40-7-13 on 75 TS% and zero turnovers tonight against the DPOY. The Nuggets went from 0-2 to leading the series 3-2.

It's time for Jokic's haters to crawl back into their holes.

But don't be sad! Here, I found one video to cheer you up:

Jokic is a guy that needs a superstar like Murray to make his game work. He can't take over without that second punch on the perimeter the way other ATGs could. Now that Murray has been exposed, so has Jokic. What's funny is that those really watching told you this year's ago when he only got the sixth seed without him.

To me he is the third best player in the NBA - Luka and Embiid are comfortably ahead of him. Last year he took advantage of an injured field, and a weakened conference in a transition year. He had Murray playing like a superstar and to his credit got it done. But his awards don't match his greatness and in a few years everyone will come around to what I'm saying here right now.



100% agree, but social media will hate this take. Hold down the fort, because this is clear as day.

Turns out it wasn't "clear as day" like he initially thought so eyeatoma is probably getting his eyes checked.

This is the greatest hijinx in NBA history. The dude is amazing but Embiid is better and schools him everytime.

What's worse is that that dodo Gobert is a multi dpoy winner while Embiid has destroyed him every time he's played.

What a terrible outcome for us these last 10 years.

Man is crying himself to sleep. You can genuinely see the desperate nature in some fans as their position gets harder and harder and harder to defend.

Nothing hard to defend. Jokic had a great game yes. He also did it against someone who has come up small in the playoffs, every single time he's showed up, even though he's won DPOY over and over again. All Jokic did was show up Gobert for the fraud that he is. Until he does it against Embiid in the playoffs, there will always be an asterisk to his dominance.

Also I'd say you've got your own problems to worry about. Least the Sixers have tons of capspace to revamp the roster. What moves do the Suns have?

:crazy:

That`s the problem as a western conference team - you`ll only get to come up against an eastern team if they will make it to the finals.

So, basically, you just said there's an asterisk to Jokic's greatness because Embiid can't make it out of the 2nd round.

Jokic has cooked Gobert, Towns, Reid, Adebayo, Davis, and Ayton these last two postseasons. Some of them twice now.

Embiid still checks under his bed for playoff Al Horford.

Last I checked Embiid has dominated Jokic and Gobert in the regular season for the last few years. Sure there's the playoffs, but he' always injured. Put up peak Embiid against, peak Jokic and Embiid will win every time.

The post season is a farce. Let's have all the players do an arduous 82 game slog, and then the healthiest team in the league wins. Lame. The game has changed, players are far more overworked than before, you have more than half the playoffs teams suffereing multiple injuries, allowing teams like the Celtics to sleepwalk through the playoffs when they clearly have issues. A healthy team against the Nuggets would be a different story.

The NBA has been ruined by gambling, massive TV deals, and the greedy Adam Silver not giving two **** about player wellbeing, and just relying on whatever this bs is. If you want to do it like that, better to have the NBA playoffs be like the NFL, where it's one and done each round.
