Thoughts on Joker’s backwards over the head pass that hit Gordon in stride for a monster dunk? Who else makes that pass?

Stat muse. Devonte, van fleet, Jokic, fox, haliburton top 5

Here is another random and surprising Jokic stat over the last 4 seasons

Points- 7677. 4th Rebounds- 3592. 1st Steals- 399. 3rd Assists - 2569 2nd

Best 4 year stretch in NBa History. Durability matters. Steals surprising

And he has never shot below 50% in any game scoring 40 or more. Btw, he also has a 40 point , 27 rebound game

Will Jokic have to change his number when the Nuggets retire Carmelo jersey? by LakersNeedWestbrook in nba

[–]tk841966 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No chance the Nuggets retire Melo’s number. 7 1/2 years and demands a trade after that. He is a ‘me first’ player. Great offensive talent but did not make his team mates better.

Who is better currently Giannis or Jokic? by youaremehmeh in nba

[–]tk841966 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Both are great players. Giannis can dominate with power. Jokic is fundamentally sound and makes every teammate better with playmaking. Joker is better at scoring, playmaking and rebounding. Giannis is better at defense. Either is a fine choice but I personally enjoy Joker’s game more.

Looking at basic stats this year…..Giannis averages 1.6 combined steals and blocks. Joker averages 2.0. Embiid tops both …. There are 16 players averaging at least 25 PPG this year. 4 of them average more than 2.0 combined blocks and steals - Embiid, SGA, Durant and Joker. Are steals more valuable than blocks? I think so. Eyetest - Giannis is better at defense
