Official Luka Doncic Will Be A Bust Thread

[livindajetlife]

I want all the smoke. Folks on here and ESPN talking about that was the worst draft trade of all time like they already know Luka will be the next Dirk



Nah I’ll just catch highlights of him getting drugged every night



Our prayers are already answered. Travis Schlenk is building the next GSW



Luka: less than 14PPG
getting dominated every night
Going back to Europe in a few years



He just trying to make him feel comfortable








I want my daps and reps throughout the years

Less that 14 in his rookie season is a bust? Oh Y’all Trollin Trollin

Why would you do this breh!??!

Delete this fukking thread! Hawks fans have no reason to talk trash or invite bad luck to the franchise. Let brother Trae cook in peace. Who cares what Doncic does... if he busts it's whatever. We'll win with the pick. If not, it's also whatever.

We are not a franchise that's in a position to gloat prematurely.

Season hasn't even started yet. I'm truly

Top 5 "Common Sense" Coli post.

I'm not rooting for Doncic AT ALL and his hype rubs me the wrong way for some reason. So, I'm no stan.

But OP is openly bringing such negative energy his way with this post. Yikes.

Like...I'm a fukking Knick fan and Knox has all of us hype but I'd be damned if one of the Knicks Coli regulars created a thread like this about Knox being the second coming and everyone who passed on him will be looking foolish.

fukk that...we keep optimism in our Knicks thread.

Luka was getting comparisons to Harden and pre knee injury B Roy.

Aint no one say MJ or Kobe or Alltime level

He'll be fine...not sure if he'll ever be top 20 but at worst he's a bigger Dragic who is an above average starter who is a hair below Allstar level

I only believe in hating on my own team's players because energy is cyclical, but I respect this shyt right here

@staticshock yal drafted the doodoo head lightskin speedy claxton atlanta is a circus of deplorables watch vince carter be the best player on your team this year

 

[KingJay]

I think he's got less upside than people think, but he's got a pretty high floor with his versatility, IQ, feel, etc. I think the odds of him being a bust are very very low

 

[MF budz]

And that short little fakkit gae young aont gonna do shyt.

 

[The G.O.D II]

Let’s see

One corner you got an undersized PG who has poor athleticism, shot selection, can’t defend, and looks like a lost Debarge child. Struggled mightily against Sexton and players in the summer league

Another corner you got a 6’8 ball handler who can score, pass, and proved himself with Real Madrid leading his squad to the euro championship. Has won ever award over there

Who sounds more like a bust on paper?

 

[Collateral]

You’d think these franchises would learn from drafting these European cac nikkas so high. Luka will be better than Trae though. It’s clear as day. ATL think they got their Steph Curry

All the negatives you listed for Trae apply to Luka as well minus Luka having size to him. I do agree though that Trae does have high bust potential.

I agree with the above post in that Luka will have a very high floor, I just don't believe his ceiling is that high. I don't see future MVP potential as some painted him as but could see him making some all-star teams.

I was calling Trae a bust before it was cool. I just don't trust anyone who has to work that hard to get his shot against NCAA comp and can do NOTHING around the rim.

I think he's got less upside than people think, but he's got a pretty high floor with his versatility, IQ, feel, etc. I think the odds of him being a bust are very very low

This. Luka doesn't feel like a top pick to me at all, but he also doesn't feel like a bust.

Size is everything in the NBA though. The same attributes that would make someone a questionable NBA player at 6'3" could make them a starter at 6'8".

 

[No Hook]

Another hot take on thecoli

 

[Squirrel from Meteor Man]

I’m all in on this

Let’s quote for posterity:
ESPN saying he has no weaknesses and his ceiling is higher than any other player in his class

Dirk saying he’s got the best vision he’s ever seen (this would include former teammate and one of the best point guard ever Jason Kidd, and Lebron James)

Multiple media sites putting him in the Top 100 players despite not playing a game

 

[Squirrel from Meteor Man]

Smh.... Luka will be soild. Probably will take him some time to adjust like Dirk did but he will be okay ..

Trae Young

Luka and Collin Sexton will be better than him.

NO. He gets no adjustment period. Every scout and personality high on him says he’s nba ready out the gate and one of the most mature players they’ve seen. He’s already a top 100 player, so he needs to perform out the gate.

Trae didn’t even get to have a bad summer league, no way in hell I’m giving this European a pass

 

[pete clemenza]

I hope he's not a bust at all but I hate how they're 'crowning' him so early already. Also comments like, "Outside of Luka Doncic, (insert player) could be the best guard in the draft"

Hold the fukk up a minute and lets see him ball out first

Breh i respect you b/c you an OG but fukk outta here with that. It's ok for young ATL nikkaz to pop off occasionally, that humble, quiet ATL shyt was for the SOHH OGs breh, it's a different ball game on The Coli. ATL nikkaz talk shyt IRL breh, let it be
