The imperative

Your Luca Don Church just got paid a very high compliment.

Yes, the logo told the Dallas Morning News this weekend about Luca.

I've been around a long time, and I've seen a lot of special players.

How many superstars air there in the league at any given time, Maybe five or six?

There's a difference between all Stars and superstars.

A superstar is different, and that's what he is.

He'll be the best player Dallas has ever had.

I have great respect for Nowitzki, but Dirk is not in.

Yeah, this'll maybe straighten up because, you know, Jerry West has found and identified a lot of great players in his history.

I want to know what Jerry West thought of Luca on draft night two years ago.

He was He had just been hired by the Clippers.

He wasn't listen to draft him or anything.

But anybody can look at Luca now and say he's great.

Yeah, it was a polarizing top of two years ago, I would have loved to know what his notes were.

Luca if he even had notes on Luca, because the people that believes in look at that time when there were teams were like Now I don't believe in this guy and the Mavericks being obviously top of the chart they traded up to get him.

That, to me is really really impressed that they believed in them to do that well, here.

Here's interesting about Jerry with that quote.

Jerry West is the man who watched Kobe Bryant's draft workout and said, Shut it down.

They ended up having to trade Charlotte to get him and all that, but he identify Kobe Bryant as a high school kid.

Luke Luke Adachi was basically a high school kid coming out of Europe and for Jerry to have this kind of compliment and that kind of praise for a player at this stage.

You know, even more recently with Clay Thompson, Clay was not yet an All Star, and he basically threatened to resign if they would have traded in for Kevin Love, you know, and say like he's known to started Steak, a gravelly believes.

Yeah, like that's Ah, that's a pretty big bar for Luca Toledo.

I think here's the big question with Luca, and this is not to say that he won't be great in these situations, but Dirk Nowitzki is a champion Dr playoff proven and tested one of championship, basically Arizona's.

They had support players on the team, but he was the only real star at.

That's what we know about Luca is entirely based on the regular season right now and what he did in Europe, But we don't know what's gonna happen when they have real expectations when there's real pressure on them when they when they have to deliver in the clutch, I would bet on him.

I think we pretty great, but this is what's going to be fun about watching him over the next 5 10 years of his career.

This is what you find out, that somebody is a true champion and one of the all time greats.

If you wanna see or hear more about Luca, that's the perfect time.
