Is Luka not as impactful as his stats suggest? (alien.top)

This year

Kyrie and Luka on - +2.95 Net rtg (286min)

Luka on Kyrie off - -3.5 Net rtg (274min)

Kyrie on Luka off - +5.6 (142min)

Last season in the small sample size, +7.64 with Kyrie on and Luka off (319min) +1.94 with just Luka (1800min)

Luka has been averaging 30-7-7 but his impact does not seem nearly as high as Jokic who is averaging similar numbers, now obviously Jokic is much better but the point is the numbers are similar yet the impact is not close at all. Now this could be because his defense is dreadful but either way there is something missing

Also Livelys impact has been huge with - +5.67 Net rtg (337min) with him on the floor and -2.11 Net rtg (431min) with him off

bones for luka

it is a great deal isnt it?

Please, we both know Mavs would ask for Bones AND Mann and clippers would end up backing out of the deal

NBA wouldn’t allow Luka to the clippers cus that means they cant have the annual Luka vs Clippers playoff series

That team would go undefeated when NBA starts allowing 5 balls to be in play at once
