The recitals of luka doncic are the daily bread in a nba in which the leader of dallas mavericks point to MVP. It was predicted before the course began and it is on its way. One of the results of his individual performances is the wealth of praise he accumulates when he signs them.day after day and despite the collective difficulties the team is going through.
In the last confrontation with the Warriors, a rival that kept them from the 2022 Finals in the Western Conference, Kidd joked that he is often asked about a triple-double by his player. “It’s getting boring for me. Let’s see if we see something different, let him do it with his left hand. It’s a joke. But he is a very special boy”.
In addition to having Draymond Green as a declared admirer of his game, the victory over Golden State on November 29 served to hear a detailed explanation of Curry on Doncic and how it causes so much damage to the opponents:
“His size and ability with the ball leaves you on the edge for the entire game. This, together with the fact that he is a scorer on three levels, means that you have to be worried about everything. He can hit the 3-pointer after step back, so you have to put pressure on him, but he’s crafty and he knows how to use his dribbling to get past you.”
“He is playing at an extremely high level and he is improving with each passing year”
“Also, obviously, the vision he has of the pitch is almost unreal. It’s an offensive package where he’s the director and the scorer, and it gets tough when he hits shots like this game: you want to keep taking things out of his power, but he can do it well play after play. He even works on the other side ”
