If this happens... I hope he turns out to be a star NBA player.

Quote

 From Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN.

Slovenian teen star Luka Doncic has elevated to the forefront of the Atlanta Hawks’ internal discussions on the third overall pick in Thursday’s NBA draft, league sources told ESPN….

Doncic started to separate himself in organizational discussions around the choice, an examination that has included a tremendous intrigue with Jaren Jackson Jr., league sources said.

Luka just qualified for Basketball Reference’s HOF probability tracker.  He’s at 36.8%. Trae is at 9.4.

The Mavs have an all time winning percentage of .567 when Luka starts, .424 when he’s out.  The Hawks are .451 and .450 with Trae, respectively.

I know it is easy to forget but the Hawks tanked for two years with Trae starting 141 games in those tanking seasons while Dallas has never had a tanking season with Luka.  So you are comparing apples to oranges.

I'm very confident both players will be HOFer when their career is over.

Luka is the better player career to date.

Without the tanking seasons, the Hawks have won 51.5% of game with Trae and 48.1% without him (with most of the good 'without' being this season when we had a near All-Star level replacement for him).

Yawn 🥱..again. 

I'm giving my guy hillbilly some major side eye for posting HOF odds as if that's meaningful.  He knows the basketball HOF is farcical and he also knows both players are likely to make it in.

So I object to his including that comparison as it's just meant to be prejudicial.  Whew, years of binge-watching Law & Order have finally paid off!

When I spend the night at AH's, I watch Saved by the Bell reruns.  Don't tell him though.  He doesn't know I let myself in when he's sleeping.

You know I respect your takes about our best players, going back to Joe Johnson. But the best part of this is finding a poster who hasn’t been here in years and seeing the 5 years later…..

I hope there is some humor in this lol.

I was wondering why that dramatic episode with Jessie was shown as being watched 10 times when I logged into my SbtB account.

I'M SO EXCITED, I'M SO EXCITED I'M SO SCARED - jessiespano - quickmeme

If you've got a problem with caffeine pills, we can get you help @kg01.  You've got friends who care about you at the Squawk.

I'm not sure which 80's TV moment was more impactful to my leading a drug free life.  This SBTB episode or the "I learned it from watching you!" commercial.

I lied.  It was the 'this is your brain on drugs' spot.
