    Physicality in Europe is 100% more than NBA , what you meant Windhorst is athletic ability...not physicality. They still play defense in Europe. (grabbing/holding all that)
    Doncic had a much tougher time scoring in Europe last year than he does now in the NBA

      That's true. Also, FIBA rules court is shorter and narrower than NBA court, and three point line is shorter for half a meter. Naturally, there is way less space. Whole offense has to work for every basket as there is very few opportunities for iso plays.

    Euroleague needs no advertisement. The games are great, competitive, there's less space on the court so you have to work for every basket, every game is meaningful because the season is much shorter and you always need to qualify for the following round/playoffs. Every team plays collectively within a system. American fans don't wanna watch it? That's absolutely fine, the NBA is obviously another level of basketball. They wanna be biased against European players? Well... That's a little bit less fine, also because there has been a huge number of American high pick busts but somehow the existence of some European players who didn't do good in the NBA is always rubbed in our face and used as a reason not to draft and invest on Europeans. Too bad.

      I had opportunity to watch Vesely live 10 years ago and I still do over TV occasionally. He was super talented player. He even used to play SF and shoot 3s. After Wizards, he could barely hit a free throw. Now he still plays high level basketball, but he is far from what he was and what he could have been.

    • @aleksandarspasic6067
      @aleksandarspasic6067 Před 5 lety +42

      As of Hezonja and Bender, they were never proven on a senior level. Hezonja barely played on Barcelona and when he did, he would just wait for a ball behind 3pt line.
      Bender couldn't even get minute on arguably the worst roster Maccabi Tel Aviv ever assembled. And he was there just because Maccabi's GM and member of coaching staff were Croatians.

      Dirk Nowitzki is the ONLY European star to be the carry a championship team (and be a franchise player). Every other European star has been either a role player or a complimentary star to an American superstar (like Pau Gasol to Kobe Byrant). Most European players that have become stars in the past (including the Gasol brothers) don't seem to have the same competitive drive as some of the top tier American superstars. Not only that but the stereotype about them is generally true: they are high IQ players who are great at offense but suck defensively.

We had the Holy Trinity of Europe: Papaloukas, Spanoulis and Diamantidis. The Spaniard Army world champions: Gasol brothers, Navarro, Calderon.
    And the living legends: Basile, Bodiroga, Danilovic, Rebraca, Jasikevicius, Siskauskas, Turkcan. And also a legendary coach: Zeljko Obradovic.

    Bro... all this news keep coming out about how he's balling... but like coming into the draft wasn't he the euro league mvp and champ!!! I'm not even surprised!! It was just a matter of time. He's been playing against adults since like 19!!

      He made his debut for Real Madrid at age 15.
      At age 16 he was already playing 14 minutes per game (games over here are 40 min instead of 48).
      At age 17 he started showing dominance and at 18 (last year) he won both the Spanish and Euroleague MVP, dominating both championships completely.

    • @zybergis
      @zybergis Před 5 lety

      It's also the responsibility and confidence thing. He was already taking game-deciding shots in REAL MADRID. Imagine there having a bunch of guys, some of whom even used to play in the NBA, and they trust the under-aged baby-chubby boy to decide the games for the team. Everything that and more *before* he was 19.

The Suns, took a guy they think that with NBA coaching can grow into something special... I get it. I thought Luka was a no brainer top 2 pick in this draft. I had him 1 & 1A with Jaren Jackson Jr, actually... but saying how can you even imagine DeAndre Ayton or Jaren Jackson Jr being better than Luka is a little crazy. It's possible... Now, the Kings passing on him for Marvin Bagley III, they will rue the day.

    And he ist just 19 years old, so he still has a lot of time to improve his game.
    The first thing he must do, is to stop causing that many turnovers.
    But that shouldnt be a big problem.

    Teams playing in the euroleague dont just have 2 games per week. You also have to consider that every team also plays games for their country's national cup AND national championships- meaning that they are playing in 3 different leagues simultaneously during one season. Obviously the level of difficulty is not that high in the national cup and national championships (as in the euroleague the best teams in europe compete, but in a national level only the best teams of a country compete), but the teams still have to play more than just 2 games per week. Also, if they make the playoffs in both the euroleague and their national championships (or the knockout games in the national cup) theyll have to play double playoff games than an nba team...

    • @JoshuaFrick3
      @JoshuaFrick3 Před 5 lety

      The Mavs would not of drafted Trae Young at #5. Stupid comparison to link Luka & Trae Young. The Hawks for whatever dumb reason passed on Luka. The Mavs were targeting Wendell Carter Jr, Mo Bamba, or maybe an outside prospect like Mikal Bridges or another big at 5. They were hoping Jaren Jackson Jr would fall to them, because he up until draft night had said he would not sign with Memphis & Mavs were hoping Memphis would pass on JJJ. That didn't happen and ATL's asking price for the #3 pick finally fell at the last second and the Mavs swooped in and took Luka, who I have to imagine was top on their board.

    Hes clearly way better than the other rookies.

      Muse Russell23 thank you for saying it. I resent Luka for some reason because of this, it’s not his fault, but dude had prior practice and grooming to get ready for the NBA, whereas our rookies on play 1 to 4 years of college, then can join the NBA. Even still college/NCAA competition is nothing compared to EuroLeague competition, so either way this dude has had an unfair advantage to me, and he’s being gassed up. I need to see pressure put on this dude before I can give him props.
