Most honest smile in NBA. He really love the game. I hope that he will never lose that love and honesty.
He throws a lot of no look passes that seem to always get where they're supposed to, to his teammates and not the fans in the stands. He's pretty freakin' incredible.
In the 80s and 90s they would do that stuff all the time
But they still try to tell us that Morant is the future. Dude ain't got shit on Luka.
Exactly. It's just delusional US NBA fans who have no idea about real basketball.
Its jus cuz they love d rose n think he’d be an all time great if never got hurt so they push that on ja cuz his game is similar
I wouldn't put it as rough as ain't got shit on Luka. Ja is an amazing talent.
@@knox8113 there are amazing talents, and then there are Lukas, mj’s, lebrons and curry’s … ja is great but he isn’t their level until he proves he has that
@@yerik6034 Curry wasn't that great in his first (5?) years tho
It’s almost like he’s bringing back the classic game of basketball and I like it. Plays very similar to a lot of older players out there and doesn’t over complicate things, either he steps in then spins and shoots or he drives through like it’s nothing. Great all around player
He just drops the first 60-20-10 Ever😱😱
If luka stay healthy he will definitely end up in top 10 of all time
Lol….. The GOAT already knows he will be #1 eventually. He gonna have his hands full of rings soon!
@@SolarzFFA I guess thats why curry got 4 rings w his A1 Defense. Give Luka a Klay and Poole and a Green to hype his team up. Maybe then he gets a better chance… maybe tho cus curry is 10x the defender he is 🤣
@@SolarzFFA actually no .. look at curry he got 4 rings and one fmvp and many people put him in top 10 of all time so imagine if curry win another two championships and another fmvp.. he will definitely climb to to top 5 .. so it's possible for luka to be the goat.. it depends on how many championships and fmvp he will get
Id take curry over luka any day of the week,idk what ur smokin
@@TheReynus Do you think Luka will play with the Dallas Mavericks through out his whole career like Dirk Nowitzki
I am Spanish and a fan of Real Madrid and when I saw Barckley's statements they bothered me a lot. I have followed Luka's career since he debuted in the Real Madrid first team. The EuroLeague MVP was more than deserved and not because the adults were bad players, but because he was too good. In a 40-minute game (he probably didn't play more than 25 minutes), he was able to do a triple-double, something that hadn't been seen in the Spanish league for more than 15 years. Here he was always known as WONDER BOY and those of us who follow the NBA but also Europe knew what Luka was capable of. To Mr. Charles I would say that before you criticize something, make sure you know why you are criticizing it. Without seeing a competition you cannot criticize it. The NBA is not the navel of the world even though it is the best league. In addition, now he barely defends himself in the NBA, here in Europe he defends much more. For Luka it was going to be easier to score and pass in the NBA than in Europe 🙏 Peace
Chuc has also given him much praise. Don’t be selective in your listening 😎
Charles is just bitter for seeing a white guy that know how to play more 95% of black people in the NBA right now.
@@joshuablack8221 its not about that, sure chuck ate his words now after seeing how great luka is, but back then before the draft, what he said really is offensive, when luka won the mvp he was the real deal, him at 18 is a top 7 payer in the nba, and now he’s objectively top 3 arguably the best in the world. So barkley shouldn’t be talkin without knowin the facts.
Luka even said it himself. It was more difficult to play in Europe than the NBA.
@@joshuablack8221 He has given him a lot of praise after debuting in the NBA. Before, you couldn't believe that an 18-year-old could dominate Europe and 30-year-old players. That is why I say that before criticizing a competition, you should see it and then give your opinion. Like the opinion of players. Now is when all those who criticized him, have gone crazy in praise. Now everyone who didn't pick him over Atlanta in the draft and even Atlanta in trading him for Trae Young, will be cursing
luka is reason why i watch NBA
He’s the only reason I’m checking in on it more now
Luka is the reason why I will start watching NBA after 10 years. I'll even go pay crazy money for a ticket this coming March.
