Luka is due back Saturday 2/8.
I promise you, Luka gonna do everything he can to be ready for that game. He going for 50 that game...
Yup and I don't gamble alot on NBA, but I am about to bet a significant amount of money on that game with his points....LOL
I can't definitely understand where they're coming from.
Because as a Lakers fan, I'd like to have Jokic, Giannis, Lebron, Steph and Shai as our starting five.
That's not a rough ask is it?
Shit that muthafucka betta be fasting now if he wants to play on the 8th!

‘Crisis communications’: emails show how NFL’s Saints and NBA’s Pelicans helped New Orleans church spin abuse scandal
Unearthed emails detail how the sports franchises’ owner and PR team counseled archdiocese on how to respond to unfolding clergy-abuse case
Here are prominent people named in the Saints clergy-abuse emails
Efforts to shape narrative pulled in or targeted government officials, local media figures
Emails detail Saints' aid to archdiocese in scandal
Emails detail the efforts made by Saints team officials to assist New Orleans church leaders in handling the fallout from a sexual abuse crisis within the archdiocese.
High-level executives with the NFL’s New Orleans Saints football team and the NBA’s Pelicans basketball team had a deeper role than previously known in connection with a list of priests and deacons faced with credible allegations of child molestation while the clergymen worked with their city’s Roman Catholic archdiocese, the Guardian and reporting partner WWL Louisiana can reveal.
According to highly sensitive emails that were obtained by the outlets, one top executive even described a conversation with the New Orleans district attorney at the time that allowed them to remove clergy names from the list – though the clubs deny their official participated in that discussion, and the prosecutor back then vehemently denies he would ever have weighed in on the list’s content.
The emails call into question prior and newly issued statements by New Orleans’ two major professional sports franchises as they denied being overly entwined in the archdiocese’s most damning affairs – while fighting to keep their communications with the church out of public view.

I think he and AD knew, if the agent knew Ana didn’t say anything, how the fuck will our relationship be going forward
Yes, I do.
Just like I think Kyrie Luka and AD and the coach didnt.
Bro... especially as black man whose worked in different fields.
Your STILL a worker.
We have to remember that.
Even Jordan and Magic got "surprised" by team moves during their careers even though they had serious power from day one.
So it's possible. Maybe he did or didn't.
But I have no doubt they would do that.
Especially since klutch relationship is not like it was. And LeBron was called only minuted before. And I heard the league keeps all that under a microscope.
And Dallas ownership is completely new to the point remember
Coach Carylse CHOSE not to re up with Luka. Something was going on.
Again they all still workers at the end of the day
And it seems the league gonna check all this player empowerment stuff
This ain't new
Didn't Gasol go straight to the Lakers?
Chris Paul to Clippers?
KG to Boston?
A bunch of these trades were not about winning primarily. A lot of favor for a favor between executives and agents and old teammates or more often?
petty sh*t
