Who is your pick if you're building your franchise today?
Luka period
Sad timing for NBA
Two best players are foreign and Euro. Overshadowed by domestic ing.
Luka. Offensive Era and he's a creator. Line of scorers want to play for him.
Lord Luka. Mavericks snag a couple les.
A more interesting question is if you could pick between Luka,Jokic,Giannis to start a team who would you pick and in what order?
Lebron and Kawhi are from Norway?
Lebron is from Spain and Kawhi Turkish
No truth yet that a line of scorers wanna play with him. Luka to me is brilliant my favorite non Laker to watch but he has to be mindful of all the ref ing and an over reliance on over dribbling and step backs.
We can't critique Harden for this and give Luka a pass.
Don't get me we wrong, he is getting a lot of contact uncalled and is quicker to pass than Harden but the similarities are there.
similarities in certain skills sure
but his game isnt nearly as gimmicky or ref-reliant as harden
and he doesn't shrink when his team needs him or he sees physicality, doubles and triples
those are more of the reasons harden is critiqued, bc his exceptional skills disappear when his team needs them. this year, luka proved he actually improves when his team needs him.
No doubt...he already shows more intestinal for ude than Harden. I'm just saying I would like to see less stepbacks and less ing. I don't even think his over reliance on dribbling is nearly as bad as Harden. Luka dribbles to get the advantage and goes to the paint Harden does it to much and for show ...
Kawhi and it's not even close.
No one makes the impact he does on a team.
Agree if the goal is to win in 2020 or 2021
Longterm its Luka and its not close
I think so to an extent, but just unsure til I see just a tad more success and durability (I know that sounds hypocritical based on me digging Mr. Load Management, but his success is pretty much unequaled since '14).
But Kawhi has a good 5-7 years minimum in the tank and the guy is just an assassin. He's the only player in the NBA with the track record where you can literally put him almost anywhere and they become contenders.
Gives some light at the end of this ty tunnel. Can't wait for LeBron and Carmelo and Chris Paul and the rest of that generation to filter out of the league. We need a palate cleanse.
Luka - but I'm biased, obviously.
Book's not closed on Giannis. Not totally convinced he is a beta but it's looking that way.
Kawhi Leonard if he wasn't cursed with that degeneritive knee would've been the GOAT. This man was guarding the best player while giving you 25+ points every game
all truths
question: is my franchise in la?
if yes, then kawhi.
if no, then luka.
Luka between the two
Luka. He just needs to stop taking tough shots and rather attack the basket more, cause when he does it he gets to the basket with no problem. His 3pt % is so low just cause of the step backs. He also need to shoot the FT's at least 80%. His defense was pretty good this year and I dont see how it wont get better.
With Giannis idk. He's just a ty shooter. Yes, he is great at attacking the rim, but once u put 2 or 3 players in the paint he is done. He is a solid passer, but even that he should improve. I love his defense, but in this new NBA era that doesnt put him over Luka.
I said it before. Give Luka Klay Thompson or some shooter that can actually make shots and the Mavs will be champs 5X in a row. If Porzingis is healthy.
Luka just turned old enough to legally buy a beer this year. That's insane. The really scary thought is Giannis joining him in Dallas to form a super Euro team.
Are there still Suns fans here? Luuk has the goods. He needs some help, though.
He's too talented to continue that behavior. I see him eventually being an all time great shooter.
