There are limits to what Luka can do offensively - 1) his own minutes (conditioning), and 2) the effect being the sole focal point (aside from a bit of Kyrie) on his ability to put forth defensive effort.
Luka has a choice. He can be the Helios, or he can be an NBA champion. He simply, binarily, and absolutely cannot be both.
