    Luka may be the most dominant offensive player ever seen. That sounds crazy but at a certain point you have to take into consideration Luka makes every kind of shot there is from anywhere on the floor. Post, 3's, midrange, fade aways, step backs, jab steps, facing the basket, back to the basket, his bag is DEEP.

I'll tell you this, Embiid doesn't not have the deep bag that Luka has, Luka can score from anywhere, in any manner or method you choose, Embiid takes some mid-range jumpers but mostly scores layups, dunks, and shoots FT's all night. As far as offensive skill, Luka is on another level.

The Mavs missed the play-in last season. Sure, the Nuggets are a better team overall, and Kyrie as another ball-handler doesn't fit Luka's play-style.

      The difference is, Luka played with a bunch of nobody's on his team. Now that he has some depth, this team will excel. I'm hoping the injuries stay away for the rest of the season. With that said, I think the mavs have the right pieces to get the job done now.

      Context matters in these situations, Mavs were a nothing team. Then they got a generation player and they barely built around him. Mavs just hoped Luka would carry them all the way by himself but it's impossible. Players like Giannis and Jokic played in teams where that had all star players. It's was only since Irving came that Luka trully had a world class player. I mean things have changed in the past week of course he's got some excellent help. Can you imagine the way that Luka can give players clean look 3s and Mavs actually had a couple players that could hit them at a high percentage rather than just relying on himself? Mavs would've been in a totally different situation which would've made Luka look even better. But ultimatley, Luka has had the whole organisation on his shoulders and his shoulders only.

    I'm a Luka fan and I believe he has a good chance to finish as the best European basketball player ever to play when his basketball career ends, but he isn't currently that.
    If we are talking strictly European NBA players, in alphabetical order (since I don't want to rank them right now), here are at least 3 players he would have to pass:
    Giannis Antetokounmpo
    Nikola Jokić
    Dirk Nowitzki
    With 2 of those players still being in the league and still being great, it won't be easy, but it is definitely doable if he has that desire. If he plays long enough (A big if considering he has multiple times stated that he doesn't want to), I believe he can finish as the best European basketball player ever, but as far as NBA resumes go, he still has a long way to go.

Now they they have a big they won 6 in a row so he will actually have to be considered this year. His defense is much better than it was, 7th in steals. It’s not elite by any means but given where he started it’s leaps and bounds better.

    I think Luka easily has the potential to be. He just obviously doesnt have the career yet.
    For now Jokic and Giannis easily clear.
    But literally Dirk himself has said that as a *player on the court* Luka is better than he ever was, and I think he said that years ago when Luka was still in his early 20s.
    Jason Kidd, a guy who was literally Dirks teammate when he won that ring, said Luka is better and on the level of MJ/Kobe
    People gotta remember this mf isnt even 25 yet and has already gone 4/5 on first team all nba seasons (about to be 5/6), dropped 73, 60/20/10, averages a 35 point triple double, and completely dismantled and embarrassed the 1 seed in the playoffs when he was age 22 or 23.
