Sigh. Nothing makes me happier than a Jokic stat line that’s 22/15/13 

Yup Jokic scores a lot of points but he definitely has a more pass-first preference

He almost never goes into games looking to put up heavy shot volume from the beginning if you see him with 27 shot attempts it almost always means the team didn’t play very well as a whole

Maybe the only superstar ever where the opponent is happier when he’s scoring instead of passing

This is why I never get the people that say “Jokic needs to take over games more”. This is what happens when he has to take over games.

The +/- is telling. When Jokic is only a +2, you know it didn’t go well 

The past two losses the Nuggets bench has been outscored 114-26.

Probably not gonna win many games with that kind of production.

you know the nuggets lost when Jokic has more than 40 points and especially no triple double (assists)

It’s mainly that AG missed alot of time last season IMO. They were roughly 0.500 in games that he didnt play people just underrate the impact he has on the team. Hes arguably their best defender and hes a mismatch nightmare who unlocks Jokic’s playmaking on offense.

Honestly even today I don’t think Jok had great energy until it turned into oh shit time and then he dialed it up.

The loss to the Bulls was the perfect example. The Bulls were just coming off a 2OT game while they Nuggets had 2 days of rest and they lost. Those type of losses will make impossible for them to keep up with OKC in the regular season.

They haven’t had the bench to compete for 60+ wins

Look at the last few teams who won 60+ games, it’s cause they had great bench pieces. Cavs had Hunter, Ty Jerome, Celtics had PP, Hauser, Horford. OKC is 10 deep… Meanwhile the Nuggets have always had one dimensional coin flip “energy” guys like Westbrook or Bruce Brown instead of guys who can consistently contribute every night

Against the Lakers he would probs get a +10 attribute boost to iq

Insanely bad at winning playing losing teams

Lmao, he blew by him once, to nobody’s surprise even the Kings commentators were quick to point it out. Not quick to point out Westbrook blowing by even way quicker guards. One blow by Jokic took a smart foul. Oh no, he left Westbrick open for 3.

The gameplan was to give Russ open 3’s. That is not a high expected value shot

We lost to the Pelicans once and Washington twice last year. Its OK, its one game.

AG didn’t play, injured and out for a while most likely.

Because he lost to the Kings, on a b2b in November, without Braun and AG? Anyways, he won a championship with these dudes. They don’t suck, lol.

he has good teammates they just cant stay healthy

This year’s team is good, especially with Peyton Watson eventually being able to shot. But 2 injuries to their starters make them still a bit short. I mean, Spencer Jones played half the game.

He should join OKC.

I think if Jokic had a superteam of truly elite teammates he would choose to average like 10 points a game so you might not actually get to see this level of play actualized if he had a better team.

His team is good just injured. AG is extremely important to this team and is out. Braun as well now.

He’s had better rosters than Luka has

lol man 🤣🤣 yall don’t stop, appreciate greatness on both ends brudda

Nuggets were nothing before Jokic an will be nothing after him, definition of real stats

He should probably not coast on defense. That’s partially why he ends up blowing these crazy high scoring games. He expends too much on offense then stands still when switched onto outside defenders. I’ve seen it constantly for the last like, four years?

If coach puts him in before 6 minutes left when kings are on a run they might have

The Milwaukee Bums showing up already lol

yea jokic should’ve dropped 60 /s

He did everything he could’ve. Clutch threes, tough buckets through triple teams, etc. if giannis had this statline in a loss, would u be saying he “didn’t do enough”? Reflexively hating greatness is gross