Luka can easily score but he can also find the open man when defenses collapse on him. It’s deadly
-- he's the love child of Bird and Magic.
It literally creates a no-win scenario for the opposing defense every time
He only passes when he doesn’t have a shot….. Magic and Bird were pass first. Bird was deadly without the ball in his hands.
@@e50s65 The big men in the paint sometimes just give up even trying to defend Luka. They're thinking "why bother, there's nothing I can do".
@@orange_cat Facts, he's just too skillful and patient with his fakes for them
Pierce is delusional if he thinks he’s “there” with Luka 💀
Time for Paul to take drug test, lol
I mean I get what he’s saying. Neither Pierce or Luka are going to wow you with their athletic ability. But yeah Pierce is something else.
@@turnupthesun81 Luka doesn't wow anyone?? Shooting from the logo off one foot?
Pierce is actually underrated, he would get props if he wasnt so busy giving props to himself
It comes with age
Luka really loves the game that's why he was so good at it. He's one of those player that you just can't defend. He'll score either way
I heard that Larry Bird called Luka cute and said that he has a peculiar charming twinkle in his eye and a pep in his step. Not sure how to take it but it must count for something still.
Das day asf
Probably thinking I wish they’d put that white boy on me I’d score 50. 🤣
@@-hunt-6225 luka would go 100% FG on bird . That’s an easy back down
@@ricie4 bird was decent defensively, he’s a great help defender, celtics would probably put dennis Johnson on him, and bird plus mchale as help defender. Although nobody stop luka, but bird would score as much points and assist as well.
Larry is a notorious trash talker and an ultimate competitor, not surprising if this is true. Some greats might give him props but it takes all kinds to make the world go round.
Luka has his own style and his own way to play basketball and he is from another era especially playing like this if he has been in the NBA for years of course in his country was already playing basketball and then when he was like 17 and 18 he was already playing for his national team and he also played for real madrid in spain and won MVP titles and chips with them and played against old guys and the game there is more aggressive and physical so when he arrived to the NBA he was ready for it since the NBA is a little to soft so for Luka is more easy than over there and he knows how to use everything when he play the game....
Legendary Luka is just like legendary Messi. Beast with a baby face.
@Hackintosh It gave me a freaking headache!
Paul pierce never fails to make something about him
He's right, Pierce used his body as well as anyone in league history, Pierce could score from anywhere, and he had a slightly slower, more lumbering pace to his game, but Pierce was more vertical and Luka more pure skill. Pierce was not the passer that Luka already is though, so you have that Larry/Magic quality to Luka's game in terms of court vision, BB IQ, and instinct. For the one-on-one aspect of the game, the similarities are definitely there between PP and Luka, but not as much for the all-around game.
My friend and came for esame country. Slovenija 💪🇸🇮
Pozdrav
Just look at the man’s numbers he has never not exceeded all of his peers he’s clearly the next 🐐
Luka is by far the cutest player in the NBA rn, he will be the best by next year
Find it funny cuteness is somehow relevant when it comes to basketball 🤣
The female refs might cut you some slack;)
@@CourtsideTV1 everyone's seen the clip of Luka flirting with that one ref 😂
What?
@@Not_Hat Do you think Luka will play with the Mavericks through out his whole career like Dirk Nowitzki
He dominates offensively and because he can pass the ball so well they can keep the ball in his hands and wait until he makes the right play. He’s able to break down defenses because you have to send help, this kid will torch you one on one. One of my favorite players to watch
With insane vision, He is so relaxed. That is why he is always feet-on-the- ground well balanced and able to change to a crazy pass in a split-second. The super athletic guys jumping around him he just calmly walks around while they are flying in the air. That is also why they say he is un-athletic. This also reduces his injury exposure.
I agree but can think of another danger. What if one of the big guys in the paint tries to block his shot, he will obviously miss because Luka will fake him out, but the big guy accidentally lands on Luka?
