    Sochan and San Antonio screwed polish national team again. They came up with another bs injury and voila, case closed. I guess Luka is better than that though, respect.

    Yes if they want to make sure there's no chemistry at all and Poland loses all games by an average of ar least 20 pts. I respect what Gortat accomplished, but on the national team he was a walking DISASTER.

    There’s always risk of injury, but there’s no way we can expect him to not play in these games. These guys play constantly, if he’s not playing here he’ll he playing with other NBA players in team facilities, etc.. Injuries happen in those, they can happen in training camp, it’s just a part of the game, Cousins hurt his knee in a pickup game the year he signed with us for example. Glad it’s not serious, and I expect him to continue playing if he’s able, that’s just part of having a star like Luka.

    the spin turnaround and the inbounds pass are probably the highlights.

    what's funny to me about luka is that he basically looks the same no matter who he plays. like pretty much every play he makes here against a pretty bad team is a play he can make against the nba's best teams, too. i think it's just because his game isn't really predicated on an athletic advantage. it's almost all size and skill.

    Still don't see the stepback 3's - those make him unguardable.

    It's England so takes it with a grain of salt but he definitely looks more light on his feet and wasn't laboring like most of last season

    He tried even couple times,but didn't make it
    So that's why it's not in highlights

    Those step back 3s rely on fat jiggle bounce from his tummy
