Nico knew what he was talking about :yeshrug:

The issue is he isn’t able to blow by anybody anymore and he’s only 25 years old.

Having to bang bodies in the post and hoping guys go for head fakes to get an open shot is not ideal for his age
I’m not fully on board with this, but there’s some truth to it

The Mavs will be lucky to even make the playoffs after going to the Finals last season with Luka, now relying on someone who's considerably older and more injury prone than him.

You just too damn stupid.

If Lebron and Reaves can build on this three point shooting they did we will be unstoppable, especially with Luka addes to the mix.

Also Vando needs to develop a offensive game, he passed up way too many shots tonight.

@jaydawg08 cracker ass wanting Luka to fail cause he’s mad that he’s gotten more love as a Laker than Bron ever did is the funniest thing ever.
Nah that chit ain’t gonna fly white boy.. Luka needs to be the best player on this team to have a chance at a deep run. He can’t keep getting outplayed by AR15

I have strong belief in Lukas ability to rise in the playoffs as he’s already established himself as an all time playoff riser.

That being said, having watched a decent sample size of him in LA…dudes shot selection is horrific and he lacks the intangibles, athleticism, and selflessness to impact a game when he’s not shooting well.

He’s a gifted passer but also a very egotistical scorer, and when he’s struggling to find a rhythm he gets tunnel vision and tries to force the issue more instead of shifting to a facilitator role. He plays terrible defense, half due to effort and the other half being unathletic and in average shape. And bro is lazy when it comes to intangibles. Doesn’t set screens, stands around a lot off ball, has good rebounding numbers on paper but cherry picks easy ones and rarely fights for difficult ones, loses composure and gets techs or doesn’t get back on D because he’s bytching at refs, etc.

You can see where Bron is a tier above Luka in what each player does when their offense is shyt. The lakers have multiple recent wins with Bron scoring sub-20 points. He’s just far more gifted in his ability to impact winning without getting buckets.
