Domantas Sabonis thread

[Straight forward]

This is so true about Domas. He's doing literally crazy things and no-one cares, LOL. He's putting Wilt numbers, one of the clutchiest players in the game, top rebounder, top shooter with limited attempts, top screener, no-one cares, LOL.

He has to win in order to be recognized.

Did Embiid ever win anything? Or Harden?

I meant he needs to win games. Embiid is a monster on both ends but he is a lazy bitch. Harden is no comparison.

Harden have won more than 10 playoofs series,played in nba finals,played in multiple conference finals. He is totally diffrent league by playoofs achievements.

Embiid always looses in 2nd round and never healthy to finish playoofs. But he have like 5 times more playoofs series wins.


Sabonis have 0 playoof series wins at 28 old age and half of the seasons this teams dont even make the playoofs.


Sabonis is comparable to D.Cousins or Nikola Vucevic types dudes 20pts 2-3 time all stars that also made few playoofs,always lost in first round and half of the seasons dont even make the playoofs.


Nobody asks Sabonis to win nba ring but not have won a single series in his career yet its hard to look at him as winning player

[Straight forward]

Demarcus Cousins is a good comparison (even though Domas already broke all Kings records previously hold by Cousins if I'm not mistaken) cause dude was 4x All Star and 2x All NBA. Domas is 3x All star and 2x All NBA. But NBA really robbed Sabonis last season. He was flat out all star He became All NBA at the end of the season, so it doesn't make any sense. He actually was like 5th, 6th in NBA MVP race. What Sabonis also has is 2x NBA leading rebounder. After this season it will be third title. And off course he'll be All NBA again and will surpass Cousins. Vucevic never was All NBA, Sabonis is simply better.

It' interesting cause Sabonis now stands with Ben Wallace, Olajuwon, Mutombo, Deandre Jordan, Elvin Hayes as 2 times NBA reboounding champs (8-13 spots of all time), but after this season he will pass those and with 3 titles will look ahead to reach Bill Russel, Garnet and Drummond tier (4x). Rondman stands second of all time with 7x and all time leader is Wilt (11x).

I would say Sabonis has some chances to reach 5x rebounding titles and that would equal him with Dwight Howard who stands at 4th position all time (third Moses Malone 6x).

Anyway, Sabonis won last 2 seasons in rebounding and he's about to do it third one in a row. That's dominant shit, man.

Domas is literally putting Wilt numbers. One else does, not even Jokic (that doesn't mean Jokic is worse, but still interesting moment). That alone is something. And even if it's true that he badly lacks winning, he is still underappreciated to certain extent
