Cade Cunningham is not better than him, sorry not sorry

Proof-Umpire-7718 | Lakers

This narrative is so stupid.

Cade hasn’t even won a playoff series yet and Luka’s just been better this regular season.

He’s a better scorer and a vastly better playmaker. His offensive edge is so large that it outweighs the gap between their defensive impact.

The whole Cade MVP talk is crazy to me it’s like we suddenly stepped back into the 2000s where team record and narrative meant more than being the actual best player in the league

There’s zero argument whatsoever that Cade is a better individual player than any of SGA Jokic or Luka yet a bunch of people are claiming he should be MVP because Detroit are the #1 seed and “he led them up from the bottom” or something like that

Of course Cade is great but he’s not the best in the world what the fuck are we talking about

Cade vs Jaylen Brown should be the debate for the best guard in the East this season imo.

Cade is nice but Cade vs Brunson is still in the air.

Exactly I’ve never seen people so quick to crown two guys who haven’t even won a single playoff series yet (Cade and Wemby) as the new faces of the league lol

Everyone else has had to prove so much to get anywhere near that label I’ve even seen lots of people call Giannis an underachiever for winning “only 1 ring”

The thing to me too about Cade is his shooting splits are still really inefficient

Low_Platform1057 | Lakers

1 | 13 hours ago

Don’t pay attention lol, you will waste your time.

Luka is whining too much, he is flopping and he is playing for LA, after one of the most dumbest trade in the NBA history and the LA roster is way too flawed to contend. So, he will be hated from anywhere because he has beef with many fanbase.

Brunson always elevates his game to another level when there is a desperate need.

Apollo611 | Lakers

Apparently efficient doesn’t matter anymore. Luka was bad in December, he shot 57% TS and people were saying he was barely top 10. Cade is at 57% TS for the season and they’re calling him the MVP lmao

zebrainatux | Nuggets

I think a lot of it is the people saying it (and I think Cade is top 5 for the award) only watch the big games and kind of ignore that he’s had some real stinkers this year

Cade isn’t even great. He’s a good player, but being massively overrated because of the Pistons turnaround. Put Cade with the same stats on a middle of the pack eastern team and he would struggle to get an All-Star spot.

Pretty obvious that Cade is simply not held to the same standard as Luka since the convo only get brought up when Cade has good games, and disappear when he has average or bad games.

Lmao1903 | NBA

You got it yeah. Cade will have a ³⁄₁₈ game with 10 points or something terrible, with 5 TOVs, and it will be complete silence, maybe will be “Cade has been bad, hopefully he will be better”. Next game he gets 40+ on 30+ shots, bringing the average to 25+, everyone goes crazy, and they are like ppg means nothing, its only like 8 points between the 2. But the entire reason that the ppg matters is because it accounts terrible games like that as well.

Ok I’ll say this, I think Luka is very clearly just a better player, for me its not even a debate, but I think I can see teams not do trades like that. Sometimes you gotta hold onto a worse player if the gap is not that crazy.

Rock3tDoge | Pistons

I would absolutely not give up Cade for Luka. Cade is a fantastic defender and leader. Luka is more talented on offense but his weaknesses outweigh that to me

Downvote and laugh all you want. Cade is a superstar and we are the 1 seed in the league. He is in incredible shape, plays hard on both ends and doesn’t bitch to refs. Luka is the most talented player in the league but there is a reason he was traded. The extra 5-10 points he score, he gives up on the defensive end.

Cades in year 5. Through Luka’s fist 5 seasons he won 2 playoff series (with Jalen Brunson btw). We’ll see what happens this year but Cade is passing every test along the way this year on what’s still a pretty poorly constructed roster

Low_Platform1057 | Lakers

Interesting, 10W and 13L.

Lost during his first playoffs as an underdog with KP, the 2cnd option going out with some bonkers stats.

Lost again in a 7 games series as an underdog with THJ as the 2cnd option, he was actually extremely great.

Won a series without HCA and injuries left and right and some okayish stats.

musy101 | Clippers

HCA never really mattered in those series. The 2021 series every away team won lol. Also the series they won, Kawhi got injured/wasn’t at full health even the 2 games he played.

I loved watching the Clips/Dallas series. Luka carried hard, and he had to. But I do think Ty lue ALWAYS coached a bad series. Like awful. Kawhi saved his ass so many times against Dallas.
