In this episode , we talk about Luka Doncic's first game against the Mavs as a member of the Los Angeles Lakers. It was a weird, emotionally charged night as Mavs fans got to see their hero suit up against Dallas for the first time ever. Despite a relatively quiet scoring night, Luka picked apart the Mavericks, recording a triple-double of 19 points, 15 rebounds, & 12 assists. Though it wasn't the monster night many were expecting from #77, this game represents how dangerous the Lakers are with a healthy and motivated Luka Dončić, and how glaring of a hole the Mavs offense has in his absence.

We love you, Luka, go be great.
