No, it isn't.

Out of all reasonable MVP candidates, Jokic has the least amount of help.

Can Draymond score like… at all?

y'all talking about great Jokic teammates are missing on Murray and MPJ. Not to mention best 3pt shooter by % in the team for this season is also injured

I've been saying this all along.
They're role players and none of them can be compared to Klay or Draymond, for example.

The highest scorer was AG at 15 PPG for the regular season. That's not exactly the kind of playoff reliability you want.

You can apply that to every team in the league. Compared to other playoff teams, Jokic has a very weak supporting cast

exactly

Some of those guys are really really bad, I mean Facu played tonight haha
Both Green's are lol bad
compared to other playoff rosters - it's a really bad roster

'no help' doesn't mean he's literally alone, only that it's relative

Jokic has been bit sloppy with the ball on offense today. Atleast started the 2nd half better

How many teams in the NBA could be down their 2nd and 3rd scorers and still be in this position. Jokic and the Nuggets keep fighting!

Will Denver be the first team to win a series down 3-0? The record has to fall sometime.

the Warriors is really stupid to buy in media's hype of their lethal weapon 3, yada yada...
you got to have size to defend first...

I think Warriors completely changing their rotation in Game 5 has thrown them off their rhythm. Should have just had Poole come in as the 6th man.

I wonder if Bjelica will see the floor......

I think this series is going 7. Warriors are cooling off and their bench role players are all basically non-existent outside of GP2.

Feel the mile high championship fire, folks, feel it!

The GSW has good players narrative is utter nonsense. That team is mostly just Poole and some roleplayers.

Does Looney have a brain?

Peregrine01 · Post #257 » by **Peregrine01** » Thu Apr 28, 2022 3:39 am

Speaks to how ridiculously versatile that Jokic is that he can play literally every position on offense.

Shouldve activated wiseman for the playoffs at least a different look than looney lol. Longer taller and way more athletic
