I think Jokic is a much better player than what Scalabrine ever was.

Those weren't just random dudes from his local gym though, those were ex-division one players a decade younger than Scalabrine.

That video really showed that NBA players are at a different level, Scal was toying with them like a dad playing against his 12 year old son.

I mean there’s being brave when you have to be, then there’s being brave in general, and then there’s this. Someone not afraid to give an opinion no matter the reaction.

I salute your courage. Way to put yourself out there.

Jokic doesn't get the same standing ovations Scalabrine did.

I think Jokic is in the discussion with Lebron at this point but I think it's pretty stupid to put Jokic in the same breath as Scalabrine. Jokic still has much to achieve before this can be a serious debate.

Brian Scalabrine never needed Jamal Murray to help him win a game or a championship.

I actually love that quote
One day Leon Powe and I were cracking up on Eddie House’s tattoo.…[Garnett] was like, ‘C’mon, Scal, it’s time to rock! What the ‘F’ are you doing?’ And I was like, ‘You know what? You’re right. It is time to rock.’ – Brian Scalabrine

Gotta give the mods some time, they are humans with lives outside of here. :lol:

You can’t prove this. I’ve never seen a mod outside of these boards.

What if I really don't know who's better? I heard Scalabrine was really good at basketball, like REALLY good. :wink:

But I guess there's no Jokicking allowed. Glad you're not a mod and never will be. I might report your threads for being lame.

Jokic has the better peak, but needs a few more years before passing Scalabrine in career value.

Chuck Norris is scared to make eye contact with Scalabrine.

Both of them don't hold a candle to Brian 'The Janitor' Cardinal
