Luka Doncic is Dirk Nowitzki’s heir apparent in more ways than one #FIBAOQT
Angry and deflated, Luka went to Greece because he couldn’t bring down his favorite team Slovenia and shine.

After losing in the semi-finals to #FIBAQT hosts Piraeus, Luka Doncic spoke highly of the Greek team.
“They have an amazing team. Obviously, they have Giannis, but all the pieces are also very important, and they’re really well coached. “

Giannis Antetokounmpo, Greece knocks out Luka Doncic, Slovenia in Olympic qualifying semifinals
cbssports.com/nba/news/giann… – 12:33 PM
Slovenia has been eliminated from the Olympic race. The good news in Canada is that it will avoid Luke in its team. The bad news is that Giannis/Greece are still playing. They will face either DR or Croatia in Paris tomorrow, with 1 from Spain/Finland/Lebanon/Bahamas also joining CAN and AUS in Group A. – 12:31 PM
No, Luke at the Olympics is bad at the Olympics.
No Luke in the Olympics is better than Luke and the Mavs.
Giannis has won one from Paris now. – 12:22 PM

Luke’s night (and summer) is over. 21-7-5 w/10 TO (though obviously not all for him)
In 3 matches in this tournament:
27.7 pts/9.7 rebs/8.3 assts
38.7% FG/26.7% (8-30 3pt)/82.6 FT (29-35 FT) – 12:15 PM
Luka and Slovenia after trailing by 24, were down 47-33 at halftime. Luke 10-4-5, but 6 TO, playing all 87 seconds of the half. But in those 87 seconds, his team has 10. He is basically a one man team who has to do everything. Giannis 11-3 for Greece. – 11:28 AM
Greece led 47-33 #FIBAOQT
Giannis 11 points – 3 rebounds

A disastrous first qtr for Luka and Slovenia. Trails Greece 32-14 after 1. The game started with a 13-0 run for Greece and ended with a 10-0 – 10:52 AM
Greece’s defense is crazy right now. They put two on Doncic every time and allowed others to take contested shots. – 10:41 AM

Tim MacMahon: Luka Doncic’s summer break has begun. He checks with more than four minutes left when Slovenia is beaten by Greece in an Olympic qualifier. Disappointed not to be back in the Olympics, but could use a little rest after playing 100+ games last year. – with Twitter @espn_macmahon / July 6, 2024
