"cherry picking stats" when the entire argument of Luka detectors generally revolves around making statements like "but if you look at player X's 3pt% since Dec 1 and APG since Feb 14 he's got a case!"

I also find that hypocritical. Get mad at cherry picking stats and then turn around and cherry pick dates to justify your guy.

Look, it's been obvious Luka hasn't been a bust

but it's disingenuous to Cuban b that Trae's development has progressed rapidly and to continue to operate in assessing him off of what he did when he first started vs to where he's improved now is pretty self serving


tbh this has all the beginnings of a new stan war on the horizon, which is fine I guess

but don't be so biased to the point you're in a different reality :manny:

No bias from me personally. I've never stated any hatred for Trae in any thread. Both sides have showed however a lack of objectivity from calling Trae, Trae Fredette and calling Luka, Tyreke Doncic. Trae has been spectacular since January but let's not act like Luka has been any less.

You literally just called out a post with an image showing objective data in Doncic's favor as "cherry picking stats" to run with a "narrative"

And then you go on just 1 post later talking about:
Trae has been better since the all star break, if u wanna hold the slow start against him, fine :yeshrug:

:lolwtf:


Sounds like you just don't like Doncic. Most of the Doncic detractors here just racebait or do exactly what you accusing that graphic of doing. "Cherry picked stats" during convenient timeframes and circumstances.

You Trae stans want to ignore PPG, league leading clutch FG%, rebounds, steals, blocks, defense, team wins, value over replacement player, size advantage being 6'8 220lbs point forward over the course of the ENTIRE season, including those little recent adjusted windows of the past couple months you guys love so much and just focus on PPG, APG, 3pt%, and FT% over a 1.5 month sample size to close out the year.

Talk about a narrative :mjlol:

The biggest agenda this season wasn't the white media pushing Luka, it was the Dhalsim levels of reaching and bias Trae stans were doing to put him in the same convo.

They should rename the award to Rookie Of The Two Months and give it to Trae. Even though generally across the board, Doncic is still better.

They won't like this. January 1 doesn't fit their narrative. They'd prefer we only looked at the stats since February 13th at 7:43pm EST.

Since then, Trae has the most Assists Per Game on Wednesday evening games when wearing a green shirt walking into the arena and it's cooler than 57 degrees outside.

the graphic posted earlier was a shytty transparent attempt to put out a narrative with all sorts of obscure state to skew things in Doncic favor.

"Race baiting" breh, really? :mjlol:

you sound JUST like a cac
If you're Black(which I highly doubt) you need to get the fukk outta your feelings.

Pointing out that Trae has played better overall than Luka since the all star break is a much better assessment than digging deep in the crates for some obscure metrics to bolster a bullshyt argument. Like breh pointed out earlier, that stupid ass graphic had usage percentage on there :mjlol:

STRONG avi to post correlation btw :pachaha:

10 years ago I was at the bar cheering the hell out of Steph as he took on Kansas. I loved his game. :usure:

I liked Trae's game in college too, but I still don't think it translates to the pros the way Steph's does. One of my issues with Trae is that he doesn't have the Steph's athleticism or Steph's ability to score at the basket.

I did think think Tyreke was gonna be good too though. :lupe:




:dahell: I say one word about Doncic in there? I was talking about JJJ. :heh:

(Doncic is better than Trae though :umad:)
My bad bro and naw, Trae >>>> Luka. Facts!

If it's part of the season we're supposed to hold it against him

WHICH.IS.FINE :gucci:


NOBODY is denying Luka has had the better overall season :manny:


But if nikkas point out "hey, Trae been balling and he's looking a lot better :ehh:"
the special Doncic defense forces mobilize on some "STOP, LUKA STILL BETTER :damn:"
Overall season, yes :yeshrug:
Right this second? Not so much
