@Dilbythedude@jasonrmcintyre if a series against the lakers, a team that without luka barely woulda beat the suns (yes the rockets woulda lost against the suns too) is rly determining ur opinion on any player ur an idiot lol, thunder played at half speed that series and won
@Dilbythedude@jasonrmcintyre the lakers doubled the man at half court for 3 games and the one game they didn’t double him he had the best game anybody’s had all series. such a meaningless discussion ab who “the best player was” when they wouldn’t let the best player play and still got smoked
@GuitaristJT@JRMaso93@JoshEberley media doesn’t like luka?😭 yea aight lol, also just because they were vegas underdogs doesn’t mean they weren’t better, vegas just priced those series’ horribly the overwhelming predictions by people i spoke to was that luka was gonna beat the wolves
@iamrahstradamus in like a million minutes against the entire nba shai gilgeous alexander won MVP twice and victor wembanyama won it 0 times, idk about you but something tells me that he might be the best player in the league
@Tankseyy@SteveThunderfan assuming he thinks either
1. jdubs gonna be influential in stopping wemby
or
2. shai’s gonna get doubled like he did against the lakers and jdub’s gonna cook
@GuitaristJT@JRMaso93@JoshEberley literally explained why the matchups were easier but okay, if there was a market open for luka to never win an mvp or a championship i’d bet it, let’s see who’s right
@DParkOK nah game 2 is imo, i wouldn’t be shocked if the thunder come out flat today i also wouldn’t be shocked if we’re down 2-1, i would be shocked if we lose
@GuitaristJT@JRMaso93@JoshEberley it’s also because they had the perfect run of teams to play, super young OKC team on their first ever playoff run, super young wolves deep on their first deep playoff run, they got beat down by the first team they saw with the same or more experience than them
@JRMaso93@JoshEberley luka and kobe’s efficiency’s are damn near identical lol, luka is 2 percentage points more efficient on average when you compare their best years. i disagree with ur point holistically, i just don’t think a playstyle as heliocentric as luka’s can win a chip
@JRMaso93@JoshEberley oh luka’s a way better player, just commenting on the 0 accolades but everybody thinks ur the best thing, and maybe prime shaq but i dont think if luka has pau gasol he wins a chip
