- Luka Doncic is one of the best offensive players in NBA history, and his 50 point, 15 assist performance against the Suns on Christmas proves it.

Luka is getting doubled TWICE as much as the second most doubled player in the NBA this season. Let that sink in
And still averaging nearly 34 PPG, it's hilarious how good he is.
It's funny that Luka is one of two players that you should never double. Yet, teams find themselves in a position to double Luka and immediately pay for it.
@@berryesseen I think they think its safer to double Luka and have him pass to a lesser player, than it is to just give him room to shoot even more. And it think it shows. if the Mavs can sort out the other positions with better shooters, they'd be unstoppable.
your videos are great man, i haven't seen many but you're definitely going places. I'm sure you get this all the time. I also rarely leave comments, if you practiced some editing (like putting arrows and highlighting the players in a play like kinda like espn does it would add some kick to the videos. Give you more separation from other creators doing similar video styles. I watch a lot of fitness creators, and it seems the thing that gives larger creators a boost over others is the fact that they have some sort of unique editing style. I think part of the reason behind that is the fact that if someone who isn't subscribed watched a few videos of yours in the past they'd see your editing style and they'd have a remembrance to the other videos and be more likely to subscribed. Keep making videos man you're doing great and i'm sure it's a blast @@HoopVenue
I don't know where you heard this misinformation. He's barely leading in total time doubled and he's not leading in being doubled per possession. That's still Giannis and Embiid. To simply believe something as such is possible shows a serious lack of understanding of this game. Embiid would have to only be double-teamed 50% of possessions just for Luka to have a chance at this. It's simply not possible.
The results are in...Luka...you are the father!
🤣 good one
Phoenix HATES this man.
@@HoopVenuelike every rebel children
@@HoopVenuedid you say he hung 82% eFG on them? They're almost contractually obligated to hate him 😂
Now imagine those guys make some wide open shots.
The fact that all these plays you shown on the open 3 that luka created for his teammates where BRICKS and he still got 15 assists is crazy 😮💨
Yea but he’s selfish when his teammates don’t hit the shot or at least that’s the fake ass narrative they try and push
@@ye87 yeah but he has a reason to be, I mean his team just looks God awful without him and when he plays he always gets double teamed and a guy or 2 is open and when he passes, theres a higher chance of em bricking the shot than making it, I'm glad he's gotten a decent big in Lively who could develop with him but he needs bigger guys at other positions and if Kyrie comes back good and stays healthy they could make a big run in the playoffs
The fact that Luka can casually break the assists record in about 60 of the 82 games per season if his teammates were knockout shooters is just absurd to me.
fax
plus he was getting doubled all night and still dropped 50
As a mavs fan I often have to remind myself to not get numb to Luka's greatness. Also, happy for my boy Brunson making history on Christmas as well.
Yeah it's ridiculous, one of those things you can't possibly get used to though.
@@HoopVenue You'd be surprised. It takes big moments in a game like this on Christmas or that 60 point triple double against the Knicks where he hit that put back to tie the game to really bring me back to earth. I'm so used to 30-35 point triple doubles from him. He's my MVP regardless of the outcome
Mann... the way Brunson is balling in New York - id rather have him over Kyrie... nontheless- hope Kyrei comes back soon!
The mavs could have had brunson...
@@antonquirgst2812 Brunson's durability and the contract we could've had him on is the reasons I prefer him over ky but that aside I'd take ky over him especially playoff time. Ky scoring more versatile and he play makes for our role guys better than jb. I'm super happy he got the stage to be "the guy" tho. He deserves it
Lets not forget his 4 stls and 3 blks! He played great defense too.
They need more practice the team is costing him assists he should’ve had 20 + assists Christmas night!!!!!
@@Ron420-pt4kj come down mate, they had some injuries and Kyrie still out. he is putting this numbers but not driven/getting fouled too much, his body is ok, he is in great shape. they need to be ready in february, this team can do a lot of damage in the playoffs.
