People shitting on Luka around here are hilariously misguided. Imagine this team without him for 2 seconds before posting a bunch of nonsense.

Hes shooting 39% and 16% from 3 the last two games. Its okay to criticize him, especially when he hasnt figured out that he doesnt need to do it all, that will rarely result in a playoff win. 3/18 from 3.

That doesnt mean the others cant be criticized at the same time. But they arent superstars.

The guy is playing through a calf injury and Reggie a rib injury while playing ridiculous minutes with little rest. Luka looked completely gassed even in game 4. If you want to argue his conditioning, fine, but otherwise, he is playing hobbled.

And Kidd is reaching Mike D'Antoni territory with the minutes crunch. Gotta find a way to give them a few minutes rest.