@@orange_catyea he lands on luka it would be a foul and possibly a and 1
The goat of 90´s basketball wtf??????????????? Simply THE GOAT
Nah that would be Marcus Smart
The ppl that put LeBron above Jordan blow my mind,I wouldn't even put LeBron ahead of Kobe,
@@willthomas7666 because you don’t know basketball 😂 bro said he wouldn’t put bron ahead of Kobe. All true nba fans love kobe but if you have kobe anywhere below top 5 you clownin
@@brockjensen2473 The only clown here is you that you put this overhyped player against literal legends. Shall I show you his expression when he lost in 2005 to one of the best teams ever in Europe? The Lebron is overrated and overhyped at best. You are the one who has no clue about real basketball.
@@willthomas7666 Exactly. Some US well scratch that most US fans are delusional af. They think this overhyped clown can even come close to real legends. Let alone the goat of all time Michael Jordan. To this day noone is even close to him to me. And I say that as a Greek fan.
I think he has some Olajuwon with the quickness of his spin moves and his fadeaways from either side. It's crazy how many different players he reminds me of. I'm in Houston but am a Mavs fan now because of this guy. Fun to watch.
Good point, he does have some Olajuwon. Maybe they are related? I can't tell.
@@orange_cat most definitely related
I’m already wearing Luka in the hood lol out here in La
soon come babies named Lukaesha & Lukadeemus
@@fakinlunatik3553 come on bruh 😂nah I kno a 30 year old name lukisha
@@lankycuh see 🤣
@@lankycuh 🤣😅😂they saw the future!
@@lankycuh With a name like Lukisha I bet she can dunk lol
To me Luka is a mixture of Larry Bird and Magic Johnson
it's also one of a rare player playing with a smile after a basket or a good pass! against the agressive attitude of players who looks like warriors who share no pleasure of playing but only violence behaviour . You didn't save the planet guys when you put a basket you just have 2 points ! it's a fight in a Game not in a real war 😀Don't forget guys to be HAPPY to play just as Doncic shows! It's very more smart & inspire the kids
Luka took European basketball as an individual player, adapted it to NBA rules and keeps improving this style. He may have missed that top 75 thing, but I bet he will end up at least top 20 all-time in 25 years.
I can't see anyway he's worse than top 10. Just putting up stats that rival the best ever right now and he's still just a kid. If he does it for 2 or 3 years in a row and stays healthy, he's going to have a real argument for being top five. Tough to get higher without the athleticism, but if he can get his assists up to 10 per game I don't see how you say any point guard in history was ever better.
Top 5 depending on rings won
@@SDesWriter Yeah I completely agree, but just felt like saying "at least" leaves some room for future talents. If dude keeps doing things the same way while improving his game, he is nowhere below top 10, if not higher.
@@chiragpatel849 Chamberlain is top 5 and possibly #1 depending on what's important to you in a player. He has the least rings of anyone else in that range. Also, NO player wins rings by himself. Russel got destroyed by Chamberlain every time they played, but wound up with an incredible number of rings because he had the best team mates (in an era where the players couldn't go anywhere else unless the owner decided to dump them).
As great as Jordan was (most people's #1) he didn't win ANYTHING until he was surrounded by Pippen, Grant, Kukoc & Rodman. That rings argument is so nonsensical...
es un mounstruo, todavia da ventaja fisica, pero claramente sabe y juega todo el juego a la perfeccion
Perfecto
I love watching basketball .....because of LUKA🤩😍
So lucky to be a Mavs fan! Luka!!!!!
“Despite throwing the claim that they’re similar, the respect and admiration is evident”
The best shade at Pierce you could have possibly thrown 😂
He scored a triple-double on the 29th, this year, he's averaging 40 points already and 9 assists and 9 rebounds a game. he scored 51 on the 31st, scored 39 points,12 rebounds and 8 assists yesterday ..and 11 3-pointers in 3 games...
It's not just athletic ability he's intelligent plus the fact somethings you can't teach looks like it comes very natural to him
Luka is living legend.
