I really like Chauncey as an analyst and member of the media, always has something insightful to say.
LORDE OWS THE KING lmao calm down you fucking idiot...
@@lordeowstheking So your attacking him for liking the fact that Chauncey tells the truth????
hey guys I would appreciate it if you guys checked out my Luka Doncic reaction video on my channel.
@@lordeowstheking what about Luka's game is overrated dude puts up solid numbers lmfao you all over his videos hating dor no reason
Except he compared Ayton to Embiid when Ayton doesn't play defense
People underestimate how tough the Spanish league really is. The fact Luka played so well at such a young age against grown men translates his success in the nba. This is nothing new for him.
Plus euro league, plus euro basket against all the great European players in the league: Gasol Brothers, Rubio, playing with Dragic as a teammate.
Euroleague even tougher than Spanish league , and that's where Doncic was the MVP in
he wasnt prob even close to best player in that league like they say, he was best prospect or for his age
not of the league but of some playoffs big difference
???@@davidchandler6885
Chauncey really knows basketball. He is smart and underrated as a player who always made his team better.
Chauncey Billups.. Well Said!
Pass at 1:55 looks simple, but it requires SO MUCH vision and timing to execute. DJ appears open as he starts his roll, but he's actually not because of all the help converging on him (especially from Davis). Luka waits a split second to when DJ is seemingly surrounded, THEN decides to pass the ball just as the help starts to recover back to the perimeter and their momentum takes them away from DJ. Luka doesn't pass to the open player who will be covered, he passes to the covered player who WILL be open.
I'm still trying to work out how he managed to keep an eye on Davis, Randall and DJ all at the same time lol
Great take sir!!
I watch all the videos that feature Chauncey talking about basketball. The guy was always one of my favorite players and now he's a favorite analyst.
Miadous He was one of the best PG's in the 2000s. I'm so glad my boys won against the Lakers in the finals.
Really smart breakdown without any antics. Some analysts make it about themselves, Chauncey is straight up just focusing on the plays
I think he is really enjoying it too.
Those clutch shots with what else luka brings to the table double his value
Man is clutch af
People, Chauncey is one of the smartest players ever... he had an insane basketball IQ and he was also all about making the right play to WIN... that's why he loves Luka so much... Luka plays to WIN... he would take a win with him having 2 points over a loss with him having 20...
Also what Chauncey is saying about Luka being one of the best PLAYERS in the NBA right now is absolutely true because he plays way above the level that players his age play and the main thing is his CLUTCH PERFORMANCE.... you see players 22-23 years old that are already stars in the NBA have huge trouble shooting the big shot in the end... and this guy does it like it's second nature to him... he's as cool as Chauncey was (huge clutch performer in his prime) or even as Kobe was... you don't see him hurry or throw it up on a prayer... he dribbles over and over... he feints over and over... until he gets the tiny little amount of space he needs to shoot... and when he gets it you see him release the ball without being in a hurry, without fear of the clock or the opponent... he thinks "this is my shot... I got it... just another shot..."
This is PRICELESS on a player... LeBron freakin James has struggled in clutch time for the first DECADE of his career... and he may even be the best player that has ever walked the planet earth... best all around player for sure... Jordan much better scorer... Lebron much better all around... Basketball is not about scoring or passing... basketball is ultimately about WINNING... and this kid is a winner... if Lebron could trade Kuzma, Ingram and Lonzo (I'm a huge fan of Lonzo btw... you all haters are clueless about good basketball... the kid has good work ethic and huge potential) all together for him he would do it on a heartbeat... you can find another Ingram, you can find another Kuzma, you can find another athletic wing... finding a clutch shooting winner??? Once every decade...
And finally... assist numbers are worth jack shit... COURT VISION IS WHAT MATTERS... making the right pass even if it's not an assist... people say "he has more assists... he's a better passer...". NO!!! The man with the most assists is not the best passer... in that logic Westbrook who has almost zero awareness of which one is the best pass (without it being an assist) would be a better passer than LeBron... and Duncan would be a mediocre passer because he didn't have 10 assists... but Duncan was a godlike court vision passer... so stop counting freakin assists... assists aren't everything... numbers aren't everything... there's only one stat that counts... WHO WINS THE MOST GAMES... which means out of all the guys with big numbers who's numbers are translating into the most upside for his team... big number without good results for the team are useless... they mean nothing...
