Everyone treats him like a child whole tantrums are cute, instead of as a professional. I think of the vitriol James Harden got from 29 other fanbases and the national media as a guy not serious about winning.
Well, fwiw, there are 3 ways this plays out from here, imho:
1) Being a Laker gets him the friendliest whistle of all time, and this problem just sort of goes away, no personal growth required.
2) This "wake up call" for Luka kick starts his maturation and we all wonder why Harrison didn't stick it out (duh).
3) Luka pulls the same tired act in LA, in which case I promise it's all anyone will talk about. Ever.
