He's so special on offense and fun to watch. Plus he's clutch AF in the playoffs. That stuff can't be taught. This is really just sickening. I don't think I'll get past this one..
This, this, and this.
The only thing I can think of is that ownership told Nico that they didn’t want to pay Luka the supermax and Nico took the bullet for them. Even with that he could have got so much more. Celts might not give up a Tatum. Minny might not give up Ant. Both those teams would have thought long and hard though. That’s how good Luka is.
And Nico, gun to his head or not, said..no thanks. I will jump at the first offer and take a broken down 32 year old and a distant first.
