Booker is the most one dimensional star in the league
Guy can’t dribble or shoot unless it’s set up. He’s basically Klay Thompson as a first option but worse at shooting

Are you basing this off of watching him play 1 game in which he just recently came back from the longest injury of his career and clearly isn't quite back to 100% yet?

Booker is a loser and one shot cheap trick. Most of Arizona wants to be LA and they got fat people to prove it.

You must not watch Phoenix too often. He can take you off the dribble, shoot set shots and take you to the basket. He's better then Klay Thompson.

Booker can shoot off the dribble routinely and has done so for years. His 3 point shooting is just ok. Not very similar to Klay other than size and skin color lol.

Agreed, at least LaTrine plays a bit of defense and can dunk nice.

OP showing that he doesn't watch basketball games as Booker plays nothing like Klay

Re: Booker is the most one dimensional star in the league
Booker is one of the short list of guys who have a bit of a midrange bag these days.

Re: Booker is the most one dimensional star in the league
Both of these games are from this season before he got injured. And he had the Suns tied for #1 seed in west despite multiple other starters injured. 51 points in 3 quarters played vs Bulls(20/25 fg)... decent chance he could have dropped 70+ pts on insane efficiency if they played him in the 4th quarter. 58 points(21/35) and the 20+ point comeback W vs Pelicans with Zion.
CP3 was out in both of these games if I recall too. Idk I'm just watching these highlights and struggling to find all these spot up shooting plays you're talking about.

Lavine is easily better SG than booker. Better 3pt shooter, faster down the court and better at the rim.

Booker broke Lebron. Lavine can’t get out of round 1

Before Booker got injured this year he had his team tied for #1 seed, despite multiple other starters being out with injuries like CP3, Cam Johnson(and Jae Crowder not playing the whole season due to being butthurt he lost his starting job to Cam J).
Lavine has been healthy pretty much all season and the Bulls are struggling to make the play-in. Despite having Derozan on his team who is a better player than any teammate Booker has had in his career(until KD takes the court for the Suns). The highest PPG scorer D Book has ever had on his team before this was literally Eric f*cking Bledsoe.
Just look at their on/off stats and the difference in impact is ridiculous. Lavine's impact isn't even remotely close to Bookers impact.
It's no surprise that D Book smoked Lavine for 51 points in just 3 quarters this season before resting the entire 4th because it was a blowout.
