They were probably thinking he is a Tyreke Evans type but probably wanted his market to go down so they could come in. Almost all comments have ulterior motives attached to them

They aren't perfect by any means but i think they'll get in.

Lets look at the teams

LA
Nuggets
Rockets
Clippers

Above are all pretty much guaranteed getting in the playoffs.

Then you've got the other 4

Jazz
Mavs
Spurs
Trailblazers

That's my picks and i'm sticking to it.

They said it was because he's been pro for so long that he's actually already peaked and therefore his rookie season wasn't really that impressive. They said they don't see him getting much better. He's hit his ceiling

LUKA bringing out the FOMO and POMO!

I presume they were only looking at his counting stats and not efficiency.

He shot 42% from the field last yr and only 71% from the line. With his size and ability to finish at the rim/get fouled, that was always going to improve, though granted I didnt think the improvement would happen this fast. He's shooting FG%47 and FT%84 thus far this season.

He still can improve his 3pt%, so there's still room to grow, he'll also reduce his turnovers when he has more help around him and doesnt have to do it all himself.

Tyreke Evans....

jbettis32 · 11-10-2019, 08:10 AM

Actually Luka is not using his athletic to score or play, he plays with his basketball IQ that will only improve. He doesn't have the first step, lightning speed, or killer crossover, but is using his IQ and skill to score and pass that is hardly to be guarded especially for the rules favor to offense player nowadys.

He is a can't miss for real. A upgrade version of Jokic with better shooting, mobility, and vision.

Jerrylo913 · 11-10-2019, 09:13 AM

Will it be possible to see his prizm and optic base psa 10's jump to 2-3xx this season? Wishful thinking maybe....

mglevy125 · 11-10-2019, 09:19 AM

Curious when his select and chronicles will start to jump

I don't know what Prizm PSA 10s were at, but Optic has already gone from $25 to $100 in the last two weeks.

Yea, its gonna happen.
We're at the point where any shiny Luka base card needs to go off to PSA

VampireSports · 11-10-2019, 10:59 AM

Can't wait to get my Immac Premuim Edition RPA shipped out from Panini. Soon as I get that, if it looks good, going straight to PSA for walk through. Anyone hear anything on redemptions please let me know

RichardGasner · 11-10-2019, 11:56 AM

Hello Luka thread

I don’t always dabble in basketball, but a specific card caught my interest, but I’m far away on pricing with the owner.

What would be a fair buying price in today’s market for a LUKA Silver Prizm BGS 10.

Pop report shows 8 Pristines with no black labels

Thanks all

That's a big one, given the pop report. Putting myself in the seller's shoes, I wouldn't feel comfortable with anything less than $6k, just my opinion though.

KhalDrogo · 11-10-2019, 12:00 PM

$1500-$1750

Personally, I would rather have a perfectly centered PSA 10 and save some money.

Prospectorsadvantage · 11-10-2019, 12:06 PM

Mint 9 cards are still good value IMO. Sometimes go under Raw, and with some of the condition sensitive cards would rather have a mint copy.

I wouldn't be surprised if it went for 3k+ honestly some people go crazy for BGS 10s
