  1. The thing about putting 3 center sized players on the court at the same time to defend Jokic is that the team around Jokic today is a much improved team than the bubble nuggets. The bigger the defenders, the more assists for Jokic and Murray. Everybody on the nuggets can handle the ball , shoot the three and are slashers to the hoop which means when one of bigs switch to a guard or forward, the defending big is gonna get burned. While I do believe size will help against the nuggets, I don't believe it will work in a 7 game series in the 2023-2024 playoffs.

  2. I appreciate Seth is always reasonable about the Lakers despite hating them with the passion of a thousand suns.

  3. Putting more bigs out there is cute… Joking will look to draw a double team and then dish it to KCP/Murray/MPJ on the perimeter.

    And oh ya, Denver is still rolling out 6'11 Joker/ 6'9 AG/ 6'10 MPJ.

  4. AD shot 5/15 when he was covered by Jokic.
    Jokic went 6/9, 8asst when covered by AD.
    Check out last year stats and youll see Jokic was top 10 defensive center in most categories.

  5. I really think christian braun was destined for success. This guy has got luck on his side, plus some impressive basketball genes. He also seems like a genuine hard worker. I'm sure he'll earn all the rings coming his way!
