Luka isn't like Jim at all.

He's led his team to a Finals as the top dog.

went to the finals and got absolutely exposed basically swept

They got lucky kawahi got hurt and then had two inexperienced teams in okc and Minnesota who weren’t ready for the moment

Soft road in the playoffs: no Denver, No prime GS warriors

and they got absolutely outclassed against a real team

Vegas figured Luka was too focused on pounding beers and cheeseburgers and not focused on basketball and being a leader

seems that many have “figured” it that’s why the Mavs dumped him for an aging always injured AD

I can’t help it if the Mavs front office made the worst trade in NBA history…

Gary Payton from the Sun for Ray Allen from the Bucks is still the worst trade, pending the outcome of this one

He went to the NBA finals last year, and went to the WCF another year. Do you even watch basketball?

which is why the Celtics gentlemen swept the Mavs

It wasn’t even as close as the 5 game series suggested one of the most lop sided series of all time

Luka will never win anything of note unless he focuses on his conditioning and learns to play some defense

Luka being terrible at defense is over hyped. Is he a top tier, lock down 1 on 1 defender? No not at all. But his defense made Dallas better when healthy. He plays passing lanes well, rebounds well.


I don't seem to recall anyone hanging 91 on the Mavs in the first half with Luka.

This is a joke right? He's not Jordan Poole or Trae bad, but he's a terrible defender and is often times lazy on defense. And by Jason Kidds own words spent too much time arguing with refs over calls that he doesn't get back on defense. You can watch videos of his defense that are just outright embarrassing.

Yes, his rebound numbers are nice, but that doesn't make his defense better,

Best win % of the generation for a player who has played anything close to the same amount of games.

Also most wins in the entire nba since 09-10 (rookie season). Luka isn’t the only guy who doesn’t win as much.
