Windy on the Joker:
Per 100 possessions, 151 for with him on the court, and giving up 104, 47 point rating!
Nuggets are second in the league for defense.
He leads in rebounds and assists.
Just a fucking magician.
And the best thing is he looks like a normal guy. He doesn't dominate with other worldly physical gifts

Well... he's a bit taller than average, and a bit quicker and more coordinated than most people his height...

Okay. But he doesn't have mad hops I guess was what I meant. He may look like a normal guy but he doesn't play like one

Yeah, he's fucking unreal.A big man with a shooter's touch, and who can out pass the little guys.

Man, these NBA cup floors are not easy on the eye.

Basically he's a forward version of Luka

The NBA have chickened out from a proper World vs US All Star Game and resorted to some gimmicky three team version instead. Opportunity lost I reckon, the US would actually be the underdogs in that game

It seems like the All Star concept is so moribund and whatever they try and do with it nothing stimulates additional excitement.
It was a real highlight of the season back in the day but I couldn't tell you the last time I bothered watching it.

It's because the players don't try. A US vs the world game worked for ice hockey. I reckon it could stir the players' competitive fire but the league don't want it
-
Starting 5 for the International team are basically the 5 best players in the league.
PG - Doncic
SG - SGA
SF - Giannis
PF - Wemby
C - JokicProbably doesn't matter what the NBA do to spice up the All Star game because the players won't play hard anyway. It'll only ever be good if the players play seriously.
-
Mavs down by 7 end of 3rd
They keep threatening to go on a run and cut that deficit but Cippers holding them off.
-
An airball layup, it's true what @gt12 said about the Mavs..... They are bad.
-
Mavs went on their run. Tied game, if they can play with poise Clippers are there to be beaten.
-
Double OT loss, Mavs just make too many basic errors - errant passes, shot clock violation, blown layups.
Got to look at Kidd, with or without their stars, the team does not give off the look of being well coached or in synch.
-
shouldabeen MVP last season too
I know SGA is great, but he was on an absolutely outstanding team last season, everyone was great; Joker was dragging the Nuggets every f'n game.
-
Yeah well.
I think any guard would have looked fantastic in that particular team.
It was the "team" that was fantastic.
One of the most dominant regular season teams ever.
And they still got taken to seven by the most overrated player in the league, in what really was a one man team.Lets see how the rest of his career plays out.
-
Jokic did win an MVP finishing 6th in the West.
I think Jokic was better than SGA, but I can understand them giving MVP to someone on a 68 win team. No matter who won between the two, there were gonna be a lot of complaints.
Jokic is clearly more important to the Nuggets than SGA is to the Thunder though. Thunder still won 5 of their 6 games without SGA last season. They won those games by an average of 22.6 points. They are loaded compared to the Nuggets.

I’ll take the overs on SGA’s career if that’s what you’re offering. He’s already the 3rd best SG in history. Amazing scorer. Incredible defender. And a galvanising leader. You’re mad - actually, I’ll rephrase - fucking delusional - if you think that “any guard “ could have led that team to the title.
None of that is to diminish the player that Joker is.
But equally don’t diminish OKC getting over the line for their first title just because Indy were plucky. It’s dangerous ground
Take a look at Joker in the playoffs - stats can really paint a picture:
Joker playoffs
7 years
16 series
10-6 overall
1-6 vs 1-3 seed
9-0 vs 4-8 seed
0-5 vs >50 win teams
10-1 vs <50 win teamsWe can all write a story to suit.