I wouldn’t say “great” defense, but if Luka can even do average defense with as all-time-great as his offense is, that’s more than enough lol
thank you for shortening those words, really make you look like a true fan
Definitely far great defense
Yeah, him and Jokic have solved basketball. I mean we've seen players put up monstrous numbers before, but everybody else looked like a tremendous athlete or freak of nature while doing it. Those two look relaxed and almost casual, other than being tall they look like normal human beings.
You have many jokic sized guys where you live? 😂
I think he means their style of play. Where you see Jordan or James flying high or playing hyper aggressive on some possessions, Joker and Luca play at like a 70/100 the whole game. Very casual yet very deadly. They don’t force anything they just make the right play nearly every time.
@@hasantylou7670 Sorry, I kind of assumed people can read english whan I said "other than being tall". My bad
giving us too much credit fr we stewpid@@SP-nx8qx
@@hasantylou7670that dumb comment make you feel good about yourself? 😂😂
He’s gotten even better this season which is crazy
Just keeps getting better every time people question how he can improve.
Would not be surprised to see him averaging a 40pt triple double in a few years
now that would be insane
@@stevelau7694 what are you 11 lmao I will destroy you with basic logic and basic respect for Luka and the fact that he actually wants to win a ring if you wanna tell me how he could actually average a 40ppg triple double. It’s a bummer that I feel safe letting you know that NBA 2K on easy mode is not reality
I mean Luka already averaged 37 ppg so far this season....
@@bkrendan12
We don’t have to wait to say it, Luka Doncic is ALREADY one of the greatest players of all time.
If he gets himself a ring, who do u think would go down as a better mavs player, dirk or luka?
@@blang1336if he gets a ring, I’d say Luka. And this is coming from someone who is life long Mavs fan and loves Dirk
@@blang1336it comes down to who has less flaws, and that’s luka. but they’re both great in their own right so it’s like a 1A 1B thing
Lol. NBA foolishly said LeBron was better than Kobe in '07. Yet had won nothing😂 @@blang1336Luka at this age is better than LeBron at his age so if the nab wanted to crown their daddy James than Luka is already one of the greatest of say top 30 -35
@@E4MB Nah, I would say Luka if he stays a Mavericks and win a ring. He most likely have more MVPs, more all-nba 1st team, more all star, more everything if you think about it. He will just beat every franchise record.
Luka is literally the reason I got into the NBA at 33 years old 😂 best player in basketball right now
Fr
He didn’t make the playoffs last year 😂😂😂
@@TennesseeTipSo?
Nah joker is better, it’s close but he was robbed of that third mvp.
His DEFENSE was good in this game and not one mention of it.
Exactly The media only uses it to negate some stars while totally ignoring it when they do something great. Bottom line is, a great defender who can’t score may only make 20 million while a great scorer who can’t defend can be a max player. Example, Dillon brooks vs Trae young. Joker and Gianni’s are the face of the NBA and until they aren’t Luka will always get hate. At least we are aware.
when you become a father, there is no playing around more. this is luka with a motivation.
He has to set an example for little Gabriella and Devin to follow.
he has to make money for the family. no wonder why he pays more attention to detail after being a father. there is a little girl in the family to feed. every missed assist/shot means a little bit worse contract after the current one ends.
@@berryesseen you on some latrell sprewell shit? He made like at least 30 million after taxes at this point (another 40 guaranteed in the future) and that is not counting endorsements and other endeavors. that should even put generations after his daughter through life.
@@thelastjerkbender2505is that example on how to never sniff a finals and not make the playoffs? He is fantastic at that.
Every time I watch a vid from you or other content creators like thinking basketball about Luka, it puts luka's game into perspective. HOW IS HE ONLY 24?
Dude reads the game like a 36 year-old with multi-NBA finals experience, it's astonishing.
Luka has played pro basketball over seas since like 16...
@@HoopVenue it makes perfect sense, Luka has been playing pro since 16yrs old...
so happy for dereck lively
Same, he's been an amazing piece.
