    And who exactly challenged him for the title of the halfcourt shot champion? I mean, he actually can hit them with some regularity; maybe Bron could try, but I don't think anyone on this team can beat Luka at that particular shot.

    Just do keto ffs (or carnivore if you can handle it). Rice and veggies are overrated :p
    I lost 55lbs. in 90 days on 95% carnivore diet, i know what im talking about :D

    I did a keto diet for a few months and lost over 35 pounds but it led to kidney stones, so perhaps if I tried it again, I would drink a ton more water and see if that helps. I saw a dietician through my doctor and they told me to be very careful doing another keto diet because they suspect I would get more stones. ??????

    I think keto is the most studied diet ever. I felt great, i feel even better eating almost only meat. I like Dr. Berg for my "diet news". He makes a s*** tone of sense. Besides, i guess anything would be better than a standard american diet. A cube of butter and a pound of bacon beats most of the junk people put in their mouths anyways :D
    Many dieteticians are hacks btw. How can i take advise from some overweight, thin haired, bad skin lady or a guy, that has trouble walking up 5 flights of stairs. They will tell you stuff, they teach them... from years ago.
    I also like this Sten Ekberg guy.

    At this rate Luka won’t loss any weight from push ups with everybody losing these half court shot battles.

    oh that nickname? The geniuses in Game Time came up with that. I know @Weezy was one of them, but I forget who did the other part.

    :Laugh:

    I'm not above fat shaming professional athletes on my team. I used to call Shaq, Snaq.

    Berg and Ekberg sound like cousins feeding us the same crap. Grow a garden, go shoot a moose, kayak out and catch some salmon or use a net, pick some berries. Time you process all your food you will be slim and in shape. Problem solved. Make sure you play some basketball in there somewhere...lol.

    i wonder if the mavs knew his leg is cooked and the lakers figured they'd take the risk knowing they weren't winning another title with lebron/AD, hence why they were able to get him for so little

    being out of shape and adjusting to a new team is one thing. but he does not look right out there

    Tough watching him right now. You can see the Magic at times: the manipulation of defenses, the size mismatches he creates

    But right now he's way out of shape so the things that stick out are
    So many shots rimming out
    Hornets hunting him down relentlessly

    Lakers going to have to figure out how to deal with that
    Luka needs to get into some fitness so he can be Luka
    His teammates need to play off him and be willing to make use of the looks created. Overpassing and giving up easy jumpers for tougher drives were a real issue

    Third game for a new team after an injury. His conditioning is not where it needs to be but I mainly see a guy who isn’t familiar with our plays or his new teammates. The shock of all of this hasn’t worn off for him either.

    Team has to weather the storm while he gets up to speed. We shot ourselves in the foot repeatedly tonight.

    Led our team in rebounding

    :ADGlance:

    On one hand, it’s a positive, but it’s also embarrassing
