The Luka disrespect is crazy man, he was too good so quick that we take him for granted but he’s younger than sga and only 25. He’s on track to match records set by guys like lebron and big O yet he gets overly hated by the media and barely any recognition. NBA as a whole done a pretty bad job of marketing Luka lol.
He’s not a 2 way threat
Luka ain't it bro he's vanilla James Harden at 6'7

Kinda wild that NBA players already believe Wemby is one-of-one. It's been one season and he's already made an indelible impression.

I knew I liked this Trey Murphy kid.
he's really well spoken! Definitely see him hosting a really good podcast
Even if Wemby ends up like Motumbo and never wins a ring, he will still be an all-time type player.
that would be such a disappointment
Doncic vs Ant could be the best rivalry since BirdvsMagic

@@lostinthedub8544 Luka needs to hit the gym and the league get rid of conferences, they are washing the quality of the league and playoffs to much
I think ANT and Jokic are more the rivals from team standpoint.
Lmao Luka is 26 and has basically not improved since his second year
Sad he cant even mention his own teammate Zion cuz its clear his passion aint the same.
Exactly. People forget how HYPED everyone was for Zion. He actually had mini-LeBron level hype coming out of Duke, even with the NCAA tournament loss.
@@valis14 exactly the comment I scrolled down to post myself. crazy how huge that hype was, then several lost or mostly lost seasons... seems we'll never know how good he could have been...
JJ thinks Wemby will never get to the playoffs. Even though Spurs made it 20 years in a row. Get ready to watch the wildest career of all time
If Jokic, Giannis and luka are americans they are for sure the new faces of the leauge.
JJ hating on Wemby
Not sure why. Wemby even did his stupid show. Was his 1st NBA interview. Maybe Bron told JJ to hate on him 😂
All he does is hate on Wemby. Once his cash cow in Lebron dries up. I hope Wemby never comes on his podcast.
So it took 7 years for Jordan to get a ring but he worried about wins and losses for wemby? I see why JJ redick picked Rudy as DPOY…
I can't wait on their rivalry
LUKA DONCIC
He’s a big baby won’t happen
@@maximusorbis2548lebron was and still is known as a big baby so that’s invalid
No
Needs to get to the finals at least and win. He will get his deserved respect when he wins he’s getting treated unfairly in the media because he’s been top 10 since he came in the league and has been top 5 the past 3 years can’t be that great and not win. Plus he’s a euro the nba isn’t gonna praise him.
Ant man
Jokic can do what he's doing for the next 5-6 years. He doesn't rely on athleticism like other players.
Jokic relies on athleticism.
The craziest thing is that we talk or think so much about Victor Wembanyama even though he hasn't even played for 1 month!
This shows that he is the future of this league.
If Anthony Edwards wasn't in the playoffs no one would be talking about him today.
Pretty sure Wemby has player for at least 1 month.
@@penkima4923he means that it's been 1 month since the last time wemby played yet he's still being talked about and very highly as well
ant is simply overrated. This nigga got the best pieces in the league at his disposal. He still has 2 years to create a title for himself but if he doesn't achieve that, he's definitely buried, because everyone knows he wouldn't do what he's doing anywhere else than in Minnesota
Trey Murphy could be the best player on the Pels. He needs to step up next year.

