I saw a compilation of the flops Jokic had in that game. Ridiculous. All the talk about Shai being a foul merchant, but that was some of the worst flopping I've ever seen in 1 game. Bringing that spirt of Vlade back.

Seems like he’s in desperate survival mode.

I’ve never seen him display such an egregious level of flopping before..

Jokic is the current hardest player to officiate. I feel he does get fouled A LOT and it doesn't get called. He also flops a lot and gets away with a lot of pushing and holding as well.

I am curious how different Zubac looks for the games in LA. Lue mentioned not being able to match up his minutes with Jokic due to fatigue. I wonder how much the elevation had a factor in that. Clippers need to get more out of Powell and Bogdanovic. Bog especially has been a disaster in the minutes he's played. He's way better than he's shown. I think Clippers close this out in 6. Much more depth.

That's what I think...



Zu is making him work and Jokic is doing this shyt because it's getting real out there. Jokic is usually feasting on modern 5's that are light in the ass...now he's banging with an oak tree while also having to run the offense and help on defense.

Jokic in “desperate survival mode” after one subpar game. Th-th-TheColi.com.

Not sure what to make of this series

If Kawhi’s knees hold up, he’s back to being a top 5 player. The same guy who obliterated Butler, Embiid, Giannis, and Luka in playoff series and was looking to add Booker and KD to the list until the knees gave out. It’s always the knees once we think he’s turned the corner with the knees.

At the same time, even if he sustains it, Jokic can be just as unstoppable and DEN still has some clear advantages on the boards. Series gonna be ridiculous

Not to mention Zubac and Harden havent been able to be guarded either.

Denvers extremely lucky not to be down 0-2, but they arent, so its anyones series. I dont think either team can defend each other, its just a matter of who gets hotter

 

[Piff Huxtable]

both teams could be up 2-0, so 1-1 after two games seems fitting

 

[Primetime]

you can't play simmons whose a black hole on offense for long

Yea but if you’re gonna play him just 7 minutes, it should be end of half/game offense-defense substitutions.

Otherwise just bench the bum entirely. His standout value is he’s an athletic 6’10 who shouldn’t get outmuscled on the glass. So at least in the moments where they need a stop, insert him… to see if that’ll stop reoccurring 3 straight offensive rebounds n shyt from DEN.

 

[Don Homer]

this series is reminding me of the Clippers/Spurs series in 2015

those 2 teams were so evenly matched, just like denver and the clippers are now

For sure, I think the Clippers have more skilled/versatile scorers while Denver has a grit and tenacity that helps counteract it.

Like, if you gon put Bogdonavic in the game DEN gon go at him like pitbulls. Braun and Russ can’t score like Norm and Harden, but they’ll attack the glass every chance on them.

I think which team shoots better, esp the spot up 3s, but also which limits the turnovers

So basically your saying whichever team plays better wins.. got it, great insight

That was just outlandish. I almost turned that shyt off.

That dude is just tragic smh.

TNT didn't show us this angle last night, Jokic was on some other shyt with the flopping last night, dude was hooping like Marty Jannetty
