You can only hope to outscore Joker's team, but you can never truly defeat the Joker!

Embiid is a whole tier below Jokic.

Honest, in a series against Memphis or Phoenix you could probably swap out Poole for GP2 in the death lineup, have him guard Ja or CP, and it'd be an even swap.

The Magic and Rockets easily have a better team without Jokic. He'd actually have some scoring help on those teams lol

Jokic clearly letting Curry lay it up so he doesn't foul out with 30 secs left down 5pts. lol

Cause he getting slapped with no calls and if he legit touches someone he gets the foul called...

Jokic is legit fouling people but he is getting foul calls equally right?

Steph and Jokic showing why they're the class of the league. What a back and forth.

I don’t dislike Curry. But if I did, I can see how he’d be the most punchable player in the league.

With that “go to sleep” motion…

So cocky for a little guy (by nba standards).

I can’t believe Jamal Murray wasn’t ready to go after a whole year. Joker was ready for a championship run. Absolute fling waste

Aaron Gordon is Warriors’ player of the game. Ima punch his face and throw him off the team if im Jokic.

According to your logic, Tim Duncan doesn't deserve any respect.

Jesus Nuggets find some rim protection next season. A PF who can provide that playing besides Jokic. You can't continue with this defense. Curry had like 20 lay ups in the clutch this series.
