In the three games against GSW....
-30 w/ Luka, +5 w/o Luka
-12 w/ Luka, +3 w/o Luka
-19 w/ Luka, +10 w/o Luka
TOTAL: -61 w/ Luka, +18 w/o Luka
Do the teammates bear some responsibility? Of COURSE! But to act like Luka just "needs better teammates" fails to account for his role and play in this three game embarrassment.
Seems a little overly simplistic. Curry and some of the other GS starters are usually off the court when Luka sits.
