They estimate Luka has a defensive win-shares of 1.0 which ties him for fourth-best in the league. So I guess he must play REALLY hard that 30% of the time. Like All World Defender hard.
And the reason that I deleted the comment (within a couple of minutes of posting - great catch LOL) is that I didn't want to contribute to the general negativity of this board. I literally can only read a few threads that aren't destroyed by the negative vibe of this board.
Win shares are boxscore based. Meaning that high DREB, STL and BLK numbers translate to high DWS. But as stated by others. Boxscore numbers aren´t the best way to evaluate defense. Otherwise Andre Drummond would be regarded as one of the best defenders of all time. His DWS and DBM numbers are among the greatest of all time.
