    No surprise that Lakers are playing better and winning as soon as Luka picked up his game and started playing more like LUKA

    Unreal game winner wish it was buzzer beater!!

    Yes, both Luka and AR are killers and reminiscent of Kobe. There will be times where they're both clutch in the same game. They are already the best backcourt in the league, imo, and they'll eventually become the most feared too.

    Those are crazy numbers, especially the rebounds, he’s been going after them. Hell he’s barely behind Ayton for the highest boards per game on the team at 8 to Ayton’s 8.3, that’s pretty great.

    Please stop passing the ball out of the post to Rui or Smart when you got the turnaround. Shoot the ball Luka when you get inside

    He is a complete player, the passing instincts of Magic, Deadeye shooting of Bird, and the rebounding weight of Barkley…

    Now these guys are all playing their roles and there is no more confusion on the court.They have figured it out just in time for the playoffs. When I've mentioned that LeBron still wanted to be the man it was because he wasn't playing like this. He is deferring now and not getting in the way of Luka running the team. They are smart players so as long as the attitudes were right it was only a matter of time for them to figure it out. I don't know what happened to get them all on the same page but I'm digging it!

    Amazing how he still manages to score 36 in a slugfest like this game.

    He’s been so good. Yeah he takes some bad shots, but it’s like Kobe, you live with it

    Luka's defense is real and is taking us to the next level.
