Luka Doncic drove down a wide street in a Dallas suburb that he had never even heard of, much less visited. On either side of the road were a multitude of restaurant choices representing every cuisine known to man (or at least the ones that were a part of the average American’s culinary lexicon). It…

Luka Doncic All 168 Three-Pointers Full Highlights (2018-19 Season Three-ilation Part II)
For the third time that day, Luka Doncic got up to answer his ringing doorbell. What was waiting for him on the other side of the door wasn’t a GrubHub delivery person bearing a monstrous Taco Bell order; it was his teammate Dorian Finney-Smith, the one who had been responsible for introducing Luka to Taco…

Luka Doncic heard the ringing of his doorbell, and, knowing exactly who the visitor was, got up quickly from his PC desk to greet them. Practically running to the front door, he wrenched it open and saw that he had not been mistaken in his expectations: the GrubHub delivery guy was standing right there, holding…

Luka Doncic stood alone in the ancient underbelly of the American Airlines Center. Around him were the crumbling remains of the Spanish mission upon which the arena had been built. Some months ago, Dirk had shown him the secret stairways which led to the forgotten stone corridors and ever-burning torches. Many secrets were held here,…

I thought Luka Doncic was supposed to be injured, but he clearly played at least some minutes in this game (I challenge anybody to score 27 points in zero minutes of playing time – it’s simply not possible), so he must not be as injured as I assumed. You know that Rick Carlisle wouldn’t play…

When you factor this game’s attempts into account, Luka Doncic is schooting 22% from three in the month of March. This is on eight attempts per game. Coincidentally, Doncic was 0-of-8 from three in this four-point loss to the Kings. What could the explanation be for his exceptionally cold shooting lately? -Taco bell addiction which…

I’m sitting here in abject confusion right now. The Dallas Mavericks, who are, at best, an okay NBA team, and are often much worse than that, just beat the Golden State Warriors (who remain favorites for chip) by 35 points. 35 friggin’ points. That sentence is so offensive to me that I could barely force…
Read MoreLuka Doncic 24 Points/6 Assists/2 Dunks Full Highlights (3/20/2019)
It took almost the entire season, but Luka Doncic is finally hitting the rookie wall. Not running straight into it, really, but more like gently nudging it while running alongside it. As the season lurched into February with Doncic actually speeding up instead of slowing down, I was hopeful that he’d be one of the…

Luka Doncic has been struggling for the past few weeks, shooting poorly from three and from the free throw line. However, just as a small amount of heretical doubt was creeping into my mind, he comes back at me with this big-time triple-double that erases any fears about him slowing down as the season comes…

Luka Doncic was already a lock for the ROTY of the Year award, but how much MORE of a lock would he be if had the opportunity to put “game winning poster dunk on national TV” on his resume? He could put it right between the bullet points that say “6 years experience playing Fortnite…
