Biggest difference, the Hawks look poised for a better future thanks to the other guys they have on that team. Huerter has looked great for a rookie and Collins looks like a future allstar. They get another good pick in this draft and Young is going to have a plethora of teammates to pass to. His assist numbers are going to be Stockton like. This also is going to give him more space to operate and get up his shot when so many around him are such proficient scorers.
Luka has seen this before. He knows what to expect from guys much older than him using tricks to beat up on the inexperienced. This is invaluable and has certainly helped him come into the NBA and produce right away. His peak might not be much higher than it is now. It's hard to speculate since there have been few people come from overseas and put up the numbers he has put up. Dallas, as a team, looks a little lost. Not sure whether to tank this season or hop on the treadmill to mediocrity. I'm not even sure what the 2nd best asset is on that team and where they go from here. Luka could end up trapped on a team that has no ability to improve and thus suffer as a result.
And... about the defense. Have you not been watching the Warriors and Harden? Defense is a thing of the past. Just outscore your opponents, the refs will do the rest.
