The next best player in the league.

Its not even close to me at this point. Dude is a demi-god. Everybody struggling except the guy with probably the biggest offensive bag in nba history.

I truly think the NBA has mislabeled Steph. He's a suped up miniature Larry Bird.

He's a true PG but like Bird, doesn't need a lot of touches.

Movement maestro

Range and touch

HOF work ethic

Make everyone better around him

Even if he's not a good defender due to lack of tools, his defensive feel for the game is excellent like Bird.

Just an impossible cover

Luka is nothing like Bird. Luka is a more skilled poor man's LeBron James

I know Reggie Miller is quite awful to listen to

But Doris Burke is by far the worst. You are multi-billion dollar organization, you can't have people with the lisp commenting on the match for two straight hours. The Nets Hawks game had two cacs with that horrible vernacular at the same time:

"He'sh been doing great thingsh from lasht year. That'sh a shecond pershonal fawl on the Netsh"

fukking hysterical, hire some people who can speak. There must be some minimum requirements for the job besides having the knowledge about the game.

Why cant Steph be Steph and Luka be Luka? Yall nikkas is on some crazy shyt with all these player comparisons in the nba. None of these 4 guys play like each other at all. You sound dumb.

Everyone is built off of everyone. Sure, Steph is Steph as Kobe is Kobe, Bron is Bron, MJ is MJ but everyone is built off of another prototype that we seen before. They just add their own element and style.

Steph is a modern Bird, just in mini form with boosted attributes. Just think if Bird had modern training and medicine in his day.

MJ was built off of the David Thompson prototype. Even he said he modeled his game after Thompson.

While Luka has modeled his game after Bron and Harden, the more you watch him, you see a lot of Bron on both ends. He just don't have that once in a lifetime athletic ability and nowhere close. He has acceleration and deceleration adv with tremendous strength, balance, and body control like Harden but as explosive as a young Harden. His game and impact on the game is modeled as a vet LeBron.

The reason why it matters is because the NBA is an impact game. It's not a stats game. That's why the triple double feels watered down because it's not as impactful as it would seem when you read about Oscar Robertson