He’s honestly on track to become the best offensive player EVER.
Better than Jordan ?
@@user-gj4zr6bd6xhey man. Legends come and go, doesnt mean they're forgotten, just new ones move in.
@@user-gj4zr6bd6x I mean on track. At 24 Luka has done more offensively then MJ.
2018 lebron over anyone
@@lorandmazllami9448 ON TRACK
He’s genuinely one of the most talented players out there. Seriously, he’s unbelievable
The easiest 50 pt game a player has ever had in the association. Enjoyed your breakdown sir.
Nothing Luka does is easy.
@@Lee-fc3yf Yeah putting on a headband and your shoes before each game is soo hard.
@@trobtx3538 I'm not one for fashion or aesthetics but destroying KD and Booker with an offensive masterpiece takes extreme skill.. His 3 percentage is up with Curry and his passing game with Magic... His defense is improving dramatically. By the time he's 25 this kid will have the command of all facets which is frightening. Hope gets the props for his hard work.
@@Lee-fc3yf Im aware big fan of his just clearly making a sarcastic comment because you use hyperbole
@@trobtx3538 Kids these days cant take a joke😂
Luka is almost perfect but that Christmas Day game gave me genuine appreciation for the mavs head coach and the team as a whole for working with Luka so well.
Luka to Lively looks like it's gonna be a nasty problem for the rest of the NBA.
Absolutely love the pairing, Dallas is building something special for sure.
For the next 10+ years hopefully.
and to think Dallas never had a really good center to pair with him, if KP stayed healthy it might have been it. They were so good together on the little time he was able to be on the floor.
@@ouicertes9764 I think Lively is what they hoped KP would be in Dallas. Maybe it was injuries...but for whatever reason it seemed like KP wanted nothing to do with paint points. That's where Lively is living.
And it would be nice if Lively develops a 3ball...he doesn't need it. He can become a HOF player if he develops a mid-range game & some post moves.
But the Luka & Lively pick n roll is already pretty elite.
I was all for the Capela trade, glad they didn't pull the trigger.
The way he makes this game look just too easy tells the story of how amazing this guy is.
You’re dope bro, no click baited titles and videos are great and I love the breakdown analysis! Subbed and hope you get the attention you deserve man💯💪
MVP MVP MVP 🔥🔥🔥 so many pieces hurt and he keeps this team afloat like he has since the moment he got here he’s entering his prime he is completely unguardable as a jokic a giannis a curry or even a lebron it’s his world we’re all just witnessing an all time great 🔥
When you said "at just 24", I had what did he say moment. I knew what Luka's age was before. But its still Wild to me how he is just 24. I mean are'nt players supoosed to peak around 27? where does Luka even go from here?
It's incredible, and he was doing these things at 20 as well!
Bros gonna start averaging 40,20,20 at this point😂
Fr his prime began at 18 😂
obvious answer is managing his focus, and defense, as he already improved conditioning and 3pt shooting. But the sad thing is, he's been ready to compete for several years, but Dallas FO has kind of fumbled the bag with roster construction by trading the bank for KP in is rookie year. This rookie big is the best big he's ever played with.
"Like he completely solved basketball". Luka's level of play is too tactical. You love to see it!
this is such a great analysis! thanks for the great overview and slowing it down for me to comprehend all the things that are going on in a game!
I'm really glad you enjoyed, thanks for watching!
Dereck lively was exactly what the mavs needed
I see the parallels between some games and the way he looks at the court, so beautiful
Awesome video! Very well done breakdown of Luka and how dominant he is!
I have to remind everyone that argues that Luka is not a generational talent, that he is doing this at TWENTY FOUR YEARS OLD. He is a generational talent and honestly, underappreciated by media. And he is averaging 8.8 FTA per game versus Giannis and Embiids 11.3+ FTA per game. Raw perfect talent that kid has
And with the number 1 pick in the 2018 NBA draft the Phoenix Suns select…….Deandre Ayton! 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Truly one of favorite Luka breakdowns. Well done.
