    Luka starting the season with 200 points in his first 5 games, just under a couple of Wilt Chamberlain seasons, looking slim and athletic, beating Wemby and S.A. This is not just a stellar start to the season this is a FELONY. I think he is trying to get Nico KILLED for trading him. So much fun to watch our flashy, ultra competitive assassin.

    That trade was so unlikely and so bad it is still almost hard to believe it happened. Keep thinking I'm in some AI bubble that will eventually burst.

    yeah, i was among the few who thought luka might end up here somehow, but i never imagined the timing/circumstances (i thought it was going to be next summer, if at all). it's absolutely wild. it does feel fake. and we might not get a ring from it, but we'll get several years of better ball than we were going to see by a longshot. this is an all-time great-level player, imo, and i said it before he came here so it's not just homerism.
