The ball just does move right when it goes his way…he’s a career 28% 3 pt shooter and 28% this season. His use may be limited to subbing him in on defense and say Knecht in on offense in crunch time….

FROM ABOVE ARTICLE:

Speaking after the game, Jarred Vanderbilt spoke about the Luka Doncic ejection. Vanderbilt, who got a technical from the referees as well, believes there’s more to the story.

In fact, the referee refused to let Doncic plead his case, saying he would speak to anyone but the Slovenian. The Lakers star speculated that the referees had some personal issue with Doncic.

“The ref was just like, ‘I don’t want to talk. I will talk to anybody but Luka [Doncic].’ It seemed a little personal at that point. He was just advocating for me.”

Hey @NBA you wonder why ratings are down, look at the Lakers Thunder game. Refs taking over the game and ejecting Luka… Horrible— Bailey (@ohitsbaileyy_) April 9, 2025

BREAKING: EVERYONE WHO WAS QUESTIONABLE HAS BEEN UPGRADED TO PROBABLE — Lakers All Day Everyday (@LADEig) April 8, 2025

This is the right decision. Can’t assume you win any games and all you need is 2. Take as many swings as possible and try to get 2 in the next 3 to be able to sit on Sunday https://t.co/NxUoyVGNCL— Matt (@SportsMatt12) April 8, 2025

Lakers win tonight and tomorrow or Friday at worst and they can rest Luka, Bron and AR over a week (first playoff game won’t be until Saturday or the following Sunday) and have them skip flying to Portland. This would be ideal for some much needed rest and practice bfr playoffs— QuestFor18 (@HisandHerLakers) April 8, 2025

This past week, Nikola Jokic averaged 45.0 PPG, 12.3 RPG, 10.7 APG.The Denver Nuggets lost all 3 of those games.Fire the entire front office. Calvin Booth is a terrible GM. pic.twitter.com/P5d5AQ3Yv6— Scott Reichel (@ReichelRadio) April 7, 2025

One name to keep an eye on as it relates to the Nuggets’ vacant GM opening: Bob Myers.Building a contender around Nikola Jokic could intrigue Myers to return:“If I was building a team to win a championship, Nikola Jokic would be my first pick,” Myers said earlier this season. pic.twitter.com/qyk950ye0H— Evan Sidery (@esidery) April 8, 2025

DENVER MAKES SMART MOVE FIRING MALONEOn contrary, I see this as a smart move by the Nuggets. They already decided to fire Malone and Booth this summer and it makes sense with a few games left in the regular season to see if Adelman can be their coach of the future.
