Connelly drafts really well but sucks at team building and it’ll cost jokic and looking like it’ll cost the wolves too. They did not need to give porter a max, small stuff like the beasley trade was bad too. Booth did a nice job this offseason with the brown and kcp pickups but Murray is really going have to get hot for the nuggets to match how they looked in 2021 post Gordon trade

They can win a ring if Murray can get back to his 2021 form (21+ on good efficiency) and MPJ stays healthy and develops a bit more. I really thought Murray would be a 25 PPG scorer by now. Maybe he would have been if he hadn't torn his ACL.

Yea if that happens I agree though their bench does have issues too.
[QUOTE=FultzNationRISE;14703608]While he has three point range, he’s statistically not a sniper out there.
Crazy as it sounds, he might actually be more of a Magic/Kareem hybrid :biggums:[/QUOTE]
He's a damn monster however you want to slice it. He's absolutely a top three player in the NBA these last few years. I can't rank him any lower than 3.
Taking this from Reddit for Jokic.
25/11/9 on 62% — First seed in West — Leads NBA in +/- — Tied 1st in double doubles — Tied 1st in triple doubles — Most APG by a center ever — First ever 25/10/5 season on 60 FG% If you’re curious: yes, he leads the league in PER, WS, BPM and VORP.
We are potentially looking at a GOAT offensive stretch for a Center these last few years. Just a shame that we know the current NBA is easier to play in offensively compared to the last 30 years or so.
I didn't even realize he was shooting 62% from the FIELD, that is fcking insane :lol Not even Shaq or Kareem did that.
But as it stands now, in addition to being foreign, Jokic looks like he's going to be the biggest casualty of rangz culture the league has seen. As someone else said, you really can argue, just on peak play, Jokic is a top 15-20 player ever, but he will sadly never be remembered that way without any titles.

He will easily be remembered as top 20. Guys like Barkley and Malone routinely fall in that 15-20 range and Jokic has peaked higher than both.
3rd best player in the league. An absolute beast of a player and might be the best passing big in NBA history already at this point. :applause:

All the impact stats you jerk off to have him clearly over your hero. Accept that your boys been surpassed.

Even more amazing is the fact that he was the 41st pick in the league almost a decade ago. His improvement over the years has been nothing short of outstanding.

Kawhi was the best player in the league in 2015 by this logic. Jokic’s best teammate the last two years has been Aaron Gordon :oldlol:

So a guy who averaged 16 ppg and got eliminated in the first round was the best player in the league in 2015?
:facepalm
