    Default Luka just had the worst game of his career

    Absolutely atrocious game on both sides, turnovers, no defense, no points.

    It's really strange how Luka still has these meltdowns.

    Did any other all time great, except Lebron, have such complete dud of games where he pouts and gives up?

    He's a top 3-5 offensive player, but he's not someone I want to build around. His style of play, attitude and effort level in all facets of the game leaves a lot to be desired currently.

    These things are normal and he is still very young even though he's been playing basketball for a long time.

    Embiid is not in that conversation Not until he shows up in the playoffs. Luka is definitely better than him.

    Yep.

    I'll never forgive Luka for the white-on-white psychological violence he did to Zingis.

    Zingis in Boston living his best life now.

    He'll mellow out eventually, everyone does, but it's a bit sad that he's a late bloomer in emotional maturity.

    Maybe if he had a kid with his chubby slavic princess, then he'd mature faster.

    As of now, he legit seems like a big kid.

    can't imagine he becomes more likable. Not sure if there's been a player that has? I've liked a lot of guys when they were younger that became insufferable douche bags as they aged

    MJ for one was a selfish prick in his first several seasons.

    Charles Barkley.

    Kobe, probably.

    Hakeem.

    Lebron too. Much improved teammate after Miami.

    Many players needed to mature.

    He's become a pretty good team defender. He anticipates well and cuts off angles quickly. He's not built to be a lockdown man defender, but a lot of top players who are rarely play that role anyway because of foul trouble and fatigue.

    I dont see how you can look at what he did to Kawhi and PG in the playoffs, twice, as a 21/22 year old, then the number 1 seed Suns after that, and the start theyre off to this year, while never having what would be considered a great roster around him, and not see him as a top 3-5 player.

    The way he affects the game is somewhat unconventional and has its flaws, but I dont see more than 2-3 players I'd bet on to figure out a way to get his team a win than Luka.

    I liked Kobe when he was young. Didn't last

    That's really odd since when Kobe was young he was shooting like shit in the playoffs airballing LA to L's against Utah and as he got older his efficiency skyrocketed while his production doubled en route to a handful of rings. You sure do have a warped sense of reality.
