Yeah everyone wants one of the best big men of all time.


Keep exaggerating, keep defending Scottie's passiveness

expecting more anything more than 4 assist to 4 turnovers is too much i guess.

This guy aint elite at scoring, passing, or defending but i guess fans need to go easy on the highest paid raptor...ever.


Keep bitching man. That's all you do here. Isn't there a better way for you to spend a Friday night? Maybe having one of the best offensive arsenals of all time for a big man is why the ball runs through Jokic on every play? Use some common sense man. Enjoy the game.

Nurse would never play this lineup.

Their starting lineup is getting punched in the face by Mitchell/Battle/Mogbo/Boucher/Poeltl.

Comparing Scottie to a top 20 player of ALL TIME is crazy.


Its about the mentality and agressiveness, not a direct comparison.

With that said, both Barnes and Jokic are the face of their respective franchise in 2024


I don't think Jokic was the Jokic of today in his first few years, and that's not a talk about talent about his talent, but he saw he needed to take over.

It's possible Barnes may need to go through that, and maybe that's why Darko plays him with the Bench, the mentality may not come overnight.

They're winning because of grit and hard-play. It ain't about a hot shooting night.
