Former Los Angeles Lakers legend Michael Cooper on Luka Doncic:
“Luka gives you a triple-double almost every night, but he’s too slow for me. If he wasn’t a scorer, I would cut him. But he can score, so you have to give him credit. To me, he is lazy and doesn’t hustle back on defense.”

Have you ever seen a white player "rip" a black one? It's just racism when they rip him, because once the game starts they guard him with multiple players throughout the game. And that says more than some guy yapping on twitter.
77!!!
77 MFers !
Michael Cooper should change his name to Michael Pooper.
It’s a common theme this wannabe superstar players who were actual just role players always come out of the woodwork and trash Luka. We know why they do it it’s obvious because he’s white and that his career trajectory is so high that they are doing whatever they can to trash him because if any black player did what Luka has in his career they would be saying he’s the next Lebron or MJ like they did with Ant after 2 games in a playoff series then he shit himself. These people don’t like international players they never have it’s why Duncan, Hakeem, Dirk etc are not even considered in peoples top 10 all time and always use the line of “oh this or that guy is or could be the best international player ever”. They are gatekeeping that’s all.
I don't have a problem with Michael Cooper's assessment. What I am tired of is the constant talk about Luka being the MVP of the league; although you guys agree that his defense is average. Quite frankly, the ball hogging is extremely boring and much different than the style Cooper enjoyed with the Lakers "Showtime"
F cooper he a hater, he should’ve criticized the Lakers about losing to the Nuggets again in the playoffs
F the haters

The Mavs can win 60 games That's their ceiling for me minimum 55 games 56 games we're going to be really good better than last year but yeah I'm going for the max 60 wins 53.5 is too low
Michael Coopers sole job was to hustle.
If you were the person that had all the offense run through you for 45 mins every game, you would be tired as well. It got muuuuuch better when the Mavs had other alternatives, and he could rest for a few mins. The Luka narrative has been made by people that can't think critically.
The same reason why I've been saying I been about this tean needed a speed bunny, that blows by defenders and bring some with him, move the ball faster. Probably one of the main reasons we won in 2011 was because of that chance of Barea. Speed kills. Look at TJ MConnell and how he played and IND played better than us against BOS.
77 man fuk the haters man
Wonder what Cooper's usage rate was compared to Luka's.
Cooper is right, but…
Cut him and replace him with whom? 🤔 Someone Luka cooked on an open fire, 99/100. 😂
