Aaron Gordon was phenomenal in this game…probably his best post season performance of his career. He does not get enough credit for this particular game(outside of you Jason). Dude was unstoppable on both ends of the floor.
AG is the new PG of Denver. What he did in game 4 was really cheating. I still forget that he was #1 option back in Orlando.
Ant and Jokic have so much respect for each other. Especially ANT, been highlighting in interviews that Jokic is the best player in the world
Good analysis, dude

I absolutely love your content. Thank you for satiating my NBA playoffs post game(s) addiction!!!!
TWolves have 1.5 legitimate offensive players, ANT and sometimes KAT, who no shows. TWolves are relying on ANT, shooting 56% from the field and 44% from 3, that's not sustainable, he is going to have at least one off game in this series.
We know Jason u tha real one! Keep rolling man, we must tell when someone do wrong and of course when he doing right! 💯👍
Job is not done! One game by one…. 10 more to go! No flying high after those 2 games. At all! LFG Denver 💪💪💪
39:32 – that's such an awesome pass. At first glance it merely looked like a decent/good pass. But Jokic's insanely quick transition from a fake shot to a flip pass with such small margin of space to get through makes it so much better than how it looks at a glance. In particular Jokic's fake shot attempt looked genuine and that period of time between the fake shot to a flip happened so fast even in slow motion.
As a Nuggets fan-i agree 100 %. You've been among the highest nationally on Jokic. But you have to be honest & hold every player accountable on game to playoff game basis-while still recognizing the big picture.You do a great & fair job of that with everybody but particularly true with Jokic.
I often bring you up at the arena-when talking to Nuggets fans who swear everybody nationally disrespects,& wants to question Jokic.You,Colin,JJ Redick,Tim Legler,Bill Simmons,Rusillo,Tim Mcmahon,& Lowe(ESPN)-I always bring up as longtime Jokic deffenders,& are usually completely fair in their analysis of him.
This was not an iconic performance lmao
Great video
I love true and honest analysis
Im glad to subscribe 👍
These people had such a huge hard on to call jokic trash they didn't even waited for the series to end. For once main stream media and alt media together were already cheering after two losses.
There is no answer in personnel for Minnesota with Denver bigs bringing the ball up…period
All the people that was in these comments after game 2 crushing Jason seems to have gone missing 🤣🤣

The amount of people that think the tpups are done is wildddd.
KAT is exposed as one of the dumbest players in the league. Super talented, but man how frustrating to be a fan of Wolves and having to rely on him to come along with Anthony Edwards. Stupid fouls and poor shot selection. Imagine sitting in team film session and seeing what Edwards is doing and then how rest of team is coming up short. Ouch. Ant, call your agent and get some real help.
For me, after the merge of NBA and ABA in 1976-77 season, just talking about their prime year, only Lebron and MJ were definitely better than Jokic.
Just show the half court shot from Murray! I know it's luck but why end right before 😂
