    Agree with everything being said about Luka as it relates to ing and moaning about officiating.

    But I wonder if Windhorst ever reported his King Bron Bron with such scathing criticisms. I don’t know if he has. Has he?
    Nope he has not.

    and when re s like Doris Burke want to call out every single time Luka makes a mistake or complains while completely ignoring that A) he legitimately was fouled on many of those plays and B) Tatum was complaining a lot while not getting back on defense, and had several defensive lapses himself along with stupid turnovers, it just churns that narrative further.

    LeBron and others been doing the exact same stuff for over a decade and the commentators are generally silent, but when Luka does it, suddenly it's the second coming of Hitler. but anyone with a brain knows why.

    Luke directly implied the refs were on the take a few years back when he made the money rub sign after he didn’t get a call. At some point that was going to come back on him.

    Every player whines, but not even close to the extent Luka does. He literally has something to about on every single play. Win or lose these finals, Luka's image took a hit with impartial fans. Just look at our good old friend Thread over here, rooting for the Mavs but still can't stomach Doncic's act.

    I watch a lot of regular season ball, but I never realized Luka was this much of a cry baby. He needs to tone it down a level or two, tbh.
    Yeah claiming Luka's complaining is in line with Tatum and LeBron is just ridiculous

    I have never seen a superstar literally stop playing to complain like Luka does. You're a blind homer if you think otherwise.

    Of course not. Nobody is gonna challenge LeBron. There is no upside to it now. He's been canonized. He got that by simultaneously Minnesota Floyd being taken out of circulation and LeBron deciding after much consternation to take that last Laker's ring down from the shelf where it was right there for the taking. He debated long and hard about granting on White Laker fans, but finally took 'er down so we could tote it up and he could then send the Black es out to the talk shows sun up next day.

    In shambles because your great white hope has embarrassed himself on the biggest stage in the sport and the media, who incessantly slobbers over him, is forced to ridicule him.

    If only white people could catch a break.

    ...gd rights, TD. We used to get the breaks, now you Blacks, you hog all of 'em. Every iin' break. I go to the Wal-Mart, return desk. I'm late by a day..."Can you give me a br..."

    "A break? No. The Blacks get those, you sir, get these crotch less panties back. Have fun. Next in line."

    he definitely needs to tone it down no question. but he's also often got legit gripes. hes in a class with LeBron and Shaq in terms of frequently getting blatantly fouled with no call.

    what he does is pretty much on the same scale as LeBron though. but gets way more hate in the media for it. as I said, it's obvious why.

    didn't say it was on scale as Tatum. just that they never bothered to say anything about Tatum whining and not getting back which happened multiple times, but would complain about it every time Luka even LOOKED at a ref.

    bron is maybe my favorite player of all time. but he and Luka are absolutely comparable when it comes to how much they complain and how often they leave their defense hanging bc they are complaining and lazy to get back.

    At the ass backwards thinking.

    Not even close. I've never seen anyone as petulant and whiny as Doncic on the floor. It's so overt, that much the media, who desperately wants to anoint him (it's obvious why), is forced to discuss it at times.

    Sports are funny. A 5th seed led by a 25 year old unexpectedly makes the NBA Finals, loses to the team that's had the best record in the NBA for the entire season, and the narrative is the Mavs suck and Luka will never win anything.

    I love sports but fans are re ed, and ESPN is just Fox News for sports idiots.
    Narratives by fans are funny.

    Mavs when they make it to the Finals. "Remember this is no ordinary 5th Seed. Their mid-season trades transformed them and they had 21-9 record. Good for 3rd best in the league in that span."

    Proceed to get ed by Boston. " 5th seed led by a 25 yr old unexpectedly made the Finals... lol re ed fans"

    Mavs win game 3 by 30+ imo. Winner of game 4 takes the series.

    Still a 5th seed. Yes their trade transformed them but it didn't make them a championship team.

    But they should be embarrassed to lose to Boston in this fashion. Pretty sure the Pacers were as compe ive even without Haliburton. Too many talking heads think Luka fouling out was the problem. The problem happened when Luka was in the game, when Boston went up by 21 and Luka was playing hero brick. So many possessions I said "just shoot the ing ball" and they'd turn it over trying to be cute.

    But Euroball is often ugly ref baiting bull like that. Luka was more interested in trying to draw a foul than in actually scoring or playing defense. He missed a couple shots late trying to jump into a defender instead of taking a solid shot. I like to see that James Harden level get ignored, often it doesn't in the RS.

    this is the "narrative" for maybe 1% of sports fans.

    No. There is no comparison to LeBron - Luka literally berates the referees play after play, game after game. He even berates his own bench, wtf? He literally stops playing, leaving his team 5 on 4. Jokic is more in line with Lebron's level of whining. Luka is in his own stratosphere.

    It doesn't matter really, his bigger problem is being a complete turnstile in this series at historical proportions (I have to imagine the injury plays SOME part). And disappearing in the 4th offensively.

    But he'll be back in the Finals again, he's too good not to be...but shut the fück up with the whining, it's a bad look...

    How does Doncic compare to Apemond Green screeching and berating the refs?

    Granted, Green is a media produced fake star but hey, 4 Finals baby.

    If you're going to bold you should finish more of that sentence. No one would call Draymond Green a superstar, would you?

    funniest thing of all is how trash talking has always been a legendary part of many legacies, such as bird, jordan, Kobe, and many others

    but now when Luka trash talks? it's a problem and a sign of mental weakness and childishness gmab
