Kenny pointed out what I said about Jokic. He seems to be pressing. You could see it at times last series

That pressure to repeat hitting hard

Yea, it's tough to repeat if you're not on a super team. Last team to repeat was the 2018 Warriors. Last defending champ to make it back to the finals was the 2019 Warriors.

Last non-super team to repeat was... depending on your definition of super team, Kobe in 2010 maybe?

Every year new young players come into the league...the fear of the league having no "guy" is overblown

Cruisin’
the nuggets need to be more decisive with their actions. Stop passing in midair Jamal needs to be an offensive option all game. Jokic is going to need to attack more and MPJ needs to be worked into the offense more regularly
Jokic was attacking. Minny just has too many bodies to throw at him. They know how to speed up his game into tough shots and passes.

Yup.

6 games in the playoffs against two opponents and the defending champs are playing sub to their standards.

Jokic turning it over like a mad man.
That’s all defense. They playing him straight up. Daring him to just score. You are going to have a hard time finding an open man like that with these defenders flying around
