Without Jokic these nuggets would be competing with the Magic and rockets for the 1st pick

Jokic is just so damn good man. You involve him in the play in any way and he makes something happen. I feel for him.

That’s game - congrats Warriors fans

Nuggets fans, look forward to next season when MPJ and Murray are back and increase the average IQ of the team by double digits :D

I hate you Gordon I just do...that’s why you didn’t get dunk contest trophy —— the basketball gods punished you in the past for what you just did....

Not much. It was a lose-lose for both teams.

He undercut him. What are you on about.

What he was in Jokic's space when he landed if that was Curry that would be a foul and a tech

honestly, i don't know how anyone can watch this series and the 76ers series and not think that jokic is absolutely the more valuable player to their respective teams....

Man…for everything Joker does for the Nuggets on one play, guaranteed one of his teammates **** up on the next. Only so many times you can bail this team out.

Any other player wouldn't have had this team in the playoffs. Maybe other than Giannis.

Gotta give it to Curry.

Win or lose I give Joker props for what he has done despite the limited supporting cast.

Jokic is a beast. Hope Embiid watches tape of his game so he can see how a MVP plays in crunch time, when injured

How does Jamal Murray get cleared by the medical staff and still not want to return with his team playing like this?

He would make such a huge difference over Jokic’s scrub teammates.

Jokic is doing everything I can. I will say he’s getting abused on defense tho.
