What I get from this is his life is basketball. He was a pro when he was a teen. Everything just comes natural because almost his whole life is basketball. He just plays, practices, gets better and stuff just happens. Like the 73 pt. game. This is why he says it’s not easy. Because he worked for literally his whole life, to become this monster of a basketball player.

DAL decided to tank, and a born winner like Luka who has always played at top level fighting for championships all the time in europe is very hard to answer questions related to that without exposing his front office antics.
Goats don’t complain every single trip down the court. Goats actually play defense and often do it good or get better at it. Luca is an absolute joke unless it’s offense and then again all the dude does is complain when he doesn’t have something go his way. in terms of straight up basketball, the dude is really low in terms of respect on my scale.
@@kylebushnell2601 Still talking about Defense ? I bet you don't even watch NBA games, otherwise you would know you can't call him a bad defender anymore lmao
Im a huge luka fan, but this "beef" is so overblown to me, i get when they are playing to say that stuff but when he says they're cool everybody needs to just chill
Suns fan here I love there relationship on how much they elevate each others game and how this is like the only real rivalry in the NBA. It’s also good for the NBA since the old guys are leaving soon. Besides the “son”trolling from both fan bases hopefully there’s more to come from to young stars story and career.
Luka’s absolutely right about the injuries. A lot of mavs fans think the team stinks but they have barely been healthy all season and with the new additions they could really be a threat, still early to tell but this mavs team when healthy could be a legitimate contender, maybe not this season but next season for sure.
Primarily the injuries and then the inconsistent play from the other players. The Mavs never had a definitive third best player on the team that would have stepped up when Kyrie was down (for about half of the season). Some nights its THJ, DJJ, Exum, Lively, Grant or Josh. Players get good stretches of games then suddenly get injured or fall back into a slump.
its crazy how things like that play out 😂 he could have said the same thing and lost but nobody would have said anything but the fact they came back and Luka destroyed them in the decider just makes it even more insane
Fortunatelly Luka has the perfect balance: A killer instinct when it comes to his competitive nature inside the court, enjoy it for what it is while understanding that life is much more than just that!
Mavs are a beyond terrible team for young guards to develop. You have jkidd coaching and ball always in lukas hands. He would nowhere be the player he is today.
"What do you tell YOURSELF" keyword here - talking to yourself is the first sign that you are going crazy. His answer sums up why hes able to play basketball so well "i just play." When you go zenmode and just focus on the one thing you are supposed to be doing everyone around you will start to think what you are doing is magical.
@@officialtbhoops lmao thinking and talking to yourself are different things. i talk to myself all the time too- cuz im a lil crazy. But when you are in a clear state of mind their is no inner dialogue needed- What you think is what you feel . There is "one voice" so to speak. No inner dialogue between a fractured self. Most ppl oscillate between states of consciousness and unconsciousness- when you are fully conscious their is one voice so to speak. Cheers!
That game 7 beatdown with Book choking, one of the most humiliating playoff moments in history, and the Suns org. writing that apology letter after... Nah, I think it's still quite fat.
@@DreamyWoIfnot really… cause Luka got destroyed by curry next round even worse… wait it’s been 2 years and Luka still hasn’t done anything since except lose to Booker 👀
@@Grind2Excellence If there was a poll for the most embarassing moment of the playoffs that year, perhaps even of the last 10 years, the Suns choke would win overwhelmingly; no. 1 seed that was in the finals the previous year, in their most important game of the season so far, on their home court, trailing for as much as 50 at one point, with Book playing like absolute crap after trash-talking in the games before, with the team leading 2:0 and the fans chanting "Suns in 4". Compare that to the over-achieving Mavs losing in the conference finals against the eventual champs whose core players are the most playoff experienced squad in the past decade. Booker having a better regular season record against Luka won't mean jack after their retirement if he cannot capitalize it in the playoffs by beating him or winning more rings. Not to mention he has to go against the fact that Luka has been a better individual player so far.
Booker- Western conference champions, NBA finals Butler- 2 Eastern Conference champions,2 NBA finals Using Logic like this doesn’t help your case JUNIOR!
It took booker cp3, ayton, kd and an overall much better squad to have a winning record against luka and unhealthy kyrie and porzingis, and YET in the most important games luka schooled booker. Oh and btw, Lukas much younger yet hes the one that seems to be more experienced n calm.
It's called passion J.J. Winners, or those who want IT, have the drive to try to win. It's killer instinct. It's desire. It's glory and gain and memories and it's current and it's great!
Luka and Booker have a competitive rivalry going on but it might be extreme to think that each “Hate Each Other” it’s a good media narrative but they’re certainly tension and bad blood but it’s not personal. Luka beat him in the playoffs but the last 2-3 regular season matchups Booker has outplayed Luka. I’m a Luka fan and they’re both generational talents but I think the media is going overboard. Let me know what ya think!
You can see JJ is just itching for something dramatic and wants to stir things up, especially now that he’s a media guy. Luka just wants to ball and chill.
