How can you not be a doomer when you're a Luka fan? Waited years for a perfect roster and got fcked up by demons.
We in our prime playing with scrubs and peers playing with multiple wings, allstar centers, shooters. Luka overachieving with powers of friendship 😩 get us out
Wolves made a conference finals with Randle and still didn’t run it back another year because the fit wasn’t good. That’s just smart front office work to prioritize the needs of your franchise cornerstone
The Lakers are “on the clock” with Luka Doncic, per @DanWoikeSports
“I think there’s an actual threat that he could have a wandering eye if the Lakers can’t deliver on the plans they presented last summer.”

I respect Messi’s greatness, but I’m fully convinced he’s going goal‑less this World Cup and Argentina are getting grouped. He holds them back.

Draymond Green reflects on punching Jordan Poole: "For five seconds, I forgot where I was"
“I've had a bunch of situations like that growing up. Sometimes I was the guy who get hit, sometimes I wasn't. Regardless, we move on. That's how I've always approached it”
“So when that situation happened, I'm like, all right, cool. We move on. And then when we couldn't, I was like, huh?”
“For a while, it made me think, man, this dude nothing like me. Because when those things happen, you just move on”
“But it taught me so much. It taught me, you're right, he may not be like you. He ain't from where you from. The things you went through, the way you had to come up, he may not have came up like that”
“For that five seconds, I forgot where I was at because I immediately went to what I know. But what you know don't really work here”
“Everybody says, ‘Oh man, but you was 10 years in. You should know better.’ Still learning nine years in”
“It's lessons like that that ultimately make me who I am to this day because, man, I fucked that up”

Luka talking about Brunson: "First of all he's a great guy. He has a winner mentality that makes him different from other players... We talk all the time. We talked before the last game. I said you've got 1 more and of course after he won I congratulated him on the title."
Jalen and Luka won the 1st playoff series the Mavs won in over decade while on their rookie contracts,
They are both 1st ballot hall of famers at this point and there’s a trauma now because now matter how good Mavs player is they can be gone for no good reason.
Even If it’s not logical to still feel this way it’s there
Luka says Jalen Brunson is a winner on the court and great guy.
- Did you congratulate JB on his win?
“Of course. Before the last game I said to him “One more” and then when he won I congratulated him and he texted me back, I thought he had a lot of messages”

Shout out to my real ones. @jalenbrunson1@PJPatton52@heathaaamau They said we weren’t a good fit for their culture. Said we weren’t good enough in our roles. Peter Patton, Heather Mau, Jalen. We did and will continue to do the work.
