Porzingus (the unicorn) is forced to be a spot up shooter in the Luka System
Makes me so angry to watch a one of a kind player forced to play "Luka Ball".I dont see a lot of free agents joining this team anytime soon.
1 Point at the half .Damn shame....Ya hate to see it

Porzingis has been a spot up shooter anywhere, cause he hasn't gone on the Bran/Giannis juice yet, so he is too skinny.

Porzingis posts up all the time and creates his own shots.

Porzingis was always a spot up shooter, shooting is the only thing he's good at, and maybe shot blocking, but he is not elite defender tho. He's too soft to play in the post, can't rebound, not much of a passer, I mean the guy is 7'3 and shoots like a shooting guard, but I never got why is he so hyped up.

It must be Luka's fault he is 1-9.

Re: Porzingus (the unicorn) is forced to be a spot up shooter in the Luka System
Ive always said for a few years now
This stat padding no defense all flop ball pounding is a product of that Euro ball influence that these Euros are bringing into our game
We need to go back to that old school hard nosed AAU ball where brotherhood and sacrificing efficiency for the sake of the team was the staples of the game
Maybe these young Euro players need to get schooled in the American inner cities on how to play basketball the right way from an early age, instead they grow up only concerned about making behind the back passes and euro step travels like Ginobili, Rudy Fernandez, Bogdanovic, etc.
Look at guys like Iverson, LeBron, McGrady, Melo, KD... All grew up in inner city projects and all never had any issues getting along with their peers on a league wide level whereas these Euro stars tend to distance themselves and usually fail to attract other talent to play with because of their diva attitudes and me first playing styles

No impact Euro ball destroying the NBA's rich influential game
Euroleauge MVP's have never made a dent in the pros
Keep that cookie cutter feather soft style out of my league

Certainly not much of this could be put on Luka, but this is a problem for the Mavs.

Yes, this may not be an optimal fit.

Does Luka start at PG, or is he still starting at a wing position, and then becoming a 2nd PG on the floor like he was alongside Dennis Smith?
When he was a 2nd PG, it was classic Lebron-ball, and resulted in a low-assist team like all 2-PG lineups:
As wings that play PG, guys like Lebron, Luka, and Harden give their teams a 2nd player on the floor with a PG time of possession (hold-time).. They essentially create a 2-PG lineup, which gives teammates less hold-time and assists then they get in traditional 1-PG lineups.. Lower teammate assists result in low TEAM assists and a low ball-movement brand that struggles on the championship level, aka 3/9 with team-hopping, 0-fer without..
Indeed, Lebron/Luka-ball (2 PG lineups) is inherently suboptimal.. And even 1-PG lineups don't win, where the PG dominates the team's distribution of offensive win share (cp3-ball, nash-ball, westbrook-ball, wall-ball, etc)

These guys are only 24 and 20 years old, and just started playing together.
Expectations of perfect chemistry and immediate, significant success (Justin) were clearly wishful thinking.
If you know basketball, you could see there's clearly a learning curve and some gaps still to fill on the roster. Even Dirk needed a Tyson Chandler to get over the hump.
Nobody ever wants to have patience in sports but sometimes that's the main thing missing in a plan. Let these boys get knocked around a bit and gain some experience. If you're staking your entire self esteem on Luka Doncic's basketball results every night (Justin), maybe unplug for a bit and catch a breath of fresh air outside.
But I agree it's funny when people criticize Lebron's game and then slob Luka, completely blind to the fact his style is a carbon copy of Bron but with more physical limitation (Justin).