Luka might not be fastest, but he has something else that a lot of players don't..
That is his acceleration and deceleration, he can go from 0 to Max and can drop from Max to 0 in an instant..
Defending against such player is really difficult..
Plus he has extraordinary IQ for the game along with calmness..
I'd rather say he's a lethal player in the NBA history..
If he continues playing like this, he'll surely end up in top 10
nba players are used to fast pace games with a lot of agility involved, luka’s play style shook the muscle memory out of them
All great players seem to have so much time to do their thing, regardless of their chosen sport. Luka plays like his opponents are playing in slow motion. Messi playing soccer is a good comparison. Luka is special.
I think he's a mixture of Paul Pierce and Jason Kidd. He's similar to Pierce because he has that "Yeah I'm not quick but I'm going to get to my spot no matter what you do." lol... They both pace at their own pace. It was hard to predict what they were going to do, and to take the ball from them. Luka also reminds me of Jason Kidd because he's strong, balanced, under control, and has deceptive court vision. Sometimes you think you have him cornered then you realize he wanted you there so he can pass the ball to an open teammate. He is definitely more polished than Pierce was. Pierce is his floor in my opinion. I love his game.
That’s a really bad comparison imo
Luka is playing GODMODE blessing our Mavericks for his first steps in the NBA he is a legend to me just as good a dirk humble 3 pointer
Bad white boy😭😂😂😂😂
You can tell he's got goat material just by having a unique style of playing and that goes for any sport. You could say he's slow as hell, but the way he plays makes it irrelevant, which is exactly what makes him so hard to beat and genius.
You can tell he grinds hard, but as a Slovenian, we're used to being the underdog, no self esteem and underestimated all the time, especially by ourselves, which makes the appetite for being better even greater. This happens a lot with our athletes actually. They grind really hard so they can be considered relevant globally and then realize one day "oh shit, we actually reached the top of the game now"🤷♂ and there's only 2m of us.
Luka has no weakness in term of offence almost unguardable he dominate the teams .. he need to work harder defensively ... He need more help from his team and that will make him trust his teammates more ... I think if all these circumstances will be afforded to him by the franchise this will lead to a blast
Lol almost? The man is definitely unguardable. What I love about him is he has it all offensively. Change of speed, change of direction, strength, craftiness, footwork, post game, step back, great passing ability and the ability to see plays before they happen and most importantly? Basketball I.Q. and a competitive edge. As long as he stays healthy....offensively he will break records. Now....if only he cared about defense. SIGH.
@@ralx225b Luka has good Defense now do you guys watch the mavs ?? He’s been really good so far this year
@@ricie4 I haven't been able to watch him this year so far. Been kind of busy. But I'll definitely check it out.
@@ralx225bhe’s second in the league for steals per game at 2.1
He is 2nd in Steals this year,so obviously his defense is better, and I'm proud of him improving his free throw shooting,all the great players always shoot a high percentage on the line
Dude said “the goat of 90s basketball” just say the GOAT my boy
You're welcome 😉 Happy New Year from Slovenia ✨
Pierced makes every question about him, he’s so insecure he doesn’t realize he was an ok player nowhere near luka
He is delusional
Luka does Luka things but I was so impressed by Josh Green's level of play.
If only he had another superstar in his team, he would def get a ring
Yeah he needs another star and a bunch of good defensive players/spot up shooters, and then he’ll win a title.
@@maximusprimus827 Jokic to Dallas and job done .
I just start watching NBA this month and I saw a lot and a lot montage from Luka, I was thinking: Oh this player is so good, he must be very experienced NBA player and the next top superstar MVP of NBA
Then I watched his background and this video: WAIT WHAT THIS GUY IS ONLY 23 YEARS OLD??? HE IS EVEN YOUNGER THAN ME WTF?
I'm your fan now, Mr. Luka
When Jerry west says something u need to listen the man knows ball. And is successful in ever position he has held.
