This is why I’m taking Luka Doncic over Victor Wembanyama every day. Wemby have the edge defensively, but elite offense, clutch performances, and proven greatness are much harder to replace.
Brunson vs Luka first two NBA finals games
19.0 31.0
3.0 8.5
4.0 9.5
41.7% TS (🤢) 59.3% TS
Everybody can be mid and still win because of roster construction beside Luka
61% blow-by rate in the Finals on 18 drives Wemby defended. Not that this is a useful stat or stat we hear much about anymore.
But we all remember how much it was talked about with Luka vs Boston in the Finals which was 58% btw...
Jokić played like shit, and not a word from the media. SGA played like shit, and not a word from the media. Wemby played like shit in game 1, and Windhorst said he was “low on energy”. Luka with better numbers in the finals, and the whole media does monologues about how he’s the Antichrist.
