Rookie season: "Not a good finisher"
Next season: Number 1 shooting percentage at the rim
I was going to write same thing and I found your comment :P
@MAN UTD NOBODY GIVES A SHIT
@MAN UTD I sure love soccer! I get SOOOOOO entertained when they just repeatedly pass the ball, then loss it, so the other team does the same thing, but then one guy acts like he got shot when a fly lands ear? Oh, the best part, European fucke- I mean, geniuses, love to repeatedly keep talking trash when they don’t watch their shit sport! But that’s just my opinion
And he lacks explosion with a 42" vertical leap. Just insert stereotype about white, esp, European players and go with it. Who cares if there's evidence.
@@maineman2317 he does not have a 42 inch vertical lmao. He would have better dunks than a basic one handed off one
"His embellishment of slight bumps would make James Harden proud"
I'm dead.
Leon Dy ikr, I was dead
Players like Doncic have a type of athleticism that is tough to measure. Hand eye coordination, lateral agility, and footwork are tough to get metrics on. When you combined those traits with his size, he is an elite athlete. Straight-line speed and vertical leap are easy to measure, but don't necessarily translate to production. Another great video by the way.
Thanks! Great points. His deceleration is excellent too.
@@ThinkingBasketball maybe wiggins lack some of those points? idea for another video?
specifically, Doncic's lateral quickness was noted as a prime weakness, suggesting that he'll have difficulties keeping up with bigger faster players, yet hes already working hard on it and has already shown improvement
So he has white boy athleticism? 😂
J/k, racist jokes aside you actually raise a good point.
@@Oncopoda You're not necessarily wrong. There are certain traits you see in black players that aren't as prevalent in white players, and vice versa. Explosiveness is more visually apparent than the traits I mentioned and seen more often in black athletes. It seems like there has been an influx of white players in the NBA lately. It would be interesting to see if that is true, or it just seems to me to be that way. And if it is true, is it because talent evaluators are picking up on the traits I mentioned?
I love how he has improved so much. Watching this video shows that he has literally improved every part of his game including defense. Well done
The Euro-Duo is gonna be so fun to watch next year.
why next year an not next months?
@@jogatavid Next year meaning next NBA year, meaning next NBA season, meaning next fall later this year.

I can't believe we have to wait all the way 'til October to see it! Can't wait!!

The only thing that can stop Luka from becoming great is injury..
Scarface Reivax he had minor injuries so far and none of them had stop him
ablackprep I wouldn’t be surprised if he was just soft
True. Durability and longevity is different for everyone. As great as Larry Legend was, sometimes he was too stubborn and sustained injuries he could/should have prevented. I know modern medicine is great and conditioning is wonderful but even the the most durable of elite athletes are outliers. Lebron is one of the few pushing 35 and keeping up with the kids. Meanwhile you got Kawhi who is a top 5 player who needs to be rested every 3-4 days and absolutely cannot do back to backs.
@@t4d0W I thinl Kawhi have a degenerate condition thats why the Clips and Raps manage his load
kawhi played tons of back to backs in the last playoffs

‘Faking Ilyasova back to Turkey’ 😂
Funny cause Ilyasova allegedly faked his name to get into Turkey in the first place
Faking Ilyasova is no great feat.
@@mrsbndkt was born and raised in turkey and had connections with people in turkey's youth setups. ilyasova is from uzbekistan, grew tall enough so moved to turkey, changed his name (from Arsen Ilyasov I believe) and lowered his age two to three years. i believe nba teams knew this, and never gave him the contracts he hypothetically would have deserved, but he is crafty and modern enough that he is still a significant piece. he's like 33-34 though.
@@agaetisbyrjun
I believe Fluka isn't 19 either. He's 26.
@Patrick Omalley
LOL....that's a rough faced 19 year old. Russia cryogenically brought him back to this time.
Damn, looking back at this video, it's completely bonkers how much Luka's improved in one year 🤯 He went from a sub-All Star leading a subpar Mavs offense in his rookie year, to a legitimate MVP candidate in his second leading the most dominant offense in the league. This man is special.
Next season Luka will average 45.6ppg...10.3 rpg...7.6apg...2.5spg....56.3 from 3pt...and 95.7 from the line
@@theretrosavage lofty predictions, so far he’s lagging far behind on points but making good headway. crazy thing is he’s on pace to destroy your projected assists. i don’t think he’ll ever be a nash-esque FT shooter tho
@@ARMTOAST ikr... I'm brilliant
$$$ Single handedly going to get European players drafted way higher for the next 5 years $$$
And there’s some fantastic talent coming over soon. Stay tuned!
