Rich Paul was quiet when Max Kellerman blasted Los Angeles Lakers star Luka Doncic.

Paul and Kellerman took part on the February 18 episode of the Game Over podcast. The latter didn’t stop Doncic, calling out the Lakers star for constantly complaining to officials, while making bold comments about him and Boston Celtics head Jaylen Brown.

“Every single trip down the floor, you’re complaining to the refs. Luka, every single trip down the floor, you’re complaining to the refs. Even when he hits shots. No, you’re not going to get another one. And it can’t be that the refs blow every call on Luka Doncic,” Kellerman said at the 18:08 mark.

“Rich, you and I both saw it last night. Jaylen Brown is better than Luka Doncic. Better player, I’d like to have him on the team. If I had to start a team, I’d like to start it with Jaylen Brown.”

Paul responded, “Jaylen Brown is a very good player,” as Kellerman quickly responded, “He’s better than Luka.”

Luka Doncic, what’s next for the Lakers

It’s clear that Luka Doncic is one of the best players in the entire NBA. However, his tendency to make too many mistakes and complain to officials may present a flaw in his on-court mentality.

Doncic is going through his seventh season in the league, his second with the Lakers. He is playing at a high level, producing 32.8 points, 8.5 assists and 7.7 rebounds per game in 44 appearances. He is shooting 47.1% from the field, including 35.5% from beyond the arc and 77.6% from the free-throw line.

Los Angeles has a record of 34–22 on the season, finishing fifth in the Western Conference standings. They have the tiebreaker advantage over the Minnesota Timberwolves and are ahead of the Phoenix Suns by two games. However, they trail the Houston Rockets by 0.5 games and the Denver Nuggets by one game.

The Lakers will prepare for the final game of an eight-game homestand. They will host the Orlando Magic as tip-off takes place on February 24 at 10:30 PM ET.

While Conor McGregor claims he is ready to return to the Octagon, and against anyone, he is becoming publicly frustrated by the lack of updates from the UFC.

It makes sense that Dana White and the UFC would move on from the idea of ​​McGregor fighting again. After two losses to Dustin Poirier and a serious foot injury in 2021, the Irish superstar remains on the sidelines.

He was going to face Michael Chandler in 2023 and again in 2024. However, “Notorious” stopped short of returning to the drug testing program, then withdrew from the planned bout due to a toe injury suffered two years ago. This gave many people in and around the company the impression that McGregor had retired and they did not want to accept it.

However, when the UFC revealed plans for a fight card on the White House lawn last year, McGregor immediately made it known he wanted to be involved. Still, many questioned how serious he was about returning to the cage after five years and at the age of 37.

Conor McGregor still waiting for UFC comeback opponent

Well, the future UFC Hall of Famer seems to be honest about his desire to return sometime this year, and has posted videos of him training for his return fight. Furthermore, he has claimed that he is as outspoken as he has been in years. last week,

White claimed that he and his team had planned the entire card for the White House event in June. This would suggest that he has contacted McGregor about a fight on the card. Well, it seems they haven’t, and the Irish are becoming frustrated with the lack of communication.

“Day 15 of ‘I accept, send contract’,” McGregor wrote in a post on X on Monday morning.

An important part of McGregor’s contract is to receive pay-per-view points for his bouts. However, the company is not currently doing PPVs after reaching a $7.7 billion deal to air all of their programs on Paramount+, so that part of their deal cannot be fulfilled.

It’s possible that the UFC knows he may not be on the White House card and are still not sure how they can get him back into the Octagon while still meeting his financial demands. That means the saga of whether he will fight again or not will not end soon.
