I see some of you didn't quite know what a gem you're getting with Luka. His doings in Europe were just as spectacular as they are now in the NBA. It's mostly nothing we haven't seen before. He even played more carelessley in Europe, because not everything was in his hands as it is now. His plays were therefore sometimes much sassier.
And further more, Real Madrid is a basketball powerhouse in Europe. Like Lakers in NBA, if they haven't been out of conference finals for the past 15 years. Yep. That's how powerful Real Madrid is. A win is always expected. Every year Euroleague title is a goal, not a dream. And Luka carried their team at 18 years old.

And In Europe sport enthusiasts area different breed than in the States. You don't switch teams you root for, in soccer people have fights and riots all the time. It's not just about having an evening off and a bit of fun, it's real rivalry.
If judges would judge like they do in NBA, they would have special units escorts when exiting the stadiums. That's how hard core sports are over here in Europe.

So yeah, Luka is pretty amazing.
