Luca seems like a great role model. Let's hope he keeps it up. 60 point game puts him with the greats.

That Kobe and Gianna helicopter crash incident still hurts to this day, and will hurt all the basketball fans throughout their lives, still feels unreal :'(

So inspiring that they reached out to their idol

Kobe didn’t learn Slovenian to trash talk Luka. He learned Slovenian because one of his teammates (Vujacic) was Slovenian and they would use it during games so that the other team couldn’t understand what they were saying.

Couldn’t agree more … I’ve been addicted to this channel .. would love to see a video of Shawn Kemp , Gary Payton , Detlef … something cool about Seattle Sonics rather than losing them to OKC..

Luka also met Kobe in public in Madrid at the Real Madrid training hall. There were several statements that they had a joint workout, or some kind of training exhibition. There are photos of this encounter online and there is a little records of it.

Even Jordan would draft Dončić, so we can't talk he is that bad at the draft picks. We should talk about Sacramento who sucks for a very long time. Halibourton is more lucky pick for them

NGL Luka would've been able to benefit from a Kobe training camp much more than Tatum. Tatum doesn't have the shotmaking ability of Kobe, Luka. Rip kobr

I seen him on tv in 2017 Real Madrid playoffs and I instantly knew he was gonna be a hall of famer if not a goat. I have 10 witnesses to this. Luka is always fun to watch because he has a such complete game since mj. I couldn’t pick anything negative besides being slow but he more than well makes up for it!! Keep up the great work LUKA!!

Luka's way of dictating the pace of the game is phemonal and that smooth-ass shot of his is something else. He and Curry, would be interesting to see on a team together the amount of handles and shot combinations resulting from coordinated efforts, between those two high-IQ-having monsters, would be insane. F**k it, make Bird their coach, with that much brains in the game they would inadvertantly cure cancer by the half while they were cooking the oppposition.
