What did the rest of the team shoot against the Celtics? Luka is 2nd all time, out of every player who’s ever played over decades of basketball, in playoff scoring, and he can still lead all current players in rebounding, assists, minutes, and even steals. We’ll never see his like again.
They were in 5th place because he wasn't ready to start the season, basically.
He led the NBA in pretty much every statistical playoff category because the entire offense was just having him on-ball, 24/7.
I get it. You don't think there was anything wrong with his last playoff run, and you don't think he should've been traded. I'm telling you, I legitimately (as in, not to make an argument - this is how I felt, PRIOR to the trade) didn't like where his game, his body, his attitude or his career were headed. If you think that makes me dumb, so be it. I respect your opinion, friend.
