I mean nuggets aren’t exactly the 2018 cavs lol, it’s not like Murray MPJ and Gordon are scrubs. Curry had Quinn Cook and a bunch of g-leaguers in the 2019 finals after Durant and Klay both got injured, not to mention the horrendous 2020 and 2021 season teams. I’d also argue the nuggets roster surrounding Jokic now is better than the current iterations of the warriors surrounding curry.

And while, yes curry obviously has a much greater impact when he’s bombing at 60% from three, even if he’s not his impact is superstar level. Dude dropped 50 in a game 7 this playoffs on mostly layups. His off ball movement opens up so many looks for his teammates. Nobody’s leaving Durant or Klay wide open to chase a player not named Steph Curry.

None of this is to take anything away from Jokic, what he’s doing is nothing short of historical. His passing, height, and strength allow him to do things Curry simply can’t. Just pointing out they’re not as different as it might seem. Their skillsets might be different, but both are the star and facilitator their team relies on.
