I'm not really a Twitter guy, but I'd be surprised if there are many people pointing the finger solely at Luka. This team has a lot of problems. Luka can certainly do more but it starts at the top with roster construction and coaching and extends to the bottom four guys who can't even get on the floor in a game like this.
Neither team had their top two guys. This game was about the rest of the roster and it proved what everyone has been saying all along. Memphis is just far better from roster spots 3 through 17.
On the bright side, I'd take Luka + KP over Morant + Brooks ... but if I'm being honest, the margin isn't huge.
