Kidd didn't have the power to carry a team. Hopefully, Luka is way, way better than Kidd when the dust clears. Kidd was not good enough to be the best player on a championship team (great as he was) specifically because he couldn't score when teams took away the passing game and forced him to be a scorer (which is what the league is attempting to do to Luka now).
Incidentally, this is pretty much how Dallas won in 2011, by treating Lebron exactly like teams are treating Luka right now.
No doubt in my mind that Luka will figure this out in time.
