OT Luka

[superjohn]

Luka tends to be fat and out of shape. It's a testament to how great a basketball player he is that he's still among the handful of best players on the planet.

That doesn't seem to be a particularly hard concept to grasp for other people in this thread, but you seem to be really struggling with it. hOpE tHaT hElPs.

Not sure why he's choosing to dunk all over himself over and over again but it's kind of funny to watch.

 

[BigErnMcCracken]

I’m not struggling with it. It adds nothing to the conversation like most of your drivel.

Hope that helps.

My guy, I’ve literally never said anything about how his conditioning was good. So I’m not sure what I’m wrong about.

I had an issue with one dude saying multiple times he was fat and thus might not get a max contract.

Then you and others jumped in.

I’m not dug in on anything other than “Luka is a top 5 player on earth whether in shape or not, and I would say he wasn’t well-conditioned, I wouldn’t call him FAT.”

You disagree with that? Cool.

Dudes, the memes from 2013 and calling me thin skinned for calling your intelligence into question is KILLING ME.

Anybody who watched the Finals with Boston and didn't think his conditioning really hurt the Mavs chances wasn't really paying attention. He was a major negative on the defensive end and wore down during the games. Still an incredible player, but he could be the best player in the game with more attention to his body.

Listen to the Zach Lowe podcast!!!!

You called Luka fat and out of shape for an NBA player, you monster.

I’m not saying he was in great shape. I’m saying it’s weird to be calling a top 5 player who wasn’t in great shape but still incredible “fat and out of shape” multiple times like you REALLY wanted to say fat. That’s all. It sounds weird. Dallas (allegedly) was worried about how in shape he was, they didn’t ever say “this guy is fat.”

It's all relative. For an NBA player he was fat and out of shape. If he's walking down the street people wouldn't look at him and call him fat. I'm not sure why you can't get that.

Do you think he's been the correct playing weight and in shape like the typical NBA player the last few seasons?

I guess the saying "if no one is hating, you 're not doing anything" applies here.

Bro got ripped and in fantastic shape. Need we say more. Say less.

I thought I was having some stupid dream that I was back in middle school and then I realized I was just reading The Boneyard.

It did. Tells me absolutely nothing that isn't obvious.

Hey, watch it. Or we’ll start calling you fat and out of shape.

I'm round. Round is a shape.

Don’t try to stop this little tug of war now I have popcorn finally.

2 real good posters just having a BY disagreement don’t ruin a good thing, the kids are home with their families we won’t have much to talk about until they return to campus. More of this is needed for 2 weeks shows how gritty and plucky the Yard can be!

So if you're "out of shape" does that mean you have no shape? Like a shape shifter?

Which ones are the good posters?

It was a joke

 

[Kitaman]

I would bet being around LeBrron's daily conditioning regiment impacted him. And rightfully so.

That is the nicest thing you've ever said to me. Lol

 

[ctkaiser]

Michael Kay and David Cone were just chatting with a guest in their booth. The camera showed them and I thought, 'who is that? He's thin and fit.' Thought he was an injured Yankee. Nope. It was Luca.

They showed picture of him with Judge who looks a couple of inches taller. Both are Jordan brand players.

 

[Chin Diesel]

Only question left for the BY to uncover id Doncic using Ozempic, Zepbound or Munjaro.

Wait, are you saying he was fat?

 

[HuskyHawk]

I would bet being around LeBrron's daily conditioning regiment impacted him. And rightfully so.

Even though he was never out of shape, Lebron made a decision to lose some 15-20 pounds about 10 years back to reduce the overall stress on his body and get quicker. So it wouldn't surprise me if it he discussed that with Luka.

He’s trying to be funny - it’s going as well as you’d expect.

Speaking of podcasts, Jacoby and Vernon were talking today about how interesting it was in the article that Luka mentions Jordan, Kobe, Kyrie ... never says a word about Lebron. I haven't read the Men's Health article yet, but I do find that curious as well.

 

[TheChamps990411]

Disagree. Why couldn’t Dallas get him to get in this shape? Shame on them.

Have you eaten Texas BBQ?

 

[Chin Diesel]

Also, hopefully he's taking the stairs to his crib on the 2nd floor. All those steps add up.

 

[Kitaman]

I found out in the thread argument I'm not fat, I'm just 'not well conditioned' .

So yeah don't stop it, there's some good material being thrown around.

 

[temery]

I’m gonna shock you: you’re not Luka, so the definitions might be skewed a bit.

But I’d watch out, there’s a guy who posts 10,000x a day who will jump in and make some weird, unfunny joke about you being fat now because he made an asinine post about Luka not getting a max contract.

The day you take SuperToilet seriously is the day you've lost the high ground.
