Just listened to some draft pods, some from a month ago. They stay mentioning Kevin Porter... @P C H seems like you picked a good one to hitch your wagon to. I'll be watching SC this year for sure
Hoping for a Duke Gonzaga matchup in Hawaii this week. Rui vs Duke guys would be fun
Langford plays today and will play Duke at the end of the month
Waiting for more info on Sekou, specifically his birth certificate

The waiter.
Kukoc was dirk before dirk existed.
He was a solid 3 with the size of a 4-5. Like most euros he had a solid jumper and no defense, but he was also a great facilitator and above average passer.
The Bulls made Toni put on a lot of weight instead of letting him just play his game, again this was during a time when the league was more physical.

Kukoc was a nice player and all, but he was never an All-Star and never made an All-NBA team. He was second team All-Rookie and he won a 6th Man award playing on one of the best teams of all time. Doncic has started his career averaging more points, rebounds and assists than almost every season Kukoc had. He's also a better shooter. He's on track to be rookie of the year. Factor in Doncic being 18 (Kukoc entered the NBA at age 25), and everything points to Doncic being better in every aspect.

Kukoc was a 6’11 SF/PF
Dirk is 7 footer PF
Both played on the perimeter and were excellent marksmen. I’d say they compare rather similarly. Aside from all the NBA accomplishments, games were similar. Kukoc didn’t get a chance to start at all until PIp and MJ we’re gone. Even then it was harder for finesse players to shine in an era were Braun and muscle were more prevelant from your 4’s and 5’s.
Here’s some of Kukoc accomplishments
In today’s game Kukoc would destroy.

Maybe he just means the best Euro player in the NBA pre-dirk? Because, yeah, Dirk and Toni’s games are almost nothing alike.

Kukoc was a 33.5% career three-point shooter. That doesn't come close to even ranking in the top 250 three-point shooters of all time.

Was hoping that's what he meant until I saw what he wrote a few posts up. He's serious

Yes. Pre Dirk you only had Detlef, Petrovic, Kukoc and Raja. When asked how he would fare In today’s games given today’s rules and lack of physical play I have no doubt Kukoc would be up there.
Yet he’s still on the Bulls top 10 for 3pt made, despite only playing 6 seasons here.

Hence the part where I said the Bulls forced Kukoc to gain weight to play a position he wasn’t built for. Kukoc didn’t get the free reigns to just pull up and shoot. He played contained. He wasn’t built to bang with those big bodies in the 90’s and the strech 4 wasn’t a thing back then.

If my math is correct, he averaged less than 1 3pointer MADE per game in his bulls career...not a high bar, and not really a stat to tout about him being top-10 or whatever he is all-time 3pointers made for the Bulls.

Made threes doesn't reflect how good they were at it. MJ was a lousy-to-mediocre three-point shooter for most of his career. His best three-point shooting seasons were the years the line was shortened, too. Pippen was even worse.
