Spurs also have the worst offense in the league.

If the Spurs had a good offense then they'd be doing that to every big making this a moot point.

Yeah, I was saying this in the playoffs last year, Joker is almost TOO active on offense early on with all the movement and running the break etc. At his size that kind of energy expenditure isnt sustainable and he ends up gassed pretty quick. I think they gotta slow his energy output down early on and let him save something for the other end of the floor and later in games. He’s absolutely unstoppable at the start of games but he wears down quick.

Not everyone can have stamina like LeBron. I suspect that Jokic having flabby grandma arms has something to do with it

This is why I don't like using defensive stats at times. The advanced stats say Jokic is a good defender, but watching him play it's obvious his defense can be easily exploited.

Would you say he’s more exploitable than Gobert?

The Raptors going at Jokic.

Some of those plays didn't really look like Jokic's fault, but man the guy is a traffic cone most of the time.
