One of the best teams of LeBron James’ former teammates would love to see a little more.
Before they could achieve anything, there was debate over whether Luka Donsic was LeBron James’ greatest teammate of all time.
It’s still a little too early and now it’s time for the NBA playoffs. It’s time for the combination of LeBron James and Luka Donsic to appear.
And through the start of the Lakers series with Minnesota, this combination hasn’t really been fired yet.
Luka Doncic was impressive, scoring a total of 68 points for two. LeBron James has yet to meet the standard by his standards, scoring 40 points on two, having to do a little more defensive work for the team to allow Donsic to do his thing.
Without a doubt, former Miami Heat star Dwyane Wade, LeBron’s greatest teammate of all time, believes something is missing.
Former superstar Dwyane Wade believes LeBron James and Luca Donsic have missed out on some sw walks and have not exercised their control.
Anthony Edwards plays them in Game 1 of the series between the La Lakers and the Minnesota Timberwolves and mentions what comes up
Wade argues that LeBron and Luka need to doubt viewers and fans as they are undoubtedly the best in the business.
He told the podcast:
“When I’m watching basketball and watching Luka and LeBron, if they lose, you can lose, but I and you both want to have the worst m on the planet together.
“You see that game, you’re the worst m….. in that court I don’t like it.”
Dismissing Doncic’s impressive points sum, Wade claims it’s about how superstars carry themselves, who can make the biggest difference.
“It’s not just the point. It’s sometimes about the way you walk, the way you speak, it’s about the way you stood up after you fell, sometimes I need to see it.
“I didn’t see it, I saw them playing basketball, JJ said that, they came out with regular season energy.
“When I saw LeBron in playoff mode, it turned out to be, ‘It’s the best player on the court, and it’s the best player in the world.’
“I need to see it from him and Luka, it’s sw walking, it’s the way you walk, the way you talk to people, it’s the whole thing.”
The LA Lakers improved to win Game 2 of the series, and his post-match interview was praised by former star Robert Holly, who saw signs of his focus.
“We had to bring the same mindset we were tonight, and that was the playoff game, and we were able to play with energy, strength and effort, not the property we could take off.
“After this game, if your dog’s butt isn’t tired, after any of these games, you gave nothing you had.”
The first game was a mess. LeBron had laughed at the way he had appealed to officials on the phone, showing some despair.
Getting victory under their belt gave them a big lift, and it’s not surprising to see LeBron James and Luka Donsic show their control at one stage – on the other side, it’s clear that the Timberwolves will set up a real fight.