Thanks for reading all this crap... 😁
Bird was a better all round player. Everything else, i agree with.
@@saiwaqa2573 better than who?
@@sportschool3537 Bird was a better all round player than Lebron.
@@saiwaqa2573 Man, I love Larry and he was truly incredible because he did all that he did without counting on insane athleticism or being a freak of nature like Magic was... but sorry, I have to give it to LeBron... and I'm not even a huge LeBron fan... but the man passes on a truly ELITE level... he can play the PnR, he can pass to the weak side like a boss, he can force assists by driving, he can do it all... and as for scoring, yeah, Larry was a million times better shooter and LeBron always counted on the fact he's the most brutally unstoppable driving player to ever play... but I think over all (Scoring, Passing, Rebounding and Defending) LeBron comes out slightly better...
One thing I truly give to Larry 100% over LeBron is that he was a WINNER... the man was clutch as hell and he wasn't scared to get into anyone's face... and he trash-talked... he was a godly trash talker... so on that one, on being a clutch winner Larry wins easy over Bron Bron...
@@sportschool3537 we have to agree to disagree. Did you see birds passes? His rebounding? Defense ill give to lebron in his earlier years - def not now. Larry was the definition of the triple threat with amazing footwork, vision, passing, fakes, the man truly is a legend. So we definitely disagree there.
What is the Best in his game for me - he plays so entertaining and attractive. Many people started watching Dallas because of him. He's kinda player, who can be a reason people watch NBA
Agreed!
True.
Scary I started watching a Dallas team other than Luka that has DeAndre Jordan, Barea, Bronson and the other guy that scores and was in GSW, can't even remember his name. I had also forgotten their coach was still Carlisle.
@@henrymakepeace Harrison Barnes.
@@henrymakepeace LOL. I understand your point but this is a video about Doncic, isn’t it? It is what it is… I became Mavs fan because of Doncic. Now, I am cheering for Mavs team not for Luka alone.
look at Giannis at the top of that clutch percentage list, meanwhile Ryan Hollins is saying he isn't clutch.smh
clutch dunks are not hard shots.
@@SickPillow but it is on clutch and it is a shot. And don't say a dunk or a layup in the nba is easy because there's more defender in the paint than on perimeter.
Those are dunks. Can't win championships win lay ups lmao.
@@dhakadhaka3155 😂 your an idiot
@@SickPillow why do they have to be hard is It no better to get easy ones!?
ESPN, More Chauncey, please. Let's see him on First Take or something, too.
Wow this has aged really well
Paul Pierce: Luka reminds me of myself when I played in middle school. When he's in his 5th year he might be as good as I was when I was a rookie
luka is so much better
This brotha can ball🏀
That he can .
Sounding like Stephen a smith hahaha
Luka is a GOAT. He’s having the best rookie season ever since Michael Jordan!
Just for everyone to know, including Chauncey Billups. Luka Doncic has been playing pro since he was 16 YEARS, not 13. He went to Madrid to the youth categories of Real Madrid and then kept growing till pro. Tired of people saying he is been pro since 13 years old..
The Dallas Mavericks are relocating to Europe
The Dallas Mavericks has sacked Rick Carlisle and hired Chauncey Billups!
The Dallas Maveriques
With all these overseas players you might be right 🤷🏾🤦🏿😂😂😂
I'm from Malaysia.. I'm watching NBA becoz of him.... Luka
Luka is clearly james harden without the flopping
J Lee Of the next Luka Doncic.
Or the travelling
Yh...nah B
He’s not there yet nor does he have the same handles, but he is trending towards there as a slower less athletic type. He’s more like a prime Gordon with better passing.
wayyyyy slower, and everything else i want comment on that stupidity
What I love about Luka such a modest guy and his basketball IQ on another level.
I could listen to Chauncey talk about basketball all day. One of the best minds as a PG and leader of the game
Stepback Luka 🔥
Hawks front office: anybody depressed there? 😂😂😂
Travis Schlenk is now the most hated man in Atlanta.
It sucks man.... Some Hawks fans like that poor man version of steph curry. He’s not the answer at all. This is the same organization that took Marvin Williams over Chris Paul.
michele galderisi the Hawks can get him back. There are people who can have it arranged.
The thing is Trae Young isn't supposed to be amazing yet. He is a 3 year project. He has to get broken in. They will be fine as long as they get the right picks this year. Dallas is probably gonna have a top 15 pick and the Hawks are gonna have a top 3 pick. So they are gonna get some talent this year. In about 2 years the Hawks trade is gonna look amazing.
