Youre the biased fan here because you cant even acknowledge that there is a discussion who is better here. I on the other hand like both of them and understand that they are very different players and each one of them have their own areas where they stride and where they fail. By no way Im biased towards any of them.
    at this point it's not even worth discussing this topic anymore, since you guys already made your minds up regarding this matter.
    And I understand the reason why - being a son of our living basketball legend, Sabonis Jr gets a pass for his shortcomings and gets praised whenever he has a good game - that's just the way it goes with our media. And media is a very powerful tool these days to influence the young minds of all teenage boys, salivating over their heroes 24/7

      At this point its not even worth discussing this WITH YOU. Since you came to this forum part hurt like a little baby winning about how we are all wrong about Sabonis and how JV is the best, saying things like "stating facts" and not providing any facts later, I suggest that you show yourself out.

        • OK, Sabonis is ripped. Can't blame him being a lazy ass, must be eating properly as well, no JV's belly over there Expecting to see even more of Gonzaga's bully Sabonis at the NBA level next season.

          You can see the difference how Valanciunas was suggested to handle his body in the off season when he was as old as current Sabonis...

            Jv seems to have small tits,really?

            or are muscles?

            • In media day Domas said that he reduce body fat and added muscle, so he became quicker, faster and likely not losing any strength while his weight remain the same as last season. All this to being able to guard 4s in NBA. Really curious how he'll deal with that. More ripped, faster Sabonis should be even more fun to watch and it's good for NT when we will have to play him at 4 as well.

              • Didn't see the game, but from the highs Domas seems to be more sturdy, more mobile, more aggressive. Seems to be willing to put the ball on the floor even more, to finish more with his right hand in the post. Obviously he's very active. Watch at 0:25 how he operates from the perimeter - he even made a "shammgod move" which was pretty cool for big fellow Really exited about new season because he's ready for some big time action.

                • Come on Mcmillan! Time to realise Domas is your team's second best baller. Look at this poster, look in what kind of a shape he is now. Just give him the ball. Be it Pacers or other team, Domas is panning out to be one of the key players for a playoffs team. Pacers should feed him.

                  • Here's the thing. Sabonis' campaign at Indiana is getting bitter sweet...Ok, last season he was underused and didn't play enough, but hey he made a leap and so on so we can justify it. Time past, Sabonis got better, stronger and he still playing his crappy 20 minutes of the bench again...His stats and overall effectiveness is better than Miles Turner second year in a row, but Indiana doesn't seem to be making any moves here. More over, McMillan is a crappy offensive coach. All he does he's running p'n'r or ISO. That's not good enough. Indiana last season ended up as one of the worst passing teams even if their GM talked about sharing the ball...This season they again below the middle passing wise. It's a team which goes ISO and all the bullshit even if they losing and Sabonis getting scrubby 6 touches even of he scores well...I hate NBA for this. They going with primitive game plan and don't give a fuck. The thing is that Sabonis is being treated like stupid Euro asshole without any regard. He is a NO.1 in the team in his position and yet is still being treated like a scrub. If situation won't change and Sabonis agent won't find ways to revolt that kind of treatment, that will be weak.

                    • Sabonis matches career high thirty points , 9rebounds, three assists, 2 blocks and 12/12 from the field in 21minute. He's balling IMO, already one of the best post and p'n'r players in NBA.

                      Here's highlights:

                      • Domantas fouls more than other main rotation players, which probably explains why he's not playing more. He also could cut down on turnovers. On bright side he's in top-20 of almost every advanced stat https://www.basketball-reference.com...9_leaders.html

                        • I can only congratulate young Sabonis for his impressive start to the season - he's even eclipsed JV's offensive production thus far and is sitting very comfortably at Nr 4 in player efficiency rating at almost 30, which is even better than what superstars like Lebron and Kawhi showing so farAnd even though JV is not shabby either being in the TOP 10 of PER as well,he is having a bit shaky start to the season with many missed bunnies at the rim which he usually makes with his eyes closed...with that being said, it's advantage to Sabonis Jr so far in the young season (to much delight of SF of course)

                            Yup. He's the only player who comes of the bench and averages a double- double in NBA. Enough said. And nope fouls is not the main reason, the reason is that McCmilan refuses to admit an obvious true that Sabonis is their best big man in the team and should play around thirty minutes each night which would basically make him a 15-17pts, 11-12reb, three assists kind of a big with a high shooting %. The problem is that Indiana's staff is determined that Turner eventually should be better than Sabonis and refuses to consider that they simply made a mistake.

                            Yeah, it's nice to see both of our NBA players among top 10 efficient players in the NBA so far. I remember when D-Mo was at his best in Rockets, JV and D-Mo were at the top of best post scoring % in the NBA. Imagine if D-Mo hadn't been collapsesed, we would have the flat out best frontline in Europe right now. Even without D-Mo, with JV and Domas we have one of the best.

                            As for JV, it's a paradox. His minutes decreased, but his touches increased. He's making career high 9,8 attempts per game in 18 minutes and so far averaging career best numbers. If that continues to be the story of JV's season, new coach is a genius and he should allow JV to come of the bench continually.

                            PS: Sabonis start had to be even more impressive. A little injury slowed him down for a week and his stats deceased. IMO, Sabonis will really make some noise this season. He's ready, he's a beast. Only coach and his teammates can slow him down now.

                                Yeah, I generalised his double-double, he's still best in NBA with that combination coming of the bench. He should be able to play thirty minutes, he's 6.4 PF per thirty six minutes. And I believe this number will decrease.
