    It’s weird yeah, since that time he hasn’t been playing with that same confidence and fun he usually does. He’s seemed elsewhere at times mentally, a bit disconnected, if it’s possible to tell that on the court I guess. At least he finally seems to be building some chemistry with LeBron now, they had seemed for a long time like they never even speak or something.

    Some players can’t perform when they lose their “go to” part of their game.

    Something is up with Luka, yet he keeps finding ways to drop 30+ point games.

    dude is a baller

    I know Wilt played for us at the end of his career, but that’s still pretty crazy

    He is. The All-Star break will be good for him.

    Luka and Lebron spammed pick and roll for much of the 4th quarter. Keep doing that until teams adjust.

    Imagine this dude healthy again with a healthy Austin.
    We saw it throughout the first part of the season and it was unbelievable what they were doing.
    If he feels like he needs to sit, he will sit. He knows how much he can take better than anyone else.
    Let’s hope Austin can come back a little sooner than expected so Luka can rest a bit. That being said, I fear what this team would look like with only LeBron out there representing our “big three.”

    Well, he just hurt his neck, but seems to be back... still holding his neck. That was a hard charge he took there.

    Edit: came back, still scored 30.
