    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.

    He does complain a lot, but he also is getting fouled, like not calling this is wild, he was fouled like 3 times here

    Like others have said....when Luka hit a few of those step back 3's in the 1st half, and I think he had another one in the 2nd half...that's when it hit me that we have HIM.

    I know we've had LeBron for a while now...but seeing Luka hit a few of those shots...I don't think we've had someone like that since...Kobe? Just someone that can hit absolutely BACK BREAKING 3's on your head and there's NOTHING you can do to stop it?

    I think seeing the Nuggets body language...they actually looked...defeated? They were almost shocked I think that this is our team now.

    As much as I love AD...having Luka against the Nuggets was an unknown variable and our floor is raised and now it's no longer a foregone conclusion that we lose a playoff series against the Nuggets should we get matched up.