@@mrsbndkt ya but inbetween that talent are a lot of alex lens, mario hezonias, dragan benders, jan vesley bargnani, and jakob peurtls. There are a lot of american busts to but its harder to read European talent cuz the game is different. Often you find the best euro players come later in the draft or undrafted like jokic, nurkic, bogdan and bogdan, gobert, m.gasol and bellinelli. Maybe thats on NBA scouts not doin thier jobs but until they can figure out which euro skills are transferrable its not worth the risk.
R. B. I think it’s a lot of what you described. Also, some players just don’t get the time to become what they ought to become. Jan Vesely, for example, might have been bad in the NBA in like 2012 but any team would love to have him as a rotation center right now (after a team actually cared to develop him). Man legit went from 45% free throw shooting to over 80% in three years 😂
The Porzingis effect
@@R.B.90 Poeltl is a good player, wouldn't lump him with those other guys.
"I don't think there's ever been a craftier rookie in NBA history"
I mean, Bird and Magic. They were incredible. But Luka makes the case for a 19 year old definitely, there's not been one.
A three-four year veteran. Not really a rookie.
velardejl The kid is 19 and is an nba rookie, so yes, he’s a rookie.
@@donovanm5128 Age doesn't make one a rookie.
@@velardejl He was an NBA rookie lmao
Luka has the opportunity to be as great! His foundational skillset I think is in that tier. Magic, Bird, James...
Damn bro was spot on. Luka is looking a like a superstar right now.
The Mavs were a bad team after the trade yet Luka kept them in most games even though teams were focusing on him.
Your videos are pure gold. Absolutely amazing content
I'm pretty pissed that Luka didn't make the All-Star game. When the fans give you the third most votes of any player in the league, you should be an automatic lock to be in the game.
Some didn't buy the overhype, that's all.
SPOILER ALERT: This is a bitch boy video hating on Luka because he's white.
DLX MYSTIK dude get a life i see you commenting the same thing on miltiple comments
DLX MYSTIK No, fuck your feelings.
You didn't understand the meaning of ALL-STAR
10 minutes about Doncic and not talking at all about clutch situations efficency and extreme confidence is a bit odd for me.It's just what set Luka apart from everyone else
If you want to know why he doesn’t talk about that, there’s a chapter in his book called “Clutch play and late-game bias”

Exactly
That’s crazy I been calling him Larry Harden for a while and I’ve never seen your video great minds think a like
Man your videos basketball videos are something else! Uou go deeper into detail and advanced analytics while showing easily on video with great examples that everybody can understand!
I would just to comment one thing that I dont know if you were aware of doing these analysis, and is the fact of shooting from his halfcourt at the end of every quarter and in time, which is something pretty rare to see in todays nba and something that clearly decrease his 3pt% I would like to know if you have taken this into account. A hug!!
I believe a follow up on this report is deserved after the magnificent 2020 season.
Luka is a undoubtedly a transcendental, generational player;to say naturally inclined and gifted would be remiss. That said, the craftiest most dynamic rookie coming into the league I've ever seen has been Kyrie.
Luka's a bigger Kyrie with better passing and slightly worse iso
Jason Jia So better than kyrie?
@@JasonJia909 This season Kyrie has become a much better passer, but still clearly doesn't have that natural playmaking ability that Luka has
@@dlxinfinite7098 lol
@@dlxinfinite7098 compare his rookie stats to lebrons rookie year
Nobody ever says it, but the player his game is EXACTLY like is Paul Pierce, but at a Steph Curry range. This is exactly how Paul Pierce would get his buckets, but because of the era, Pierce would play from the Key-in. Luka starts his offense from a few feet behind the 3pt line.
Exactly Paul Pierce. With a bit of Melo. Both players who weren't crazy athletic but could score
Andy Sauro I think luka gots both of them on rebound and assist though
Sergio Hernandez yeah.. luka has the potential to be considerably better than those two
@@sa1sa624
Ben Simmons rookie year....16 pts, 8.2 rebs, 8.1 assists. Highest triple double rate of any rookie in history. Can play any position
DLX MYSTIK Ben has never won anything in his life besides the fact he built like a 7 foot point guard with no J. He’s got moves at rims which is nice. He could be really good at this age though. Hasn’t won yet. While Luka won for his country / Real Madrid / growing up championship. They not nba of course but he’s a gamer when game on line he’s who came thru. Ben doesn’t have that. He’s got Tobias / Embiid / butler. Give Luka that tram right now they win the east
Its not a floater its La Bomba
How is this man not an NBA scout... he is incredible
Skinz he is
THIS IS WHY I SUBBED!! HE REALLY IS LIKE HARDEN BUT WITH BYRD SKILLS AS WELL!! BRAVO!
