Brendan Vogt

And I just watched a handful of Lakers games over the month.

I would love to go back and watch all of these and just only shadow Luka on defense and then come back and report my findings.

I'm going to guess probably not defensive player of the month material.

And if you think about like the combination of those skill sets.

Right.

Yeah.

Right.

And how unique it is and not just the stats, but watching Yoke, especially when his turnovers are low.

Him averaging almost 13 rebounds per game, you have to understand those are either unbelievable offensive rebounds that he won and then just put right back, or defensive boards that he immediately starts the outlet, just starts a fast break.

Every single rebound into offense, rebound into offense.

These are meaningful rebounds, of course, and the way he just converts it into...

Um, you know, just a relentless, I even think he feels like he can live with some of these turnovers because if we're just creating enough of these on the go at speed, easy looks at the rim or just easy offense, it's just worth it over the course of four quarters.

And yeah,

When you just consider the combination of those skill sets and then put the scoring on top of it, it really drives home the fact that no one else is this complete offensively.

It's really not close.

I feel like has to be the exact way that he is for this player to exist.

And so, but I do when he's not doing it, it does feel like, like, I always felt like if I could borrow any trait from any of the other contemporary superstars, it would be Yannis is every single day kind of thing.

Maybe that's a reason he did fall.

But you know, at the same time, it's like, I don't know.

I don't know.
