I guarantee Luka will never, ever play in a game 82 ever again, unless a literal playoff spot is on the line.
Injuries can happen at any time. Luka was 2 minutes away from being pulled and he made a normal movement that lead to a strain. Freak accident.
But I agree, in hindsight the Mavs shouldn't have tried their best to get the 3rd seed and accepted the 4th seed.
