This is a Luka centric post. Looking at his stats, it doesn’t appear off from past years. Watching the games tell a different story. He legs aren’t right and he is doing it all on iq and guts. I am sure he will round into form as the season goes along (if he is able to stay away from a longer term issue), but it has been so long since we saw a healthy, in shape Luka that I am wondering if that version is going to be exception moving forward. Man, have I missed the quick and strong Luka who can use his strength and his quickness to just give the defense no answers. It feels like he is getting to the rim much less often this year. Props to him for gutting through games, but it is tough watching him move out there. There has been a few moments where I thought he was moving well but typically based on quarters or half’s…not full games.
Second, the public frustration with his teammates on the court has to stop. Like today! Some other stars do it…like LeBron. But we are seeing it multiple times a game. I get some of this stuff is what makes Luka great, but he needs to control his emotions more. There is a time to have these discussions and they should be much less public, but the death glares need to stop immediately.
