This series really showed the difference between an All-NBA player in Dame and an actual MVP in Jokic.

Dame is great, but a tier below the elite of the elite.

PS: The Nuggets bench obviously made a big difference in the series.

They gonna be playing Alec Burks, Reggie Bullocks, Nerlens Noel and possibly Frank next year. My only hope is that they don't take Taj from us.

Ive been saying for 2+ years now that if I needed to start a NBA team, Jokic would be my first pick.

he's the only player other than LeBron that can fit next to anyone/everyone in any time and era, any pace.

All the Suns have to do is set a screen on Davis and he's out for the rest of the game.

I think you can say the same for a few other players though but yeah Jokic is on a different level.

Hmm what else do you think Dame could have done to show he was elite during this series? I'm basically thinking, there's a reason why Dame can shoot 17-24, score 55, get 10 assists, even get 3 blocks...and still lose a game. And the reason isn't Dame.
