Official Luka Doncic Will Be A Bust Thread

[Squirrel from Meteor Man]

Why are you saying FG% when that's far more impressive than padding rebound stats?

Who’s padding rebound stats? Defenses are already geared to stop Trae Young, and he’s small first year guard so his field goal percentage will naturally be lower. Doncic has been left completely wide open on a lot shots and to his credit he makes them. Trae doesn’t get those same looks.

Nobody is saying he’s not nice, but he’s the best can’t miss prospect since Lebron with no weaknesses according to ESPN. I have to hold him to the same standard.

Have you watched a Hawks game?

The lie I was referring to was "Doncic being left completely wide open on a lot of shots"
You just made that up

Your opinion on Barnes' effect on Luka's play is false

Why has he been much better with the return of Barnes? Its can't be false, we see the correlation. Now Barnes hasn't benefitted from Doncic like that but Doncic has because of Barnes

Who cares what ESPN thinks? No serious bball fan seriously think he is LeBron level....maybe a few cacs but thats it

Dude can play flat out....like i been saying he a bigger Brandon Roy or a rich man's Turkoglu.

He could make AS team a couple times but he will never be an All Pro but at this point any bust talk is kinda just pointless hating for hating sake

That's my ROTY

Trae & Luka are both going to be very nice. I think this draft is going to work out for both teams. Probably moreso the Hawks because they will get another top 10 pick. Yeah the media over did it on Luka, but dude is seriously balling as a rook

anyone who takes the ball out of wesley matthews hands is making the mavs better overall

Man, if Doncic is a bust then I don't know what that makes Bagley.

Marvin Bagley III barely showing any flashes as a #2 pick yet.

People really thought Bagley should've went #1 too...

I'm not saying he's bad or anything, but Wendell Carter is looking better at everything

I definitely agree, and he’s actually doing a lot better than I thought especially with his lack of speed. He’s a great pick up in Dallas and he will be an All-Star in a few years absolutely. Trae is on the same path but he is bigger box office IMO. Once he gets stronger he’s going to be a problem.