Ahhh yess the luka special will go down in history
Congratulation ❤ 🎊 🎉🍾🥂❤ 1 million views ❤️
Bez tebe nisto
Luka will be the best player since Jordan. He's not even in his prime yet. Wait a couple years and Luka is going to enter true GOAT mode. 🐐
I think he's entering it now 37-10-9. Once his 3 point shooting gets on track he might average 40.
He's going to need help from the front office still, even MJ needed more than just himself. Dallas needs to draft or aquire at least a second star
@@codyryan6664 I agree.
@@AchillesWrath1 he won't average 40. He could if he wanted to, but so could any other superstar. However, they know that's not the way to win basketball games.
@@bgdgdgdf4488 Well judging by last nights loss to HOU without him he made need to. HOU was 2-10 coming into the game but i guess DAL is actually the worst team in the league if Luka doesn't play. You gotta do what you gotta do if you're him to win games and that's your supporting cast. Management and owners fault for building a piss poor team around him.
He is already legendary
Simply The Best!
Bird was a better shooter, but skill wise Doncic is on another level.
I'm taking bird
Bird way better.
Bird bro cmon larry is a top 10 player all time
I mean to be fair the sport of basketball evolves crazy fast. So I am sorry to break my opinion to y’all but I think Doncic better than Bird. Tbh Bird worked his way up to his talent especially when he was approaching his prime. Doncic I believe is just as good as Bird now and Doncic isn’t even in his prime yet. If he works on his exploding to the basket more by the time he’s like 28 he might be the new GOAT. Never know
@@walterchandler8138 Anyone in the GOAT conversation is a good defender, even Larry had 3 NBA All Defensive team selections to go with all his other awards. Biggest detraction against Luka is he will probably never be a great two way player.
Luka has the skills of Bird(best ever!) without being an ace whole, he has the soccer player feet of Nash, he can score from anywhere and his passing keeps defenses off balance.
THE FUTURE 🐐
Love the praise. 😮 chuck your making me cry 😢 I got a jersey. He is definitely one sharp shooting sharing superstar. Luka is really as good a Dirk to me. Go Dallas
Yessir Luka
Luka is the best player in the NBA today.
Maybe of all time when it’s all said and done
This didn´t age well,it´s jokic ..luka is fading away in that shithole dallas...put luka in boston or lakers and we will see the real luka
A cocky straight up assasin on the court with the skills to back it up and a jovial humble loveable dude off it. The perfect combination to be the face of the league once Steph retires.
I'm taking ja Morant and other players over luka
@@willthomas7666 ja morant can play the game the way he does but luka controls the game the way he wants
@@willthomas7666 😁there you go, no one opposes you, but the smart ones take Luka!!🤗😘❣
4:12 what happened to buddies voice right there? 😂
I dont know why everyone compare Luka with others players....its time to compare others players with Luka!!!!
This is normal. When you are young, you are never a benchmark. When Luka gets to the age of 30 there would be young guys who would be compared with him.
Luka 💪👍
POP will always my favorite coach.
Luka will be one of the greats.
"The GOAT of 90's basketball". Genius.
got crazy money, crazy team and plolly rising goat..
Slovenija on top
Not really. Only Luka and he is not on top but one of the top teams.
Paul Pierce's biggest fan is Paul Pierce.
The future GOAT
Fun fact Luka would give them all buckets 🏀
Can anyone tell me what J's those are at the end? The neon yellow and red ones?
The Brothers don’t want to admit it but Luka is THE best player in the NBA period. It’s not even close. The Joker is next. Both have shown and done things not done before by any other player in the modern NBA. Remember all the doubters saying he wasn’t athletic enough, he was slow and so on? They ate crow as soon as the kid laced up his sneakers. All the so called athletic players are getting smoked by him nightly. He’s mortal and may have an off game occasionally but he’s steady every game and clutch. He’s a quality leader on the floor, is aware of everything going on at all times and is not selfish. No showboating, doesn’t celebrate like a lot of the other players. Just focused on the business at hand. He’s top fifteen in league history already IMO. What do you think?
