Not in this video, but back when Fran Fraschilla specialized in international basketball, on his podcast he asked an American player who was playing in Europe whether he or any of the other American players playing in Europe knew that Luca would be this good in the NBA, or was it a surprise to them? The answer was, "Oh, we knew, we all knew."
😂😂😂 as a suns fan I can confirm Luka is dad. Timberwolves fans are now our step siblings now. Bro nothing bums me out more knowing we took DA over Luka 😂
The picture with Luka and Booker standing on the baseline with Luka looking up at Booker with a shit eating grin from ear to ear is always going to be hilarious to me. Luka looking at him like "are you done, or have you had enough". Amazing.
Yall be dickeating 😂he was comparing him to himself which is praise enough and he said “we’re” not “me”. Anyone with eyes can see the similarities luka is just a unathletic bron
Luka is unequivocally unstoppable right now. The bliss of watching his plays is unmatched. The last player really piqued my curiosity that much was MJ.

THe most spot on where people that watched Real Madrid games or slovenian games. Me as slovenian, I knew he will fit into the nba and mybe even dominate which he did
Great defense, can’t stop great offense. Because in this modern nba era of high octane offense, the rules favor the player with the ball in his hands, and he will most likely get the free throws at least.
And people think Bird couldn’t dominate now. He’s taller than Luka, a better shooter, not quite the passer or dribbler but if it was today he’d obviously have that in his bag. When you’re that good you’re good

he is a great player. but if he play too much ball handling , it will risk him bad injury like derrick rose. when he do that other in his team can not level up their game. he need to find rhythm to manage his energy just like kyrie did, kai encourage other player to step up. it will hard for him to get championship. hope he will realize & do it this year
Klay and Steph made 6 finals in 8 years. Do you really see them exceeding that? The 2 years they did not make the finals were the 2 years Klay did not play due to injury.
i remember seeing kyrie carrying the shit out of lebron at Cleveland. and seeing him with luka.... you realize that this is the duo kyrie was looking for this whole time.
@alexw5042 ..My apologies. Thought u were an actual Luka/NBA fan (aka someone who actually watches the games) and not just dumbass hater. Shoulda known. And yes, he lost. It happens. But Luka was still far and away the most dominant player in the playoffs. Laugh now while you can...
Lebron now, reminds me of a player named Stretch on NBA Street Vol. 1 WAAAYYY back in 2001 for Ps2. Stretch would be like "I may be old but I can still put a whoopin' on you" 😂😂😂 That's LJ now
where are the pundits who put him down before the drafts. also how phoenix did not consult his national team (kokoskov) who was phoenix coach before the draft or how vlade did not pick him in sacramento is worth investigating.
Its better to draft fundamentaly sain player and than develop from there into a team basketball than to draft high school star and than get exposed in the tough NBA games.
What I see: Luka is playing chess on a 5-on-5 board & he’s a board piece with each trip down the court for a basket is a check & he sees every move to get there & he’s playing against the opposing coach. Game won, checkmate.
Best backcourt of all time? No way. Klay and Steph, Jerry West and Gail Goodrich, Isiah Thomas and Joe Dumars - all of these duos were better and that’s just off the top of my head. Remember: neither Luka nor Kyrie are good defenders.
JJ asks LeBron, “why are you blitzing him?” LeBron, “I have no idea, it doesn’t make sense.” Fast-forward to the other day LeBron now says, “you have to blitz him”
LeBron is better defensively, and he’s a better shot blocker but Luka is a better passer, better scorer, and a better rebounder. He was hurt the finals and his entire team wet the bed, but you won’t be seeing him losing six times in finals history because he can actually carry a team to a championship as long as they are going to hit the open shots.
Why are people calling out Lebron for this clip?? Its JJ who makes the comparison and mentions LBJ !! So much hate for LBJ. Must be a lot of old Cavs fans on this thread.
It is so interesting that black players in the NBA admire and respect white players that dan play the game well. Look how black players speak about Larry Bird and his game. On the other hand, the black players in the WNBA treated Caitlin Clark with so much disrespect when all she was doing was playing her game. That is why many fans of the WNBA were so discussed with some of the players from the WNBA because of their attitude toward Caitlin Clark.
Luka plays better than even a peak LeBron in finals and playoffs, just facts. Him glazing himself on his podcast is so cringe. Just say you like Luka and move on lol. 😅
Bird moves the ball around quicker from the perimeter AND the post. Bird is a better help defender and can get rebounds over many centres from todays era. Bird cuts from the by line and is a threat off the ball like Curry is where sometimes there opponents ignore the ball and face guard Curry and Bird. Doncic is not as dangerous as Bird without the ball. All he does is be a threat from the perimeter leaving one man to guard him leaving space for Kyrie or Brunson in the past to cook. Bird on the other hand would be causing havoc all over, utulizing or setting screen to get himself or team mate Kevin Mchale open.
I have never heard LeBron say anything good about someone unless he is comparing himself to them yeah always has to let everyone know how much He thinks of himself what a waste😊
Klay can shoot but can't create. Given they did win 4 championships with their sheer firepower, but in terms of talent? Definitely Luka and Kyrie have a case as the best backcourt.
@@carlosmolina292 They won 4 rings, they aren't really lacking in talent. Steph changed how basketball is played and Klay is probably the best shooter in catch and shoot of all time, and a solid defender. Sure, Irving has the best handle of all time, Doncic is in the top 5 right now but let's not diminish greatness to make a point.
Thats more because stepj changed the game. Klay was an amazing spot up shooter and defender, but he couldnt create for.himself or others. Luka and Kyrie can both literally score from everywhere and playmake for everyone. Thats why theyre being defined as the greatest OFFENSIVE backcourt.
Luka and kyrie are a great back court but uou jave to look at what Klay and Steph have accomplished, lets see some championships and we will see how they shake out in yhe end. There is no doubt that Luka is an anomaly and one of the most fun players to watch
Of course i think they can win, nobody was taking them over Clippers and yet they won, same against OKC and they won, Timberwolves in the WCF "no way they win" and they almost swept them clean. Mavericks have been the best team in the NBA since the trade deadline when they got Gafford and Washington. The run to 5th seed and conquering the west speaks for itself.
The vast majority of developed countries doesn't allow teens to drive until they're 18. Same for alcohol. Legal age is legal age, there aren't multiple legal ages in most developed countries.
Whose take do you guys think was most spot on about Luka Doncic?