@@jcw034 excuses
35yr NBA fan here. I gotta say this kid is best rook I’ve watched since Lebron. As CB said this kid is special. At 19 he may have the most complete offensive game at that age ever. Scary thing is that he’s gonna get better and better. He’s really fun to watch.
Billups such an incredible man! He made nba teams great! So glad he was part of the bad boy pistons !
Hear hear! He makes the whole team look great - he gave them wings! Mavs are right now the most wachable team. Go Mavs💙💙💙
Such a great vid. Bravo Chauncey!!!
Luka doesn t look like a rookie, he is an old veteran who has high IQ and competes serioursly, the real deal, i ve never seen such maturity from a very young player, he is already the MAVs leader
I think we all needed this because so far no one has known how he does it he’s a rookie
somebody from the Hawks team is getting fired 😂
Unless trea young develops
Atl already had players that took them to the first round of the playoff. We are looking for a team that can take us to the finals and win. Tha TV would be as team not a player unless its Labron and he isnt
@@G4M3PI4Y he wont. He's gonna be good. But no as good as Doncic.
@@carolynhall1896 Lebron-type of a player comes once every 2 decades or so. Doncic has the tools to be a top 5 player in the league, on the Curry/Harden/Durant/Leonard level, which is very valuable. No, he will likely not be as good as LBJ, but James is a top 3 player of all time. Doncic's ceiling is probably more on the Wade/Kobe level.
@@G4M3PI4Y Come on dawg...first year in and Young is averaging almost 17 points and like 12 assists. That ain't amazing but it def ain't trash. His 3pt % needs go come up but he is playing decent.
His ball movement is superb
Chauncy is one of the best former pros that actually performs well as an analyst. Salute to the dude. For 6 years or so that 2004 pistons team was my fav team to watch with chauncy and rip hamilton being my favorite players.
Finals MVP!
Mr Billups and his outstanding analysis. Quite enjoy to watch.
He looks like a normal ass dude playing pick up basketball against these Elite players
6'8" 230 aint normal
You really googled that? Lmao
Dynamitrix 100 Nice try with the Race Card, but Luka clearly doesn't have the body type of the typical NBA player, his body fat % is too high. He just looks like a big, but normal, guy.
@@neonbelly4 lmao, just your everyday casual 6'8, 230 pound 19 year old.
@@paulfrantizek102 Paul Pierce had almost the same body, probably fatter.
As long as it isn't Paul Pierce breaking down the Raptors, it's probably decent coverage.
And now MVP candidate
This kid is special! He realy is!
I re subscribe because of Chauncey and ESPN focusing on sports.
Luka magic
He's the future GOAT
And you are the present and future excitable boy! No doubt at this pace he can be HOF, though.
LEGEND LUCA
He's going to be the greatest of all time, no doubt, and he will make it look effortless
The beat in the background of this clip is low key heat
Didn’t expect to see Robert Covington on that list, props
Great analysis Chauncey!!!!!
Billups knows how to explain bball. One of the best analysts.
Love Chauncey
And we talking about Rookie ! this guy is special
Amazing video.
Good analysis from Chauncey and we can see now.
We need more chauncey Billups
He is special
I know you americans dont wanna hear it but this guy could be one of the best rookies of all time.
For sure hes the most experienced rookie ever no doubt!
If Chauncey approves, then I approve. We love you Chauncey one of the greatest pistons of all time.
Chauncey should be a GM in the league. He's got the goods. He's a great addition to the talk show circuit. Pistons forever.
Chauncey is one of the last nba analyst that doesn’t just jump to an extreme as far as I can remember
Chauncey lowkey becoming the best payer analyst.
Hes got that step back
Chauncey is a great analyst
Chauncey's great.
I love at 1:40 he is saying he has great footwork yet he travels lol he lifted his pivot foot before dribbling
Doncic must be wary around Chauncy. Thats some pure love.
I'm amazed by americans who discover this kid. Go outside the box guys. He done all this plays in Europe during 3 seasons ...
