Crying can be good sometimes, try !

@Marshall I wish they make a youtube video where it describe which method is best: Fundamental Hoopers or Athletic Hoopers?

Because Europeans prefers skills and technique over physicality, and white boy obviously ain’t gonna be better than black people in physicality

@SlowlySloth dallas is not that popular its underated

think of this, say luka wasnt traded and stayed with the hawks. the hawks would be elite and the mavs after dirk retired would be worse then any other team. ok yes dallas is very populated but does it matter much? not really, in texas theres 3 teams in the nba so i dont see why yall are saying “dallas is so popular”. plus people dont have much power here due to our winter storm. and if your saying that luka isnt clutch or dangerous, go back to in the bubble when luka threw up that stepback 34 footer to win the game. thats not clutch? or what… plus if team record matters, then why is beal a all-star, the wizards are 13th.

U don't have to be cluch is just that fans whanted more luka than dame and it doesn't matter if the Blazers on 4th in the west standing to be in the All-Star it's not about your team being good it's about the specific player being good

yesterday game end this conversation 😍

@Uzu Maki and black

Facts

u contradicted urself if there are players that are better than him he doesn't deserve it

maybe because he's not american

luka sucks dame is way better

@Austin Sterling Couldn’t have worded it better!

Yo fax we could of had an easy 2 wins

@Milda Malinauskaite that looks like star numbers to me. He wasn’t expected to be a superstar. We needed a star which is what he is but he also has the capability to have superstar games. We have Luka as the superstar. Porzingus is doing his job. We just need our games to stop being post poned

23 points 50 percent from the field 42 percent from three rbounds 8.5 blocks 1.7

Oh i forgot ill calcualate ok

@Cpj 06 it’s his third year dummy. Plus, most of his RELIABLE teammates got injured and lost Seth Curry. Ironically after the blazers and mavs lost Curry, they have stepped backwards.

@Wakanda DQ is Luka even in the playoffs check for me

@Cpj 06 ummm...luka got the nail bitter. I like lillard, but luka is out of this world.

@Wakanda DQ dame deserved it more hands down. But Luka has a bigger fan base so that’s why he got the spot

@Cpj 06 L

@Hasani Houston bi

Sus

@Cpj 06 he is a pass first in player... in the all star game he will show off lots of flashy passes and assists for player... fucking bozzo watch him play before you come at him 🤡

@User how is Luka entertaining.

@zShadx V are they even in the playoffs.

Cpj 06 Lilard cant do anything else but shoot. He is good for points but not good for entertainment

@Cpj 06 well only bcz he's 30 yo already and this is his prime rn and doncic has the exact same sttss as him and hes only 21

@User wdym?? How are game winners not entertaining?

Lilard cant do anything else but shoot. He is good for points but not good for entertainment

And if the pelicans offer to trade zion williamson for luka.Mavericks would've done it in a less than a heartbeat

@LEWOKE JAMES fax

@Dan Raul Fax as a luka fan, you shouldn’t ever think of trading luka even if he’s 37 because that man is on path to become greatest mavs player if he continues developing the way he is and also will end up in hall of fame if he doesn’t suffer an injury or fall off in his 4th year which 0% chance of happening

Huh...really interesting point. Never thought about it like that but that's so true. Im a Mavericks fan and I wouldnt even accept that trade myself, hell nah

NO WAY YOU ACTUALLY THINK HE FLOPS 🤡 🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️ YOU DONT WATCH BASKETBALL I CAN TELL

Because luka white

@micheal olusanya stop putting this on the team to be a all star starter ur team doesn't have to be good

@micheal olusanya is not about the team u idiot

@micheal olusanya even why do an All Star game in the middle of the season? Like wtf of an retardation is that on it self? In my humble opinion a true All Star game should be played off the entire season, so nobody could argue about who was better or which team was better, because all stats would already be there on the table. So which makes the entire NBA All Star system illogical and immoral from the get go.

@micheal olusanya i don't know man, sound like just opinions to me. it's still like 50% fan voting or something. maybe next time you guys should vote harder for your candidates. LMAO

Point me to a time when Luka was swept out of the first round. Ill wait.

@Dead3yeWolf They were tanking to get him in 2017 and changed their full roster in 2018 to suits him u dumb bozo.

@Dead3yeWolf Dude we are not hating on Dame, stop Maverick fans watched Dirk get snubbed his entire career.

