**Official Luka Doncic Thread**

[minnesotachill]

Whether anyone really likes it or not, Luka will eventually fit into the same hobby status that Russell Westbrook and James Harden currently have.

Not a total purist, but give me the original color, silver, green, gold, black and a blue and I am good. I do like the cracked ice versions, but would not lean toward those if buying for PC.

Just the black and gold is enough for me! =)

I do think team colors are pretty sweet, both for solid colors and ice.

For example, I'd rather keep a Trae Red Ice over a Trae Blue Ice for the PC if I had to choose.

Luka interview on ESPN right now, after the commercial

[minnesotachill]

50% of Luka Investors - Don't watch the games- Never seen him play

the other 50% of Luka Investors - see MJ on the Court, and MJ in the hobby


People like myself see James Harden on the Court, and Harden in the hobby
(you can take this as a knock on Luka, but the last time I checked, Harden is really good)

Christmas Day games are so important, because many Luka investors will see him play for the first time. They will tip back a few beers at grandma's. Stumble upon the remote and turn the game on. Tell everyone the story about how Scott from the fantasy football league gave some great advice about investing some big bucks into trading cards of Luka Doncic.

This is the point where you don't wanna lose guys like this. You don't want this guy seeing Luka get destroyed by an aging Lebron. If you got one guy getting nervous and thinking about selling out, you might soon have 2, and then 10, and then 1000...

I believe that minnesotachill believes everything he says. I think most of us just believe differently. I have always thought that if Westbrook couldn't win a championship with Kevin Durant in OKC then he won't ever win one. The only way he will ever win one would be as a support player later in his career, never as a star or superstar. I don't believe Harden will ever get one either because I don't believe the team is more important to him than his own stats. I think they are both amazing players in there own right, elite players matter of fact. What do they have in common though? I will answer it for you, many just don't like them. There is something about each of them that at times rubs people the wrong way. Or maybe that's just how I feel.

Luka has a skill set that is similar to Westbrook in the sense that he can straight stuff the stat sheet every night. Westbrook is so much more athletic though. Being good at basketball doesn't always make you hobby great though. Luka is more likeable and has forced many to consider him one of the future faces of the NBA.

I think that what minnesotachill is underestimating when he makes those comparisons is the fact that Luka is a global sensation, not just an NBA sensation. When you get people all across the world to be excited about what you do then you have separated yourself from the group that are just elite basketball players. Somebody that likes basketball in Italy probably doesn't give a #@#@#@#@ that Westbrook has a 15 assist triple double last night or that Harden was seen at a strip club but I bet they looked to see what their favorite EU stars in the NBA did.

Merry Christmas,

Joe

I have plenty of Luka cards in my collection.

Just last week I made a 30k offer on one that I really like on Ebay.

I'm not here to be the white night in shining armor who strikes down anyone who makes a negative comment about him.

I call it like I see it.

He really doesn't look like he's having much fun out there. I know you guys don't care because you're worried about how much fun you're having checking out the box scores. But I'm just saying, it's something to pay close attention too.

He's been a professional player since 14, so if you really wanna look at it that way, he's in his 6th/7th year in the league.

Grinding it out for that long can take a toll on you, especially when you are built like he is.

So in one week you went from possibly spending $30k on Luka to calling him Jamies Winston of the hobby?

Man I gotta rewatch that game I guess

You're acting like Luka has just lost his passion for basketball after one game..absurd but whatever

Wrong, Luka will go down as one of the all time greats if he can stay healthy. Top 5-10 player ever imo.

He's 21 years old look what he's doing. Harden and Westbrook never sniffed that kind of success until they were 26-27.

He's also got the likeability factor the other two don't have which = hobby favorite.

I've watched basketball a long time and he's on pace to be one of the greatest ever. His own stats even back up the projection. There's been no other white boy that's been as good as Luka since Larry Bird. That also plays a large factor whether people want to ignore it or accept it.

When i watch him play i don't see Westbrook or Harden i see a combination of LeBron, Magic, and Bird.

Luka will win several championships you can just see it in his DNA. He's got that killer instinct and hatred for losing. Most guys don't have that and you can't teach it.

This part right here is literally the only thing anyone cares about, the rest you can save for your memoir. Post pics of your cards or move on, you're trolling a perfectly reasonable thread.

[RogerGodahell]

And i know it's a long season but if Luka does win MVP this season he will be the youngest player to ever do so.

Just common things you know... anyone can do it.

What’s so likable about luka he flops and manufactures contact like harden does but nobody complains about it

He’s a pretty boring player imo

You mean like LeBron? No one whines more than him. Biggest diva in the NBA.
