Definitely a tough balance. The real question is will the new engine kind of run the same as this engine? Because if not, then all these talks of nerfs/boosts would not be applicable.
Big changes are coming in D.C.

Blocks are really high in this engine which is why they were dropped down, but i think lowering steals might have had a slight effect here (which is potentially being reverted in the transition to 22).

I dont think this is sustainable for Luka and do think that while he will still be a superstar in the new engine (as he should be with those ratings) that he wont do what hes doing now on a regular basis. I could be wrong though.

I'll give a proper answer when I have the time to look at the game in detail, but of the players mentioned here, at first glance only Thybulle seems the type of player who could defend Doncic. I think people misunderstand frequently what the DEF rating does (and what it does not).

Also, it's important to consider the defensive strats, not only type but also zone, DI and FCP. So it's not as straightforward.
