Luka Dealt to Lakers: Nico Harrison is a Basketball Terrorist

[khaled1987]

I doubt it truthfully. Dirk himself said he barely did anything for Luka his rookie year because he already came in playing like a pro. Maybe Luka would’ve built some better habits just by being in proximity to Dirk but i don’t think that’s how Luka operates. 

Still there is no excuse as to why he can’t keep himself at the apex of his physical condition. Doesn’t take away that he’s arguably the best player in the world when healthy. I miss my Slovenian. *Siri, play Miki Milane*

Didn't Dirk say it was KP the one who tries to learn the most from him? Luka didn’t have that much interest. 

I think Luka likes and respects Dirk and it is mutual. But I do agree that a Haslem role wouldn't have made that much difference for him.
