Eventually Luka is gonna need to win. People like to put him among jokic and giannis as the top 3 players in the nba, yet both those guys steamrolled their way to a title. I feel like luka is closer to the next tier of players than he is to those two unless he can dominate his way to a title
Indeed, he does eventually need to win. He's only 24 and still has a good number of years on his contract. The fact that we're winning games now is great which means with some upgrades he will have a legit chance. I just don't see us as a true contender this year (but definitely a possible deep playoff run), our defense is still too Swiss cheese to compete actively with teams like Denver and the Celtics.
Not sold on denver being the runaway west champs this year. Their depth looks worse than last year. I think every western series is gonna be a toss up this year
