KL and SH have summed up the performances exceedingly well, hats off to both.
I would add that this game is encouraging because it is a B2B win on the road without Luka playing at an MVP level. It shows the growth of the overall team that, even when missing an important piece, they can still compete (and win!) against a high level opponent with the factors stacked against them. This should be a warning to the rest of the league.
I know Slovenia is Luka's home and he obviously likes going back to his roots in the off season, (I think he's buying a farm there?), but I wonder what would happen if he chose to spend a bigger chunk of the summer in DAL working with the coaching staff and teammates to refine their play styles and prepare for a potential championship run. No disrespect intended for out Slovenian board members. I don't know what his summer schedule was like, but the little news I heard was from there and I have the impression Luka arrived just in time for training camp. My apologies in advance if I'm mistaken.