Funny thing. In Europe you can drive a car after you are 18, not 16! And we can drink alcohol at 18.
Luka does not care that much. He just wanna play ball doing his thing
If he’s get in better shape he’d be even better. 225lb maybe as a rookie. He’s 260lb plus now
Why are people calling out Lebron for this clip?? Its JJ who makes the comparison and mentions LBJ !! So much hate for LBJ. Must be a lot of old Cavs fans on this thread.
It is so interesting that black players in the NBA admire and respect white players that dan play the game well. Look how black players speak about Larry Bird and his game. On the other hand, the black players in the WNBA treated Caitlin Clark with so much disrespect when all she was doing was playing her game. That is why many fans of the WNBA were so discussed with some of the players from the WNBA because of their attitude toward Caitlin Clark.
Crazy watching this seeing LeBron praise Luka and now they’re teammates.
Jokic said around january 2024 that Luka is the real mvp...But nba is a bussines, not a fair competition...
Lebron said he played the way luca play it sucks
Luka plays better than even a peak LeBron in finals and playoffs, just facts. Him glazing himself on his podcast is so cringe. Just say you like Luka and move on lol. 😅
@@DiabolicalNihilistyou so weird lmao
in europe the average age someone can get a driver license is 18 ;)
Luka is vastly more powerful than Larry Bird. He's competitive AF though.
Luka and Kyrie are bosses!
On defense, not so much, right?
Mark Cuban seems to like them unatheletic but highly, highly skilled. Btw.
Ask AE if he'd smoke a Reefer-E....ban him 4 a season😂😂😂
Bird moves the ball around quicker from the perimeter AND the post. Bird is a better help defender and can get rebounds over many centres from todays era. Bird cuts from the by line and is a threat off the ball like Curry is where sometimes there opponents ignore the ball and face guard Curry and Bird.
Doncic is not as dangerous as Bird without the ball. All he does is be a threat from the perimeter leaving one man to guard him leaving space for Kyrie or Brunson in the past to cook. Bird on the other hand would be causing havoc all over, utulizing or setting screen to get himself or team mate Kevin Mchale open.
No one is bird. No one ever
I have never heard LeBron say anything good about someone unless he is comparing himself to them yeah always has to let everyone know how much He thinks of himself what a waste😊
As for the best back court of all time the answer is pure and simple : no, not in a world where the Splash Brothers existed.
Klay can shoot but can't create. Given they did win 4 championships with their sheer firepower, but in terms of talent? Definitely Luka and Kyrie have a case as the best backcourt.
@@carlosmolina292 They won 4 rings, they aren't really lacking in talent. Steph changed how basketball is played and Klay is probably the best shooter in catch and shoot of all time, and a solid defender.
Sure, Irving has the best handle of all time, Doncic is in the top 5 right now but let's not diminish greatness to make a point.
Thats more because stepj changed the game. Klay was an amazing spot up shooter and defender, but he couldnt create for.himself or others. Luka and Kyrie can both literally score from everywhere and playmake for everyone. Thats why theyre being defined as the greatest OFFENSIVE backcourt.
ITS IMPOSSIBLE TO GUARD LUKA UNLESS YOURE THE ENTIRE BOSTON CELTICS TEAM
I compare this guy to Larry Bird. Still think Larry was better but Luka has time to get there.
Actually he could not drive a car when he turned pro. In Spain you need to be 18yo to drive.
Luka and kyrie are a great back court but uou jave to look at what Klay and Steph have accomplished, lets see some championships and we will see how they shake out in yhe end. There is no doubt that Luka is an anomaly and one of the most fun players to watch
Hate the modern stand around and shoot 3's style. The game was much better before they put in the 3 pointer.
Luguentz Dort did a pretty good job guarding him.
He's not Bird. He's Doncic. As good as Larry Bird was he doesn't come close to Luka.
Luka is the white Larry Bird
The best back court ever is MJ and whoever.
BJ Armstrong lol
Of course i think they can win, nobody was taking them over Clippers and yet they won, same against OKC and they won, Timberwolves in the WCF "no way they win" and they almost swept them clean. Mavericks have been the best team in the NBA since the trade deadline when they got Gafford and Washington. The run to 5th seed and conquering the west speaks for itself.
On top of Luka’s offensive game… he is developing a solid defensive game as well 🔥🙌🏻💯
LBJ I do like his game
But LBJ is pass first, were Luka is scoring first. They aren't they same.
In spain you can't drive a car until you are 18. The rest its ultra perfect!
U cant drive in spain at 16
The vast majority of developed countries doesn't allow teens to drive until they're 18. Same for alcohol. Legal age is legal age, there aren't multiple legal ages in most developed countries.
@@dropelaveswell this here is murica
Doncic Doughnuts!
Typical LeBrag - can't praise another player without praising himself
luka is special but this self proclaimed goat always make it about himself.
Luka isn’t even close to bird. Stop it
🤡
He is the white Larry Bird, no doubt!
Mavs in 4
why yall calling luka, larry bird, when only one thing about them is the same and that is their skin color ? their game is nothing alike what so ever