@You Mad Bro how and dame had 43 points and 16 assists. Bias as hell

@Dead3yeWolf Those games were before Luka starting shooting better from 3. Look what happened last game even with the L because Dames teammates actually showed up Luka outplayed him.

@Dead3yeWolf yeah and i gave you some context about those h2h. Mavs were a bottom 5 team in luka's first year. How do you think they drafted him 3rd? Cox they were shite the year before that too. Portland at the same time were a wcf team. Last year, mavs beat blazers 2-1 and dame was playing all the three of those games. Oh so injuries are only applicable to dame and cj? Luka was out for 3-4 weeks in total as he twisted his ankle vs miami, kp was minutes restrictions and no back to backs as he was coming from a year layoff of achilles tear. When kp and luka both played, mavs were on pace to get the fourth seed and they both missed double digit games. This year kp has missed 12 out of 27 games, 5 of their starters got layed off for three weeks due to covid protocols where 4 off then had to quarantine in denver with no ball practice and no training access. Luka has won every single major honour in europe and for his national team, he is 21. Last year, he made mavs relevant and a playoff team again. All of his resume suggests he is nothing but a winner. Damian lillard is 30 years old, 9 years older, may I know what exactly has he won in this league? Thank you.

@Monsieur Bacteria but clearly, luka is more skilled than Dame.

well its the nba ... what do u expect . popularity > skill

lmfaooo fear from what? Man hasn't done anything in his career but get swept lol

Wow hating on luka here too, luka had 2 rookies starting for 4 games in a row, how many has dame had???? None, you're comparisons don't add up. It must be hard being a blazers fan, a dying team that no one watches

@wenksification Wtf does this have to do with luka starting over dame? Dame is playing better this season and his team is winning so that is that.

@Kellen Meckling plus a person who has dame the lame as their DP... LOL

@Kellen Meckling doesnt matter. dame will never reach beyond the 2nd round. he's 30 now and he has how many years left? prolly 2-3 years max? oh well. 2 years straight luka is all nba. so you can suck it already. luka has the better stats at 21 years old averaging a triple double. im not gonna argue and stoop down to your level because you prolly dont watch mavs games.

@wenksification do you seriously think you can win an argument about players missing games? lol the blazers have had multiple games where dame is the only starter left and he actually wins

@Kellen Meckling lol. maybe you didnt know that we had 5 players miss 9 games. before the covid protocol, mavs were top 5 in the west.

@Gadjiglo Znone you talking to me or him?

Please next time try to hide your stupidity. Thanks.

Media and players also voted him in. You saying there wrong? His suck ass team played him out of the MVP race. He is getting 29/9/9 if his team was top 5 in the west he would be MVP favourite. They are the worst team in the west without Luka

Stick to handegg sport, basketball is not for you.

"so much better" keep lying to yourself

Cap. Offensively, they're about the same. Lillard is a better shooter, Luka a better playmaker. Defensively, Luka is about average, Dame is one of the worst defenders in the league.

@MOHAMMED WAFI u mean dame wins all by himself without help

think of this, say luka wasnt traded and stayed with the hawks. the hawks would be elite and the mavs after dirk retired would be worse then any other team. ok yes dallas is very populated but does it matter much? not really, in texas theres 3 teams in the nba so i dont see why yall are saying “dallas is so popular”. plus people dont have much power here due to our winter storm. and if your saying that luka isnt clutch or dangerous, go back to in the bubble when luka threw up that stepback 34 footer to win the game. thats not clutch? or what…

@harry mcmillan Luka does not have the same amount of Game Winners as lillard in post season

@Monsieur Bacteria I think you’re the one that’s crazy. Without dame, trailblazers still got McCollum, Carmelo and Nurkic. Without Luka, mavs got NO ONE. KP who is the embodiment of an injury and THJ who is the embodiment of inconsistency (legit went 0-12 last month in a game) 🤣

@Chris Keesee I get what you're saying that just because someone is better all round it dosent make them better. But Lillards only advantage over Luka is shooting. Luka is still as good of a scorer. They both dropping 29/30 a game. So if they are equal scorers then you have to look at who does more all around and Luka is a better passer, rebounder and defender. He is an all round more impactful player and more dynamic. Lillard is a better shooter but Luka still scores just as well. If Luka was averaging 15/9/9 And Dame was putting up 29/5/6 Then I would day Dame is better even though Luka does more all around. But they are both dropping 30 a game. So that's when Lukas all round better ability puts him over Dame.

