I rather see him playing fresh in the Playoffs instead of trying to get MVP which goes to Jokic in the end anyway

Again Luka does what Luka wants. After last seasons S-Show I don't believe anyone in the Mavs FO was going to tell Luka he's not playing. If Luka wants to play Luka's going to play. You should know this by now. lol

How do you know Luka insisted on playing?
And I said Starters, plural. Luka is one player, there was no reason for Kyrie, PJ, Gaff, and DJJ to play. Kidd is the coach and needs to do whats in the best interest of the team. I understand if Ky's one million incentive was in play for a 50 win season, of course he would want to play and we cant fault him, but others deserve rest. Heck DJJ was hobbling within the first few minutes in pain, Kidd didnt bother to call a timeout

Why are you complaining? I trust the Mavs Org a lot more then I do you. If the players want to play let them play. And Are you really asking if Luka insisted on playing? Luka always wants to play if you don't know that. Are you really a Mavs fan. Every single Mavs fan knows Luka loves to play and not miss games.

Luka cares more about winning than playing im sure, and smart move would be to rest when playoffs are essentially locked in. I'm happy if we have guys that want to play every night, after years of Parsons and KP its a welcome change. But I also remember 2 years ago Luka playing in meaningless game and getting injured where he missed a few playoff games. Not worth it.
