MAVS NEWS: Luka: "I feel good"| Nico Gets Extension

[RGP1981]

Lively lost a little buzz with his injury and what he was dealing off the court.  He also started coming off the bench.  Although we have seen how important he has been these playoffs.  Besides Wemby, I may not take him over anyone else in this rookie class for this team.    Chet would be really difficult discussion though.

I'm sorry but just no... Chet is in a different league as a player because of his skills with the ball, BBIQ, ability to create, shoot and pass. Whereas Lively sometimes even misses put-backs and can't get the ball back to Luka/Kyrie from hand-offs.

Let's just say that Chet is a lot closer to Wemby than Lively is to Chet. If you got to swap Lively for Chet, you do it instantly, and happily pay for the pleasure too. No need for discussion.

Making it seem like Lively is equal to Chet is just wrong, and perhaps why some think that SGA deserves MVP more than Luka... i.e., because of not giving proper weightage to the calibre of SGA's team-mates like Chet, Jalen, Dort, Cason.
