“Carry That!”: Luka Doncic Lashes Out at Officials After Tough Carry Call, Takes it Out on the Poor Miami Heat

Luka Doncic is 23 years old. And at this young age, it appears that the man has already mastered basketball. In fact, he is making the NBA seem like kind of a joke. And when you consider that the man will only get better in the coming years, things only get scarier.

However, as hard as it may be to believe, Luka Doncic is only human.

Even the greatest players of all time have been called for certain violations at some point in their careers. And against the Miami Heat, the Slovenian superstar had one such incident.

Now, in this situation, most all-time greats did get angry. But after a few seconds, simply decided to move on with the game.

However, Doncic had a slightly different approach to the whole situation.

Many have said that Luka Doncic is turning out to be one of the most competitive players of all time. And frankly, we’re inclined to agree.

The young man can be almost Michael Jordan-esque with his mentality sometimes. But, while MJ could be motivated by absolutely everything, Doncic just doesn’t have that… right?

Well actually, it appears that he can take even the officials personally.

Admittedly, the man was very, very lucky to not have gotten a technical foul for that one. But Doncic likely doesn’t care anyway.

He’s likely just satisfied he was able to give the officials a piece of his mind.

Luka Doncic showed off his Michael Jordan-esque mentality on a very different occasion too

During the 2022 NBA playoffs, Luka Doncic and the Dallas Mavericks came up against a tough, and very confident, Phoenix Suns team. And at the time, while there wasn’t too much to separate these teams, many still considered Devin Booker and company the favorites.

At different points in the series, the Suns led with a critical advantage, being both 2-0, and 3-2 up at different stages.

And that reality famously prompted Devin Booker to do this during a game.

Uh oh.

Next thing you know the Dallas Mavericks win Game 6.

But, Game 7 is at home against the Suns. Surely, they win that game. After all, home-court advantage is a thing.

A blowout.

The time of death? This moment right after Game 5 of the series.

Michael Jordan couldn’t have executed that better if he tried.
