NBA is in trouble in Luka wins a ring

[StrongLurk]

Dude is already a legit all-time great talent and has been a playoff performer since his first playoff game. This dude getting the monkey off his back with a ring will only further increase his confidence and aggression. A ring will also place him firmly as the favorite for the MVP race next year since it is a narrative boost.

He and Jokic will simply own the West in this scenario.

[Real Men Wear Green]

I'm expecting/hoping that the Celtics attack him far more than Minnie does. His man needs to be treated like the franchise player. It will wear him down more and should also lead to good offense.

In the long run maybe, I could also see him coming back the year after a title very out of shape, getting injured, take his time recovering etc.

He feels like a guy who’s gonna drink it in a little bit if he wins, not jump right back to the grind. Wouldnt be surprised if he coasts for a year after winning the trophy.

first.....

lets wait and see if Luka can own his arthritic knee the whole series.

some how, I feel, Luka aint surviving all 6-7 games of finals.

Lebron is winning 7 rings and Wembenyama 8 rings. Luka will play second fiddle to these two.
