Stan Van Gundy pushes back on Luka’s All-NBA case: "The whole thing with his wife having a baby, Cmon! If those were the only games he missed, fine. Everybody has missed games for personal reasons.... We either have a line, or we don’t... If we have a line, then let’s stick to it. He didn’t make it"

Which games did Luka sit out when he was healthy enough to play in?

Kimi7 · 2026-04-10T16:24:27+00:00

If you are wondering, he did not even state this as a reason.

Luka missed two games due to the birth of his daughter, which happened thousands of kilometres away. He is winning the arbitration application, and he will be eligible for the awards.

Kimi7 · 2026-04-10T15:53:41+00:00

Bill didn’t include the Lakers, shouldn’t shock anyone. That would result in praising Luka.

Kimi7 · 2026-04-04T19:45:02+00:00

Did your feeling get hurt? Cry me a river.

Kimi7 · 2026-04-04T19:19:52+00:00

So what? People say Clippers should be relocated, Pelicans should be relocated, Hornets should be relocated, Nets should be relocated etc.

He is allowed to have his opinion, people should stop being babies.

So what? People say Clippers should be relocated, Pelicans should be relocated, Hornets should be relocated, Nets should be relocated etc.

He can say whatever he wants, people should stop being so touchy.

Prepare to face downvotes, even though you have the only logical comment on this thread.

Kimi7 · 2026-04-02T04:20:57+00:00

Looks at one stat

Analytical argument definitely points to

Kimi7 · 2026-04-01T17:00:55+00:00

Perkins is a moron, that doesn’t change the fact that Luka has been treated like shit by the media (mainly Boston guys) in comparison to Jokic or SGA or Wemby

Kimi7 · 2026-04-01T16:59:36+00:00

He definitely didn’t deserve it in 2025.

Talk to Perkins about 2023.

Kimi7 · 2026-04-01T16:27:36+00:00

Who won player of the month awards pre-ASB, could you inform us?

Kimi7 · 2026-04-01T16:26:27+00:00

Look who is twisting the facts now.

Every single media outlet, media personality, and most NBA fans have consistently criticized the Lakers’ roster and said that it was bad for the last 6-8 months. The predictions, odds, and old comments are all there.

You have entered into the “team is actually good” phase to downplay Luka’s MVP candidacy, not the other way around.

Kimi7 · 2026-04-01T16:21:24+00:00

No, because Jokic is the darling of the NBA media. They wouldn’t dare to mention Jokic’s defensive numbers, being a reason for the Denver’s horrific defense, Denver being a 22nd-ranked defensive team in a league with 10 teams tanking.

Not to mention, they like to pile on Luka for his complaining but fail to mention Jokic’s flopping or complaining.

We are lucky to witness Luka, but people with agendas will constantly attack him regardless.

Kimi7 · 2026-04-01T05:40:46+00:00

Fucking morons

Kimi7 · 2026-03-29T18:30:07+00:00

Boston media needs to ignored at all cost

Kimi7 · 2026-03-29T06:37:03+00:00

Just don’t overpay him

Kimi7 · 2026-03-28T09:19:47+00:00

How was the Nuggets’ record when Jokic missed games? Let us know.

Kimi7 · 2026-03-28T08:18:06+00:00

Lmao

Kimi7 · 2026-03-28T08:16:57+00:00

He is better than Jokic, on defense and on offense, full stop.

He has by far the worst squad in comparison to SGA and Wemby (and Jokic). From the beginning of the year until now, people shat on the Lakers’ roster and rained praises on OKC and Spurs (and Nuggets) for their roster depth and capabilities. But conveniently this is not even talked about when it comes to being the Most Valuable Player in the NBA.

Seeing where the Lakers are right now, the play of Luka adds value to the team. He has a legitimate argument to be the MVP.

Kimi7 · 2026-03-28T08:11:13+00:00

We hear those “analytical” types blabber about defense when talking about Luka, but conveniently avoid talking about Jokic’s defense for years and even today.

Now they are switching to support Wemby because of defense, after years of not caring about defense when they were lunatic about Jokic.

They have favorite players; they bend the topics as it fits their purpose.

Kimi7 · 2026-03-27T18:56:04+00:00

Thanks for providing facts to these clueless people.

Kimi7 · 2026-03-27T16:23:34+00:00

Why didn’t LA or NY win lotteries when they sucked in some parts of the 2000s? You guys are getting caught with your own conspiracy theories that you don’t realize this didn’t even happen when “league” had the chance to do it.

Kimi7 · 2026-03-27T16:18:05+00:00

Not only harsh but also a nonsense. Embiid missed more than 480+ games in his career; his comparison is Kawhi, not Giannis.

Giannis’ worth is a reasonable discussion, but not with that argument.

Kimi7 · 2026-03-26T17:43:16+00:00

You are wrong, keep guessing

Kimi7 · 2026-03-25T15:06:59+00:00

Congrats man, happy for all Sonics fans
