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

The above stats are team stats in addition to being Luka stats.  Impacted by the scheme, spacing and whether others are scoring. In addition including a big coaching change as a main factor as well as department and income of new players. Reducing a million variables down to one player is difficult. Some of his best performances in NBA come in this season exemplified how well he orchestrated the GS and Bulls wins. This is a top 5 player on the planet. 

There is no doubt that slow start to season was due to him playing all summer long being completely exhausted after that and the playoffs with Clippers. Then the next challenge was the ankle injury. It was all clear in latest games, there is nothing wrong with his shape any longer when he gets some rest for that ankle. But is also clear to that that heavy load from summer and the ankel injury that he cant play at 100% every game in regular season and needs to be smart saving the best for the most important games.

Attack at the rims are difficult when players are not spaced as well. But be sure it will be playoff time and that he will not think about his ankle at that time and will attack the rim better than ever. You always revert to what works best when needed. That goes for the coach as well as Luka.
