Is skinny Luka this season playing any different than chubby Luka last season?
Watching Luka's highlights so far, it looks like he plays the same as last season. Lots of stepback 3's and just hitting lots of them even with defenders all over him. I haven't seen much driving to the hole or dunks so far. Lots of fans were hoping with the weight loss he'd incorporate driving back into his game like in the bubble season. Has Luka played any differently this season with the weight loss?
But if he can average 40 efficiently chucking up 3's I don't see the need for him to risk injury driving to the hole. It's like older MJ who mainly relied on the fadeaway in his later years instead of slashing to the hole like his younger years.
