So, just like in Brooklyn he is in the right pecking order. Now, can we change our offense of Luka ball all the time? We will need to. Hopefully not your turn, my turn type of offense.
Surrounding Luka and Irving, you need big wings, good shooters, good defenders and toughness. YOu also need a real good guy who can protect the rim. Dallas is really short on this. The subtraction of DFS certainly doesn't help. What do they do to either fill in the gap of a bigger wing who can defend and hit open shots and a guy who can protect the rim?
I think we see Irving as that Luka outlet in case of doubles. Wood and Irving on each side. Pick your poison. If any of the two are left with space, its game over at the rim. Luka will start/initiate every single play. Irving and Wood will ensure that second defender stays.