Great video.
Just on the 3rd play, not only does he do what you mentioned, but he jump carries/steps, the ball, over the defender, catches the help defender hip on his left, thereby preventing him from interrupting his play. It's pretty basketball.
However, I wouldn't agree he has 'below average athleticism'. He's stronger and more athletic then what you perceive on video.
He wouldn't average a triple double alone, on BB IQ.
p.s. Sorry for all the edits. Since Luka came off of winning the EuroLeague, being MVP and training with the national team, he had no break, before joining the NBA, that's why Rick (coach of mavs) and strength and conditioning staff, said, take time off, just play how you want to play this rookie here. Next year, we can start on adding strength and different skills, but for this year, we gonna chill.
Finally a luka video
It's crazy how good people like yourself are at analyzing basketball. Things I would not think about or notice you make very clear. Great job.
8:39 MVP candidate yes year 2 have shown us that already is in MVP race
Love my Hometown Dallas sports teams especially the Mavs. I hope Luka remains consistent over the seasons and improves his game and earns the label Legend that ppl have placed upon him. KP has my full support as well as the city of Dallas and I hope he can overcome the injury he sustained and manage to be the same player b4 the ACL tear. Love the content man you Just earned another subscriber.
I love these videos.
Dudes legit! That Luka off hand reach is something subtle but very effective in creating time to slow defenders down. That's a vet move. He's spot on! I was thinking about Lukas skills a few days ago. Years ahead of every other rookie.
I've been watching Luka since he was 16 and the best thing about him is that every season he improves
I love your channel so much. You succeed at establishing a fine balance between stats and opinions. I can see this channel going far!
He just shot a buzzer beater in a playoff game, this aged well
He learned how to exagerate contact from the soccer players of Real Madrid.
Fair and unbiased analysis of Luka's rookie skills
These videos are incredible. Keep it up.
i knew that Luka would be good, but i havent expected that he would make such a big impact in his rookie season.
even if he just improves his game slightly over the next years, he will become a regular all-star.
but he also has the potential to become a mvp candidat.
People trashing his defense.. I mean.. He's still only 20 and won't be 21 till like February. He will grow into a decent player. He has good defensive instincts for a young age. Give him time. As I said.. He is YOUNG. he will continue to get better. And that shit should scare every team in the league.
He's most likely top ten. Hopefully he stays consistent. Give credit where it's due. Hating for no reason is pathetic but to be hated you must be really good at your job.
Huh? He isnt hating, this vid is almost a year old lol. Check out his new vid on Luka. th-cam.com/video/q9crdCIZwjc/w-d-xo.html
I think he has a deceptive quickness, cuz he is so big for his position.
he can definitely get out on the break when he wants to
For all of the incredible ways Luka Doncic has mastered the game of basketball. It must be pretty cool to come to a game and watch Luka Doncic play. That’s because you know you’re going to get your money’s worth, and he’s probably going to do something you’ve never seen before.
I feel like Luka is already like in his 4th year and that why he is better than everyone in his class
i watched this with no idea this is the backpicks dude
the backpicks top 40 changed the way I thought about basketball. subscribed
This aged well
Im coming back in 2020 after Luka is officially one of the best players in the leauge
Could you upload your podcasts to spotify?
It would be nice to hear it while driving
This aged very well
Sometimes I read these comments where people compare you to other TH-camrs. I get this feeling that they don’t really know who you are, they don’t know about your book, your podcast, your all-time player series, your self-created stats, etc ...
I don’t know what to do about it but it really annoys me for some reason 😂
(Best thing are the dudes talking about possible bias in these vids. Obviously everyone is biased but if you want to get close to an unbiased analysis, you probably have a good shot with the guy who’s written a book chapter about human’s biases)
yeah, imagine if he post his top 40 players of all time on here. man they'll be livid once they see reggie in top 40, bird, kobe and magic outside top 10, and kg in the top 10.
nice not like they have the basis to argue against it tho 😂 also, I have the feeling that he attracts more knowledgeable people than mainstream NBA TH-camrs, which is a good thing.
@@andygiang8944 Spoiler Alert: Magic was at #10...
So who is he really?
Who is he?
Great video! Loved everything about It. The only thing I would add is his Clutch Stats which are also at the top of the league.
it was proved today
This video is so much more insightful than the Ringer one
Yes Luka is the next GOAT
Sawyer Heckard but is he Larry bird with a 40 inch vertical
Let’s gooooo!!! Great video, as usual.