Only the 2nd game in NBA history where a player has scored at least 50 Points and had at least 15 Assists. Luka also had 7 Stocks in the game, Michael Jordan only had 2 games in his career with at least 50 Points and 7 Stocks, and in those two games Jordan only had a combined total of 6 Assists. Doncic now has 2 games in his career with at least 50 Points and at least 5 Stocks. Kobe never had more than 5 Stocks in a 50 point game, and he only had 5 once, he also had 4 Stocks once. LeBron has never had more than 5 Stocks in a 50 Point game, *and just like Luka he's done it twice in his career.* *LUKA IS GENERATIONAL* 🌠
If he remains healthy he will be the goat 🐐 because he can play this style well into his 40’s
Yea doesn't need lateral movement, running speed or jump athleticism, he plays like he's already 35 years old
theyre playing basketball hes playing chess
He needs a lot more to be called goat in the future... a lot. But he is up there with his generation.The mavs have no chance winning titles if everything is about doncic
Amazing analysis!💯
This is more of a breakdown of luka which I really appreciate from you
He really takes maximum advantage of his size. When Phx was sending the second defender at him on the pick and roll he easily throws it over the top of the double. When he does his step back he puts a huge amount of distance between himself and the defender. He is fun to watch.
I love These breakdowns 😄
insane breakdown! love it
Glad you enjoyed!
Real great video man. Wow.
Thank you!
Great commenting. and I don't have a lot of time to watch. Basketball and Luka is one of my favorite so thank you so much. I. I just subscribed
Thanks, glad you enjoyed!
Awesome breakdown
Good god this is insane, I hope Kyrie gets well so they can win this thing
a Western conference finals series btw the Mavs and the Nugs will be EPIC. If the Mavs can somehow score home advantage over Denver they can come out on top!
@@andyboerger that would be awesome, also I am Croatian so if either Jokic or Doncic won I wpuld be extremely happy althought I would want it to be Luka just to get his first ring
@@mirkecWii a lot depends on Kyrie, and also home court advantage. Having a home court at high altitude is a HUGE advantage for Denver.
Win this thing? 😂😂😂
@@TennesseeTip its very much possible
The Mavs drafting Lively has to be one of the best draft picks of last years draft. His impact has been immediately and is a perfect pair with Lukas game. They compliment each other so well.
Dudes only 19 yet seems so mature. Love that we have a young and full size big man
I hyped him up pre draft, and caught all kind of slack for it. I kept the receipts though. The Mavs didn't just get a steal, they earned it. The tank, at the end of last season, could lead to multiple chips, down the road.
THIS!! Its been so long since the Mavs had a good big (shoutout Tyson Chandler)
So well they lost to the Cavs without Mitchell Garland and Mobley. Probably won’t even make the playoffs again this year. Seems to be Lukas style these days. Stat padder
He has been the best offensive player this season by a landslide. The crazy thing that has occurred this season is that Luka so far statistically is the second best shooter in the league. I wonder if he can keep shooting 39% from three for the entire season.
This commentary was really good!
Glad you enjoyed!
Luka is already one of the best passers of all time. I get the NBA league pass every year just to watch every game he plays and is worth the price alone.
Excellent analysis!
Thank you!
Great video
amazing video🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thank you!
Luka is the best offensive player ive ever seen in my life. If he becomes an above average defender he will be the greatest basketball player ever.
Cuban struck gold when he picked Luka in the draft and it was right when Dirk was on the way out..Just amazing!
Luka gonna bolt to top 10 of all time as soon as he gets a ring
Good video👍
This was a good video and dang he really has figured the game out completely it looks like
Glad you enjoyed!
Great vid HV, who would u say peaked higher this version of Luka or peak harden ?
