I found a thread on twitter and the guy breaks down Luka’s impact with supporting data. Is Luka a generational talent or an overrated player? Everyone seems to think he’s a winning player but the stats say otherwise.
Some stats below:
Kyrie with Luka together: +/- +2.95 (286 mins)
Luka (Kyrie on bench): +/- -3.5 (275 mins)
Kyrie (Luka on bench): +/- +5.6 (142 mins)
Overrated =/= Bad. Yes he is great but he is also overrated. Some people say he is the best player in the league, he doesn’t impact the game as Giannis or Jokic. They only look at box scores
