    As a Finn I appreciate guys in NBA appreciating Lauri. Expecially (ex)players, since they are the ones who have the best understanding of the league. 🙂 Nice to have this podcast and see Lauri talking relaxed looking with you guys.

      Yeah - and it sorta comes to this - as a fellow Finn I can also add, that it's highly unprecedented to have the kind of flair Lauri has and which is a kind of a requirement for an NBA player let alone an all star. I mean being just a bit cocky and giving that stare after a poster dunk and all. Usually it is '"expected" to be overly humble and downplay your achievements, I've seen some NHL players quitting doing cellys after the first rookie goals. But this seems to be a welcomed change, as in the latest polls Lauri was voted the most popular sports figure in Finland - as the first ball player ever. (And now we see daily NBA scores in the main newspapers, that didn't happen 5+ years ago.)

      @Yea Boyyy
      I think that's something Lauri has worked during the years too. I don't think it was natural to him either at first 🙂 So I guess other Finns have hope too 😂
      Even still he looks so meek in interviews compared to other NBA players, expecially star ones 😄 As a Finn that's of course part of his charm but it might be difficult for people from USA and other places to understand 🙂

    They better give him Most Improved Player regardless of win/loss records. Jazz were doing great before they traded away 3 starters. They're still hanging in there now too. Very rare to see a near 11 point increase from somebody already averaging 14.8. Might be one of the most improved players of all time. What a turn of events. Humble, shooter, dunker, efficient! MIP!

      No hurry. Lauri will reach his prime like 3 or 4 years from now. We have around 8 years to do it. We must build a team bit by bit. Also bench must be elite bench.
