I remember a lot of people, including nba analysts, doubted Luka before he was drafted. But at the time they forgot a crucial thing : he was playing pro basketball ever since he was 16 and he already was an MVP. He wasn't on the same level as any other from his draft class and it shows
Steven A. Smith comes to mind that guy doesn't know Talent and he's biased. He said he would take ja Morant over him if he wanted a franchise player. You said Devin Booker was a better shooter than him and Anthony Davis was the better player. I mean Davis spends more time in street clothes.
Lukas game is just so entertaining and keeps your eyes on him all the time. What i love most is his fierce competitive killer instincts. His confidence is just a 10/10. Reminds me of Larry legend. Luka is too me the best player in the game right now. Pray he just stays healthy. 🙏
I too was disappointed they left HOFamer Larry Bird off the list, ill admit Luca is far more athletic, faster, super crafty and in perfect health but lets not forget even with his many injuries Larry was a damn good passer, shooter, play maker and all around off ball talent as well. That said I just started watching Doncic and im (thoroughly) impressed, he seems to have it all and makes other players look like amateurs. I still love Larry as I grew up in his era when he was in action but no denying Luca is an astounding next level player and a real treat to watch. Id love to have seen what Larry would have been like with Doncic's health and without all the injuries that really hurt his career - but thats also one of the most amazing things about Larry, even with a wrecked back, broken and disfigured finger, multiple eye socket fractures, two achilles tendon surgeries etc etc. he still managed to become a HOF Legend - but that was then this is now, Magic Johnson said at Larrys retirement ceremony there would never be another Larry Bird, but Luca is looking like young healthy Larry Bird(+++!), I think hes even better than MJ but many will disagree, if anything he could surely give MJ a real problem even on his worst day.
When thinking about Doncics passing you need to take in consideration that his teammates need to actually make the shots in order for him to get an assist. Doncic is like Messi in soccer: Scoring and passing in a league of his own...
Nah why’d you make it look like it was gonna be a Luka hate video in the thumbnail? 😭 I was fully prepared to dislike it before I decided to give the 1st 2 min a chance
I'm a new NBA and basketball fan and Luka is my favorite player. I don't know the rules inside and out yet, but at 2:23, isn't that a travel? Looked like the game turned into football instead of basketball there for a moment. Can someone explain to me in case I may be wrong.
I ain’t gone lie him not mention Westbrook as a good passer is a crime like cmon man, Ik Westbrook gets TOs but that’s what happens when your a great passer, like look at lukas average at assists is 4 so I don’t wanna hear Westbrook is a turnover machine smh
Luka will suffer from the same problem that Larry Bird did, he does not come across as smooth or flashy. I HATED LARRY BIRD as a Lakers/Jabbar/Magic fan back in the day. Wanna know what player I feared them most during the Celtic v Lakers finals ? Of Course Bird followed by MR. Knees and elbows Kevin McHale who also was awkwardly bu was a killer and the 2nd best #4 player of that era behind Hakeem. Let us see how long Doncic can keep it up !
you said it right .... the best 23 yo of history the fact is that he can hardly improve his game. Michael and Lebron at that age weren't as good as him, but you could see the aspects where they had to improve. the only aspect Luka needs is having better teammates and another star, and start winning titles
Dont discrase the league mentioning LB as a great in the NBA.....He is a flop along with Curry! MJ is the ALL-TIME G.O.A.T Luka is a Bird with a little more speed and athleticism!
"UNORTHODOX" skill set? What exactly does that mean? The entire NBA tries to do what he does, and only very few can. I guess your understanding of the word to describe a players abilities that are consistently successful means unorthodox? Dame Lillard, Unorthodox, Labron James , Unorthodox? Lol.

oh no, they didn't forget. they were only looking down on euro basketball

That's what i feel about Luka. He's JUST like Larry Legend.
Step back shots. Insane playmaking. Not the fastest guy on the court. Not too athletic.
4:04 the crowds reaction to another team player humiliating thier team makes me smile. greatness trancends favorites
You did a great job! And you made a good point.
Let’s be honest this kid is the best passer of this era if he wants to he can average 15 assists per game he’s basketball IQ is unmatch
Jokic
Don't forget Pistol Pete, especially considering the era he played in.
Best NBA players ever...
Larry Bird
Luka Doncic

you sir ,get my sub,thanks for nice vids,have a good one
Luka Legend
You left out Larry bird,,as one of the greatest passers,🤠
The F1 theme is so fitting for Luka I don't know why. Good choice bro

