Luka needs to find his inner Jalen Brunson. He is not the two way player that Kobe, MJ or Lebron were. He needs a lot of pieces around him. But his salary uses too much of the salary cap. Feels like year are stuck.

He’s been anointed a generational player but he’s never made a play on defense the way true generational payers do. He is a taller version of Brunson as regards what he needs around hm. Problem is he does not have the same EQ as Brunson. He whines all day to the refs. He takes up way too much of the salary cap. This is why the box the Mavs saw they were in and they would have had to pay him more as his original team.
