    Well he can certainly take it. Not sure he can dish it out. lol. Maybe Nico will make another "amazing" trade and send Gafford over to LA. The Landlord don't play.

    Two refs see it


    They didn't even consider a whistle. They look like NPCs in a video game

    yeah, i've watched luka probably more than anyone other than audiosway, and his complaints are generally quite legitimate.

    the reason SGA never complains is that he's rarely fouled without a whistle. same with his forefathers wade and harden. "see, they don't whine!". easy not to whine when you're not wronged.

    IF (big if) Luka went to the FT line every time he was actually fouled in games he would be averaging about 20-25 FTs a game. The refs can't be that corrupt (I hope) to be ignoring him this consistently, so I have concluded they all got together and decided to teach him a lesson about his over the top complaining showing them up. I can't think of any other reasonable explanation.

    Think his strength just makes him hard to officiate, like LeBron, shaq, Zion, jokic, etc.

    I think that too. Although, some are seriously obvious and should be called. I really hope it starts to change with him in LA.

    Luka gets mugged pretty regularly. Against OKC last year in the playoffs they were letting Dort get away with whatever he wanted.
