2 weeks ago 15

We watched a new incredible finish at the match between the LA Lakers and the Minnesota Timberwolves, and the referees had to watch the footage again.

In the end, the Minnesota team won by three points, and the final score was 116:113.

During the entire game, the visiting team was in pain, but the Lakers managed to be there and not let the opponent "unstick".

Although the Lakers had their advantage in the first half, it was the guests who went to the break with the lead, and the score was 61:58.

In the second half, Luka Dončić took everything upon himself and held the advantage on the Lakers' side almost until the very end.

An unusual situation occurred when Dončić fell, but he asked for a time-out in time, and saved the ball for his team.

However, after that time-out, LeBron James lost the ball during the execution, and the Minnesota players did not keep it.

Nevertheless, the coach of Minnesota asked for a challenge, and it was determined that LeBron James had committed a foul, so the visitors got two free throws and 10 seconds before the end they had a three point difference.

Luka Dončić scored 38 points in this match, but even that was not enough for his team to win this match.

Statements

After the match, Dončić was attacked by fans on social networks, all because of poor physical preparation and mistakes in key moments.

"Everyone will say he scored 38 points, but he was desperate in defense and his attacking style is a disasterHe didn't pass the ball to anyone for five minutes in the last quarter."

"He complains too much and seems like a player who wants a foul more than a basket. He always does it at the worst possible time."

"I guess LeBron is "fixing" him this summer", are just some of the comments on social networks.

In the end, the Lakers did not score a three-pointer, and the guests were the ones who won another victory in the end.

The Slovenian, on the other hand, is used to such criticisms and has no intention of reacting to them, nor delving deeper into such criticisms, convinced that he is doing the right things on the NBA floors.
