I suppose I am more high than all three of you still. Luka's gravest sins are his incessant complaining, inconsistent defense, and shotty conditioning. Are these bad things? Of course, but in terms of "worst traits to have" they are far from the worst. They are only so annoying because they are so fixable. THATS why we're annoyed. Not with the actions themselves but the perceived inactions from Luka. But look at his last 3 years and see what he's done individually. 32/9/9 on 48/36/76 with a WCF AND Finals appearance under him. I mean that's just bonkers stuff.
I still see a passionate, fiery competitor that lays it all on the line. He does magical things with the ball that very few, if ever, have done.
Is he having the roughest stretch of his entire career thus far? Sure. It IS hard to watch him right now struggle. And I mean he has basically struggled the last 33 games if we're counting playoffs too. Soooooo I get it.
But he should eventually snap back into who he is. He is still Luka. I will always pull for him.
