This photo will hang on permanent display in the museum of A** KICKINGS - Stephen A. Smith

In Stephen A.'s World, Stephen A. Smith reflects on the Phoenix Suns' Game 7 loss to the Dallas Mavericks.

[NothingbutMMORPG]

The image of a man on his road to taking over the league, clapping the suns by 30, a team that had an opportunity to draft him, Luka legend

[juliothom]

THAT picture right there has elevated Luka about 10 levels for me! He who laughs last, laughs best!

Devin Booker better not EVER have Luka's name in his mouth again!

[EvanPavon]

Luka smacked the Suns so bad that the team/sun’s management issued an apology via their social media page 😭

[ShonTV]

If the Mavs didn’t take their foot off the gas to keep Luka healthy they probably could’ve won by 60 tbh

[mambaforever]

What makes that photo even more bittersweet is all the mocking and the “Luka Special” sht Booker and CP3 were saying. Luka is like “You wanted the Luka Special? Well, take in every second of it” 😂

[leeducationjames]

Bro the fact that Luka and scored the same amount of points as Phoenix HALF WAY thru the game……. That’s crazy💀💀

[pimpjuice]

When Luka said "Everybody tough when they are after the Game 5 loss I knew the Suns were in trouble. BUT 30+ points in Game

[SpectreInk]

Bro, you have to understand. Luka didn't just destroy the Suns. He potentially annihilated the entire franchise. He beat them so bad it's highly likely they'll rebuild next season. Luka did that to the Jazz too. And he's like, 23. Just casually dismantling franchises at 23 ☠️

The minute Booker made the "Luka special" joke his playoff run ended 😂

[sldl]

Remember last year when people were calling Booker the next Kobe 😂

[Elemenopi]

Dirk gets mocked for being sick...
Luka gets mocked...
This is how you respond to trash talk, right here.

[brentdever]

I dont think its fair they gave Dallas a 30 point lead before the game started

[DukesVerrill]

Lil Wayne isn't even a Suns fan. He's a CP3 supporter. It's comical how he got upset at Luka for 'flopping' but CP3 is fine.

[talos]

Gotta love how this guy delivers this and with Luka in the background PRICELESS.

[KxngKUDA]

Here 2 years later, as he adopted Anthony Edwards and the wolves

[Tophergr]

That picture reminds me of the "Here's Johnny" scene in the Shining. Luka isn't just a killer. He's a psycho-killer.

[divefraggle]

Luka plays with so much emotion. He takes things personal, like another great player we all know.

[MrFraiche]

First Father-Son photo in the NBA. Beautiful ♥

[MisterJonesification]

Booker has escaped criticism, but to me he has turned into an underneath, cocky heel, who isn't nearly as good as he thinks he is. Before the Luka mocking, he had a stupid stare down on little Jalen Brunson, who doesn't trash talk, and simply plays hard. Booker is a good player, NOT a superstar babyface like Luka.

Punk, don't you ever disrespect those vastly superior to you.

I have watched nba basketball religiously since 2008, and I’m a lifelong Suns fan, and that was the worst professional basketball I’ve probably ever seen any team play, let alone a contender. This one hurt a thousand times worse than last year. Dallas played blitz on the ball defense while simultaneously switching to zone in the paint which means both the passing lanes and paint were clogged no matter who doubled off their man, brilliant strat by JKidd. This one’s gonna hurt for a while….
