:rocky:This some bullshyt.

You idiotic box score watchers keep making yaselves look like idiots. I told ya'll last year before the draft that Tatum was better than Fultz. But nikkas didn't wanna listen cause they only look at stats. You clowns can't watch the games and tell who has more talent and ability.

Just wait till Zach Lavine gets healthy. He's got top 5-10 player in the NBA ability in his prime. Devin Booker on the other hand is a fringe all-star who is in the 20-25 range of NBA players in his prime.

Zach Lavine is much better than Devin Booker. They're not even remotely in the same universe when it comes to talent and ability.

Matcing the offer is gonna make Zach feel like he's the best player on that Bulls team when he's not. And that matters more because Lavine is a selfish player with average basketball IQ and a below average passer already..

:dahell: who the fukk is better than him on that team? And I better not hear you say that cac they drafted last year.

Zach Lavine is EASILY the best player on that team. 2nd best player in Chanler Hutchinson. Hopefully the Bulls match the Kings deal cause I wanna see Lavine and Hutchinson team up. They can a poor man's version of Jordan and Pippen.

Zach Lavine has never been on the worst team in the NBA and been fed touches like crazy to put up empty stats. Last time he was healthy, he was the 3rd option on the T-Wolves. Put a healthy Zach Lavine in Devin Booker's shoes and he puts up even better numbers with far better team success.

I judge players based on their skill and ability NOT stats. Why? Because stats are as much a product of your CIRCUMSTANCE as it is your ability. Devin Booker's circumstance has allowed him to put up those empty stats. His ability is not superior to a healthy Zach Lavine.

Zach Lavine >>> Devin Booker (based on skill and ability)

Lavine's future is a 6th man at best. Zach Lavine is only good a dunking. Booker is better than Lavine at everything else.

Booker's main flaw is he is bad on defense but he does show effort. Lavine is fukking awful on defense and doesn't take it serious. He definitely will not care now that he just got paid.

LaVine on the Suns would still be the worst team in the league so what would Zach’s stats on that team be?

Nope. Lavine is more skilled as well as being more athletic. Lavine is a better shooter, ball-handler, and passer. He's also way more athletic. Which gives him a far higher ceiling.

A healthy Zach Lavine is averaging 30ppg with ease. He's basically a 6'5" T-Mac in my eyes.

You guys are such idiots.

I can't wait for Lavine is dominate this year and make me look like a genius. Sorta like how Jayson Tatum dominated last year and made me look genius for my draft prediction.

Zach Lavine is a 30/5/6 player easily on the Suns. And they would be better than last place in the NBA. They wouldn't be a playoff team cause they lack talent but they would be better than WORST. Best believe.

I don’t think you can question Zach’s effort. He puts forth major effort for someone who isn’t a basketball player.

I fukks with Lavine, if he can gets 85-90% of his athleticism back. When was the last time Kings had a high flyer? Gerald Wallace?

Aren't you the same idiot that said he wouldn't play in the NBA. Just shut up accept the fact you were wrong about Zach.

He's already proven to be way better than you ever thought he would be.

Wrong. Booker has a much better midrange game, is a superior ball handler, passer, is a superior post player. Booker is also a superior isolation and P&R player.

Also, Fultz will ball out next year and Chandler Hutchinson is NOT better than Lauri Markannen.
