I am not very critical of Luka's defense for these reasons:
What the MBT should do:
- He has limits, not quick enough against most guards.
- He shoulders a lot in offense, asking him to play top level defense will burn him out before half time.
- Arguing with the refs -- it's already bad enough Luka jogs on transition D, arguing with the refs adds to the problem and this needs to be addressed.
What the MBT should do:
- Obviously someone has to share the load in offense, if you want Doncic to have more energy for D, his load in offense should be less. Feature Wood more in offense not only in Luka lineups but specialy on non-Luka lineups. If SD can't be as good as partner for Wood in the pick and roll, find someone who can. And of course this leads to the lacking playmaker/bahhandler.