Which is why he's in the NBA right now...
yes, but still NBA is best league in the world and in his first year; very few players have managed that, very few
Chauncey has a great groove on this one, I see goatmentator vibes in there
Luka is the rookie of the year he showing with ease that he has a full package his entire game that boy is legal and he is catching bodies in the NBA because he has great feetwork and plenty of skills all facts
Luka Dončić, Goran Dragić, Primož Roglič, Tadej Pogačar, Jan Oblak, Tina Maze, Anamarija Lampič, Ilka Štuhec, Peter Prevc, Anže Kopitar and and many many other top athletes are the great pride of our Slovenia, which has a total population of 2.1 million!!! Thank you girls and boys for the visibility and many joys. From Slovenia with LOVE. Slovenija BANG BANG
That season Oladipo had with Indy that year was such a tease
Luka, tell Melania I said zdravo.
🤣
:)
From Россия with Love
Chauncey best nba analyst espn has ever had
Hes not afraid to fail. That is whats good about him.
Brilliant!
Keep Watching Him . No 🧢
What's crazy is that all of those plays look like they're locked down completely then Doncic does a little footwork and it becomes a bucket. I think lots of people assumed his lack of explosiveness or athleticism would keep him from making it work in the NBA, but his skill set and fundamentals and play making abilities are through the roof
Damn does Chauncey have his own show yet??
Suns, kings and hawks are regretting their pick right about now😂
As a hawks fan. Yes period.
Not suns
I doubt the suns are regretting Ayton he second in Roy votes.
@@Bigalinbklyn83 ok another nerles noel while you got possibly one of the best in dallas
subaru sti07 stop, please watch ayton play man. Luka is great but ayton is so much better than nerlens ever was especially as a rookie
Dude was the mvp of the second most popular basketball league in the world for a reason🙄🙄🙄
Rick Carlisle coached Chauncey to ECF in '03 and now coaches Doncic. He also coached undrafted Ben Wallace into a 2x DPY superstar. Then coached Ron Artest to DPY the next year and got IND to ECF, and later got Dirk to a championship. I think he deserves some of the credit for Doncic's success. Luka's great himself, but maybe not as good this soon if playing for a lesser coach.
nah..
I miss seeing Chauncey and Paul
Crazy how they praise his step back. Luka said he never trained them, just did it randomly in a game.. everybody told him his stepback was niceeee like that. Now they in his bag.
Mind you.. professionals praising him for pulling moves off he didn't even train before. That man bleeds Basketball
On that play against the Pelicans, he looked of the corner on the strong side, and the weak side and forced Davis AND the weak side help defender to play the passing lane to the corners leaving DJ wide open in the paint! The wonderboy's IQ is unreal!
As a Laker fan this kid is amazing to watch. He's clutch asf as well definitely an all star he's done so much he blocked LeBron twice his idol. He has so much to go
Luka might be my favorite player. I need a new one after harden let me down last year
Damn Billups. You’re doing the league homework for them.
I respect Chaunceys opinion more than anybody's
the same
One of the cleverest players when he was playing
Luka is future mvp
Special
Chauncey is great, so smart!
Luka's backstep is smoother than Harden's.
Dallas management was smart enough to throw prejudice out of the window and go for European players, and it always paid off.
He will win at least two championships in his career
Ironically, when Chauncey mentions his footwork, he travels 😂
But yes, Luka doesn't lool like a rookie. He seems like he has been around for years. A fun player to watch.
Julius Randle didn’t know what was happening on the play hahahaha
his 18th triple double against bucks so far this week Aug 2020 " 36points - 19 assist - 14 rebounds " ..that's incredible
It is incredible for sure to be honest he been professional when he is 16 but he have father been professional basketball years ago which makes him really good.
@@klaudiushaw1781 No you are wrong. He was able to go Professional because he is really good. He is a bball Prodigy. Its not like just anyone can take his path, and even if they did, its not like they will be anywhere near as good. This is a Generational talent. Learn what that means. It means talent like this is rare, and is known to come once in a generation.
you know youve done something when MISTER BIG SHOT calls you clutch
Luka A Monster He's Gotta Hit His Free Throws To Become Elite Overall
Who is here after phenomenal lakers vs mavs 😯
They need to win more games if he wants to be considered for rookie of the Year.
The best rokie ever...💪👍
Someone tag Ryan Hollins at 2:39, wonder what more he got to say about Giannis hahahaha.
If Harden was a DVD, this kid would be the blu-ray edition with special features
Future GOAT
who else thinks this guy plays like Bird did ? the IQ, the step back, passing, court sense, shooting.. Looks like a 1984- Bird