Man that's tough. I do like how Luka's in-between game gives him another layer, as well as the ability to operate out of the post/from a standstill inside the arc. Harden's athleticism is really hard to overlook though. I want to see Luka sustain this 3P% over an entire season, and that'd probably be enough to comfortably lean his way.
what i like themost is how passive KD is on most of those attacks...either standing still where he is supposed to be or just walking casually to the basket...nuts
Fire vid
50 and 15 assists is insane
Basketball Reference needs to add The Father to Luka’s nicknames, especially since he just adapted KD last night
"The Father" is so tough lmao
i wish this would catch on
Yea luka go crazy!
im happy basketball youtubers like hoop venue see what mavs and luka are doing to these teams nba medie refuses to even look at them
he slows the game down and plays offense on his terms he is amazing
Great breakdown
Glad you enjoyed!
"real simple step back" 😳
Luka makes it look like he's a college player playing at the YMCA.
That he is doing this to the greatest players in the world shows how next level his mind is. The mind of Larry Bird and the physicality of Magic
He has a way of making it look effortless. I know his understanding of the game and reading of the court is unparalleled, let alone his passing (out of this world)and his 3 point game is deadly accurate. But somehow, seeing this guy play feels like seeing an OK dude playing for fun with friends. He has a way of making the entire game feel more relaxed. And I know this is just optics, but the fact that he looks "normal" (except for his height, ofc, but surrounded by tall guys he feels normal) and he is not super muscular or athletic, lends more to the image (I can´t understand why some people criticise him for that at the level he is playing).
The likes of Jordan, Kareem, Wilkins, with bulging muscles 40+ inch verticals and out of this world dunking prowess made (in my eyes) basketball feel like an unattainable feat only reserved for some olympian level of demi-god creature. And along come this Slovenian and this Serbian looking lanky, even untrained at times, and in the case of Jokic so careless about all the glamour surrounding the game and almost unaware of how great he is... it is refreshing.
This guy is already an all time great. The definition of "sleeper build".
This is exactly what was so exciting about Luka. He is already so good and he has like 5+ years to go before we see the final product. This is just the proof of concept phase of Luka. He is going to take the whole sport to another level and does so without jumping out of the gym. A certain Steph Curry did a similar thing and changed the game... Luka is on that trajectory. There is not much you can do about him or stump him in a game. He reads the defense like an open book...
Luka is the best passer in the NBA right now and also a top 3 scorer
Love your break down, makes me aware of the iq side of the game, really interesting
i think with kyrie on the floor, the mavs would be the best team in the league this year. luka is killing it
Those videos that pause Luka before he makes his move annoy me... why? because I try to guess what what I would do if I was him, and usually I guess wrong. Luka has made me realise I've been playing basketball wrong all my life, and there are always better and easier options than putting my head down and trying to beat my opponent 1-1.
breaking my mind too cause his chess bot is hard
This is the first I'm hearing of the Luka chess bot, now I'm reading up on it, and it makes too much sense how he anticipates every move in opposing defenses.
LUKA IS TOO GOOD FOR THE NBA!!! MY FAV PLAYER!!!!😍😍
Him and embiid are actually breaking the game this season, definitely should be a front runner for MVP
Both of their numbers are just stupid, league's in amazing hands right now.
Imagine luka and embiid on a same team
@@nook23215Luka for Tobias. Who says no?
luka is levels beyond tobias
luka is levels beyond tobias
Give him the MVP already. Jokic is great puts up similar numbers but it's not the same. They run different offenses. He stands at the foul line 7 ft tall passing 5 feet to cutters for easy layups 10x a game and he's 7 ft tall so rebounds are easy. Luka is literally QBing the offense from everywhere on the court slinging it from corner to corner, behind his back, no look passes every game and he's a PG. A lot of his assists come on much tougher shots like 3's. And many of those potential assists are missed. Luka could probably average 15 assists a game if they had better quality shooters. About time for Luka to win his first MVP and don't give me any BS about standings. Jokic won it when DEN finished 6th and Curry placed 3rd when the Warriors finished 10th. Give the man his dues. Kyrie has been out 2 weeks and Lively a week before last game. They were in 3rd place before those 2 guys went down with injuries. He's carrying a bunch of bench rotation guys, G league players, and making Dante Exum look like the most improved player in the NBA. If Luka doesn't win MVP this year and the Mavs finish top 3 then the fix is in.
