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

[Razzmatazz_Hopskidillydoo]

I am not very critical of Luka's defense for these reasons:

• He has limits, not quick enough against most guards.
  
• He shoulders a lot in offense, asking him to play top level defense will burn him out before half time.
  

What needs improvement:

• Arguing with the refs -- it's already bad enough Luka jogs on transition D, arguing with the refs adds to the problem and this needs to be addressed.
  

What the MBT should do:

• Obviously someone has to share the load in offense, if you want Doncic to have more energy for D, his load in offense should be less. Feature Wood more in offense not only in Luka lineups but specialy on non-Luka lineups. If SD can't be as good as partner for Wood in the pick and roll, find someone who can. And of course this leads to the lacking  playmaker/bahhandler.
  

Ideally the Mavs get a playmaker who can score some, can play off ball with Luka, can play the pick and roll with Wood, isn't totally inept on D. Once the Mavs get that player, I would think Luka's defense will also improve due to less load on the other end.
