Why did everyone hate D'Antoni for encouraging this, yet applauds when Luke does it?


Because he was doing it to Dwight Howard and Pau Gasol.


He never did it with Howard.

Also, it's a different time. The perception of what is good or "winning" basketball has changed dramatically.

MDA also let his players off the hook for not any playing defense. Harden is going to love the guy.

I don't think Luke is going to allow that and he'll make players accountable for playing defense. He wants 3&D guys and MDA only wants the 3. MDA ball is still loser ball.
