Jokic was actually the guy I was trying to trade Jabari for. Was debating between the two players when OTC at 32.

I will say that I don't like that paring defensively with KP at all. Team is slow footed and while Jokic is amazing offensively, is still a negative on defense.

he just is too skilled and talented to pass up there. I will make it work. Will have to get the right complimentary pieces. If the right offer comes in I will always be willing to talk to the people who wanted him though.

Yeah, he was definitely solid value. One of my favorites in the game. I was literally flip flopping between him and Jabari at 32. I love his offensive game, just not the fit with KP.

seriously, I need to stand out. Drafting this far down I need to be different. Having two of the most skilled talented big men in the league will be an offensive nightmare. And KP blocks shots and defends and Jokic is a rebounding machine.

defensively it will take time (and other good fitting pieces). Offensively its unstoppable with Jokic post up and passing ability and KP's range and cutting ability.

Jokic is nice, but not the player I had in mind next to KP. He's a good asset to have if you choose to trade him later on.

very possible. I had targets of McCollum and Milsap originally who were taken. Then I was thinking shot blocking and make it impossible to score in the paint with Gobert or Whiteside.

So I decided to get the best value IMO and while the defensive fit isn't sexy. Offensively its beyond dynamic.

Can easily see the chemistry they gonna develop if you keep Jokic, Jokic basically like Willy on drugs

I am just glad Jokic went before my original pick 51 lol
