Jokic just took a team without another All-Star to the 2nd seed and in his first playoff app has them in the 2nd round and he just turned 24 years old. 2nd season as a full time starter, in his first two years he was switched back and forth. Putting up ridiculous numbers. I mean look at the minutes he's playing. He's leading the playoffs in touches as a ****ing C in 2019 :oldlol:
When has Cousins ever done anything like that before?

These stats are not real....He's playing against Kanter,Poltl, Mylers Leonard, and Collins.
Reality is gonna come crashing down next round if he plays the Warriors...some people won't believe things until they see it 1st hand...you will see though...Keep pretending like those arent some of the worst centers in the league all you want....you will see next round the truth of what he really is
you better fkin pray Houston knocks them off

The thing is that I won't even be shocked if he slows down abit. He's logging insane minutes and it's his first time in the playoffs.
Teams throw everything at him. S.A doubled him like crazy at times. Every team who faces Denver game plans to shut down Jokic because he's literally our entire engine. He has more responsibility with the offense than anybody in the league arguably. He was at one point leading the entire NBA in touches in the playoffs.
Jokic leads his team in PPG/APG/RPG and SPG in the regular season. How many C's have done that? How many players this year or in the past few years have done that?
Jokic has his flaws, he can be passive at times, but there's no denying he's a top 10 player and when he's locked in playing aggressive he's closer to 5 than he is too 10.
[QUOTE=tontoz]Jokic carried a team with no other All-Stars to the 2nd seed in the west. He has been even better in the playoffs.
He had the top RPM among centers during the regular season at 6.19

AD played only 1850 minutes this season compared to 2500 for Jokic. AD has played under 70 games in 5 of his 7 seasons. How valuable can you be on the bench?[/QUOTE]
Denver has talent. You
[QUOTE=GOBB]Denver has talent. You
So there
[QUOTE=GOBB]So there
[QUOTE=NuggetsFan]Both. Maybe not mainstream media because nobody cares enough about Denver but I've absolutely seen on other sites like reddit people ranking Jokic higher.
That's fair. We can agree on that. All 3 have a case, I take Jokic just because I think he has a larger impact/better to build an offense around. I also don't see him staying as a 25/12/9 player because that's just straight up ridiculous. Ignoring health of course, because with Embiid that's obviously a gigantic knock.
If Jokic never slows down and this is what you come to expect in the playoffs, obviously that starts a new conversation.[/QUOTE]
Well I admit I
[QUOTE=GOBB]Denver has talent. You’re shortchanging them as a team. Jokic isn’t a defensive anchor and somehow Denver won how many games? He averaged 7 assists and I guess he willed those baskets in the hoop? We going to act like Jamal Murray wasn’t a stud coming out of college and hasn’t shown that this season? He didn’t have back to back 30 games?
What does Jokic do better than Anthony Davis? Score? No. Rebound? No. Defend? No. Pass? Yes. That’s it. Shits hilarious how all of a sudden AD isn’t better. But again it’s ISH.[/QUOTE]
So why does Jokic have a better RPM in spite of playing over 600 more minutes?
Put AD in Jokic's place Denver might not even be in the playoffs. Jokic played 24 more games.
Murray has a PER of 16.11, RPM of 1.04 and a TS of 53.8%. *yawn*
It feels like a stupid question till you look at a list. Seems he should be in there easily....but you could put him anywhere from like....5 to 12 I think.
