500 pound gorilla

I think Luka is the 500 pound gorilla. What does he do? Whatever he wants. His stature makes him hard to coach, hard to discipline, hard to be the boss of. You want that 500 pound gorilla on your side. You may not know how to deal with him, but neither does the opponents.

Luka seems to be hard to play with, on court, due to his ball domination. Others knew how to play off of him. Seemed like when Luka was out, the team played faster and moved the ball better. Maybe Nico noticed that and thought the Mavs were better without him. Don't know. In spurts, it looked like it, but Luka's affect on the other team is a factor. He's intimidating. Other teams haven't really stopped him. They tend to stop his teammates, to stop Luka, and hope Luka doesn't beat them by himself.

Trading the 500 pound gorilla is not a good idea, unless he's too old to play.

Give the man a prize he has stated a fact we all know and hold as the gospel truth. So let it be written so let it be done.

He is too much talented, his shape is just "ok" but it's enough.

I take him over a ripped low talented guy.

Flagg is the new 500 pound gorilla. Where does he play? (Wherever he wants). PF? SF? AD might be redundant if Cooper is a PF, PJ, if Cooper is a SF. There are cheaper backups than those guys.
