Sooner or later people are going to realize that Booker isn’t just a sneaky good passer for a scorer, he’s one of the best playmakers in the league.

      Sure doesn’t mean he’s a top 5 passer or remotely close to that tho. Hes avg more apg than Luka and lebron but not nearly the playmaker that they are.

        After reading your comments I’m just curious, how many times have you gone to check the box score only to find out booker destroyed your favorite team? We all know you didn’t watch the games. All hate, no tape.

        Booker is quite literally one of the best playmaker in the game right now. CBS recently put out a whole article specifically about just that and why he’s a more advanced playmaker than a drive and dish type player that racks up assists. Do some reading, watch some film, learn some ball.

        here ya go

          I’ve watched every play off game he’s played. Including all of his elimination games. Yeah he was really destroying teams then.

            If you watched all his playoff games then you would know he was mirroring prime Jordan last postseason on both sides of the ball through 11 games, got hurt halfway through game 5 against Denver on an absolutely reckless play Brown, and tried to play through it in an elimination game that saw his running mate KD start 0-10 with multiple turnovers.

            The reports about the game 7 against Dallas, where half the team was so sick to the point everyone was wondering if they were playing with covid, are verified.

            And against Milwaukee, Jrue holiday is a beast. Made respect for his defensive ability. But also book was playing on an injured hammy and cp was useless to the point he couldn’t dribble.

            How about the other elimination games, when he sent teams home? 47 points in staples giving lebron his first 1st round exit? Career 28ppg in the postseason?

            Again, just tired narrative repeating. You’re a box score watcher. A casual. It’s cool, just don’t pretend like you know ball is all

      He’s also leading the whole NBA in Net Rating amongst players who have started 7+ games. And 2nd in AST% by that same metric behind only Tyrese Haliburton.

      The impact is noticeable every time he’s on the court vs off. He’s orchestrating this offense and being a true leader. Anyone who said he’s incapable of playing a traditional PG role is looking very stupid rn.
