Tell Hakeem it’s smoke too @Gil Scott-Heroin

I’m day one Joker Gang, and I like to make fun of how angry he makes other stanbases, but I def thought Hakeem was out of pocket for that gratuitous shot at Jo. It’s not as if Jokic operates strictly out of the low post either. And damn, no love for your fellow late-blooming African brethren? Questioning Dream’s hoops IQ though…

Jokic at 93 percentile and Embiid at 86 percentile - both with the most post-ups and highest percentiles. KP comes it at a respectable 82 percentile; Giannis at 36 percentile is hilariously bad.

Think that comment legit bothered him because Hakeem/Kobe are why he started playing basketball.

Joel is right, the reason he's succeeding right now is because his touches are coming in the middle of the court which is the worst place to double at, unlike earlier in his career it was strictly low block and depending on entry passes
