Clippers have no real dribble penetration to set anyone up, they play without a PG like the Lakers but don't have a LeBron to act like a PG.

Doc Rivers is an overrated coach. Don't let the fact that he won a ring with the Celtics fool you.

Did you notice his 'Wired" moments. Blah-blah bs like "we better in offense when we play good defense", "we should calm down now", "we need to control our emotions". Is he a therapist or a basketball coach after all?

Malone seems like a soft soul as well but every time he speaks, he speaks basketball and its clearly that he knows it.

The only reason people are sleeping on Jokic is that he is from Europe. Sure he is average defender but offensively he is like 10th times better than both Embiid and Anthony Davis. And unlike them he is clutch AF.

Jokic best franchise big in the game, where you at melo and mpharris?

This Nuggets team is just different man. Picked this series to go 7 because they’re awfully unpredictable yet weirdly resilient.

With Joker they have that special player to beat the Clippers in game 7. He always shows up. But as does Kawhi.

I hope the Nuggets do beat the Clips and upset the Lakers in the next round because homegrown teams > fabricated superteams with folks forcing trades.

AD plays defense and is already in the WCF. Jokic is the 2nd or third best big in the league and there’s nothing wrong with that.

Luka hasn’t accomplished half of what Jokic has done in Denver, let alone Harden, LET ALONE Curry, Bron, KD or Kawhi. He’s a great talent but let’s not put him on that pedestal yet. He definitely has some magic in him that seemingly only the greats possess (and some outliers like Rondo) but let’s wait until he can win a round because the playoffs are what matter. In fairness, I want to see what he can do with a better supporting cast. But I need to see more.

1a Curry
1b Bron
1c Kawhi
4 KD
5 Harden
6 Jokic
7 Dame
8 AD
9 Giannis
10 Luka

Goes something like that.

Or THIRD?

You could dedicate your life to helping the poor, you’re going straight to hell for this.

I’m about to scream at you like SAS whenever Phil Jackson is mentioned.

:lol:
I might have Embiid higher. He also plays defense. He averaged 30 PPG and 12 rebounds in the playoffs this year. I can't blame him for losing against Boston because he carried them and he didn't have much help around him.

AD = soft. Jokic = clutch. No discussion here.

Kawhi is a poor Melo with defense but without Popovich!

Morrs is a JR Smith in a Sheed body, Paul George is a rich man Iman, Beverly is a Prigioni without a brain, Shamet is a skinny Novak... how can you expect this team to be a championship caliber?!

Moreover with a dumbass coach
Strength and Honour!
