Mr. 11:30 FTW






Like I said, Luke is not a guy we need to score double digits every game, he's a role player

Calm down, seriously.
If any of you guys had been the GM instead of Mitch, Bynum would be gone, The Machine would be gone, LO would be gone, etc.
The Lakers know what they have with Luke.
He is a good bench player that can provide 20 minutes of solid defense and great passing.
He played [Jim Rome/Phe-No-Menaly/Jim Rome] last year.
He is in the midst of a shooting slump.
Ya'll act like he's the worst player on the team.
If he needs to be traded, the Lakers will do it during the off-season.

Have some faith

a season long shooting slump means you are garbage

You drunk? He's one of, if not the, best passers on the team. I know it's the cool thing to hate on him...but he's in a shooting slump.Don't get it twisted with passing. You might need to watch him play or something.

yeah but nobody overrated him

luke is supposed to be this god at passing and supposedly has eisntein level IQ that makes up for his lack of fitness

I watch every laker game and he was good last year but never had "great" passing ability

and this year he has been horrible

He tries to make risky passes most of the time and they result in turnovers. He may be a good passer but not a great passer and his horrible decisionsnegate his good passing most of the time. Also, 3 good passes a game does not make up for his garbage defense and his missed shot. Every time he shoots it isbasically a turnover for the team.

Who on God's green earth overrated Luke?

Unfortunately, this is just not his season. Possibly because of the injuries earl;y in the season.

Luke is nothing but just solid. That's it. Nothing more, nothing less. He does his part and plays his small role. I have to agree, he does have betterbasketball IQ than some people on the squad. *cough* Sasha *cough*

Just because Sasha is having a better shooting season than Luke does that make him better than Luke? No. You damn well know when Sasha tries to control therock, dude is OC. Word to Stu.
 
LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKERS BABY!!!

Had me worried for a minute; but hey, there are 60 minutes in an hour... ... ... 60 > 1 ... LAKERS BABY!

I cringe whenever sasha has the ball other than shooting

overrated? just look at Luke's contract

he was solid last year, this year he is a liability

what injury does he have anyways? does his injury affect those wide open jumpers he takes? Teams give him all the time in the world and he still missesthem. He should at least get in better shape

I have a new one- 50 before 20!!!!!!!!!!


LAKERS BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
I just think peeps are coming down on Luke way too hard.

Dude was in a groove as a starter earlier in the season. Got moved back to the bench and his production declined.

Yeah, he's got a ridiculous contract, but oh well. Blame that on Kupchak and Buss. They think he's worth getting paid that amount to do whatever it ishe's doing.

I swear before Pau, Laker fans were laying it in on Lamar. I ain't going to lie, I was one of them too. But this hate for Luke is ridiculous.

KB8SD .. ahah at the OC Stu reference

Yeah, exactly. He's shooting lights out. I'm not going to take that away from him. He's knocking them down. But other than that, and his peskydefense, what are his other skills?

But I'm talking about IQ wise, dude cannot control the ball and does not know what to do with it except to shoot.

Yeah, point wise, scoring wise, Sasha has contributed more to this team this season. Yes, this season. More than Luke. But where was your dude 3 seasonsbefore?

I mean, it's only a contract year for Sasha isn't it?

Luke is a solid role player at the beginning of pre-season and frst 20 games of the season. As the seasons wears on his physical and mental game goes down thedrain.

Damn slow, poor rebounder, poor dribbler, really below average jumpshot and most importantly he's nailed to the floor. Only thing hes good for is that hesa vet, but can you trust in him in clutch situations to space the floor or a hit a shot? No. Phil has more faith in sasha right now and it shows in luke'sgame. Either he picks up his game or its goodbye in the off-season.

Were we wrong aboutCookie, Kwa- may Brown, and Smush?....definitely not, and its time for Luke. Hes been in the league long enough, and with this team longenough to show any improvements or refinements in his game. Mihm and Luke most be parted or packaged for picks.
 
if suns can pick up Brent Barry, it is a wrap for your team. roy back in the lineup=loss for you. once again not being a troll.
 
i didnt watch the game, but for all the people that say luke bring excellent defense, who was he guarding tonight?

and i agree with almost everything this guy has said
