About these four possessions that you keep posting whole day:
Picture 1: Luka made basket.
Picture 2: Pass to open Brunson for made 3PT.
Picture 3: Pass to open DFS, missed 3.
Picture 4: Luka stepback. But KP was in that post up position for like 0,2 seconds, not like he was standing there whole offense.

Of course they are. Because Luka creates his own shots, while KP doesn't. It's not like defenses are just leaving KP open whole day. The facts remain, KP is getting his shots and he is not really very efficient with them. I am so fed up with this...
KP started playing the season like crap. Bad on offense and bad on defense. He was rushing his shots and explaining it is because of his rotation minutes. Team obliges and changes their rotation minutes. There was no impact on team results. Than complaining about not being involved begins which culminated in the Houston game. Team is obviously involving KP much more since then, yet Mavs are 2-5 since than. So how much is it really justified for all KP-stans to complain? Team is constantly trying to adapt to KP yet fans keep producing conspiracy theories.
I really like KP, have stated that many times. But this Luka bashing is not really justified. KP has his own limitations and Luka is not the one guilty for that. As people shouldn't expect a 22 year old to be most mature guy, people should also accept KP as a player he is, with his limitations.
