Honestly this video makes me feel a lot better about this 3 game skid. The SAC and MIN games were very close, and even the Denver game got a little frisky near the end.
I love his point about using Luka and Kyrie screening and handing the ball off at the same time. Defenses will scramble to cover both, but both Luka and Kyrie can beat individual defense, so they'd have to commit to one side and by then it's bbq chicken.
Getting Luka downhill also seems to be the key. He's slower and needs to windup to explode like that. I think a good play would be to put Luka in the corner and have Kyrie come down and run a zipper fist screen play to get him downhill.
Something like this.
It also is a good trick play because it mimics Horns which is a pet action that Kidd likes to run. This gives Kyrie the ability to float from the corner up to the top of key after Luka catches it and attacks as well.
