    Default Luka went further with Kyrie than Lebron

    And by a lot.

    Luka also spanked the current team he's getting demolished by... with Kyrie.

    How did this happen?

    At least defensively

    Of course.

    Kyrie and Luka played part of the previous season together before they made it to the Finals. Had a whole year to play together then the Mavs made moves to solidify the Mavs wing and frontcourt. They had over a year to work together and figure out how to do things.

    Luka and LeBron played less than 28 games together in the regular season and the trade the Lakers wanted to make couldn't go through because Mark Williams was too much of a risk with his health.

    Plus, the trade wasn't made to win THIS year. It was made to solidify the Lakers in the future after LeBron leaves.

    Luka and Lebron can't play together on the court at the same time.

    Kyrie is a better fit and a better teammate than Bran. Lakers could really use a leader like him.

    When Kyrie got traded in 2023 to the Mavs, Luka/Kyrie were below .500 together and missed the playoffs/play-in entirely

    A healthy Mavs team would've went further than this Lakers team.

    They're beating the Thunder? I'd be surprised. And when you have AD & Kyrie a "healthy" Mavs team doesn't exist.

    Kyrie is better than LeBron ever was, clearly. No other explanation.

    They would've put up a better fight if they were in the Lakers place.

    also, dont forget. Luka got a year older from 25 to 26.

    when Luka gets a year old, in reality, physically, he ages 4 years every passing year.

    and it is showing. Its a european thing.

    remember. how Kukoc and Longley use to get yelled at by GOAT and Pip on defense.
