Rudy owns Jokic
Embiid owns Jokic
Wembenyama will own Jokic by this time next season

Dwight was a physical monster in the league. A literal gigachad. He came into the league a Christian man trying to be an uplifting role model. Kikes got in his ear day one. Tempted him with endless pussy. A young rich stud full of hormones, he couldn't resist. Got like 10 roasties pregnant and had a harem of the hottest women in the US. Then the jews set him up with a catfish tranny off instagram. He let the demons get the best of him and had a moment of weakness. Kikes crucified him for it, even though half the league is openly gay at this point.

Man I hope so but I think this is the start of Jokic's downfall. He got exposed hard.

He needs to learn some new moves like when Jordan got the fadeaway. Or when Lillard improved his range and started bombing logob three because he got exposed by Jrue and Rondo when he faced the pelicans.

He needs to stop with all those horse racing bullcrap and just focus on bball. He can horserace all he wants when he retires but right now he needs and wants to win at least 3 chips.

For all the hype that Jokic gets for his dominant play, only one trip to finals won't look good on his resume. It's not like he's had bad teams, it's more about how poorly he takes care of his body. He's going to have to take training a lot more seriously if he wants to extend his career and find more post-season success.

gayson gaytum is like a swashbuckler on offense. the definition of swashbuckler is a swaggering, daring adventurer or a flamboyant, heroic swordsman. while not a swordsman, he clearly fits all of these other traits on the offensive side of the ball.
And on the flipside, defense, gaytum is clearly a stickler. The definition of that being a person who insists on strict adherence to specific rules, details, or, high standards

Ant never does anything spectacular in the playoffs

Why does OKC get favoritism?

Originally I thought there was some type of discrimination going on against the Euro league players. After all, why is Luka not even in the MVP discussion? When he's clearly had the best season, statistically speaking. Jokic might not win even though he averages a triple double. Is the NBA scared of the Euroleague becoming the world's most dominant basketball league?

Why are Shai and the OKC thunder promoted, and Denver/Jokic and or Luka not?

It simply comes down to marketability. Even though OKC isnt a big market, it comes down to who is most marketable on the world stage. OKC is:

Young
homegrown
clean
all best players already tied down to long contracts.
Built to be a "dynasty"

Therefore, this is the most marketable team in the NBA. No other team could claim this. THIS, is why they get so much favoritism from the officials.

Wemby. Another player that is heavily promoted by the NBA is receiving MVP consideration this season? WHY? His numbers aren't nearly as good as Luka or Jokic, yet why is he considered for MVP?

Wemby:
Speaks English well
media-friendly
Unique, “alien” type player (easy to sell)
Plays a flashy, highlight-heavy style

Jokic:
Boring, not flashy
Doesn't care
Doesn't chase media

Luka:
Polarizing, more expressive
Complains too much to refs

Taking this all in together you can now see why teams like the OKC/Shai and The Spurs/Wemby have become THE teams to market for the NBA.

In conclusion, this is all about marketability now. NBA is not about which team is the best. Teams get favorability from Refs and media based on how marketable they are.

Devin Booker is correct when he says the NBA is turning into WWE. And it's all because of marketing.

TLDR:
OKC/Shai get favoritism from officials because OKC is the most marketable team in the NBA.

Wemby gets favoritism in media because he's the most marketable player on the world stage

Typical subhuman NBA fan

rudy gobert clapped jokic's cheeks, of course jokic isn't in the running fro mvp

Jokic exposes Lebrons entire career.
You cant refute it. Jokic is a beast but that high usage style of his and lebrons doesn't win you rings. Only way to win is against inferior opponents with star studed cast. Think about it. Give jokic ANT and he wins 4 rings. Lebron only could beat young okc with fraud durant, game 7 spurs, game 7 warriors, Miami Heat in a mickey ring. Game 7 is important because it tells you both teams were equal. His losses: swept, choked, outplayed by a mini version of him, LeGMd himself, LeOutplayed by KD, LeSwept. When he lost he was demolished. When he won he barely did it.

>>154354557
>Jokic exposes LeBron's entire career.

>>154354649
Why doesn't anybody talk about it then?

OKC gets favoritism from refs because they are the most marketable team in the NBA. Period. End of story.

They are not the best team. They are the most marketable team, therefore the NBA will show them favoritism.

Booker was right this shit is just WWE at this point.


STOP PRETENDING THIS SHIT IS REAL

>>154354746
Obviously, that's why they aren't championship contenders. There is reason why FVV plays 37 mpg in the regular season and 40 mpg in the playoffs, this is what the Rockets offense looks like without him.

>>154354789
Do they have a path towards getting another playmaker for next year? What about Reed Sheppard, are they trying to let him fill that role?

Took two out of three last night. Nuggets came out with zero passion and Jokic was daydreaming about horses. We're gonna keep the winning days rolling. Let's smash those bookies.

>Celtics -7.5
Celtics are 17-4 ATS in the playoffs when favored after a loss (since 2021). Boston was 18-8 ATS this season after a loss. They are simply the best bounce-back team in the league and they are the better team in this series.

>Lakers-Rockets over 207.5
The first two games were low scoring, mostly because Rockets can't buy a bucket, or even a layup. But in front of their home crowd, back against the wall, I think they knock down their shots tonight. This is a low total so we really just need both teams to hit their averages tonight.

>Spurs-Blazers over 219.5
With Wemby out, the Spurs defense will take a big hit. They will have to play through Fox, who likes to push the pace. 62 of the Spurs 82 games this season went over this total. Both teams should be able to hit the 110s tonight.

Good luck, and don't bet what you don't have.

Trae has only himself to blame, if he didn't lead the league in turnovers and if he wasn't a low percentage chucker then the teams he is one wouldn't perform so terribly.

>>154355480
The defense is always more physical in the post season that’s why regular season awards just don’t matter, only post season success. Jokic didn’t play a single 50 win team on his run, his legacy is tarnished

Hey subhuman,

The league wants OKC to win. They are easily the most marketable team in the NBA. That is why over and over they are favored by the refs. That is why they allow OKC to hack and foul the shit out of their opponents under the guise of "good defense" while calls do not go the other way.

It is not the refs, it is the league. All that matters is marketing.

>>154355433
I'm a Pacers fan and I noticed in the playoff series last year that any time the Knicks would go on a run, it was when KAT was knocking down 3s. When he would defer to Brunson, the Knicks would flounder. I think Brunson can create shots sporadically, but he's not a true PG like Haliburton. It seems like the Knicks start goofing it up when they're playing through Brunson.

>>154355600
He's a $20 mil a year player max and he knew that

I've been saying for years Jokic is a bum against actual centers and only thrives when he has a huge physical matchup. I'd take Vlade Divac and Arvydis Sabonis over him. If he played in the NBA 20 years ago he would be a mediocre bum at best

My Pacers had no problem with them last year until Haliburton's injury in Game 7. You have to swarm them on defense. You have to double team every play. You have to play fast and get as many fastbreaks as you can. Teams in the West just sit there and watch SGA step into any shot he wants. You have to get it out of his hands. You can't be afraid to rise on them either.

Teams in the West played scared against them. That's why I think Wolves are the only team that might give them problems in the West. And then Celtics are the only team in the East that can fuck with them until Hali gets back.
