I never said he was a scrub. He will make multiple all star games but again, luka will win multiple mvps and be in the playoffs. Atlanta are 2 years away from being a playoff team. Phoenix, Sacramento and Atlanta was crazy for not drafting buddy


My brother I wasn’t saying that you did I’m just saying they got an all star type pg and another potential player while he may not be Luka he isn’t that far off to me.

like I said I’m not going to knock the Suns or the hawks....also let’s remember the hawks are missing Collins also but if they get another lottery pick the hawks may be trending into a potential great situation....

luka is an mvp type but I don’t see why young can’t become that also eventually.

I would be disingenuous if I was to say I thought Ayton wasn’t the top pick just like I would be if I didn’t say I was surprised the kings didn’t take luka seemed like a perfect match since to me Ayton was number 1.

Even with Collins they're 2 years away from making the playoffs.

Honestly we know they could of made some shortsighted moves to Be a playoff team...if they score a lottery pick and make the right choice I can see them in the playoffs as soon as next season health dependent of course...but they are trending in the right direction and to me rebuilding the right way...

Mad beef, not surprised

If Luka were a Croat, you'd have a point. But Luka has Serbian roots and therefore Vlade had a very good position to take Luka.

As far as Phoenix goes, Kokoshkov wanted Luka, he won the Euro championship with the kid. But his hands were tied, Ayton was the pick from the start.

He does have a point, it goes even deeper.

Within Serbia, the Doncic's come from Kosovo. Serbia got kicked out of Kosovo.

nikkas acting like the Kings wouldn’t have ruined Luka anyway. :unimpressed:

what has the organization done right in the last few years? Outside of trading Cousins.
