    I was thinking GS losing is bad karma for Luke's transition, but hopefully it lights a fire under Luke's butt to get back to winning ways.

    The Luke era is under way. But be sure to leave Barnes and Ezeli in The bay.

    At least it shows GS can be beaten.

    Hopefully we have a contender in a few years since GS isn't a juglernot

    Hey, at least Luke doesn't have to stick around for a parade.

    He'll be in LA tomorrow :rock:

    Still would rather have GSW win.

    Luke had GS rolling before Kerr came back. I can not wait to see what he does with our team. I'm so excited. Now he can get to work.

    We can finally welcome Luke officially as the coach. And as some has said. Please keep barnes and ezeli behind. My goodness if they both actually played like if they had a damn. They would be celebrating

    As much as I'm unhappy with the outcome of these Finals, every minute that goes by I feel more and more elated.

    We're finally moving forward. To hell with everyone else's teams. The Lakers are finally on their way back. Damn it feels good.

    What are the chances we get an introductory Luke press conference before the draft?

    GSW is not our team, who cares! TRD speaks the truth as always 'cept when he's talking about small forwards, then you know, grain of salt time:Kobe Snickering:

    I'd guess they'd do it on Wednesday. Give him a couple days to get settled then they go straight back to prepping for the draft. Or they could just have a joint press conference for Luke and Ingram on Friday.

    I'm excited for Luke. He better bring some discipline with this GSW offense. I don't want us shooting 41 3's in a game 7. We've got to be versatile and not rely on the 3-ball.

    Book it. We will be equally talented, bigger, stronger, more athletic and deeper than them in a couple of years. I doubt they win it again.

    I was just struck by how, when pressured by the really good defense Cavs threw at them out by the 3 point line how many quick .... maybe just too quick for playoffs to sustain for multiple years ..... jack and fire long bombs had to be launched. The old live by them, die by them. Plus Luke is going to be better than Kerr.

    Or opposed either. Smart player who literally just won a ring. He'll have a lot of pull and influence with the players.
