Great observation sir! 💯

Yeah I was talking to my friend while we watched this, I think that's his biggest asset, he's utterly unpredictable.

Luka and Ja made the NBA great again, but that's the point. Ja won't jump like that in 10 years, Luka will keep doing what he does for 20? (hopefully)

@@r000ty Enter LeBron James, they said that in 2015 and said he was done then won the chip the next year. Athletic ability is predicated on health and maintaining the preparation of your body. Luka reminds me of Harden, but like Harden staying in shape in top shape will be his only Achilles heel.

@@BigBen1994 harden was always in tip top shape before his hamstring injury.

@@Mark-oe1df You didn't see when he was looking like Kendrick Perkins brother before he got traded to the Nets ?

@@BigBen1994 LeBron has so much juice in his veins that the NBA doesn't even dare to drug test him

Totally agree. For example in 3:53 , I love these plays of Luka a lot, and are the ones no one is talking about. Not a flashy finish, but he is a master controlling and delaying his last steps before the bucket, in addition with the fakes is what makes him so unpredictable. Doing like that gives him enough time to see what is going on with the defense and at the last moment he decides to shoot the ball, or kick the ball out to a teammate in a better position. This guy's gonna be one of the greatest.

In Europe we have a smaller packet and the players have 10 minutes instead of 12, so for Luka nba is slower and the games are longer. So he can use his European experience

Because most people think Athleticism in basketball= jump good.

Luka is not athletic… Reggie Jackson well fuck Russell Westbrook are both more athletic at their old age than luka. Luka seems like he has speed because he understands pace. Difference.

He is strong not Athletic. Lebron is both. As Lebrons Athletic ability fades he is still strong and can bully ball.

Well, consider the fact he's "blowing by" ppl like Adams. I'm a big Adams fan, but that dude is slow in these terms. Or if you prefer analogies... "A turtle is faster than a snail but that doesn't make the turtle faster than the rabbit."

On the defensive side he is slow footed

He and Kobe were such good friends. Remember, Kobe was the only one who talked smack to him, in Slovenian.

@@markwisniewski2227 Greatness recognizes Greatness

@Alejandro Gjezi he's played with grown men since he was 16 and plays like this. Can't imagine how he'll do when he's a coach

I love both of them, but it seems to me their play style is completely different. Yes they both had skills, but Kobe was all about athleticism, Luka is more about his crazy court vision and passing. They are both amazing but just in a different way.

@@LeeeWai yeah but the vibe they're giving is almost very similar to me: of someone able to do things none else can, skillwise. They put on a show every time they step on the court

I believe you refer to slow motion Luka is anything but calm, which his multiple technical fouls support.

If that was the case he'd be past the first round by now

@@joeltaylor2321 why is that so? you do realize that MJ for example was a first round exit in his first 4 seasons? Look at his legacy now though...

@Joel Taylor He's 23 bro he's got time

@@joeltaylor2321 aged poorly

@@KingEzekio yea my fault bro Luka>Kobe and Bron all time ☺️☺️☺️

He’s got great hang time. Can just float in the air longer than the other players. If you watch closely they fall back to the ground before he does. Love watching him play

@@Theo973 I'd say that is not his hang time. He is simply cheating the defenders delaying his last step and faking his jump. In this way the defender take off before he does. And when he sees the defender up in the air Luka can do whatever he wants.

Exactly

You just broke the matrix

then you wouldn’t be the only one 🤜🏾🤛🏾

Same!

Luka is amazing hope he doesn’t end up like Jayson Tatum

people have a hyperlimited definition of athleticism that basically just means “jump high and look attractive”. the definition people use is so meaningless that they can make the following kind of argument: “[insert name of top 5 player of a popular sport] isn’t athletic.” Messi isn’t athletic, Doncic isn’t athletic, etc. it’s literally insane. if an athlete is a person that performs athletics and athletics are a competitive activity that uses the body to a significant degree to accomplish a specific task, then how can some of the best people at the sport be unathletic. how can a person with absurd athletic results be unathletic? literally it’s about whether they think someone looks sexy. unironically. balance never counts, endurance never counts, coordination never counts, vision never counts, reflexes sometimes count and strength sometimes count. only jump high run fast always count. who knows why

@@barnabyssjones I don't know if it's about attractiveness although maybe that plays a part if someone is muscular or whatever. I think they mean it in terms of how fast and fluid someone moves. I think speed is the key factor. Someone like Michael Jordan would be the pinnacle of athleticism. Can jump high, is very fast, has quick reflexes and quick bursts of energy.. To me it's just a different form of athleticism. This guy has it in a very well structured format that's super fluid.. He might not be as athletic as someone like Jordan, but he is certainly athletic to me.

i never knew he was bad at ft's

@@onarfyt he's subpar. In the low 70s I believe. He definitely isn't nearly as good at the FT line as he is everywhere else

Just ask Nick Anderson. Deadly 3pt shooter missed some clutch free throws in the finals, after that his FT percentage dropped to Shaq levels.