And don't get me started on Embiid the free throw merchant. The guy averages about 20 pts a game on legit FG's and 15 free throws a game. Ever watch a sixers game? It's painful to watch a 7 footer flop on the floor so many times a game. He should have a sponsor from Bounty, the quicker picker upper
he quickly became my favorite player for a reason
Lively is the perfect rook for the Mavs.
future top 10 player of all time no doubt
Luka is a dream teammate. Dude is nearly automatic with buckets but also will get 15 assists.
This man’s Tom Brady in basketball 😂 the height and the vision are key
His play reminds me of Bird. Looks slow and derpy but kills you with his game.
Luka is a basketball genius. But your basketball IQ is off the charts as well. Dope video.
Everyone looks so open on these plays
The title of this video is amazing
Glad you like it
Don't forget this is rookie center, imagine peak Luka and experienced Lively.
crazy to see that one of the best players in the nba carries the ball every dribble. i don’t understand how this goes so unnoticed 😂
He is insanely good bruh it’s beautiful
Man i cant help but to call it out, this dude carries the ball so much!
So nice of Luka to give a 50 burger present to his son.
With Jokic and Giannis already having MVPs, was well as Luka and Shai breaking out into that caliper of player, it's a golden age for international players in the NBA. I suppose I should include Embiid, just so that 6er fans don't hate me.
Even though luka is only 24 he has been playing in a pro league since he was 13. Luka already has 11 years of pro basketball experience at 24 years old.
Crazy to think about!
I’m glad Maverick picked up Derek Lively, he reminds me of Tyson chandler, but somehow better, and him playing so well makes Dwight Powell play better, which I personally think we should have got rid of 😂
You have a great eye for the game.
"Tell me you've never seen any other thing than NBA whithout telling me that you've never seen any other thing than NBA".
You gotta make a video about the rookie jamie jaquez jr. of the miami heat the kid is balling right now .
It's all well and good to be athletic, like what most US focuses on, but Europe focuses mainly on the core basics and fundamentals of basketball with high game IQ, you don't need speed if you can read your opponent like an open book.
Just imagine what luka could do with a superstar big man like Anthony davis... He gave lively so many great looks.
This is going to be a little bit all over the place, but it's the only way I feel like I can make sense of what I feel when I watch Luka play. - The fact that he's only 24 and doing this with three to four years until his physical prime is truly scary to think about. I'm a Cowboys fan, but my favorite football player is Peyton Manning because of his IQ. I'm a diehard Mavs fan, and I think the same about Luka. I'm not a soccer fan, but I know Messi is the greatest player ever. Luka, to me, is a combination of Messi, Magic, Manning, Bird, MJ, and Kobe all in one player and any other great player you want to name. I personally feel when it's all said and done, he will be in the GOAT debate, maybe even in three years. It's crazy to witness.
Luka is playing unreal basketball, his basketball IQ is off the charts !!!
He needs a Scotty pippin to compliment him not compete against him.
I honestly think his many of his teammates are chilling out behind the 3pt line and not getting closer to the paint to get that easy 2pt bucket. Watch Larry bird and most of his passing to guys deep in the paint.
They need to get in the range. Michael Jordan would make 85% of his shots and not just wait for the open 3. Let Donic take those long range 3's, He's the skilled player. But he still could try making 2pt buckets more when it's an option
IDGAF, Luka is the best offensive basketball player I’ve watched in 20 years of watching hoops. I’ll die on that hill
Jokic is right there
Jokic slight edge tbh but Luka is younger so he still has time to improve which is wild
Man, since the bubble Luka has been my favorite player, I already put him in my top 3 players of all time (KD, Iverson, Luka) and ppl would laugh at me at the time, now that list doesn’t seem so crazy lol.
Not a constant basketball watcher, but Luka gives me the same feeling I got when I watched prime Iverson.
