Bruh i mean luka is the best player in that group, tatum is a great player but he has no aura, zion lost his a long time ago and paolo is still building his aura
@@kentymashmilo758 Paolo is going to get there. I'm not sure what Tatum has to do. Besides the championship he's a great individual player (top 10 at worst) and a good looking guy. But for whatever reason, he just doesn't have "it" to make people focus on him over other greats.
did you know that asians have a secret admiration for whites. As Asians, we feel a different admiration when we see a white and handsome person compared to blacks and other races.
Luka is a good figure for Slovenian sport and country in general, as he is a hardworking man with a calm and loving nature. I hope he will be able to achive what he wants to achive in basketball and then enjoy his life on a farm in Slovenia.
nice video. also shows how big jordan brand is. this wasn't even exclusive single player trip but bunch of them who wear it. luka is hilarious. also really looking forward to what tatum will bring this year.
That was so sweet. People here don't understand.....a lot of those people have no shot at ever getting out of where they are or hope of even seeing celebrities/athletes they admire. That might be a once in a lifetime thing and it's incredibly overwhelming. I spend a lot of time in the Philippines and it's the same. They love basketball so much and it's the main thing they play in most places. But the chances of a big time celebrity from the US or anywhere in Europe visiting? Probably zero except maybe in Manila, and then you're competing with 20 million people to even get a glimpse.
The Philippines is very good at playing basketball. The only country in south east asia that love hooping instead of playing football like others southeast asia neighbouring countries. Salamat po
@@bigjimmy7423 Why would staying in another country boost your ego? I have a house there. Great people, inexpensive living, beautiful landscapes. You don't go anywhere to "boost your ego", you travel to enrich your appreciation of the world and not be someone who doesn't understand other cultures.
He is insanely popular in Asia. Top 5 Basketball heroes (they really love Curry and James). But Luka is right there and getting more popular every year. I could make a good living sending myself boxes of 77 jerseys and selling them there.
@@SDesWriter is not all that but luka bags making asia players and fan possibilities to emulate his game (as asians are mostly not that tall and athletic) .. stepback 3s, cross over dribble, switch hand lay up, turnaround jumper, post up move..
@@jackchan6624 You're overthinking it. I'm not talking about the pro-players, I'm talking about EVERYWHERE. Go to a local "gym" (just a concrete court with an awning to keep it in the shade), and the main number you're going to see is 77. I don't see a lot of stepbacks or complicated offensive moves because most of the kids are completely un-coached unless they are really good AND at least 5'10. They have some high level teams (just missed making the Olympics by losing to Brazil in the Finals), but that's not what I'm talking about. Go to the market or the mall or find a court. The jersey I see the most is Luka's and everyone from players to my wife to her dad (a little bit of a player) are really familiar with him and the Mavs. He's really big in numerous countries because of his international play plus the NBA stuff. Also, most casuals don't give a shit about defense and he's the #3 scorer in NBA history, so if you watch NBA highlights on TH-cam, you're going to see a lot of him looking like a superstar. Not to mention ladies seem to think he's the best looking NBA player (I never hear the end of that one). 😂
At least they were walking at the better perserved parts of the great wall, there are sections where the steps are so wide and uneven you get out of breath after 2 minutes. Crazy thing was that there was an office lady who decided to walk around rough sections of the great wall with high heels for 5 HOURS. I was like wtf how are you going up and down 4 miles worth of stairs in high heels at like 40 degrees farenheit (don't let what they wear fool you, the place can get really cold during the winter and very hot in the summer. Think of like New York or Boston )
@@GrantAfseth yeah it's indeed crazy, my soles and knees were sore after 3 hrs and this lady was doing better than my family and I (granted, my family during that time wasn't in the best shape compared to now). But I was so impressed how she decided to go on a hike just because her appointment got cancelled so she decided to walk through the great wall in high heels and a pencil skirt. She's tough
@@jayzee316 yeah, that time i went there it was christmas. It was so cold and windy, espicially walking up the walls. It was hard to see the scenery because of the air pollution and it was also very cloudy that day. The sky was grey and black
@@sebastianleung2897 It's not pollution per say, air has gotten a lot better since they moved the factories to other areas. But BJ or that entire northern area gets sand storms from Mongolia every year at that time. I was in northwestern area once during that time and there were literally no pollution sources, no factories, no industry, just desert and certain times of year it's really smoggy because of that. But I think the best times to visit are basically spring (mar-may), and then fall (late sept to nov). Pollution used to be really bad here in shanghai as well due to industry, but since those have moved away the air is actually really good 95% of the time, though I still wouldn't invite anyone over during the summer, way too hot/humid. Yunnan is where it's at, the entire year is free of pollution and feels like spring.
The legends are the most famous in China… Kobe. Inversion and Yao……… these guys are great but none of them will reach even a fraction of a fraction of that level in China… you need that special something to make it to that level in China
He's finally lost a lot of the weight, but he's still around 280lbs. Hoping he can get to his target so he stays healthy and can extend his career. Great talent if he can just get healthy and play a full season.
@@GrantAfseth Not criticize your content in anyway. What i meant to say was the Vintage ESPN C’mon Man segment would definitely features "Luka need a stick to walk up The Great Wall" and have a good laugh.
What a dumb take. It's hot and humid and he's climbing a stone stairway that's very steep and tall (and made for little people who weigh about 125lbs). You're ass wouldn't even make it up the stairs. I've climbed a similar one in Bohol PH and even young men in shape have to stop and sit twice or even three times to catch their breath or they wouldn't make it up.
People keep talking about the weight room and gym for Luka - he seems to be doing alright seeing as how none of the "world class athletes" in the NBA can stop him.
He literally bodies everyone in the finals he bodied Tatum and almost all of his defenders wtf do u mean get in the weight room he’s like 240 with a muscular build
Wow people are overcome with emotion meeting Luka ❤ how sweet
Is there any doubt who's the icon of this group? On the court with Tatum, Zion and Banchero and all you hear is "Luka!"
Bruh i mean luka is the best player in that group, tatum is a great player but he has no aura, zion lost his a long time ago and paolo is still building his aura

