At that stage ( i know only 3 games), he is better than Don for me. More complete and more efficient at money time. Let's see...
He is so skilled offensively. It is crazy that he somehow regressed with Chicago but I guess not really a surprise with how terrible they are at developing players. If he had been drafted by the mavs with Dirk around to mentor him I bet he would have been viewed as a top 20 player by now.
FIFY.
What makes Lauri so good? Simple answer is that he is playing in a team, not in a group of selfish players. Just like Finnish National Team when they had incredible results in European championships although Finland is not such basket-ball country.
Lauri can score surely but needs and now gets support from his teammates. He is a real team player and not staring his own stats..

I wish he was more unselfish, and maybe he will be. The King of the North is for real

Not sure if it would’ve worked under Snyder, but he’s exactly what the Jazz needed playing between Mitchell and Gobert. Better late than never. . .

He's got the mechanics to become a KD-lite. 7 foot scorers that can put the ball on the floor are to die for in this league. I think with Fizdale and Hornacek in our developmental department we can develop him into a 30 ppg superstar in due time.

Honestly, I thought Ainge acquired him in order to trade him to further maximize the haul for Mitchell. Now I hope the Jazz keep him.
No one thought he would be this good.

I ALWAYS forget Fizdale is on our side now.. hahaha..
