Obviously it’s amazing how he draws fouls but Luka’s finishing is pretty unreal. It seems like if he doesn’t get blocked he doesn’t miss

he's shooting 63% from 2. considering he has 4 dunks that has to be pretty unheard of. maybe jokic in a good season is similar

this list of non-centers who shot 60% from 2 is not long. and most of these guys dunk a lot

Have only watched 1 game of his but is Oscar Robertson a good comparison for Luka?
― A True White Kid that can Jump (Granny Dainger), Wednesday, 4 December 2019 00:40 (four years ago) link
It is developing into a good comparison, but it hasn't arrived there, yet. Not enough games under luka's belt.

feel like people get that luka scores a lot but if you take into account the fact that he doesn’t play a lot of minutes and he plays pretty slow, his current season is actually 8th all time in points per possession...http://bkref.com/tiny/vp7Uo

Luka had a Bourbon Street hangover game but his bench bailed him out.
― Fetchboy, Thursday, 5 December 2019 03:51 (four years ago) link
even if it was not his best game there was a great dynamic with the dallas crowd where the bench got them back into the game and there was a noticeable anticipation for luka to come in as the hammer.

I know it sounds like I’m a luka stan or something but he really does get fouled a ton and doesn’t get the call for whatever reason. Very often he beats someone off the dribble and they just slap his chest. I’d hate so see him start flopping on it.

"I played very bad," said Doncic, who finished with 25 points, 10 rebounds, 7 assists and 6 turnovers. "I felt like I don't know how to play basketball. I've got to get better -- a lot."

I watched 2nd half and he did look bad. Shanked multiple free throws too, felt like he was playing high af. Credit to LA defensive scheme tho mostly.

his 3% is down below his rookie year now at 31.6% on over 9 attempts per game.

The Knicks, according to NBA sources, have been gathering intel on All Star Chris Paul and could make a run at him this summer. Paul, 34, carries a huge contract but he’s had a resurgent season in OKC & is proven leader. (He was also once represented by...Leon Rose.)— Frank Isola (@TheFrankIsola) March 5, 2020
― lag∞n, Thursday, 5 March 2020 19:12 (four years ago) link
I keep checking his 3% to see if it's gone up. Nope. Think we determined it's cause he takes too many step-back contested 3s, a la Harden (who similarly has a shitty % even tho I'd say he's a "good" 3 pt shooter)
― A True White Kid that can Jump (Granny Dainger), Thursday, 5 March 2020 19:33 (four years ago) link
Harden has basically hovered at 36% his whole career which is average % wise but for how many he takes its good.
the difference between 31.5 and 36 with three+ more attempts per game is pretty significant

He's just 21 but how far can he be from his ceiling at this point? He definitely needs to get better on his 3s and defense. What else has he got room to improve on?
― Fetchboy, Monday, 24 August 2020 01:19 (three years ago) link
his ft% is fine but not amazing. he needs to work on composure and not letting the refs derail him. i think he still misses some open passes on pick and roll late in games. conditioning and not getting fatigued. there's plenty to do, which is scary.
