I prefaced it with "everyone being their current age" as to why I would take Luka.Premature to say I would take him over Giannis because right now, Giannis is still a better player than Luka. And Giannis is an unbelievable player who we are only holding some playoff failures against, Luka has yet to contend with the weight of those expectations so let’s see what happens.
I mean James Harden is today also a better player than Luka but we are saying we’d rather have Luka because we have a long record of playoff failures vs expectations for Harden.
I’m just saying be patient and don’t make that statement after his best game ever, make it after he’s had some bad stretches and we see how he responds
You'd be silly to take Harden and his 11 years of wear and tear over Luka's 2 years of play.
