Luka midrange game?

[hakeemfan]

People should go back to the scouting reports or watch some of his older games in spain. He was a good midrange shooter but with the transition to the NBA he made adjustments to his game and abandoned it in favor of 3s, layups and floaters. Not a question about him being able to shoot it.
Him taking less midrange shots is part of the reason why he is more efficient this year. He reduced the volume even more compared to last year.

That’s why asked for some highlights. I did not see much. 

Taking less mid range and more step back 3s which he shot poorly in Europe and here is not a way to increase efficiency. 

For those saying that shot is dead tell that to Kawhi and Bron. If this is a conscious decision on Luka’s part then someone is not sitting down with him and showing him his poor 3 pt percentages.

Luka shooting 31.5% from 3 is more efficient than Kawhi shooting 43.7% from midrange. LBJ is shooting 36% from midrange.

 Luka is a mediocre shooter. He needs to get better. Has fuck all to do with developing a midrange game.

 Look at FT percent. Harden’s been over 85%. Luka is mid 70s. He’ll get there eventually.

Harden still struggles in the playoffs.  If you don’t have variety to your game you will be exposed in the playoffs. Also Harden gets the calls in the regular season and it still dries up in the post season. Luka doesn’t even get those in the regular season.
