Is the combined talent of Luka/THJ and DFS dramatically better than Lillard, McCollum and Powell? That feels like a first round exit again.Out of the McCollum/Powell/THJ/DFS group I’m taking DFS as the best currently. THJ/McC/Powell are close enough in scoring ability. But that’s beside the point......
Comparing Luka and Dame is like comparing MJ to Barkley. Barkley(Dame) was unlikely to ever win anything on his own. Whereas MJ(Luka) is a transcendent type of star that lifts all boats and is in a totally different class of player.
After the series i want to go back and watch both tapes, but the difference in Luka between just a few months ago in the bubble vs now against LAC is amazing. The defense he’s playing now, he’s an actual plus defender this series. The midrange game. He will only get better too.........regardless of what happens i believe the MBT will do whatever it takes this summer to set ourselves up for future playoff success. Big few months ahead for our organization
