Its the Don, the GOAT.
At the start of game, Barnes was covering Luka tightly, I thought Barnes would give him a tight matchup with that length and athleticism. Luka was physical from the very beginning and throughout the game. At the end of game, Luka wore down Barnes so extensively over the course of this game, that at the very end Barnes was several meters away from Luka on numerous plays, almost giving up on trying to cover him.
What a stark contrast compared to early in the game where Barnes was in the face of Luka. Best comparison to this is a boxing match. Where you protect tightly your head in the beginning but as you wear down taking many hits, you can't even hold your hands up at the end. That was totally Barnes. The last two baskets was the KO move for the win.
Barnes got quiet a lesson. But Barnes is really impressive, he will become a lock down defender and big name in the league. There is absolutely no question about it. I'd throw in a lot for a trade for that guy. Barnes will and is already having an impact in this league.
