    Racist A Smith at it again. Let's talk about the losers instead of the clutch winners. When Embiid scores 70, he's the greatest big man since Shaq. When Luka does it, the defense is trash when technically Embiid did it against a worse team. I swear if Luka was black, SAS would've been calling him the next MJ years ago when he was killing it in the regular season and playoffs his whole career. SAS is not an honorable person. He sees color and if you're not black, then you're not on his ballot. Thank god Shannon Sharpe is there because he actually gives Luka his flowers. ESPN sucks. I used to respect Wilbon, but he's become nothing but a sheep.

    SAS hates Luka so much that he makes these absurd comparisons. Luka Dončić this season and he has taken two completely different teams to the Conference Finals in 3 years:
    • 34/9/10
    • 1st in points
    • 2nd in assists
    • 73 point game (4th highest ever)
    • First 33/9/9 season in NBA history
    • Most 30-PT TD’s since MVP Russ
    • 1st in 25-point games
    • 1st in 35-point games
    • 1st in 40-point games
    • 1st in 45-point games
    • 2nd in 3’s made
    • Top 10 in steals
    • 61.7% TS
    • Highest scoring season in Mavs history
    • Most PPG + RPG + APG since the merger.
    • Most consecutive 25 point triple-doubles ever
    • Most consecutive 30 point triple-doubles ever
    • Lifted Mavs from 11 seed to 5 seed
    • Most games missed by teammates among all playoff teams
    • Mavs 50+ wins
    • Mavs 1st in clutch win%
    • 6th best record in entire NB

      Whats even more incredible is that they were trade deadline teams. Not only were they different teams but a major reshuffle of the starting line up during mid season in both runs. This is the most incredible thing about Luka. He just makes it work with whatever hes got and now when he has a solid team Mavs have become the juggernaut. Every player in the NBA knew this was going to happen and it was just a matter of time. Are they the best team? Maybe. Can they go all the way? Idk, but we all know ESPN is a one big joke.
