Shades of MSG years ago .. Luke makes the same stupid play .. Luke gets a great look, instead pump fakes, passes to Kobe with time expired .. what a bonehead play by an idiot of a ball player. ..
Thank you. It's great having a very knowledgeable poster feel the exact same way that I do about Luke!
you would think he learned his lesson? ? ?? you'd have to be stupid not to ... .... especially when everyone remembers him for that ... and now he's done it twice? wtf?? I'm so pissed
It wasn't a great look, Lebron was like 1-2 feet away and it would have been a highly contested shot or blocked. Although I agree that getting a shot up is better than no shot at all.
Laker myths ... Luke Walton has a high basketball IQ Lamar Odom has potential to be a superstar in this league

These 5 guys should have been on the court on that final play Kobe-Fisher-Farmar-Sasha-Radman Not Luke, Odom, and Turiaf

Haha, I thought I could overreact...LG.net users are calling Bynum the team's MVP. Idiots. No doubt our MIP and our 2nd best player, but no way in hell is he our MVP. God I do miss him though!
What do you expect Luke to do, if he would have shot it, everyone would have said, he should have passed it to Kobe.

There was no time left to pass to Kobe. No we wouldn't have criticized him.

What he needs is a: -shot -handles -hops -health -defense -basketball iq -passing abilities...yes they're average, but they're not great like most say. -skills -Everything else needed to be a good role player.

That takes stupid to another level. It's like if Kobe decided to go back to Eagle, CO and nail another chick .. can anyone really be that stupid?!
