2nd half of the year my ass, it was like 25-30 (If I am wrong, correct me) and luka played most of the 82 games great. They just bring trae up, because it was never close.

Mark my words, expect the Thunder to hard foul and borderline dirty plays if they are losing game 3. They’ve been doing this every year since KD left and he’s headlined but Russ. They get angry when they are going to get eliminated and it starts to not be basketball plays anymore.

Trae balls after 2/3 of the season when he knows he ain’t making no damm playoffs . Luka balls literally all year long , and yes some minor injuries cost him some games but he started head on knowing what he wanted to do , he didn’t make the playoffs but he is the real ROTY. Plus he was considered an Allstar.

How is there debate about ROY? It does not make sense, unless you’re overrating the value of an (NBA) assist. Trae averaged about 2 assists more than Luka. Luka scored more, rebounded more, had more steals, had more blocks, and won more. Honestly, he was even more fun to watch. They shot almost identically from the field, while Trae was more accurate from the free throw line. No Co-ROY. LUKA definitely is the ROY. And don’t forget, Luka is doing all this while even being younger than Trae. It might hurt the American pride but Luka is the ROY and will likely end up an all time great.

Getting tired of these players saying Trae Young is ROTY because he played better the second half and Luka fell off. Show me where Luka fell off the second half

Rachel Nichols is cute but she be capping sometimes. You don’t have to play nice since Perk is on the set. If Perk would’ve played they still would’ve lost. Rasheed Wallace was lights out in that Game 7 and that still wasn’t enough for the Celtics.