Bring a young Euro star into the NBA is a W
another fantastic video,really enjoyed it
I think Luka needs to develop his power game and continue to hone his craftiness. He will never have a first step to just blow by defenders but he can create enough for opportunities to absorb contact and finish which I don’t see him do enough. He def has the frame for it, now it just a matter of chiseling it out. I’m optimistic because he’s only 19yo and has plenty of time to develop on that end. If he doesn’t do that, then his ceiling will dramatically be reduced.
IVE ALWAYS LOVED THE SPURS, AND LOATHED THE MAVS, BUT WITH MY FAVORITE PLAYER OF ALL TIME ( MANU) NOW GONE, LUKA HAS BECOME MY NEW FAVORITE PLAYER OF ALL TIME AND ITS SAD.....BUT I ACTUALLY WATCH THE MAVS MORE THAN THE SPURS NOW
Totally agree. Never seen a rookie this skilled and crafty. Bright future for this kid.
Common Sense I saw him at a mavs game he is a stud like kukoc mixed with harden mixed with bozo the clown he is amazing
Loving these videos, Doncic is going to be a all-time great for sure!
10 years from now when Lukas on his way to being the statistical Goat i dont wanna hear any Lebron fans talking about "Nah bc Lebron played Defense" 🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️
If he remains healthy.. for sure Luka will finish his career with amazing numbers
holy shit this aged insanely well
Of course it aged well everyone who knew the game knew luka would be this good by the end of his career he's gonna be top 5 or even top 3 player ever bro mark my words
Finally the Luka Doncic video!! Love your analysis..Good job!!!
Bird was also very crafty his rookie year but he was also at least 3 years older when he was a rookie. Bird was better in most, if not every phase of the game.
I agree, for now. I'm a HUGE Bird fan, but I'd put 19-year-old Luka ahead of 19-year-old Larry. Luka was playing high-level pro ball at 15.
We'll see what Luka's play is like in 3-4 years. He has drive, ambition, and a strong work ethic. I'm looking forward to watching him develop.
When Luka reaches his prime, will he approach Larry Bird level skill and success? I don't know, but I sure hope so. That would be awesome to watch.
@@MSHkr
Work ethic?
We are halfway thru the season, and he's still chubby.
Please, he's not Bird yet, probably never.
@@dlxinfinite7098
'Chubby' is a useless metric, and an inaccurate description of Luka, even at the beginning of the season.
As far as work ethic, Luka has improved in all aspects of the game throughout his brief time in the NBA. That doesn't happen without hard work.
As shown in the video, at 19, he's already an elite player in several categories, close to James Harden (reigning MVP) in step-back 3-pointers.
He's already had 3 triple doubles.
My man Bird was a freshman/sophomore in college at 19. I believe he would have been able to compete in the NBA at that age, but I don't see him dominating as Luka has. There's no way to know for sure, and I haven't seen much video from that time of Bird's career, so that's just my educated guess.
Time will tell. I'm not saying he'll be as good as Larry Legend (my favorite player ever), but based upon his production and improvement so far, it's possible.
On point with research and great videos to go along with it what you're discussing. Subscribed.
Oh & Luka is 🔥 🔥 🔥
did i missed or you really didn't mention how realible he is on the clutch?
If you want to know why he doesn’t talk about that, there’s a chapter in his book called “Clutch play and late-game bias”
@@CultivateInward that seems like a better definition for clutch than single game winning shots or fourth quarters
Reliable
That's how good Luka is. His basics are good enough to make him great. Add those intangibles and he'll be MVP!
Luka is like anybody. Luka is Luka. And he is here to change the basketball.
Luka🔥🔥
I love your analysis in every video. The titles can be a bit off putting though lol. But I understand the reason why.
Your videos are so underrated!
5:58 Damn, i forgot how brutal Ben used to be with his adjectives. Good he became more respectful and professional later.
Would be interessting to see an update on this some time
Keep these videos up. They are very good and more unique then the dozens of NAB2k/discussion channels on TH-cam.
Great vid
These videos are great. So very insightful and detailed, you learn so much from them.
If you're ever at a loss for topics, I think it'd be great if you could go over team schemes and the styles/tempo/plays that that gives them the best chance at success.
Also something maybe comparing how styles and schemes have changed and/or are different from era to era.
Just a thought. Keep up the good work! :)
you should do giannis at some point he is the most unique player in the nba
Jokic is right there with Giannis
That GS game whip pass was when a mav.s team without DSJ/DJ/Barrea/ and no KP,Wright, Curry , Boban etc beat them w/o Curry the worst loss theyd had in 12 seasons. We resigned that entire roster. Luka blew KD out that night. Klay,Iggy,KD they were hopeless that night. Luka was mad about tanking. He will be a monster and can close strong at the rim and does it in practice but in games last year got ZERO love from the ref.s. He blocked Lebron james twice on the same play and made LJ so mad he went off and played way beyond his season stats and then got the groin pull the next game.
