Well you know that Nik Jokic, he's no physical phenom, but what he lacks in measurable, he makes up for with his great basketball IQ and high motor
Cacs are saying Nikola Jokic > Carmelo Anthony
- Thread starter SpursFanSinceNovember2017
- Start date
Shaq really only had one good year and that was the first year. He regressed after that due to age and injuries. He wasn't the same.
How's Melo career better? Even if you take away the rings Wade still had a better career. And did so with bad knees dating back to Marquette
Besides Melo and Lebron wouldn't have worked like Wade and Lebron. I don't see Melo being selfless like Wade. Case and point they tried to tell Melo to sign the same deals so they can enter free agency together. Nope, he wanted to do his own thing and ended up having his contract end after theirs so they couldn't link up and they went with Bosh. I can see Melo and Bron clashing at some point. Friends or not.
Look at the 2009 roster. Nuggets had JR, Billups, Nene, K Mart while Miami had old ass Jermaine O'neal and knucklehead Michael Beasley.
Wade on that Denver team gives them a better score and defender. Not saying they beat LA but they would've put a serious scare in em. They would've had a better chance than Denver that year
Stop playing hypotheticals.
Look at the coaches.
Karl got outplayed and stunk it up.
Sounds like another poster that didn't watch the series.
He is

Yeah I don't see any of those Melo led teams doing what this team just did, weren't tough enough mentally to get the job done and overall just perennial losers. This coming from a guy who early liked Melo over Bron with all his hype, so it hurts a little.
The eras are also different and that plays a part a little bit, but Jokic has advantages in Melo's main strength (offense) that he can't overcome and defensively they wash out.

Prime Melo was better . The overrating of Jokic is because dudes on here are heavily influenced by cacs and reddit culture . Imagine stanning a center who can’t defend 
. He’s Brook Lopez with a reddit following

Well at least Melo got two wins
I'm still waiting for the reason that in 2 post seasons appearances Jokic tied the amount of wins Melo had in 8
This post is so damn stupid on its own but even worse when you realize that Jokic carried Denver in the first gane 7 vs the Jazz including a game winning hook he hit over Gobert. The quality of discussion on this board is so bad it'll be TLR status in 2 years, assuming this website is still aroundseemorecizzy

one has nothin to do with the otherI'm still waiting for the reason that in 2 post seasons appearances Jokic tied the amount of wins Melo had in 8
different times, different teams, different league.
its stupid to even bring up..thats probably why you got ignored. the fact that you think that is a " got you moment" proves how dumb you are lol
denver coming from 3-1 against utah isnt impressive, they were the favourite and shouldnt be down in the first place. also, the only reason they came back is because of jamal fukkin murray, not jokic lmao murray kept havin50 point games so gtfoh
jamal murray is da best player on the team, not jokic. jokic in his own words called murray their "leader" after the lakers loss.
you white boys just look at stats. jokic was a non factor against da lakers especially in the 4th. gettin bodied by a washed up dwight howard

Youre blaming a different era for Melo managing 17 wins in 8 years. Nothing else needs to be said, you're retarded lmaoone has nothin to do with the other

Breh, did you watch any of Denver the last 2 years besides the most recent game?
Jokic scored 9 points in the last 3 minutes of the 4th in Game 2 and would have had the game winner with 20 seconds left if AD hadn't hit that three. Made it on a straight iso against AD, the DPOY runner-up, and just bullied him. Made it look easy.
Game 5 against the Clippers when the Nuggets were down 3-1 in the series and down 5 in the 4th, Jokic went 4-4 with two threes to put up 10 points in the final 8 minutes of the game and got a key block on Harrell at the rim.
Very next game, Nuggets were down to start the 4th again but Jokic went 4-7 with 3 threes in the period for 11 points in the last 9 minutes and pulled out another win.
Eight minutes to go in Game 7 against the Jazz and Utah was up by 3 to close out the series. Jokic scored 8 points on 4-6 shooting in the last 8 minutes including the game-winner with 27 seconds left over DPOY Gobert to eliminate the Jazz. Had 30 of Denver's 80 points in the game.
Those were 4 of the most important 4th quarters in the bubble and Jokic showed out in all of them. Yeah, he didn't do it in games 4/5. But four times in one postseason run is enough to dead any claims that he can't do it.
And that's JUST the postseason. Even before the playoffs started, Jokic had more game-winners in the 2019 AND 2020 seasons than anyone else in the NBA.
Any narrative that Jokic can't create a shot when it matters is just dumb. Is he a top-tier NBA scorer? No. But he's a very good 20+ppg scorer who can do it in the biggest moments.
