Dude is a walking triple double no doubt but imagine if Luka dedicated himself to stay in shape and value possessions early in games.

Also, I think he should cut back on 3's and stay aggressive more often on mid range shots and post up's.

Can't disagree with any of that. A lot of his threes he's forced into due to shot clock, etc., but he definitely takes too many ill-advised ones. The sloppy TO's are vexing as well, but to some extent, you have to take the good with the bad with his passing. One thing that has been great lately is his defense. He leads the Mavs in Defensive Win Shares since he came back.
