I think ideal usage of Luka would have him scoring ~21 pts with ~13 asts a night, with most of his scoring coming in the 4th quarter.

Because I think Luka has Nash ability to get everyone involved (better than Lebron) and I think it prolongs Luka's career and longevity to not have to score almost 30 a game.

I agree with you that Luka has that ability the likes of the best to ever do it in terms of setting people up and getting them involved. But I think the backbone of that playmaking comes because of his threat to score. Nash probed and probed and probed and was slicing through defenses until he found a pass he liked.

Luka uses the threat of him to score to open up lanes. If Luka toned down his scoring those lanes shrink. Further, despite Luka's otherworld talent of setting people up, his scoring ability is that much better. It'd be a shame for him to turn that down (and possibly a massive mistake).

I think Luka could seriously average 40 a game.
