I don't know how all these scouts missed this. I am an amateur analyst and I watched Luka play four games in Real and I was convinced he was the safest pick in that draft class. I was sold on his playmaking from the first game. That isn't something that goes away and a good playmaker can open up a ton of other options on the offensive end. I also saw him as a super young player with a high ceiling for development. I was shocked to hear some analysts talk like he was an older player who had reached his peak already. I was sitting there like, this guy is within a year of the one-and-done kids, how is he at his peak? He also played in a professional league for two years, won a championship and represented his nation, so no stranger to big moments. Sometimes I swear the sports media is the biggest example of group-think outside of modern American politics.

[@raginasiangaming910]

@Max I'm going to have to disagree. The Suns took Ayton over him, even though they didn't have a solid PG. The Hawks traded Luka for Trey Young. Not saying Trey isn't a good player, but his upside is just less as a smaller guard. We won't know about the others since the Mavs were set on him from the start.

[@timocruz510]

@@raginasiangaming910 Sure, but they also had Devin Booker on the wing and Luka is a bit on the taller side for a PG. I at least understood why the Suns picked Ayton (fit and AU connection) but the Kings just went full Kings when they took Bagley. Imagine them rn w Luka. GOAT offence.

[@raginasiangaming910]

@timocruz510 well yeah, nothing is worse than the Kings. I think the Suns made a mistake, but I think its more reasonable. I do stand by the statement that NBA teams aren't great at scouting Europe.

He’s 6’7 playing the point which automatically gives him an advantage over smaller defenders.

if you look at the guys who were underestimating Luka's talent before he played in the NBA, they are all what you can say media goons. Every player, ex player and as Broussard said scout, knew what this kid was all about, players know that when a 18 years old wins the Euro Legue MVP of the finals you're dealing with prodigy kind of stuff. He just needs to get better defensively and he'll become a champion with the right peaces for sure.

[@leopoldlongo8358]

[@Exhibit_C_me]

This video proves that these sports analyst don't know what the f*** they talking about. They rip you until some good then they change it up like they been on ya side the whole time smh. 💯

[@nandeiras82]

i saw him in Spain winning important games in Spanish Liga and Europe Competition with 16-17 years old, all we said this guy is special, the choosen one, but this analyst for sure never saw a game outside NBA.... no professionals

A wise man once said, "A great athlete will give the crowd oohs and ahhs, but a great basketball player will win you games." That's who Luka Doncic is, a great basketball player. Just how great he becomes will be a factor of time played, injuries sustained and their effects on his overall play, and his work ethic and desire to develop, and his team and individual results. He's easily the most accomplished European player to enter the league, especially at his age. People queried Larry Bird's athletic ability before he came into the league, and he showed that a slow white guy who could hardly get off the hardwood could still impact the game in a multitude of ways, based off his intelligence, and skill set. I'm not saying that Doncic is the next coming of Larry Bird, at least not until he starts winning championships. I do think that with Kristaps Porzingis (assuming that KP is healthy) are going to be a great duo for the Mavs, and with the right pieces around them, they will be a force to be reckoned with in the West for the next decade if they stay together.

Well done, Trent!

[@bikibaws]

joe smith, olowokandi, marcus fizer, tim thomas, desmond mason, jason richardson, josh and jr smith, thomas robinson, andrew wiggins all were praised and deemed future superstars or legends before they were drafted and early in their careers but all had/having forgettable to mediocre ok careers. meanwhile giraffe level athletes dirk tim duncan ginobili and pau gasol became central or key pieces of championship teams.

[@jordantan554]

I just watched him drop a 42 point triple double. These clowns... 🤣🤣🤣

[@carloreid2659]

He literally proved everyone wrong including me but I did want him to go to the sun's with the number one pick with booker but I honestly know he was gonna be this good

[@edubvb5193]

"I don't believe he's a lottery pick" SOMEONE FIRE THAT MAN

[@aarontan2197]

Look at 4:18 , even worse

[@edubvb5193]

@@aarontan2197 I'm from Spain I saw Luka play before he went to the NBA and I was amazed when they passed on him with the 1st pick let alone the second. Analysts really forget that IQ and fundamentals are more valuable to the game than just pure athlethicism

[@ajdwensart2606]

Lol look the boy now dominating everyone,, damn triple double every game lol ,, Don Luka will be the face of NBA soon, and he’s from Europe :)

[@gulinp1]

" i don't give a damn about kid in Europe " .... 2 years later one is averaging 30 points triple double and other is juicing on steroids. It's baffling that SA Smith still has job.

[@Marcelo_y_la_ctm]

I've seen this video like 20 times already, music to my ears

[@maninblack9850]

Since when has lack of athleticism stopped highly skilled, high IQ players? Its like these idiot "experts" forgot about Bird, Duncan, Nash, Stockton, Nowitzki, etc.... And Lukas speed and hops is fine since He's got plenty of size at 6'7 - 6'8. High IQ and skills will always prevail over just athleticism in basketball. Duh.

[@matthewforrest8761]

to be fair, despite all of them being wrong initially, most of them admitted that they were wrong about him once the season started. Nothing wrong with changing your opinion, or getting a call wrong. Admitting it is hard to most people who make predictions for a living.

[@hristijandimitrovski8664]

No, they just forget ehat they were saying before. That is hypocrisy.

[@stocksguy4565]

27/9/9 this season so far. Suck on that haters.

[@agffga8757]

I watch NBA and eruropean basketball, no college ball. I had huge expectations when for Ayton when I discovered he was rated higher than Doncic. I thought there was no way Doncic wasn't gonna be first pick so if that guy was rated higher he must have special special. It was so clear Doncic was a real deal to anyone who followed him.

[@bradypeterson7593]

“Not a lottery pick” basketball takes for him are invalid and he’s banned for talking basketball for a year where he can state his claim for reinstatement

[@toteispoe4]

Banned for life

[@TheDonkeyFLOPPER]

Ironically, when dirk came up the bigs down low were physical. The league isn’t as physical anymore and Luka’s game doesn’t need to be played that way. He’s doing all the right things. He’s putting on muscle and slimming down. I said halfway through last season, that he just needed one year to see what playing in the nba to make his adjustments. Luka will be running for mvp in no more than 5 years

[@tuomaskallio5766]

Will cain was like the only guy who was right

[@itiswhatitis9923]

Most of these scouts are freaking tools! At the end of the day athleticism is always a bonus, Raw basketball skill is always gonna get you through games! Yes, Luka ain’t the quickest or the strongest, but the boy got High basketball IQ, and can straight up play! Plain and simple, the eye test is real gentlemen and he passes it! Respect to Luka From NY! ✊

Who was that scout who said Luka is a combination of Nash and Bird? He needs to replace these clowns on TV.

[@devydean1975]

Anyone here after he just had a historic 60-21-10 performance? Unreal how wrong they were lol
