Are these games, or replays, anywhere available in the US?

I think also it might be possible. It depends a lot on if there will be some good players around him. Thus it depends so much on who becomes the GM. A big and a forward that will know how to use that space inside that Luka creates. Shooters outside that are better than the ones we have now. Luka has made all of them look better, for instance maxi, DFS, THJ, their value has only increased significantly compared to their talent lavel and previous value. But all that aside, if you place elite shooters around Luka, this will be a different story, he may get the assist numbers you wrote. I think we saw some of that with Seth last season, it propelled our numbers to historic efficiency season offensively. Lukas passing game is improving all the time, and that is incredible to even think about. He will go down as top 5 player all time IMO. Even with a mediocore supporting cast he has now. With some good or elite players around him, this might become a dynasty.

Mavs need a pick and roll big...

Luka is so gosh darn fun to watch.

I agree we need a PNR player also...
Josh Green is a top 5 Mavs player...

KP as the screener doesn´t work. We just had the numbers a few days ago. Most switches in the league among players with 1000+ screens. As long as guards and wings can defend him in the paint that won´t change. Powell actually had the best +/- numbers among Mavs bigs in the playoffs but for some reason WCS was getting more minutes.

Gobert is a great PnR player but couldn't punish Clippers small ball.I think if the Mavs had a truly offensively skilled guy like Collins it could be different. I would at least expect him to punish small-ball better than KP or Gobert.

Can he punish Kawhi or George though?

He can get better, he's young enough, but I'd be leery giving him a boatload of $$

I hope Luka is at home watching these guys play at a high level for 50+ mins in the playoffs and realizes he needs to get his diet and conditioning in order. It is THE key to unlocking his potential.

It is THE key to unlocking his potential. To be fair. KD was done. Completly exhausted. Missed the last 3-4 shots. Couldn´t get to the rim. Short on the jumpshots.