Not Luka he don’t play defense
@@nitoshadowthe playoffs have been showing otherwise
They aren’t from the US and are boring and ugly. Don’t come with the hate I’m just telling the truth. Look how fast the league moves on from Tatum because he checked all the boxes except one being boring as hell.
Ant and Wemby are being pushed as the faces of the league for a reason they check all the boxes and the guy after those two is Tyrese Haliburton.
It's a new era and it's a fun one at that
Fitted hat screaming Trey Murphy I don’t fit you!!!!! 😂
Its a snapback smh
@@alexanderyoung7358 smack back dinner wrap same thing silly rabbit
WEMBY. There is no other.
That's Wemby's problem. Ant has the teammates to start winning rings at age 22. Very few other superstars have had that luxury. That might make Ant the GoaT, because it's just counting rings.
I thought the thumbnail was Pierre at first from Notb
The NBA hasn’t done a bad job of marketing Luka. Luka has done a bad job of marketing Luka.
If you treat basketball like it’s a 9-5 job, then people will give you the evening off.
this needs to be said about Zion
Bros was playing pro ball at 16. He's probably more obsessed than have the names on that list. That's a horrible excuse
I mean in Europe he is huge. I am not just talking about the basketball regions such as the Balkans Greece Spain France and so even in Germany that isn’t to interested in basketball you see a Doncic jersey here and there in the summers and also a bit of media coverage.
Trey is a brilliant guest
Paolo Banchero
he gonna be special if he continues getting better.
The guy who can't defend, rebound or score efficiently? Lol
@@GeronimoPlaz that why he need to continue getting better lol
Yo Trey you need to get your 2k rating up shooting wise because you torched the league the last two months of the regular season
If we're being honest, it's Wemby & Luka and THEN Ant.
People forget how crazy good Wemby is just cos he's on a bad team, and even Luka.
Put Luka in Minnesota and he would've been the runaway MVP.
Luka is 25 years old with zero rings, just like most other superstars have been. Ant has the team to win three rings by the times he's 25.
@@penkima4923 It's not rocket science to think about the fact that basketball is a TEAM sport & it takes a collective effort & the right pieces to win a chip. Luka never had a team fit enough to win it all, while Ant clearly has the better advantage in that aspect. Measuring players' level/greatness based off of rings is stupid.
@@penkima4923 And that means nothing. Ant or Wemby aint winning before 25 either. Wolves are over the cap and will have to cut players.
Zion should really be in these discussions but his health and weight have held him back. Before Wemby he was the most hyped prospect coming into the league since Bron
he takes basketball for granted. When you use the season to get in shape for the playoffs and everyone praises you, there is a problem.
I am actually a Zion fan and it is really a pain seeing him not to live up to his ceiling 🥲
@@eugenesatimbre4611 agreed
same for Ja, health and mental issues... 1-2 years ago we were talking about him in the same breath as all these top young guys
*Rocky theme song starts playing*

Ant getting love but yet hasn’t played a team that can guard him
There’s a reason Trey Murphy III is my favorite player
Did JJ shutdown Wemby talk ???
He always does. Bro is racist against aliens 👽
lmao i noticed it
Yeah lol I noticed Americans love praising their new national hero Anthony Edwards. They can't accept the fact that Wemby is better, younger, and a generational player
The top 4 players I think are pretty much set. In no order : Jokic, Luka, Giannis, Embiid. Question is who’s the 5th guy ?
At some point we gotta take post season Embiid into account. The dude is always either hurt or can’t convert his play style to the post season. He hasn’t ever gotten past the second round and he’s playing worse teams than what’s in the west. I think Anthony or Shai are better than Embiid personally
@@Aaveroth i would agree, i think its Jokic, Luka, Giannis, small gap, Tatum, Ant, Shai, Embiid, small gap, etc.
top 7 has to be those 4 plus Ant, Tatum, Shai.
@@Aaveroth Agreed bt his peak is so high that we also cant take him out the convo.
@@Aaverothwhich is weird because embiid is a hooper dude is a menace. I don’t know why it is so hard for him to destroy in the playoffs, I think it is just a matter of time for him tho.

New Orleans should trade Brandon Ingram so Trey Murphy can step up
It's Wemby. Ant, Luka etc.

