No clue. I feel like when he and KD were together they kinda switched roles on and off. But KD isnāt as ball dominant as Luka. Lukeās much closer to the Harden/Young school of play.
NBA twitter is such a double edged sword but when it hits, it hits.

Dallas buying low. Donāt think it will work but Dallas is screwed from a roster construction standpoint, so I guess they figure, hey why not.

True after they lost Brunson there wasnāt much the Mavs could do. Also have heard the market for players who want to play with Luka is smaller than you think.

Will play my favorite contrarian role and point out that Kyrie took the Nets to an eastern conference finals and nearly won. It kinda worked and then life got wacky and Kyrie got wackier, but the Nets donāt go to a whole lot of eastern conference finalsā¦ (except for the magical Jason Kidd, Richard Jefferson, Kenyon Martin era, when they were the perennial sacrificial lamb to the western conference)

Oh crud- this is wrong. Lost in semis. Not finals . But probably best team v Giannis

Lost in 7, in OT, to the eventual champs. One stray bounce and we could have a completely different narrative.

For those wondering how the foul got missed on Reeceās dunk?
Jamie Luckie was in a position as the lead official to be the one that was supposed to get to the baseline and be in position to see the playā¦ didnāt even get to the 3 point lineā¦ Look how far back he is. There is no way anyone older than 50 who is 40 lbs. overweight should be allowed to officiate Mens D1 basketballā¦ Look at the 2nd pic as wellā¦ Roger Ayers was the Center official - meaning he started 14 feet behind Luckie at the start of the play and had already passed Luckie in transition.

Also watch Luckie trying to run to get in position ā¦ ārunningā is a very loose term here ā¦

So refs must love UVa games. Significantly less miles and sprinting, right?
Iāve heard about 3 miles of running per night for refs. Must be like 2.5 or so for our games.

But it feels like 6 miles because it is so slow and boring.

If he were just starting out in high school officiatingā¦ he wouldnāt get any higher games than Girls JV as he would be deemed unable to keep up to give a quality effort ā¦ and Iām being serious.
