There's been a nasty little rumor floating around that he's really Larry Bird.😂😂
I can't stand that Mark Cuban guy. He reminds me of a little troll.
Luka may be great, but he'll never be Larry Legend!
😁 Cuban
Interesting, Luka signs all of his cards lulu.
lulu sounds like the name of a truck stop diner waitress. I'll have a refill on that coffee toots!
I'm just in from Ebay, and Luka cards are selling like hotcakes! Most of his rookie cards have over 100 watchers, and it's Luka mania! It's insane, help!!!!
😂😂😂
Larry Legend is Larry Legend. Lulu is not 🍻
😂😂 Larry is a legend, lulu is a waitress that plays for the Mavericks!
Lulu.... He is just heavily in to the godawful Metallica/Lou Reed album collaboration.

Hey @doubledragon why didn't you just bump my thread?

Edit to add:
Luka Legend? Yes, he is the real deal. Larry Legend is my favorite. Luka's flaw that I see is he shoots too many 3 pointers to be that poor of a 3 point shooter. Or, I should say, his 3 point % is too low for a guy who takes that many. But his step back 3 is si good, and his improvement trajectory, that this will work out eventually.
there is an osprey where I go kayaking , he sometimes sits menacingly in a dead tree above me at my lunch spot.
His name is also Larry
Yeah,I guess that kid Luka can play alright.
Someone should go ask Montrezl Harrell for his opinion on Luka especially after today's game that just ended.

In a recent interview, Larry Bird was asked how he would do in today’s NBA with all the changes that have taken place since he stopped playing in ‘93. He carefully considered a moment and said, “I’d probably be good for about 15 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists.” The reporter, surprised by the comments from the normally confident and brash legend, replied “Wow, Larry, you really think that much of today’s players and their level of play?” To which Bird responded, “Absolutely. Plus, I’m 63 years old, now.”

To answer the OP question, no. Or maybe better stated, not yet and unlikely.
Kareem Abdul Jabbar, Larry Bird and David Robinson were drafted players who changed the fortunes of the franchises that drafted them immediately and drastically; league doormat to perennial title contender for a decade (or more) after their rookie season arrival.
Luka Doncic is incredibly skilled and super talented. But Larry Bird, he is not.

Let’s wait a few years before we crown all this newest sports heroes ( Luke, Lamar Jackson etc) Legends. I can remember a few crowned legends, RGIII, Vince Young, Vince Carter-the next Michael Jordan, Jeremy Lin, Steven Strasberg. Something happened on the way to the legend mansion.

i agree. a little early for Lulu, but he is only 21 and has many years to continue to improve.