@@SDesWriter i don't like this aura meme but saying tatum has 0 aura is 100% correct, guy is just cringe
he's an old man already, needs a stick
Luka so humble, my fav nba player right now
Chinese pepole are so kind and honest. Really hard working people! Love China! Greetings from Slovenija!
appreciate bro🎉❤
🇸🇮🤙🤙🤙
Come on, man.
Whose gonna tell him? 😆
Greetings right back at you guys! Love your home-grown kid Luka! May he win the title soon and peace around the world!
Luka is the best ❤
Luka is a good figure for Slovenian sport and country in general, as he is a hardworking man with a calm and loving nature. I hope he will be able to achive what he wants to achive in basketball and then enjoy his life on a farm in Slovenia.
I have a piece of land for him in China if he doesn't mind🙃

I love you Luka 💙
Cool…Luka and the others!
Go Mavs! This is our year! From your biggest Pittsburgh fan!🖤💛🏀✌️
Grant!! Great content as usual but its so cool seeing you get to tag along for the journey too.
Luka tha Don.
Shout out G A for the dope content, gotta give him credit.
Good Luka!!!
Them stairs were kickin Zion’s ass 💀 0:38
Sounds like Luka was tired too…..
those stairs kick everyone's ass. lol
zion lost weight
@@kevingraham4736not pro athletes that take care of themselves. Notice Tatum and Paolo weren’t panting
It’s like hot as hell there I’m certain
The next gen❤
Good job
This probably Luka's hardest workout
Then you've never seen him workout. They're all over TH-cam. You just have to search.
@@SDesWriter dude relax...its a joke you weirdo lol
Philippines next pls luka
I don't know why Luka didn't hug that woman, it would be a much better look

When people meet Luka they cry, while when people meet Lebron they get angry after since he does not care for his fans.
You got it, Lebron shoving a kid at the Olympics for a picture is crazy. But of course, if that was a different kid he would stop.
❤w końcu jakiś białas bryluje❤
The world appreciates Luka better then the US such a crime. Go Mavs!

Magic fans be nervous when Paolo being silly on that rail.
This probably the exercise to lower Luka's weight and increase stamina 🤔
Zion: ties his shoes
Chinese fans: woooaaaah 😱😱😱🤩🥳
Lukaaa
Everyone was tripping over luka. Show the champ some love. Luka has enough
damn he got the kyrie esque walking stick.. 2025 mvp
so cool seeing him with paolo, tatum, and zion i love it
tatum圣堂刺客
Thanks bro I saw Luka but was wondering who the hell where these other unknowns.
@@RighteousUncle loool thats right #praviMVP
the GOAT wall of China.
imaging soldiers carry full gears back then battling
I would have cried like a baby if I met Luka in this event. Other players doe.. Meh
This is what "peace" looks like.. wait till you are with 100k people lol

best time to visit is like oct/nov, fall colors and its not too hot/cold. you can see ocean of green-yellow-red leaves on the view.

destroying them hooper knees 😭
they should play 2x2
Zion looks 39 💀
Luka need rest his knee in whole season

Hello
That's a modern wall, not the real ancient wall, they extended parts of the ancient wall made with modern materials for tourists purposes
cope
I just wish Tatum wasn't there
Zion this wall is warzone, not really what peace looks like
Zion got that oldman gait
He's finally lost a lot of the weight, but he's still around 280lbs. Hoping he can get to his target so he stays healthy and can extend his career. Great talent if he can just get healthy and play a full season.
Luka with a stick? Bring back the ESPN's come on man!
Not all content is for everyone. I'm pretty limited on what I can do as an independent NBA media person with minimal resources in August.
@@GrantAfseth Not criticize your content in anyway. What i meant to say was the Vintage ESPN C’mon Man segment would definitely features "Luka need a stick to walk up The Great Wall" and have a good laugh.
@@DanielLimbirdman Oh I see, yeah that'd be great content haha
He loves to make jokes about himself, so this stick is just part of the show.
Zion像鲁智深
Now we just need Kamala to build us our own wall. Right guys?
Chinese shoes deal for sure, why would he be over there.
Enes Canter Freedom nowhere to be seen.
One day celebrities from China will climb Trump's
Great Wall and take photos with their American fans
Now tell me.. who's the goat..jordan or lebron
Easy.Luka of course.
Seeing him with a walking stick, makes me wonder if he’ll even be ready for the next season

Trump was stoped to build such wall between USA and Mexico... 😅
Zion looks so fit....seems like he lost a lot of weight ......
Zion is about to die man
Bro looks ready to flop 😂
nah he looks ready to lead in every major stat again 😎
Luka, please visit the weight room and gym. Mavs 2025 champions 🏆
Stop this nonsense. Get some self respect.

The team needs to keep his diet in check during the season and he'll be fine.
He looks good on this video
