Luka with one of the worst defensive plays in NBA history

That is pretty bad.

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.

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?

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.
