Watching Nikola Jokic is what Arvydas Sabonis could have been if not for Soviet Union.

    That’s not to far off. Sabonis was unreal. Prime Sabonis would brought the Blazers a title

  2. Sabas was 7’3″ and way more athletic. Jokic a better dribbler and shooter. Sabas had fantastic touch but I think Jokic has him there, too. I believe their passing ability is similar. Whatever the case, Sabas is obviously the mold that created Jokic. Even though NBA fans seem to increasingly forgot what he was really capable of, Sabas will always be my favorite player.

    Change your mind?

    He never would have recovered from the achilles injury under the American health care system.

    Sabonis was a tier above Jokic. Change my mind

    This is how I had to pitch him to my 65 year old dad. It worked. Blazer fan til I die but I still enjoy high level basketball 😆

    The nuggets are like hey we gave you nurk. What’s the difference anyway, we have two good centers and we gave you one. Okay maybe the one we kept is a little bit more skilled overall. Okay maybe we fucking ripped you off
