Luka Doncic Is This Era's Larry Bird

Doug Gottlieb: "I truly, truly, truly believe that Luka Doncic is this era's Larry Bird. Bird was wildly respected by his peers, although there was some denial by fans. Bird had no problem talking trash, had no problem with physicality, and got away with the fact that he wasn't crazy athletic by great footwork, great touch, and unbelievable basketball IQ. I don't think Luka is actually as good as Bird, but I do think Luka is currently the best player in the NBA. So we have the New Bird vs. the Celtics."
