But thats not even his best gift...its processing the game and being 3 steps ahead of everyone else mentally. I will go one further with the Pro-Luka HSO's...I think he and Jokic deserve to be highest paid players in the league based on recent production....but also because their game is not based on athleticism. Jokic and Luka could have a major injury that kills other players careers due to loss of athleticism...you dont have to worry about that with Jokic and Luka. Their game is being mentally superior to others on the court. There is less risk of a career ending injury to these two.
My only concern is if the league catches up and the past 4 years of Luka that were extremely productive get far less productive due to league evolving.
He's definitely the best offensive player ever. But...look what Jaden McDaniels and Anthony Edwards did to Luka and Kyrie at the end of that game with 20 seconds to win....neither Ky or Luka could get a shot off. Completely shut down. This is what we are going to be facing in playoffs in a few years. Highly athletic, long players that use speed to shut down mentally strong players. Its an athletic game...and being able to play defense is important.
Definitely would not trade him...but Im suspicious if the League catches up quickly...like in the next 3 years.
The attack is just too stagnent and iso ball only work if the other guards shoot well .Williams and other guards have been awfull on the 3 points line lately.
Its easy to defend kyrie and doncic if they are the only threat .
Jason kidd should wake up.
