Luka is averaging 30 points per game among other stats and they think that’s Underachieving? These people need to be fired.

Same like Jokic who can’t even dunk or defend. Let’s call a spade a spade. They are not good enough but white people be hyping them.

These guys are casuals.
Luka may not be a TOP defender, but he is a good defender.
He is #15 Guard in Defensive Rating.
They are losing because some other players are underperforming.

Remember when Steph Curry faced this same type of opprobrium for his lack of defense? Yeah, me neither. Guess Steph was the right color.

All of the things said about Luka, can be said about the Joker. It’s amazing how one of them is praised and the other one is criticized. Jokic won 1 NBA championship, several years ago. Luka is far more talented, and important to his team, than Jokic is. The Joker is like the Joe Burrow of the NBA. Praised for something they accomplished long ago. But Burrow never won a championship, so at least the Joker has that going for him.
