the 2025 series VS the Wolves that’s completely irrelevant
His POA was Reaves and his frontcourt was 40 year old LeBron, Rui and Jaxon Hayes
He was playing with a bunch of defensive liabilities, give him this OKC roster and this series is done in 4
People will say “if man” but this has already been proven
The overwhelming majority expected the Wolves to destroy the Mavs, they were already putting the Wolves in All time defense talks
Luka then handled them in 5 games
REPORT: Jarrett Allen might be sent to the Lakers if LeBron joins the Cavaliers:
“A sign-and-trade for LeBron would undoubtedly involve Jarrett Allen ($28 million), whom the Lakers have targeted previously in trade rumors.”

LeBron James says that his DECISION in free agency will take place between late June and into August
He added reason 1A will be where he feels comfortable, and reason 1B is where his family feels comfortable 👀

The Lakers are reportedly NOT planning on making massive roster changes this offseason:
“Increasingly, it looks like the massive changes fans want for the Lakers aren’t quite what the team has in mind. The plan appears to be to keep Austin Reaves, at something less than the maximum $240 million-plus, and to seek solutions at the center spot, an annual tradition in LA. Beyond that, dreams of adding restricted free agents Walker Kessler or Peyton Watson or Jalen Duren are almost certainly not happening.”

Per Dan Woike of The Athletic:
"Doncic has had regular contact with new Lakers owner Mark Walter and has been impressed with the level of communication, league sources said."
Pelinka also confirmed during exit interviews he's been in CONSTANT communication with Luka about roster building.

LUKA IS HERE TO STAY. PERIOD. 🤝
