  1. Here are my obervations/thoughts on Luka and his free-throw shooting woes: he's bored to death of them. Luka is a flashy, trickshot-kinda guy and free-throws are the absolute last thing he would want to be doing – yes, even in a game.

    So I have two "solutions":

    1) Change up his form to something more interesting, unusual, and more resembling a trickshot: underhanded "granny" style

    2) …and this one is a little more innovative/out there, but stick with me….don't even TRY to make the 2nd free-throw. Instead, Luka only will only attempt to send the ball off the rim to himself or to a teammate, a-la his crazy play to send the game to overtime vs. the Knicks (I think it was the Knicks). He has such great ball control that I think this would be more of a net positive than him actually trying to make his 2nd shot. Not even joking.

  2. Lol I swear Slovenia sounds like the Mavs just on a different stage

  3. He needs to line his feet up perpendicular to the backboard, instead of slanted sideways. He needs to start with the ball higher, rather than swinging it up from below his waist (left over from his junior high days). His pre-shot routines needs to be more focused and emphatic. The release needs to be directly in front of his body, rather than launched from over his head (nobody is guarding him). What he really needs is Steve Alford, who could teach him all of this in 30 minutes.

  4. Thanks for covering this šŸ‘Yeah Čančar is probably done for the season šŸ˜„

  5. Luka was spectacular. It all seemed effortless for him. In shape – great elevation on the threes – again effortlessly for him.

  6. hey nick love ur show. u should reach out to "we talk mavs", the glo yard bois. they are really good at what they do.

  7. He will never be a top FT shooter , but I recommend a form change , either more or less legs in his shirt with maybe an arc adjustment

  8. Luka should just perfect that Rick Barry shotā€¦ gon head start practicing it

  9. We can play only one of Tobey and Morgan sadly. Would need both now that we lost (after Edo Murić) Čančar.

  10. Regarding free throws, seriously, between Dirk and Kyrie he has two of the best in the world. Maybe he just needs to somehow make them help him.

  11. Mike Tobey was back,play some min. but is litlle rusty. Nex game is suterday vs USA. Luka vs Brunson.
    If SLO win vs USA , preparetion/friendly game we dont care.
    Just the fact that US decides to play vs Slvenia a small country,with having big ā¤and one great Luka.

  12. We won't get far with this coach unfortunately. His motto is basically the definition of insanity – doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. He runs the same plays from 6 years ago, which all the teams have read by now. He has no authority at all and basically has no defensive schemes. A lot of fans here in Slovenia already demanded his resignation after the debacle against Poland last year in the Eurobasket, but the corrupt president of basketball federation covers for him and makes the most ridiculous statements such as: "Sekulić is an excellent coach". This was right after we were eliminated by Poland btw. We want both of them gone.

    Our main two wings (Čančar and Murić) are out with a torn ACL and Zoran is just lost out there. Other than Tobey, we have no real center, we have no one at the 4, but we do have a plethora of guards that we ironically don't need because of Luka. The backup to Luka should be Samar – he's more of a creator. Prepelič is just a streaky shooting guard. I expect a thorough thrashing of our team in the next two games, Spain and U.S. will demolish us.

  13. oh, if morgan would have made that basket

    it would be a wow pass action by doncic

  14. That boy LUK DIFFERENT šŸ”„šŸ”„ Iā€™m a die hard KOBE FAN & LUK easy my fav person to watch in the league

  15. your doing real great with slovenian (and all ex-yugoslavian names and surenames).

    respect snd thanks!

    thus i invite you to check the pronunciation of ā€œPREPELIČā€ šŸ¤“

    best wishes šŸ€
