Kick ball merchant Nikola Jokic is allowing 70 percent at the rim. Worst amongst Centers. Man ain't defending shyt

[holidayinn21]

Two of the better defenders in the league are at the top of this (Toumani and Avidja)

If you using this to measure defense without context

Two "elite" defender on the 3rd worst defense in the league

Your math ain't adding up my guy

 

[holidayinn21]

"Worst amongst centers"

Even when OP uses stats out of context, he still can't even get it right.

Oh so now you want "context" on stats fool?

Surprise surprise..........biggest clown on this site. You ain't talking about shyt

I'm pointing out the thread title is misleading because Bam has a worse DFG% and he's a center.

How do you expect anyone to treat your thread seriously when you start it off with a blatant lie?

 

[CHICAGO]

2023 postseason:

Jokic's DFG% at the rim - 59% on 8.1 attempts per game
AD's DFG% at the rim - 54% on 8.5 attempts per game.

I guess AD must have been targetted too.

YEA HE GOT TARGETED BY JOKIC

ALSO I WAS POINTING OUT HE JOKIC
WAS TARGETED IN EVERY POST SEASON
PRIOR TO 2023.

JIMMY WOULD HAVE TARGETED
HIM IN THE FINALS BUT HE ANKLE
WAS DONE.

Nikola "The Seam" Jokic​

 

[Loose]

He's a passable team defender, rim defense isn't his calling card

 

[holidayinn21]

Jokic is 66th in contesting shots

To put that into context: He's averaging the 5th- most minutes in the league with 36 MPG, and is averaging 4.4 per game, that is ranked 140th

That is beyond embarrassing. That's beyond lazy. The last line of defense is contesting shots at the same rate as De'Aaron Fox. Pitiful

Bam is averaging 5.1 contests per game, on relatively the same minutes. Is that beyond embarrassing and beyond lazy, especially given he has a considerably lighter offensive workload than Jokic?

Is Jokic averaging the most steals and deflections out of all big men “lazy and embarrassing”? Is Jokic averaging the 2nd most contested rebounds in the league “lazy and embarrassing”?

That’s what I thought.

He's a decent defender when he's not asked to guard the rim.

Not sure the purpose of this thread as it's not saying anything that hasn't been said about him before, unless I'm missing something?

He's 7ft and a center...what else is he going to guard

"He's a decent defender when you don't ask him to do the one thing 90% of all centers that every played in the nba have to do on defense"


Wait let me guess...defending the rim is Deandra Jordan job right

 

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

This is why Giannas has been the best player in the league for years and its not close.

How's Giannis' defense going tonight against the Nets?

 

[Mr. Jack Napier]

Now he's undersized. I've seen it all...................

Ya got it man

The excuses folks make for that sloppy Euro
