Luka's angles are so good, they are not English, we are going to call it Slovenian.

Absolutely ridiculous we were up by like 10 points with 2 minutes left and Luka decides to go beast mode and hit 4 consecutive 3s :facepalm

Yeah the crazy thing is the Nets made a slew of threes as well in the last few minutes, probably shot like 60% in that time, it just wasnt enough because Luka shot 100% :oldlol:

Wild.

All skill does is increase your odds at getting lucky.

If it was some shitty guy who tossed that up I would say it was luck

When a guy like Luka does it there’s way more skill into it then it appears

he might have a better chance at making than most but it's still a prayer. Did he call bank? I know what a prayer is. The Bum lives and dies by them. Mostly dies

I’m not sure if he meant to bank it or not, but your average nba player hits that shot in one out of 50 attempts, maybe 100. Luka probably makes 1 in 10.

He's shooting 27% from 3 but he's making that 10% of the time? Duncan probably the last player to use the backboard intentionally so I doubt he tried to bank it

whatever the numbers are, I don’t think you can argue that Luka hits those shots at a much higher clip than most players in the league

A good example would be if I was playing golf and I hit a hole in one eagle. That would be pure luck as I’m not good at golf. If Tiger Woods makes the same shot it’s not merely pure luck. He’s just really ****ing good.

Eh, he put english and on it, got set his feet into it, and had an actual look at the rim with his eyes.

If he didn't look at the rim, had his feet out of place, and just threw it with no guidance, then it's luck.

If he has bank hook touch at that distance, his post up game can end up being so nasty if he really focuses on it.

He went 9/14 from 3 but I think his post-up game is more unique and deadlier than any amount of shooting regardless of how hot he is.

Why didn't Ben Simmons stop him?

Damn, just imagine if the league still had the wnba three-point line nowadays. It'd be a piece of cake.
