HALLELUKA: Luka Clinches All-NBA 1st team. 4th in 5 years

[fifteenth]

I could watch that video over and over and over again

[ItsGoTime]

As some have pointed out, he may not be run-and-jump/lateral quickness athletic, but his core strength is among the highest percentile among NBA players - the stopping on a dime, balance, body control driving to the hoop....

Edit: posted this before watching the above video. Yeah, what he said.

I think he has amazing body control and balance, but isn't it kindof a bit easier to "stop on a dime" and "decelerate" when you don't accelerate faster? Harden does much of the same thing Luka does BTW. I think some of the "decelerate' things have more to do with his handles and getting the defender off balance or trying hard to recover, which allows him to get to where he wants to go.

Love seeing Hardens reaction at 3:33 after Luka scored, down with the shoulders: "Give me a break, I cant believe this".

When someone complains about Barea just remember we have to keep Luka happy...Barea is his best friend and when Barea got hurt Luka still did his half of their pregame routine last season...

Most of the Barea complainers will be quiet as long as he doesn't play much.

oh dang, I know I read that once upon a time

[SportPsychMav]

For his shoe deal I have read that Nike can match any offer he takes for 180 days. 

He will not sign a deal this season, unless he wants to stay with nike.

His post was about you and supposedly your facebook profile and your physical appearance + a threat to uncover other users. I'm not sure how serious this was though.