@@Scottdvz fr, that was crazy

He has and still didn’t win. Giannis did then did it again the next year but the team was only a 5-6 seed

@@PlhPatrick he was never 80 percent free throw.

@@ozzee5094 he said around 80%, Luka shot 76% while attempting the second most free throws, hitting 7 of 9.2 per game

@@PlhPatrick the best he shot is 75.8 percent from free throws. That’s not around 80 percent. That’s some Lebron type free throw shooting

@@ozzee5094 obviously you haven’t taken any statistics classes. On a high usage it’s a .07% difference. That’s less than the .11% chance that a ball goes through the hoop and pops back out (I know you still get the point), I’m just letting you know it’s statistically imperceptible esp va someone taking 5-6 ft a game. It’s called a bell curve with a logarithmic acline. The only time that would not be considered around (within 5.6%) would be if a player takes less than 5 free throws a game. All these stats can be misleading, but basic statistical analysis will show how close 76% or 75.7 which rounds to 76% is the absolute definition of around 80% when taking more than 7 free throws a game. There are plenty of studies that prove this in astrophysics, engineering, even basic college math.

@@michaelhaydenbell because the title is Luka being better then your favorite player

Exactly my first thought when I read the title! Nevertheless Luka is an awesome player.

Back 3 months later Omg 🤣

hahah

@@no12578 what kind of qustion is that? Ask the refs

You might not see it but some players have more privileges than others in terms of getting fouls and getting fouled.2020 playoffs vs Clippers is a perfect example when Morris and company were deliberately trying to cripple Luka and also used racial slurs "btch a.s white boi". And nba didn't do squat about it.But immagine if some European player was to call LJ nig.. how long his NBA career would last.We can also noticeably see how Lebron complains to refs and gets away with it while others players get technicals for such behavior.Lastly you can see some clips on ytoube by some NBA players on how Kobe was getting more calls cause of his name.Some players just have a bit more rights than others.

@@bubaba8938 worded it perfectly🙏

40ppg!💯%

Agree with you man, the most complete player in the NBA, his fundamontals and his IQ are just incredible

kyrie or durant?

@@Mark-oe1df Durant is a better scorer definetly but i'm not sure if more versatile, Luka is better forcing the defenses to open and has great vision so he's always open for a pass to one of his team members, Durant on the other hand is a pure scorer and far better shooter than Luka but he doesn't move all the pace of the play most of the time. Kyrie had some good years and has been one of most skilled shooting guards i've ever seen but he is not a point guard like Luka and definetly not as proficient scorer as he is.

@@francesccampos1343 This ain't about being a pg. Kyrie and KD both more versatile scorers.

@@francesccampos1343 You don't get 4 scoring titles by not being a versatile scorer. Kyrie is literally one of the most skilled players we have ever seen.

Hes getting exposed, cant guard anybody.

@@hubster4477 Well most NBA players can't guard PGs and SGs 1 on 1. Luka is actually decent defensively as of late, it's just really tiring when you carry most of the load offensively.

@@Mrjvc163 so its a wash when he scores 40, because the guy hes guarding is scoring a lot.

@@hubster4477 doesn't work like that. That's why you play defense as a team. If you do your schemes properly you won't get caught in a bad matchup situation as often like how they adjusted in the Suns series.

@@Mrjvc163 sorry, the game is too spread out now, its all one on one or finding the open 3 pointer.

Like 50% Bird, better handles worse shooting.

@@acpliego you’re right

@@acpliego I'd give the edge to Bird in terms of IQ as well

@@sandlotscout6358 Why ? Luka with higher usage rating is always making right play he have better court view and hes better passer than Bird

You have lost your effen mind..

His mid range is much better than long and his vision/passing is his most outstanding ability

naaaah, this is the perfect team for him. This is his third playoff with Dallas this year, and he probably will battle like mad this playoffs. Third charm this year.

@@Drlebt I meant no disrespect Dallas fan. I really respect the Mavs. But yeah.. If he had a team at the calibre of some of the recent championship winning teams is what i meant. I think the Mavs can do damage in the playoffs if they stay healthy tho. Definitely a dark horse team.

luka with the bucks would be devastating , he would fit perfectly in my opinion , on what team u see him better?

@@lorenzom4074 Ouffff... with the bucks would be Nasty. I think the same. By the way the player on your profile pic really pissed me off this last weekend lol

@@MartyLeonXIIIGaming ahahah lets goo milannn 💪

Luka playing better than Lebron this year, look at team records.

I'm the biggest Luka fan, but one Larry Joe Bird was the greatest white player of all time and the first player I would take in my starting five.

@@MrRukiddin well Luka is only 22 as well

I mean Jokic is better today. But Doncic is a bigger talent I think

@@roronoazoro-136 agreed jokic in my opinion is probably the best player in the league….

Drazen Petrovich was good also before he passed away unfortunately
