Nevertheless, it is a marvelous achievement for such a young player from Europe to be even in discussion of MVP let alone being just decent, even back when Manu or Dirk came to league (in my opinion best foreign players) they were not this good but became good, this kid is good from the get go.

Are we talking about Luka Doncic here? He is an exceptional player even when he was still in Euroleague. A professional player at a very young age and achieving a lot in Europe, it is expected that he will be bigger here in NBA as he matures. The MVP race is tough but I believe he will achieve it soon.

We do know that NBA is different if you remember Toni Kukoč he also have spectacular skills wayback but when he enter the League he just relying
with MJ same with Ginobli who's also have the same caliber back in European league, but with Luka the type of his supremacy in his age it's really
exceptional for sure he will achieve more as he grow and matured he's talent will bring more recognitions.

He already building up that recognition gradually.Setting new achievements and i wont be surprised if this guy would get some MVP award.
What i do like with this guy is on his versatility plus his shooting success percentage no matter what range he's in plus having some
coordination with his team specially with porzingis/kp.Still have a lot of years to progress and might become a legend someday. Cool

I know tree young is a good player and all but imagine being atlanta hawks knowing you drafted luka and instantly gave him up. I remember leading up to the draft he was highly regarded but people are always shy because the the whole darko milicic night.are detroit had to go through.

Luck or whatever you call it, a win is a win, period.

Cavaliers are desperate to win because they are in a losing streak and they got it today, give them some credit for making the right plays and spurs losing to a bad team doesn't mean they are now a bad team also, it is just like that, a player experience an off time, same with the team.
Even if the spurs are heavily favored, it doesn't mean that they are not vulnerable of losing.

It was Sexton and Clarkson stepping up.
But the special mention goes to Kevin Love.
Again with his strong game. Looks like the healing process is over.
30 points with 17 rebounds. Not all forwards can make that kind of number but this is just a normal thing with Love.

Last game against the Rockets was 17 points and 11 rebounds. Despite coming out from an injury he is still playing strong. No signs of mental issues.

Clevland is for sure going to give kevin the best ability to have great games. He will be a valuable trade piece come close to the trade deadline. A contending team would gladly give up a young player or draft pick for love. They are rebuilding young and love probably would like to leave a rebuilding team anyway, he doesnt have many years left to contend

LeBron transcends from being a forward to an all around player and it pays the Lakers well. Right now, LeBron became an efficient playmaker that he is playing the point guard position and their bigmen were the recipient of his plays and accurate passes.

I don't really think saying transcends is the appropriate word to use on LeBron James. First I think to categorize all around player to their role in the court. It's so different the roles and how they play the game. I think that he's an all around player since he came in the league. He's already an elite scorer, he can get you some boards and can pass the ball.

There must be some "change of game" involved with this as well, these type of players didn't existed in the early 2000's and all of 90's, it was still possible in 70's maybe but even 80's were difficult. Game changed to such a speedy one and changed to a level where stars are playing however they want that right now we have a basketball world where teams possessions last less than 10 seconds and stars have the ball at the start of each one, so they either score or assist most of the time since game doesn't slow down too much.

Nevertheless, it is a marvelous achievement for such a young player from Europe to be even in discussion of MVP let alone being just decent, even back when Manu or Dirk came to league (in my opinion best foreign players) they were not this good but became good, this kid is good from the get go.

That is all he needs.
Shooters and big men.
So they just dug the plays they used for Magic and now they are still in good use even with the new era of basketball.
They just need to tweak some of it because now 3 pointers are more reliable and so does the big men which shoots outside too.

In my opinion this is not much of an adjustment for Lebron, he is already doing it in Cavs before Kyrie came to the team.

It is easy to talk about how good Lebron is right now because everyone is seeing how awesome he is playing right now, however if you go back pages and check out what people were saying about Lebron last year you will see that there was a lot of people who lost hope on Lebron and thought he came to LA because he felt like he is done and he wanted his last years to be in Hollywood and grow his business and he stopped caring about basketball.

Not all have the same though but I agree with you.
There is a reason for that and that is because he is not playing much due to his injury.

But there are also optimistic people.
It was Magic who brought Lebron in Lakers and I have the idea about why.
He see Lebron as one who is like him. A playmaker.
He want to see the old Lakers in where he dominated it using his play style.
It is more like passing the torch to him.

That came true. Look how he plays now. He is more difficult to defend because of his play style.
He holds the play and so he could also use it as a hesitation move. Sadly, Magic is not the president anymore of the Lakers.

Spurs is not a team to beat. They are even playing at their worst this season.
Cavaliers winning that game is not because they are lucky. It's a clear upset and congrats Cavs for that.
A 9-15 Spurs and a 6-19 Cavaliers do have a large distance?

This game is like what happened to Miami Heat vs Atlanta Hawks last December 11, 2019.

The whole team Atlanta Hawks thought the game is over when they lead 6 points in the last 1 minute. But the Heat comeback a win in overtime.

I think it's different because in this game the Spurs are the favorites and they loss.
In the game between the Hawks and the Heat, it was the Hawks who are in control in the game but then they allowed the heat to come back and they beat the hawks in the OT and also covered the spread, I'm sure bettors are so happy with what happen.

Spurs vs Cavaliers - underdog won
Hawks vs Heat - favorites won.

it is his second triple double this season

No its not, he already has 8 triple double this season per https://hashtagbasketball.com/triple-doubles/lukadoncic
Also, his current average now is almost a triple double.

points 30.4 rank 3rd
rebounds 9.9 rank 13th
assists 9.3 rank 2.

https://www.espn.com/nba/player/_/id/3945274/luka-doncic

For such a young age but full of talents, I watch the game earlier and see him enjoying with his teammates. He's been well rested from the third quarter and explode again in the fourth, with Porzingris they have a very well chemistry together. Young Luka have a high IQ plus his shooting range really killing
his opponents, he's really become the big asset of the Mavericks franchise.

True that and he will continue to improve as he gets a max contract with the Mavericks.

This is the kind of star that they should keep, he has a good chemistry with his teammates and at the same time, this young hungry team are crushing their opponent, so it's almost a sure thing that they will be in playoffs as long as Luka will remain healthy throughout the season and with his style of play, he will be less prone to injuries.

Doncic was magical for Mavericks last night, triple double with 41 points, to secure win over Detroit, it is his second triple double this season

i see him as one of the best players of all time in a few years period, despite all the effort and performance, he is still on the each game

Dallas will kick-out Clippers easily, if they both hold second and third position prior to play-off, it is just a beginning...
