Iztok Franko Lakers need athletes amp speed badly and Adou Thiero brings that And as much as we talk about rim running lob threat bigone season of Derrick Jones Jr next to Luka Doncic showed that athletic wing as a secondary pick partner or catching lob in transitions works great as well

JJ Redick on Luka Doncic He's playing as well as anyone in the NBA right now and that's not being talked about enough but I'm going to talk about it

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

Dirk on Luka amp the Lakers Luka has been playing incredible basketball averaging almost 40 He has his step back working and when the step back works he's basically unarguable Is that a team you really want to see in the playoffs with 3 guys that can take over down the stretch I've been impressed

JJ Redick on Bronny Were gonna have all hands on deck He's improved a lot we trust him The shooting I believe in because of how well he shot it in the G league There was a stretch where he didnt shoot it well Hes improved defensively in terms of his body positioning both on and off ball

James Worthy is fired up postgame Historically The Lakers have had clutch players Kareem with the sky hook Magic with his play Kobe Shaq But I don't think we've ever had one as consistent and dominant as Luka Doncic

Bam Adebayo on Luka Doncics 60-point nightI know what its like to be in that mode As people can see its not easy to get to 80
