Luka is going to be a Hall of Famer even if he shoots 30% from 3 for the rest of his career, but it's going to be waste of opportunity if he doesn't work on his 3-game. A top 10 player of all time is within reach, but the way he is right now, he is closer to Westbrook than he is with Dirk.
He should quit playing around with all those trick shots and half court attempts from practice. He needs his 3 ball to be automatic. It's been 3 years now and he's back to being chucker with no shot from 3. Why can't he do it? Jose Calderon was terrible in his first year, Jason Kidd was too, but they have improved. Luka is back to where he started.
Somebody from the Mavs or wherever should push Luka.
Dirk had Avery "trade-Dirk-because-he-isn't-Duncan" Johnson, and at a certain extent, he had Don Nelson to thank for, exposing his weakness in 07. In 2 years, Dirk has improved his game the way a self respecting franchise player should.
Luka on the other hand.. just needs to lose some weight and shoot from 3 better.
Dirk would have done this in less than 3 months.
