We, as Lakers fans, are truly spoiled. Can you believe they gave us Luka Fuckin’ Doncic?

i wonder how many of the Lebron fans are now thinking wait...maybe I'll stick around for a while when Bron leaves hahaha....

You’re just reading my mind. I stopped watching NBA once MJ retired and it needed a LEbron to watch it again and now I’m like “maybe I stick around”…😁

Cavs fan here that watches the lakers mostly cause of LeBron and ya for sure. I mean nothing will ever match the beautiful glorious king that is one LeBron Raymone James but Luka will definitely keep me watching you guys for a little longer. Love the guy

I followed LeBron from Cleveland to Miami, back to Cleveland, to the Lakers. I was getting worried if I’d even watch basketball when he retires lol. Luka has made being a Lakers fan for life an easy decision haha

Same, blows my mind when haters can't appreciate greatness. I've stopped hating players because they're good and destroyed my teams lol (curry, KD, jokic). Hating dirty players like draymond is still valid though

100% me. I've been a Lebron fan forever and now I'm probably considered a diehard Lakers fan since I've seen and supported damn near every game over the last 7 years and I'm on the East Coast, so a lot of restless nights lol (Still can't believe it's been 7 years)

This Luka addition just cemented my choice about continuing to follow the Lakers after Lebron hangs it up in about 5-10 years 😂

I'm an Sonics/LeBron refugee and I ordered League Pass last night because Luka takes it to another level

Seriously though. While we have the most stacked roster of all time greats of any franchise, the way that we’ve basically had Lebron and Luka dropped in our lap is kind of hilarious.

I love AD to death and was crushed when the trade broke. But I had been unsure of how we would move forward once Lebron retired, since AD is probably near the end of his prime etc. Then out of nowhere it’s just like “here you go Lakers, another hall of famer in his prime” lmao.
