MAVS NEWS:

[SleepingHero]

Repeating myself here, but I think there was a play during game 3 where Luka got knocked down with no whistle and Westbrook whipped his leg (did not look purposeful if I’m remembering right) think it was actually the game where Westbrook hit Luka after the whistle also and grabbed his arm before ejection. 

I tried to find the video of it to no avail.

That was the big moment in the playoffs. Cato said that since that moment he's been 45-118 (38%) on shots  but he's been pretty hobbled even before that. Luka has legit never been in that shooting territory for his entire career. He's definitely more injured than the Mavs and even Luka himself are letting on. In December it was his hamstring, then sometime later they said his knee. 

He hasn't been healthy for a long time but Luka refuses to rest (despite the fact he's said rest would do nothing). I admire his gumption and love that he's doing everything he can to win. Unfortunately he just doesn't seem healthy enough right now and that's just unlucky.
