Luka could be annoying but his only flaw wrt offensive inefficiency was taking some bad 3 pt shots. Else he's one of the most efficient players around. Great post game, great mid range, even great on catch and shoot 3s.
Honestly, I like the type of player that Flagg is more. I'm not a fan of the one man hero show where 4 others have to wait around, even though Luka is generational (and I don't throw that tag loosely). My expectation of a ceiling for Flagg is a more motivated version of an Andrew Wiggins. If he can be that, he will be fine even if he is not generational. For now the issue is not that Luka is not here but that we don't have an above average PG or SG and so the loss of Luka stands out more. If Kyrie was healthy, this team would look so different.
