The hunt for the Chamberlain continues for Luka Doncic since the Slovenian signs an 8th game in a row tonight with 30 points and more to start the season. Wilt Chamberlain is untouchable with his 23 games in a row, but Doncic is not weakening with his 35 points scored against the Raptors. As usual, the Dallas star blackened the rest of the sheet with 8 rebounds and 6 assists, and the first thing that stands out is his overall address: 10 of 15 on shots, 3 of 6 to 3 -points, 12 of 14 on free throws. It’s very, very, very clean!
But what we also remember are two new tricks. The first, in the first half, is a “spin move” by dribbling between two defenders, to offer a blind pass in the corner to Tim Hardaway Jr. We must review the slow motion to understand where the Slovenian went.
“I even wonder if he doesn’t surprise himself”
Then there is this completely crazy basket in the 3rd quarter when he connects many dribbles between the legs against a wall of Raptors, to finally let go of a fadeaway “ave maria” which is filing. The kind of basket that disgusts an opponent.
“He did everything tonight! » ignites Jason Kidd. “He dribbled eight times between those legs, right? When he took this little floater, I laughed because he is the only one who can do that. There’s also this spin move he’s doing right in front of me. He surprises a lot of people, and I wonder if he even surprises himself. »
The answer with the interested party: “Yes, sometimes… But there are so many actions… On my shot, the ball escapes me a little, and I don’t know how I managed to put it. These actions are funny. Later, we will see them again on television. Everyone will talk about it. »
Indeed, we have seen them since this morning. Endlessly.
