Mavericks' Rick Carlisle discusses how NBA coaches will push for....

Detroit Pistons fans clearly messed with the wrong one this weekend.

The Pistons met the Mavericks for a home game on Saturday. During the contest, the Detroit faithful decided to serenade Dallas star Luka Doncic with a (very lame) chant. They were heard chanting “Luka sucks!” to the four-time All-NBA First Teamer.

Regrettably though, the Pistons fans quickly learned that Doncic does not, in fact, suck. He ended up posting a 39-10-10 triple-double to lead Dallas to an easy 142-124 victory over Detroit.

After the game, Doncic was asked about the chant and gave a brutal retort.

“In Detroit? Come on man,” Doncic savagely quipped.

“I’m good,” he added. “I don’t know why they would do that. I love it. They know it’s not true and they keep going, so I love it.”

Doncic is well aware that the Pistons have the worst record in the NBA at 10-53. In fact, Saturday’s loss to the Mavericks officially eliminated them from playoff contention … with 19 games still left to play in the season.

A chant of “Luka sucks!” isn’t even remotely creative either and, in fact, is one of the rare ones that can immediately be disproven. That said though, at least Pistons fans are pretty good when it comes to taunting their own team.

Los Angeles Lakers guard D’Angelo Russell on Friday silenced his critics for at least one night.

Russell was a one-man offense in the Lakers’ 123-122 win over the Milwaukee Bucks at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, Calif.

Russell shot a blistering 17/25 from the field and 9/12 from beyond the arc. He also tallied 6 rebounds and 9 assists.

The 1-time All-Star was responsible for 21 of the Lakers’ 27 points in the fourth quarter. He also sank the go-ahead floater with 6 seconds left in the game to put the Lakers up for good.