Absolutely not, he was never better than Luka
he will be top 10 next season, his short few games back showed that

@@Shortballa11 he is playing defense, what are you even watching?
@@banimeclips10 He'll never shake that narrative. People still talk about Dirk like he plays no D even though every metric shows he was an average - above average defender.
The luka disrespect is CRAZY
We all know why luka isn't respected in this league. Eminent was not by black rappers for being better at THEIR THING and luka is the same.
Racism at its finest, the NBA is only meant for black people and other race should respect the league
The most important thing for superstars is the skill-level of their teammates, and Luka hasn't had the team some other superstars have had.
I'm still in shock the Twolves beat Nuggets by 45 points in a game many expected them to lose. Whether Minnesota wins game 7 or not, they're a major contender for the next several years to come.
The Nuggets forfeited game 6. Or to be more accurate, Jokic forfeited, because he is the whole team. Jokic won them three straight games, and made a choice to preserve energy for game 7 at Denver.
But the Wolves making it a 7-game series shows that they are a true contender. Even though the Nuggets have just one all-star, versus two for the Wolves, and the Wolves have the DPotY, and his handpicked point guard, and another elite two-way player in Jaden McDaniels.
@penkima4923 Yeah, you're naming every threat the Twolves have found and made. Let's not pretend like everyone wasn't flaming Minnesota when they traded the farm for Gobert. Let's not pretend like nobody predicted they'd hold the Nuggets to a 7 game series or that they'd even make it past the first round this year.
You're talking like all of that is a given, and none of it is.
@@rileymcphee9429 "Let's not pretend like everyone wasn't flaming Minnesota when they traded the farm for Gobert."
Everyone called the Gobert-trade foolish, even though in hindsight there were signs of a good trade.
"Let's not pretend like nobody predicted they'd hold the Nuggets to a 7 game series"
Ant was the best player of the Nuggets-Wolves series a year ago in 2023, and the the Nuggets players said the Wolves was their toughest match-up last year. This year the Wolves played the best defense in the league, so JJ Redick among multiple other voices, had the Wolves beating the Nuggets before the series started. Also, based on the fact that Murray is injured, and the way they played versus the Lakers.
"...or that they'd even make it past the first round this year."
Not sure what percentage of people had them advance through the first round, but it must've been closer to 50 % than 0 %.
@@penkima4923 that worked out didn't it lmao. There is always excuses for Jokic. He lost a game by 45 which is the highest difference in a playoff game by a mvp and people were talking about him sitting up the entire fourth quarter (which wasn't true) instead of being on him. He shot 46% from field game 7 and shooting 20% from three when majority where open. When the wolves were making a come back he started forcing threes and din't take over like the super star he is and sure his teammates weren't doing much but being "the best offensive" big men like many highlighted he didn't take over the game. Also blowing a 20 point lead in game 7 at home is embarrassing so I hope people start criticizing Jokic a little more because he isn't perfect like he is portrayed by the media
@@motivationhub9534 Some of those three were heavily contested. Some were open, but it was risky to take them, because they were gassed. And Murray was slightly injured.
The reason why I refuse to criticize Jokic, is he seems like one of those players lacking his first all-star teammate from starting to win rings every season. The Wolves will win the title this year because of Gobert's defense, and Jokic still led both teams in points, rebounds, assists and steals in the series against them. They say Ant is the second coming of Kobe, but Jokic outplayed him by a wide margin.
Ant just proved it. It's Wemby ! ^^
Zion Paolo wemby haliburton
jj no world beater but solid career for sure
Luka 77, but he need to stop complaining ...
Imagine if KAT was traded to Spurs and played with Wemby
he'd still be KAT and Wemby would still be Wemby. What's your point?
a team with Wemby doesn't need KAT
Alperen Sengun tbh
how about zion???
Anyone else think JJ talks way too much on his podcast? Literally 90 seconds of him yapping to finally ask the question ffs. Makes it almost unlistenable for me tbh.
Luka Ant Wemby Shae and Zion are the best young players talent wise. Ant seems the most robust physically.

Dang Zion supposed to be in that conversation but he chose to eat Churros all season 🥲
We by by a mile!
Start the video and JJ takes a minute and a half to ask a question that needn't take 10 seconds.
Yeah this dude always drags out crap and never gets straight to the point it's annoying
This is why most ex-players' podcasts feature a communications professional as a moderator and host.
100%. I can't listen to his podcast because of it. Every question is so long-winded with him yapping on for about a minute when as you say it should only take 10 seconds or so.
Tatum!! The disrespect is insane 🤦🏽♂️
