You watching games or just poppin off from the peanut gallery?been a whole week & apparently that's enough to bump from top 10 to knocking on top 5....
Gotta love it,
Top 5 is stretching, but he’s a Top 10 player no questions asked.
There’s probably not 5 guys playing better basketball through 15 games than Luka though.

I thought entering the season, there was a clear top 11 players in the league, in no order:
Giannis
Bron
Kawhi
Curry
Harden
Embiid
PG
AD
Durant (healthy)
Jokic
Dame
Luka has clearly been better than all of them except for maybe Giannis and Bron.

Magic on fire with this list ...there’s no way to interpret the whole thing in any way that makes sense

You can see the AGENDA from @tyisla when it comes to Luka. Posts for weeks about him.

Luka’s playing like a top 8 player no doubt. Given his historic start I’d say top 5 pretty easily
he is not however a top 8 or top 10 player in the league just off the strength that we’re in November. I think those kinds of declarations should come after a least a full season of work.

You’re not interpreting it correctly.
Yes he cannot be judge based on a whole season 1 month in.
However he has been a top 5 player this season THUS FAR

Retiring instead of stealing a few more million dollars? Hustling backwards.

No one saying he’s going to maintain this level of performance but IF HE MANAGES to maintain it
he’s having one of the greatest seasons OF ALL TIME in terms of PER

how am I not interpreting it correctly? I just said he’s playing like a top 5 guy. How is that any different from what you just said
Basically what I’m getting at is playing like a top 5 guy 15 games into your sophomore season is not the same as saying a guy is top 10 in the NBA

I think the Luka being a top 10 player thing is pretty safe to say at this point. I don't care if it's only been 16 games, there just aren't 10 better players.

I can understand being trepidatious on claiming Luka as a top 10 player on the planet in only his second year of profess-oh waaaaait but it's not. It's almost like he was also insanely good as a professional in Europe and this is just par for the course now

Every year it's the same thing , different player.
Then the same guys pick & choose when a sample size is good enough depending on a player, when raw stats are valuable or not based on the player... #Theagenda tho.

Knicks just had to come back, I had the Nets at -2.5 on the spread

Mav's have the top offense with Luka pulling all the strings. Of course it helps that he has great coaching and spacing

It’s probably true but is it not fair to wait until we get a playoff series under his belt before we staple him as a top 10 player?

Laker fans were talking about Ingram's post All star break stretch of games as if it was for a whole season and they werent even winning back thenEvery year it's the same thing
