    On top of this, my bet is she makes up a bunch of charges to accuse him of some BS. Roast her.

    Yes they did and that makes it worse in my opinion. She knows Luka as well as anyone and should feel (from all accounts looking in from the outside) confident that they could work something out that is fair for both sides. Being vindictive never turns out well for families. She will be set for life regardless. Children need a relationship with both parents and using them as pawns is disgusting to me. Lawyers should give you guidance but the individual is should have the final say and she could always say no.

    I agree, leave the kids out of financial/legal negotiations. He needs to stay firm on 50/50 equal custody.

    Luka with the Kobe/Gigi pic in his Twitter profile photo. I'm a rational guy but these things get me

    Teague is an idiot. He's following Arenas and Perkins approach of saying wild stuff to keep making the news. It's sad social media was built to give a platform for this type of approach

    It's not that wild, Harden doesn't have the post season results that he should, but outside of that, his regular season is S tier. He was the MVP of the league, finished top 3 five times out of a 6 year stretch and was top 10 - 10 times. His 8 year peak of scoring and assisting was one of the highest offensive contributions the league has ever seen. It's kind of wild to see:

    Year 1 Rockets: 26/6
    Year 2: 25/6
    Year 3: 27/7
    Year 4: 29/8
    Year 5: 29/11
    Year 6: 30/9
    Year 7: 36/8
    Year 8: 34/8

    Since then he has been a low 20's scorer with about 8 assists as the 2nd or 3rd option on his teams. He's a bit unfortunate CP's hamstring failed him against the Warriors and James' hamstring failed him in Brooklyn, otherwise he probably has a ring.

    Luka is a phenomenal player in his own right, but lets not say being compared to peak James Harden is wild.

    Harden had 2 moves. The travelling step back and foul baiting. He was absolutely elite on those and nobody figured how to defend it for a couple years. The image of a defender guarding from HIS BACK never left me and is one of the wildest NBA moments I've witnessed. Kudos to Harden for exploiting it to his own benefit.

    That said, the arsenal of Luka as a SCORER, which is the point Teague was making, is night and day vs Harden, imo. Their complete opposite numbers in the playoffs and clutch time, where defenses get the toughest, is a great hard fact that sustains my view.

    Ok .In California case is closed
    Anamaria Goltes’ petition for child support from Luka Doncic was formally dismissed on Friday, but the disposition didn’t come without a little spice.

    Attorneys for the Lakers superstar and his ex-fiancée appeared remotely in a Los Angeles County courtroom, and Doncic’s lawyer, Laura Wasser, jabbed at Goltes’ rep, Evan C. Itzkowitz, right away.

    Judge Melissa C. Lyons asked Wasser about her desire to quash and/or dismiss Goltes’ case, and quickly, Wasser used the opportunity to say Goltes and Itzkowitz had wasted her and her client’s time by initiating the matter.

    Let's see how it's going in Slovenia,but I think it's more money for Luka then if this lawsuit were in LA
