Has Shai passed Luka? If so, when? (impact as a player + all-time)

[QUOTE=Xiao Yao You;15042998]They got him 2 rim runners in dallas to get him to a finals. Not sure how that was a bad fit? He needs rim runners. Shai will fit anywhere[/QUOTE]

I'm talking about Porzingis, Brunson, and Kyrie and the adjustments on and off the court you have to make to work with those guys.

I think you could take really any of the ten best guards in the league and put them on OKC and the team would still be dominant

The idea that playing with those guys makes the game harder is silly. Kyrie Irving definitely took some pressure off of him and both Irving and Brunson were great secondary ballhandlers as well as guys that can't be doubled off of. As for Porzingis, Dallas didn't do much with the pairing of Doncic and KP but he can hit threes, post up and catch high lobs. As an offensive fit he works well with anyone. You wish he could stay healthy and the rebounding should be better but overall he's a fantastic complimentary center. No one would complain about players of this caliber.

Gafford and lively fit better with luka which says it all about the guy. He needs rim runners to max his skills

He's averaging 34 PPG to start the season without those guys, I'm sure he's fine.

I didn't pay much attention to Dallas when they had Porzingis and Doncic but having watched Porzingis in Boston I don't see how Doncic could not have been able to use him when Tatum Brown and White were tossing him assists all game long.
