Luka Doncic

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
This play right here was LeBron-esque. Really nice move resulting into sucking 4 defenders in and finding the open man with ease with no hesitation.

Superstar...

DSJ needs to fucking chill because his low basketball IQ is infuriating. Gotta say it, I'm not a big believer in DSJ because of his basketball IQ, ball hogging mentality and quick 3pt trigger despite beign an awful shooter. Just a bad playmaker and shooter for the guard position all-around without a good defense to fall back on.

I feel like DSJ got sucked into his own hype. He believes he's so much better than he actually is. Dude hasn't accomplished anything yet.
 
Doncic is the real deal. He's basically prime Joe jounson with a better handle and playmaker. He's got a chance of being a great player
 
Imagine having a shot at a young Larry Bird and trading away the pick for Trae Young

Who knows if he'll get there but seriously it's like flashback to the 80's watching Bird before his back injury. Big body with PG dribbling and vision on top of a deadly jumper.

I mostly agree with you, but Larry was one of the greatest shooters of all-time. Doncic still needs to prove he can be as good of a shooter. He has all the other tools though.

P.S. I think Bird was a flashier passer too.

So I agree Larry Bird, yes Larry freaking Bird was probably better:chuckle:

But he is sloowww and unathletic :).

It is amazing to see that Euros, no matter how good, skilled and succint they are, are subject to different evaluation standards. There is a huge group of people who see a lot of potential in chuckers with no basketball iq, no understanding of the game and full of confidence. And I guess this includes some GMs and coaches as well.
 
If your metric of choice is flashy passing then Luka's ceiling is high as fuck :chuckle:

Indeed, but it's still tough to compete with Bird in that department. :D I don't know why, but I just find those flick/touch passes so sexy. Bird loved doing that. With Luka, it's mostly behind the back with his right hand.

Not to take anything away from Bird, but Luka also has the ability to use his left hand and and to throw no-look flick passes...he just needs to develop chemistry/timing with his new teammates before he can show it off.

As was the case with Bird, his size makes him incredibly dangerous as a passer. You can throw multiple defenders at him but he'll still be able to throw a pass over or around them.

I'm sure there's going to be a ton of Dallas highlights this year. Doncic/DSJ/Jordan trio is made for that.
