A LEGIT, LEGIT, LEGIT concern that gets lots of play on this board. I do NOT disagree with it. This whole talking point of mine is not a rejection of that.
I just think the "internal" concern of Luka himself is just as legit based on what we have seen about stamina, conditioning, shooting consistency, half-assing, etc.
I think Luka's career can be sabotaged "externally" by the Mavs organization and random crap....OR "internally" sabotaged by Luka's own work ethic, diet, preparation, focus, etc. I just don't think EITHER are a "given" right now.