Very good points and I like the point about not celebrating! A lot of these guys dunk and think they are the greatest thing on Earth. Lol. It's the easiest shot in basketball if you can jump high enough. All Luka does is give a smile.😁✌
Paul, Paul, Paul; spoken like a true Jayhawk.
He got the moves of Harden, competetiveness of Giannis, vision of Bron, clutch genes of Dame, swag of Curry, and the speed of Jokic.
Hahahahaa
The GOAT of 90’s basketball?
YOU MEAN THE GOAT
Yes
Luka, Jokic, Curry, Embiid and of course my all time favorite as a Greek, Giannis are the only players I like in the NBA currently. And Curry the only US player I like. All other are arrogant overhyped showoffs.
Lukas doncic is the best shooter in the NBA today...facts..he is leading the NBA in scoring...34__2 points per game
The difference between Luka and LeBron is that people like Luka.
Well lebron can run fast and jump… luka can’t do that
In hope Dallas builds a team around him that can actually win some rings
Pierce can’t give a compliment without including himself in the conversation smh
Holy crap he’s only 20!? I clearly don’t follow the NBA too closely but that level of talent is pretty easy to spot. I figured he played in Europe for years as was like 28 haha. Good for him.
mans is 23 avg 34, 9, 9 a game absolutely unheard of. his worst season so far is 21, 8, 6 i don’t know if there’s ever been a player this good so young
*THE BEST TODAY*
Luka does have a similar game to Paul Pierce.
Chuck says the realest shit
The best players in the NBA are from Europe, and they all think NBA is the easiest league xD
luka will be one of the greatest players
I think Luca is a combination of bird and Magic. He's a far better shooter than magic ever was and he's a little more athletic than bird was and a better outside shooter. Not sure he can take over a game on the level of either of them at the moment, it's more a matter of when he's on he's just better than everyone on the floor.
As teams start really focusing their defense around stopping him we'll see if he can find ways to still put up the numbers but my guess is that his scoring will drop a little at his assists are going to go into that Magic Johnson/ John Stockton range.
Remember now, Magic had Kareem and Worthy. Luka has nobody close to that level. That needs to be taken into consideration
Watching him play the Bucks made me think just how unstoppable a duo like Luka and Giannis would be. I guess it wouldn't even really be fair though.
@@infasis jesus dude luka and giannis would be an absolutely insane duo. i genuinely think they’d 3 peat atleast. it be even cooler bc they are both loyal and love the game.
Even if Luka was 5"8 he would still be a star
Bird, Nash, Nowitzki, Genobli.....one of these things is not like the others......it's Genobli.
Ginobili
Cheers from Slovenia!
Just wait and see and enjoy it
Watching this as he just passes Larry Bird on All time Triple Doubles list. He’s him.
You just say GOAT when you talk about Mike. He transcends.
"the Goat of 90s basketball"...you mean the GOAT.
Why are we suddenly overlooking Bird's passing abilities? He's absolutely one of the greatest passers the game has ever seen and Doc Rivers should know that better than most. You didn't even have to add Jason Kidd into your equation. It gives young folks like this creator/narrator the idea that he wasn't the best passer in his time next to Magic. Do your homework. Compare him to Bird straight up. You don't have to add another assist guy. That diminishes Bird's ability.
I remember when chuck said he's never seen a white guy whoop black dudes like this since Larry Bird 😂
Luka doesn’t whoop anybody tho… lol y’all yt people are reachong
He is a good passer and shooter.
I bet he makes opponents really confused :-)
To Larry is the best shooter in nba but loca is better player if he stays healthy he could top 5 great
When I look at the highlights from Luka, the first thing that goes through my mind is "I wonder if he's going to be as good as Pierce?" I'm pretty sure that's what everyone is thinking. (Now where's that sarcasm font again?}
Oh man Luka and Joker in same team, they are friends and it would impossible to beat them............