@SiamHomeSource ok, some rebounds may be uncontested (everyone gets a number of rebounds that way), then what about assist and points?, are you gonna say assists are meaningless too? Dončić runs the entre offense of the mavs, while leading them in points, Assists, rebounds and steals... Gtfoh little kid

@Felipe Cabrera if you consider the 95% of uncontested rebounds from missed 3s the same as fighting a 7 footer or 2 for the rebound under the rim then you're right triple doubles not overrated, but I deal in reality, it's not a video game little kid.

@SiamHomeSource dude Luką has the same stats as Dame as a 21 yo while Dame is 30 yo. You trippin

@SiamHomeSource chatting shit

@SiamHomeSource pls explain why triple doubles don't matter and how these are empty...

nah

Who is "they" you muppet?

Or fans like him more, maybe vote more instead of thinking of theories on why dame sucks

Faxs I got Robbed

think of this, say luka wasnt traded and stayed with the hawks. the hawks would be elite and the mavs after dirk retired would be worse then any other team. ok yes dallas is very populated but does it matter much? not really, in texas theres 3 teams in the nba so i dont see why yall are saying “dallas is so popular”. plus people dont have much power here due to our winter storm. and if your saying that luka isnt clutch or dangerous, go back to in the bubble when luka threw up that stepback 34 footer to win the game. thats not clutch? or what…

That’s the Mavericks old jersey color from the 80’s they are doing throwback jerseys this year.

@harry mcmillan i hear ya...you repeated yourself but i hear ya...of course ppl gonna choose Luka cuz of youth...im just saying other ppl shouldnt be upset that dame aint starting and luka is...i could argue and say dame couldve started over curry...lets be honest curry just started to get hot these past few weeks dame be good all season so far

@buda1013 wow .7 😂 meanwhile Luka blows him out the water with assists and rebounding. He is also a better defender. Luka is bigger, better passer, better defender, better rebounder, equal scorer, 10 years younger. Dame is a significantly better shooter but that's it. Luka is just objectively more skilled overall than Dame. Despite being a decade younger. Every GM in the league is taking Luka over Dame and it's not close.

@harry mcmillan Dame is the higher scorer by .7...slim margin but higher and they need to cut fan votes out and leave it too only the peers...

But Luka has better skills than Dame 😂 He is a better passer, rebounder and Defender and as good of a scorer. Luka has better stats and is a better all round player Period. The media and players also vote not just fans. So peers do have a say.

30 points and 10 assist? No. His stats is 30 points and 8 assist

think of this, say luka wasnt traded and stayed with the hawks. the hawks would be elite and the mavs after dirk retired would be worse then any other team. ok yes dallas is very populated but does it matter much? not really, in texas theres 3 teams in the nba so i dont see why yall are saying “dallas is so popular”. plus people dont have much power here due to our winter storm. and if your saying that luka isnt clutch or dangerous, go back to in the bubble when luka threw up that stepback 34 footer to win the game. thats not clutch? or what…

The reason Luka is a starter over Dame: Has better stats. Is a better all round player. Period. You're talking crap. If Dame did that he would of course be a starter

Yes and the voting result is a proof that Luka will be All Star Started instead of Lillard

Y r u still joking

L

Pfft

Sad

@Torso Titan so u mean jokic curry beal embid r stat chasers cos they hv put up grt numbers.....dumbass

@Torso Titan stat chaser? Lmaoo. You will never see Luka push someone away for a rebound, you will never see him passing the ball just to get the 10th assist of the game, that is why he is often missing 1 assist or rebound for a triple double. Stop saying bs when you probably don't even watch his games.

@Torso Titan so having great numbers makes you a stat chaser? 😂 I guess everyone is then. Luka leaders the league for contested rebounds for guards and rebounds in the clutch. So it's not just like he is grabbing empty boards.

@Andre Arce Luka is a stat chaser

but it's not 10 years from now, maybe I am hurt but I just don't get it

@Swedish Viking Yeah, i do. Was just funny to me that he missed a game right after your comment. That's all

@A L You do know that KP was resting during the Grizzlies game right? The reason why was because of the game against Boston tonight... He often rests when it’s back to back games lol

@A L Wym?

@Swedish Viking This aged well

As a fellow Mavs fan, we’d be screwed

Luka has better stats and the mavs lost 5 players to covid for a 10 game stretch
