Wojnarowski So for the Lakers I think ultimately LeBron James probably takes the four max because of the kind of the impact player is not available to them

Brian Windhorst When LeBron doesnt play and Austin Reaves and Luka do the Lakers are a better team

Chipalu Minnesota Timberwolves Head Coach Chris Finch on facing the Lakers without LeBron James in the lineup Seems to activate Luka amp Reavesseem to share the shots They become exponentially more dangerousbeen pretty good when 2 of those 3 been out because of just a usage puzzle

Orlando head coach Jamahl Mosley Luka is having an MVP type year I think he's to me the front runner in that regard You're not gonna stop him with just one or two guys it's gotta be a 5-man job every time he's on the floor He understands the game gets his teammates involved the right way

LeBron James on the Lakers final inbounds play to Luka Doncic Im not sure Obviously youll have to ask Luka what he saw on that I thought he had a good look I was kinda off balance when he gave it to me I thought he had a great look

SVG LeBron really was carrying that team in Cleveland In fact the guy we had the most trouble with other than LeBron was Wally Szczerbiak No knock on Wally Szczerbiak but he is not Pau Gasol It wasn't because Kobe was necessarily better than LeBron he just had more around him

Windhorst When Luka LeBron and Reaves play together they're just not a good team when it's just Reaves and Luka out there the Lakers are an excellent team When all 3 of them play out there they're not It's actually a 20 point difference
