Not that Luka would ever accept something like that, as long as he can walk.
Game one of a playoff series is usually a feel out game. Having a full week of therapy and rest will do his knee wonders.
Luka is still young and has the rest of his career to look forward too. If Luka is truly hurt and by his jumper I think he really is, I would think hard about sitting him. Dallas once sat Dirk for an entire playoffs when he had a knee sprain. Him sitting out a game wouldn't be the worst thing.
