People debating Wemby over Luka put too much emphasis on the gap between his elite defense versus Luka’s now improved defense. But they won’t acknowledge the HUGE gap between Luka’s otherworldly offense versus Wemby’s good offense.
Bro, a 7’6 alien scoring 12pts is embarrassing!

In his last 4 gms Luka was Lakers wing defender matched up most against top wing options Jalen Johnson, Deni, Scottie Barnes, Yaxel and did a good job at staying in front with help of backline def playmaking forcing mistakes.
Turnovers: Johnson 4, Deni 8, Barnes 5, Yaxel 5

I just watched a 7-foot-8 dude get spoon-fed baskets at the rim, and I'm supposed to be more impressed by that than watching one of the greatest shot-makers basketball has ever seen create something out of absolutely nothing every single night? If watching someone capitalize on being a foot taller than everybody else is your definition of basketball excellence, then by all means.

“It’s early, yet the positioning has begun for the league’s most desired individual award. Stats matter, obviously — being among the leaders in scoring or rebounds or assists or blocks will get you considered. And those who rank in multiple categories will get heavy consideration."

Not only has Luka dispelled the narratives that he doesn’t play defense… if the season ended today he would be on an ALL-DEFENSIVE team 👀

WILD BUT TRUE 🤯
Luka Dončić is the FIRST player in NBA history to average all five milestones over a week with at least THREE games played and NOT win Player of the Week:
40+ points
5+ rebounds
5+ assists
2+ steals
50/40/90 shooting splits
Literal 🤡 🤡 🤡 🤡
Kendrick Perkins doesn't view Luka Doncic as a real MVP contender
“In order to win the MVP, you got to have the numbers. But you got to be one of these top teams. I just think that the Lakers, they are going to be in the middle of the pack. Luka is going to have the numbers, but they’re not going to be a top three seed in the Western Conference.”

The script has been leaked — Tony Brothers will referee tonight’s Lakers game.
Given their history, Luka Doncic is in a lose-lose situation. He’s going to get hacked by Yaxel Lendeborg all game & if he says anything they’ll give him a tech.
The media has been promoting this guy all week.

I hat this in my early data signals column earlier today… Lakers have been a top 5 transition team so far on both sides of the ball, but I guess this doesn’t make good podcast content.
Max Kellerman rips Luka Doncic:
“Do you know why Luka Doncic complains to the refs on every offensive possession? It’s very obvious. Because if you’re complaining to the refs, you don’t have to run back down the floor on defense. Beyond not moving his feet, it’s 5-on-4 on the other end of the floor! You’re just being lazy!”
