KD having a Tatum-esque 1st half performance, he needs to get off the weed :lol:

Listen, I know I'm a Nuggets fan. But people really think watching Jokic play is boring? Do you not like basketball? Makes no sense.

KD...

Jokic is just toying with them. What a player.

Joker is unfortunately MVP. Embiid's edge on defense is dwarfed by Jokic's on offense.

This year is almost as bad as Giannis and Westbrook stealing two MVPs from Harden.

Joker is in god tier mode.

You know you are in trouble when Cam Payne is dramatically outplaying KD and Booker.

Hate to say it, but KD seems washed.

you could look at a highlight package and come to the conclusion that kevin durant is the greatest of all time. but theres intangibles that you won't know about just watching highlights and comparing bags. I think that's what made jordan so great is elite ability and elite intangibles. Kevin just doesn't have it man, he needs structure around him to thrive.

Yeah that was 100% a dad scoring on his 9 year old type move. Just turned and flung it up there like it was nothing.

The suns are going to fall one game short of where they were last after having traded for KD(yes cp3 and Ayton are out, I get it)

Dennis Reynolds · Post #1295 » by **Dennis Reynolds** » Fri May 12, 2023 3:14 am

I know the Suns won an extra game but if they get blown out tonight, the Timberwolves gave the Nuggets a tougher series imo.

This is really starting to look like last season's game 7 against the Mavs, sad stuff from the Suns.

Embiid is closer to amare/ prime Demarcus cousins than he is too jokic

Nets traded him at a good time I think. His value would've started to drop.

KD is naturally flabby-minded. The weed just enhances it.

+1 on the 1st half not the second half of the post

i am so happy we finally got to see what a prime Arvydas Sabonis is like, in Jokic...

Who wins?
