We obviously rave about his skill but for me the best part of the series so far is his physical dominance. Luka looks big. Even next to guys like PG, Morris, Kawhi or Batum. I expected him to take advantage of smaller guards but he is taking it to another level. Playing bully in the post. Defenders just bouncing off him on drives. Really satisfying to watch.
Luka is listed at 6´7/230. I think Brunson mentioned that he is closer to 250. Legit PF size. Bigger than some small ball centers (Love 6´8/250, Kleber+Powell 6´10/240, Harrell 6´7/240). PG and Kawhi are in the 220-230 range. Maybe he looks a little bit chubby and out of shape but I cannot argue with the results.

I deeply dislike PG (largely for the whole incident with Seth's wife), but I have to give him major props for being stand-up enough to speak with the class involved here.

Sounds like PG is admitting that LACs have zero answer for Luka.

I think they are going to try and bully Luka on Friday with Morris, Leonard, PG. It worked last year, they couldn't beat him so they beat him up.

"...while making his teammates better."

Bears repeating. Probably should get taped to everyone's locker.

Probably didn't help that Senior elbowed him in the head.

His crybabying about the foul not being overturned is one of the most abjectly offensive things I've seen in our two series with the Clitts. No, Marcus, you don't get to elbow our superstar in the cranium and not get called for a foul. A$$hole.
That was an incredible performance.  But the free throw shooting is cheeks.
