Luka with one of the worst defensive plays in NBA history

[hold this L]

Game tied, last possession, and bro is thinking about dinner already. His coach is literally yelling at him as he points to defend his man, and uhhh..

Dallas are 5-7

This is exactly the sort of brutal embarrassment dude chubby ass needs to motivate him to care more, and become a better version of himself.

[90sgoat]

Fat lazy man doing fat lazy things.

[Kblaze8855]

[RRR3]

Otto Porter vibes but was worse because it was in the clutch

He might have thought they needed to double the guy in the corner off the ball...well, now no one can say that I'm a Doncic hater, I just posted something ridiculous trying to defend him. But a little seriously, that could have been his thought process. Either that or he just didn't care, and I wouldn't say he doesn't care.

He had the corner guy, teammate ****ed up going out upfront.

You aren't guarding a corner three from the top of the free throw line. everyone screws up sometimes.

Mark my word, Luka is becoming the most hated man in the NBA. I'm glad that shit happened to him. Cocky m'fer deserves every negative criticism he gets.

[tontoz]

That is pretty bad. :facepalm

I am listening to a podcast right now analyzing the Ws vs Mavs game and several plays are pointed out where Luka was completely disinterested in defense. If he hasn't changed by now he probably never will.

The problem for him is that his shit definitely does rub off on his teammates. Doesn't matter if you play rec league or NBA, if your offensive star who hogs the ball doesn't play defense, then you're not going to be busting your ass on defense. If you want to be offense only, you need the ball out of your hands like AI or Reggie Miller.

He can and does play defense in the playoffs, he clearly just wants to in the first half of the season, because he is out of shape or the season is too long for him.

How are the mavs going to repeat as west champs if he's prone to becoming like this at times?

I think it worked last year

Not sure what he was doing, but I see this almost every game at one point or another. The only difference here is it was the game winner.
