    I never thought this before, but purple is slimming. Makes ya look thinner than you are. At least for that guy wearing 77 it did. Watch what a fat azz he looks like in gold. Then again, he'll drop 40.

    Not pounds. Points.

    His short shots 8 to 2 feet from the rim, still look off.

    The Big Q for him will last at least through the end of this season: will he be able to get into his best shape and avoid those nagging calf injuries? Is he too set in his ways already and nothing our 40 year old Action Figure says can sway Luka's slob ethic? I mean, the guy's insanely great, but he's too young to be missing so many games due to calf issues that seem to be strongly correlated with his weight.

    I caught myself smiling mid game when Luka hit those long 3s. That 1st one in the 1st quarter from waaaay beyond the line, I lost it. It's when it hit me we got this guy. He can shoot wherever he wants, whenever he wants and most times he'll make them.
    Hell of a ride we have ahead

    I said it when he was in Dallas, too. His gripes are legitimate. Just like lebron’s.

    both need to wait until breaks to complain, but their responses are understandable.

    Look, if we play that type of defense in the playoffs I'm repenting.

    Also...Chubby Balkan is an amazing name for a SKA band. Emir Kusturica style...

    This is what I'm going to call him from now on.

    Chubbs for short.
