It could be worse. You could support the Kings.

I'd put Luka on par with but not necessarily better than 22 year old LeBron. That Cavs roster would've been in contention for worst team in the league without him and had no business getting to the finals. But LeBron was getting it done with otherworldly athleticism, while Luka's raw feel and skill level are what you would expect of a seasoned basketball savant with 7-10 years in the NBA under their belt. He basically looks like he's playing mycareer in 2k against the clippers. He gets wherever he wants to, and hits shots from wherever he wants in the face of every defender they throw at him.


I’m taking Luka’s floor game over Lebron’s athleticism at the same age, although in fairness to Lebron he had a great IQ also. Just Luka’s touch and killer instinct is insane. He’s a poor shooter from 3 this year percentage wise, but he catches fire and can’t be stopped. Luka is doing it without being a once in a generation physical force too, which is more impressive to me.


Mostly because he had a ridiculously poor stretch at the beginning of season but for the last 3/4 months, his 3pt shooting has been fairly great

Actually his 3pt shooting was marginally worse post-ASB than pre-ASB. He was was just godawful to start the year so it took a while for his percentages to converge to his natural point around 35%, a little below league average (but he gets leeway for the number of iso threes).
