2021 FREE AGENCY: Markkanen wants out of CHI | DAL "definitely interested"

And a 2nd round exit with Lowry is going to move those data points for Luka?  Doubtful.

For once, I'm with you.  Luka isn't Dirk or Giannis.  I am not sure I agree with your timetable but I'm not that far of either.

I like Luka, but I think we keep saying this "he's not Dirk or Giannis" over and over, because we see the most of the players in the NBA aren't like them...but everything that I've ever seen from Luka tells me that he's loyal, stubborn, does things his way and isn't worried about personal acclaim, personal awards, or worried about making money (as in, he KNOWS he's getting paid).

It wouldn't surprise me, especially with him experiencing that last year of Dirk and the reputation and organic, one of a kind celebrations he received throughout the season.  Not one bit of surprise.
