The league needs to protect its bread and butter, not let teams cheat against them.Luka has the same problem Dirk and Shaq had. They don´t get as many calls as they deserve, because of their physical superiority. Why should we give him a call, he´s already 6´7 and the poor 6´2 guy can´t stay in front of him, so at least let him push him in the back, hit him on the arm, wrist or head a little. Luka needs to accept that. What´s the poor little man supposed to do otherwise?
That´s one of the shady little secrets why the post game/big man game is dead. Yeah part of it is the 3pt line, the other is that you can´t play bully ball, when the small guys can just hack away at you (without getting called regularly) and if that doesn´t help they just flop for an offensive foul.
