If it's so easy to get a positive DRPM, then why can't Luka do it to save his life?

Watch the games. His defense is a problem. He'd better learn how to do it. The Mavs won't contend until he does. Dirk gets bashed, but he was an at least average defender around the time the Mavs won the championship.

 He's 20 years old one more time. When he's 23, then you can start asking for defense, because he definitely has it in him, the guy just doesn't want to get in foul trouble, because if he did, you guys would lose it.
"Oh, why isn't he on the floor"? "He's on the bench in foul trouble where we need him".
I mean, you know the league has no filter when it comes to young guys playing defense. If he even breathes on someone, a foul will be call. But once he turns 23 or 24 and starts playing defense, they won't be as brutal because by then he'll be well established. And obviously the guy CAN play defense if you've watched games, you'll see him every now and then lock down on someone.
