Totally agree with you and I'm in the same camp as you. I believe Luka HAS to take those shots to keep the defense honest. He's not going to shoot 12% for his career. Even at a 33% clip, teams need to guard that, which makes them give up space for drives.

I think I've just about decided that I prefer "reckless, heat-check Luka."
Also totally agree with you. I think more often than not, Luka shooting the ball is better normally than anyone else shooting the ball. So I say shoot away Luka.
