Interesting read on Luka Doncic.
I think it's an interesting read as well. I read the original article that this one is based on, and I watched the podcast this article refers to.
Regarding this particular article, my thoughts are that it uses way too many generalities and assumptions to come to possible conclusions. He says things like "he played with KP and JB," using that as proof that he's played with great players, as if KP was any good here, while ignoring that with JB (not the JB we see today, of course) he made a conference finals. And he completely ignores Luka's age and the natural, years long arch of an NBA superstar. No one wins immediately.
He also doesn't talk enough about how drawing conclusions off of just one stat can be problematic.
Anyway, I don't have time to give more examples of either the bit of the article that I think is interesting or the majority of the article that is mostly generalities and assumptions. The podcast he mentioned is probably the most interesting of the three offerings.
Not very astute ^^^^