Luka Doncic = Larry Bird 2.0
They say his way is unorthodox but this is the scientific way of playing basketball.
I guess everybody feels like an NPC in an old Videogame Career Mode, where somebody created and controlls him.
3:20 this pass always looks like a nba 2k22 cheated/glitched BS pass accuracy to me 😂 it's looks so magical 😂
Dude, Majic was great, no doubt, but you continue to ignore Larry Bird as one of the league's best ever passing.
Nah why’d you make it look like it was gonna be a Luka hate video in the thumbnail? 😭 I was fully prepared to dislike it before I decided to give the 1st 2 min a chance
He wouldn't have lebron flopping if he wanted people to hate on luka
Clickbait
Magic was a great passer, but the greatest ever was a guy named Bird.
😂best thumbnail ever
Luka has the best attributes of Larry Bird and Steph Curry.
that put back dunk Luka boosted off supermans shoulder with his left hand.
Luka's strength and size... he's the White LeBron, and you know it.
i have a little message to the uploader, "LARRY BIRD".
I am amazed how his team mates seem to all be able to knock it down when he passes to them.
You just made a Larry Bird video without even mentioning his name. 😁
I can describe him in one word, Birdlike.
That’s Mr Bird to you. Or Jesus Larry Christ. Whichever
This. He's just like Larry Legend.
Basketball gods, put Luka and Jokic in the same team, please make it happen.
like all great stars their time is measured, accept them for what they are.
He's becoming a legend.
Larry Legend
Luka Legend
I'd go for that.
So glad you found a way to point out that he's white. Is any highlight reel really complete without a little race jab? Nicely executed.
Why did you leave out Larry Bird 🦅 who Luka has followed his plays?
I'm a new NBA and basketball fan and Luka is my favorite player. I don't know the rules inside and out yet, but at 2:23, isn't that a travel? Looked like the game turned into football instead of basketball there for a moment. Can someone explain to me in case I may be wrong.
Luka is HIM
I ain’t gone lie him not mention Westbrook as a good passer is a crime like cmon man, Ik Westbrook gets TOs but that’s what happens when your a great passer, like look at lukas average at assists is 4 so I don’t wanna hear Westbrook is a turnover machine smh

You guys obviously have not looked at Larry Bird passes. Lukas pass was a very good pass but nothing exceptional if you look at the Bird.
That's not going to far, that's just removing the unnecessary showy stuff and playing the game.
Luka was not Luka last night. He was either hurt or sick.
good video but bad title and thumbnail
9 times Luka going too far and times LBJ faked too far like a soccer player. Neymar thought LBJ?
you said it right .... the best 23 yo of history
the fact is that he can hardly improve his game.
Michael and Lebron at that age weren't as good as him, but you could see the aspects where they had to improve.
the only aspect Luka needs is having better teammates and another star, and start winning titles
Larry Bird...
Cobra from Slovenija
Is like a superstronger Dazen Petrovic.
better passer than petrovic
Don’t say it loud. Our older generations will get mad. It’s same like saying Lebron is better than Jordan.
🤷 luka is the most orthodox player, why brand him as unorthodox. 🤦
Too much you talking too little Luka!
I knew from his rookie season this was a very bad man...
Level of Lebrone? Huh Lebrone can't go half the skills of Luka duh
Dont discrase the league mentioning LB as a great in the NBA.....He is a flop along with Curry!
MJ is the ALL-TIME G.O.A.T
Luka is a Bird with a little more speed and athleticism!
"UNORTHODOX" skill set? What exactly does that mean? The entire NBA tries to do what he does, and only very few can. I guess your understanding of the word to describe a players abilities that are consistently successful means unorthodox? Dame Lillard, Unorthodox, Labron James , Unorthodox? Lol.
One of the greatest passes in the history of the NBA….LOL
Bro let me watch the clips and then speak if not is so boring
2:25 travel
Who, now how many titles does he have. The same as Pete Maravich - NONE
There are Air,Mamba, Magic,King= but BRO DON of NBA FINALYArrived
LUKA DONCIC HALL OF FAME
Steta sto se odrekao srpskog drzavljanstva .... Mogao je da dominira u u reprezentativnim nastupidma, da se ugazi amerika, kao onomad 2002. g.
Luka Legend
