This is a really negative post. I'm excited to watch all 4 of these guys for the next decade. The league is in good hands. Jamal Murray > Mitchell tho imo (but I'm ****in nuts)

The irony in this racist thread is that you used a white guy as your celebratory gif dance. (thought we lacked rhythm?)

Either way... last I checked Lebron James, Anthony Davis, Kevin Durant, James Harden, Kyrie Irving, Kawhi Leonard, Paul George, Steph Curry, Klay Thompson, Draymond Green and other players from contenders are all still at least part African American.

There's no need to get your jimmies in a rustle over Luka and Jokic.

he got way too much flava to be just plain ole white rice....its some seasoning in there....look your white genes are kicking in right now wanting to quote me and say "its spelled flavor!" :oldlol:

Connor has flavor but has proven to be a joke relative to his pedigree. Since he became champ... Nate Diaz beat him, khabib totally floored him, and that random guy dustin poirier put him in the hospital after breaking his leg in half.

:oldlol:

Don't get me wrong Mcgregor had extreme style, flash, and trash talk... but he couldn't back it up. He was a wild haymaker thrower that couldn't compete with true MMA tacticians aka wrestlers and BJJ grapplers. An analogy that is apt for why many NBA stars aren't as skilled as Luka or Jokic.

If you gave them a single superstar teammate it would be over.

Some people play for triple doubles and empty stats...and some play for wins and rings


Some people get to the finals... and some ppl get their ass kicked in the 1st round by kawhi....yearly



i guess its all preference?


edit btw Jokic's iq is much much higher than luka dont group him with luka. Its like comparing westbrook to lebron when it comes to iq....They are miles apart

Nobody in the OP has a ring yet, so who are you referring to?

Edit: Only one of those 4 has gone to the finals, Booker, and he was a playoff virgin until CP3 showed up. Let's not pretend like he's a 'winner' all of a sudden.

You seem like you have an issue with Luka, but Joker is the only one in the OP you could argue as being better. Lumping Mitchell and Booker in there with Luka is hilarious, you'd be laughed out of the room for suggesting either is better. At least Luka lost to the Clippers WITH Kawhi. Last I checked, Donovan lost to the Clippers with Kawhi injured at the end....but I digress.

Is this the first time in history 2 of the 3 best players in the world are white?

Dude acting like Luka didn't take Kawhi and the Clips to the brink, while Donovan got gift-wrapped Kawhi's injury and still loses. Booker ain't sniffed the playoffs till this year. But yeah, those two are 'winners' now apparently .:rolleyes:

I can't imagine anyone playing much better than he did in g7. He shot well, too.
