It's more about him performing at a reasonably steady level rather than expecting absolute consistency. You are 100% right about THJ

He is not a star in that way. The media does not recognize it, because he is a chubby, slow dude who does not speak English well…with an unpretty game. He is not a household name…only fans of the sport have heard of him. The media knows what a star is..because they create them..and he is not it. THAT is why they don’t ‘recognize’ him.

@@Brando90198 You guys listen to the media too much and not watch. Stats wise the guy has also improved in 3 of the last 4 seasons and btw, a championship run is only a few months. What matters is how you play in the run itself. The wolves have been consistent in the regular season and some of the playoff games but are they in the finals? The lakers back in early 2000's were terrible in one of those seasons defensively as in average but when playoffs came, they turned it on. The point is, a couple of months is all that is needed for those runs. There's more examples to use but you get the picture

At first, I thought having both Luka and Kyrie would be a problem for the team. Them being ballhandlers that usually move the offense on every play, now they have to split reps. Boy did they prove my ass wrong. Those guys compliment each other so well. They can be on the court shredding everybody, or spread out and play with the bench players so each of them cook on their own terms while the other gets rest. Not to mention, perfect fit for the boys with the alley oop game. Got 3 guys who can just snatch it out the air and both Luka and Kyrie love throwing up lobs. I cant get enough of this team. Such great basketball

Got you! 🤫

[@benjamink7105]

I actually forgot Luka did that this season lmao. I was thinking of the 60 whatever last season as the 70+. Hubie voice "so here's a guy in Luka Doncic, you understand, that we take for granted. You need to understand what Luka Doncic does in the nba against elite competition. he's gonna give you 30 points, 10 assists, and 10 rebounds on a consistent basis. And every now and then, he'll sprinkle in a little Luka Magic." Damn dude. You drop 73 in a season and average 33.9 points (1st) 9.2 rebounds (15th) 9.8 assists (2nd!) Carrying a team. Scoring an absurd amount of points. Killing it down the stretch. Yeah. There was an Heir Jordan in series after all.

[@GOATiology]

The stats this season are unreal.

[@Eniggma39]

@@GOATiology HE DID IT AGAIN!

[@devonneelston1914]

I don’t care what nobody say. There’s something to be said about raw talent. I stopped watching the NBA consistently in 07. I was used to those old battles, LA, San A, SAC, old school T Wolves, HOU. What we witnessing right now with Luka is he a straight killa when he got that ball in his hands. What’s even more crazy or the question should be, who can stop him. Now he got somebody that can come through, say hi, match your energy, 36 and fade to black. I don’t know if they beat the Celtics but if they do and Kyrie stay and they can continue to build chemistry as a team. Damn

[@GOATiology]

Absolutely, raw talent is undeniable.

[@OCLProductionz]

Luka literally is the PERFECT Superstar. He’s an alltimer with no ceiling but also Super marketable, Super Popular, relatable personality, shines in big moments, aura, killer mentality, trash talking you name it. he is the Face of the League going into next Season😤💯💯 For those still saying the BS narrative that Luka has no defense. Luka’s actually "GOOD” at defense before the injuries piled up and got too much. If you watch Mavs Ball yk He was playing the best defense of his life this season and in the Clippers/OKC series that guys were 2/17 fg when guarded by Luka. All I can say to all Ignorants out there is that expect a focused and determined Healthy Luka at both defense & offense next season💯😤🫵

[@christianwaters3437]

lol the player with probably the worst attitude in the league is not a killer mentality 😭

Isiah Thomas with that ankle injury in the third quarter vs the Lakers in '88 finals reminds me of that short list at the end there. Great video!

[@GOATiology]

Yeah, agree. Thanks for watching!

[@dalepress1581]

People complaining about Luka's defense. Well, who are the ones complaining? It can't be the ones guarding him because they're getting torched!

[@paweljankiewicz1383]

I mean his defense now is very limited he barely moves without the ball. Watch when he gives the ball to Kyrie very early in the possession he sometimes stays close to the middle of the court. The same when he is defending he often doesn’t challenge 3 point shots. You can see that he saves his knee to offensive possessions. It is not a critique I still think he is the best player on the court even when he plays at 70%.

[@GOATiology]

Exactly! Actions speak louder than words on the court.

[@kristianmartinez2182]

Should've mentioned Dirk's flu game during the Finals.

@@GOATiology You gotta make a video about Luka in the playoffs and finals on the positive notes GOAT. Dude doesn’t deserve all the hate. He still is the best player in the world. Just not on the greatest team. Nobody else showed up.

[@rimimimimimimimim4170]

Jokic deserved the MVP. His team was worse than the Timberwolves but he played like the MVP that he is. Jokic was the best player in the world and earned his MVP. Luka is amazing too and is probably the 2nd best player just behind Jokic

[@truthhurts79]

No rings no best player

[@babalei3558]

Yup, Jokic is still the best

[@carefulilickwindows6881]

In 20+ years of watching the NBA Jokic is the best offensive engine I've ever seen. He's the only player I've ever seen that can drop 15pts and be more useful than someone that drops 40. The most efficient player in NBA history

[@zalxs.7535]

Jokic lol

[@GOATiology]

Both amazing. :)

[@jamesroberts1504]

Jokic still leads the Playoffs in Win Shares despite only playing two rounds. Jokic is still clearly the best and most valuable player in the NBA. He won a championship with ZERO All-NBA teammates, ZERO All-Defensive teammates, and ZERO All-Star teammates. When is the last time someone has done that? Probably NEVER.

[@martinchiarelli2582]

Great video as always. Keep on Goatin'.🐐 I know it's easy to say after the fact, but I fuckin called the game 5 Mavs win with my friends, in this exact way, for a very simple reason. Rest and recovery. The Mavs, but especially Luka, need it. After the game 4 narrow loss it was obvious they were gonna come out the gate guns blazing.

[@GOATiology]

Thanks! Rest and recovery definitely played a crucial role. Predictions on point!

In the first 4 games of Boston vs Dallas, if Kyrie will not have a bad night like what happened in game 4, there's a possibility that dallas in 5.

[@TheOkThx]

As a Mavs fan, even tho I think Ant is a little bit too cocky sometimes, that said, when he said he was gonna guard Kyrie and see what he can to vs him or when he said they were gonna come back, that it came from a bad place, like he said, was he supposed not to show confidence? Now, I really did not like Kat hitting Lively, Naz hitting Luka on that flagrant, and much less Rudy, what the fuck was that, for a big guy, he seemed small, that punch on Luka was pitty af... Ant is alright, needs a bit of humility, but he's alright, I like his game.

[@Ryan-wx1bi]

He never said he was gonna lock down Kyrie... He said it would be fun. Just means he's a competitor excited to play against one of the best. I don't get why people are making that statement as smack talk. He literally said "it's gonna be fun"

Since he came to the NBA, it was immediately known that he was the best. Why any discussion. Nikola Jokić was a mediocre player in the Adriatic League. Dončić broke all records in European competitions. Shai, Ant, whooo?

It's true that Jokić wasn't initially a standout in the Adriatic League, his development in the NBA has been extraordinary. Similarly, Dončić's success.

[@AKABoondock19]

Cant wait for the followup video where you show him playing horrible defense, fouling out, and then bitching about his obvious fouls.....including not taking responsibility for trying to take a charge with 5 fouls in a close game with under 3 minutes left.......instead he blames the ref. This is the player you think is the best in the world....just lol man =p
