This guy is so extremely annoying If I remember correctly, there were regular season stats about Luka being an actual good primary defender in the regular season. He is worse in rotations and help defense. Although again, I think Mavs regular season defense scheme is designed in a way that Luka doesn't rotate to save his energy. Which is of course very difficult to execute and probably a reason why defense falls apart many times.
