Any qualified applicants here on IHS, ready to hold players like Luka Doncic accountable next year?

200k is not enough to make fatass Luka lose weight.

Yeah and I reject the idea Luka can't do it on his own. It's his responsibility.

[Xiao Yao You]

Luka has a team of people that cant keep him in shape already. Might need a new beer wrangler with finley in dallas though?

[Wardell Curry]

Luka is like Shaq in that what you see on the court is mainly driven by pure talent. Luka is better at the mental aspect and Shaq was better at the physical aspect.

Both are not as good as they could have been. For Luka and Shaq at 25 years old it doesn't really matter. At 30 and 35 years old it matters a lot.

[Full Court]

I have a feeling that in hindsight this Luka thing is going to seem like a big debacle for the Lakers.

Unless the league bails them out with another superstar this offseason.

[Meticode]

I can't believe this is real, but it is. And it's embarrassing. If you have to search for someone to motivate your players to stay in shape when they make tens of millions of dollars every year then they don't deserve to be on the team. The job posting might as well required the person to speak Slovenian.

I liken Luka more to Allen Iverson. He'll put his body on the line, give it his all and push through anything when in the game. But once that buzzer sounds he's no longer a professional baller.

I mean fair but AI never had conditioning issues. So maybe an AI/Shaq hybrid.
