To be fair, this is just qualifiers. Edey was at the game but he didn’t play in the qualifiers due to injury concerns. Jamal Murray attended Jokic’s game. I wouldn’t be shocked if he joins in after the qualifiers.

majidLuv | Thunder

I’m not saying he should shoot more, I’m just saying he still found a way to shoot 25% from 3 this game.

Bobskidat | Thunder

He got hate after the Celtics loss so next game against the Bulls he chucked up 3s and went 0/10 then got more hate cause he’s obviously not a volume 3pt shooter

IntelligentAd5460 | Grizzlies

the list of guys who have the body that can handle taking 10 3s a game is very few even if you ignore shooting skills its basically just dame harden steph and luka

Bobskidat | Thunder

4 | 15 hours ago

Yeah, that’s why I think some of the SGA v Luka scoring debate is dumb because they have very clearly different skill sets. I don’t expect SGA to go ⁹⁄₁₇ from 3 and I wouldn’t expect Luka to shoot 60% from the midrange.

He played in the 2020 Olympic qualifying tournament when they lost to Czechia. But Canada has so many wings - between Brooks, NAW, and Kyshawn George, they’re really not missing Wiggins

Jokic slaughtered the competition in his match the other day. It must feel like playing rec games for these top 10 in the world guys. Even the more ‘average’ players. Jonas Valanciunas and Kasparas Jakucionis looked like demigods on the Lithuanian team. NBA talent is incredible when you compare them to other players.