8:42 And he was getting buzz for mvp a later... yeah, reality often crush predictions.
Great video, great work put in finding all these correct videos. Two thumbs up.
He is a mini Larry Bird playing the guard position.
He's more like a white LeBron
Jerm not even close
He's looking a lot more athletic this season. Losing weight and gaining it back as muscle and speed is pretty great.
Doncic is an inspiration for non-athletic basketball players who aspire to be in pro-basketball someday. You don't need to excel on razzle-dazzle dribbling moves like those of Curry and Kyrie, or be a rim rocker like slam dunk champions. Just learn and master the basics of basketball would be enough.
Dennis Blancaflor yea and be 6ft8 . Better off learning how to be an elite shooter , pass and dribble if your average sized . Curry and Trae Young are the blueprint for the Everyman .
No Curry and Kyrie and Trae Young are an inspiration for non athletic basketball players. Luka doncic is 6'8, big body and a good dunker with decent speed can block shots too. Watch his dunk vs phoenix where he outsprints ayton and ariza and throws down a big dunk. Or against denver where he dunked on millsap and plumlee. Or watch his block on trae young
Whatever you say
@@DennisBlancaflor How can you say Curry is athletic but doncic isnt? Its like you dont even watch them play
@@pcs54 not going to engage in this argument. Go suit yourself who's athletic or not. Enjoy the game
The only thing that I could add is that Luka has quite a handle for somebody his size. A forward sized player who handles the ball like a point guard. That is rare. In fact, I cannot think of anybody like that outside of Magic Johnson. Or perhaps I'm overlooking somebody.
Kermit T. Frog Lebron lol
I was watching this with captions and his name was Luke Don Church and I can't unsee it now
LOL....You bastard!...now I can't unsee it
This video has aged very well
Good analysis. Luka is going to be amazing. He’s having the greatest roomie season ever I’d go as far as to say.
Ben Simmons recorded the highest number of triple doubles of any rookie in NBA history.
Michael Jordan, Wilt, Bird, etc all had better rookie seasons
nah not Bird. Luka has a way better all around game than him and he’s younger. Jordan vs Luka is debatable and Wilt probably is better than Luka but that was a different time.
Stalker Bleach but bird did have a better rookie season...Celtics were 2nd to last in the NBA the year b4 & he carried them to the number 1 seed in the NBA as the main option on better shooting splits as well
@@movementman9777 Luka has literally 0 argument over the people I mentioned for best rookie year of all-time. Look at their rookie stats and advanced metrics, and it becomes apparent.
Your channel growth has been insane man for such a young channel keep it up love these vids
its blasphemy calling him the nexxt legend holy shit.
HE ALREADY IS A LEGEND!
No. Already being a legend means that, if he never played another game, he'd be mentioned with the greats. He needs at least another decade of being even better than he is to be a legend. He's very promising, but not a legend quite yet.
Hey, i loved your website and your style of analysis on Nate Duncans podcast. Im sure a lot of people, myself included, would love to see your podcast on spotify!
Do a Zion Williamson breakdown
Nah
no wait til he's really played in the nba
Wait till he prove he can play ball against pro's....
zeus hualde he is already the best ball player in the world everybody agrees. No need to wait until after the draft to analyze him
The Sports Warehouse this is a whiteman hype zone...no room for Zion The Lion 🦁.
where does jokic rank among passers for you?
I'm planning a video on Jokic...and I'd like to do one on top passers, which will include Jokic.
thats great look forward to it, i wonder if i can guess the rest of your schedule im like 4/9 true guessing % right now
I really appreciate this detailed and well-balanced analysis of Luka's rookie year. Looking forward to seeing how he develops into next season, especially with Dirk's retirement and the acquisition of Porzingis. Depending on how things pan out, I think we could see a MUCH better showing by the Mavs in the '19-'20 season.
Do one on flamin jake layman
Luka gonna be the GOAT one day soon ! That youngin got talent like no other
Luka is about to average 27, 8 and 8
Give him 3 years
I say 22.6.7
whoops. he averaged 28.8, 9.4 and 8.8. my bad
Now I understand why Dirk wanted his last season before retirement!
Wanted to see first sign this kid and future of Mavs.
Well done Mavs you might have found a decent player that have potential to cover what Dirk left.
Big shoes to fit but lets cross finger and luka gets there.
