Heading into the 4th....
Luka is again team worst -17 after the team wipes out almost all of SAS's lead immediately when he goes to the bench. When he isn't playing ALL five Mavs players are playing with a collective energy, effort, and scramble that is just not there when he is playing.
Why??
1) Is Luka out of shape?
2) Is Luka nursing a nagging injury? I have seen him on the bench icing his right knee.
3) Is he pouting over something? Change of scheme on O he doesn't like? The Mavs not trading KP and getting him more reliable help?
Honestly my guess would be its a combo of all three. But I am only speculating. But he is a "effort" weak-link EASY.
