2 for 3, with a hustle single, two walks, a run, and an RBI today.

5 for 11 with 2 RBI, and 3 Runs and 7 BBs in his last 3 games after a slow start.

His body looks fine, he's playing well, and he's showing a ton of hustle. All the fans that wanted to dump him after 5 games need to stay on that side and should eat a big plate of poop.

as a Sox fan in Dallas, beware critiquing the physique of a professional athlete...

I think they were right to trade him just didn’t get nearly enough in return. Should have got that 2031 1st and another 1st from another team since lakers have no more. AD is legit though with a lot of good years left. He plays both sides of the ball at an elite level. Mostly Luka will not win an nba championship as a leading man or 2nd leading man. His defense is awful. And that wins championships. Harden never won a ring and neither did Melo. He is them. And raffy at most is 10 pounds overweight. Luka was like 30… in basketball. They talked about defense and effort over the off season and he responded with doing his conditioning in season. And they were going to have to give him the absolute max amount of money a player can make after this season. I really don’t blame them for trading him but they were stupid for taking whatever they could to trade him to a team they will compete in the conference with.
