Nuggets have a historically bad offense whenever Jokic is off the floor. Just straight up incompetent in every way.

GfcaRDXWUAAykX8


:unimpressed:

If these cac stats had legitimacy and Denver was the worst offense without Jokic then they should have no way to have offensive performances they had against top 5 defenses like Grizzlies and Clippers :unimpressed:

3-4 without Jokac wit one of the hardest schedules possible only 1 bad team in NOLA.

Grizzlies, Grizzlies, Pelicans, Celtics, Clippers, Rockets, Warriors

Beat Grizzlies, Clippers and Warriors 3 of the top 10 teams in the league without him. Was tied 93-93 wit a healthy Celtics in the 4th quarter until Celtics went on a run to end the game. Go on and keep regurgitatin these cac stats and narratives you found online though nikka that these nikkas can't dribble or shoot a basketball when Jokac ain't on the floor like they a bunch of twitter posters :camby::umad:

AG 38. Combined wit MPJ for 60 total :wow: Rick Adelman son best kept secret in NBA. He ELITE Denver offense is mostly him.

Then why isn't he still a all star/MVP level player? What did he lose?

In his prime he was more athletic than 99.92% of players, there was only LeBron and 1 or 2 others you could argue more athletic in his prime. His shootin decline one of the weirdest things too.

Russ up to his MVP season was a 82% FT shooter.

From 2018-2025 he a 69% FT shooter and while his 3PT shootin hasn't changed much (31% to 30% in same time frames) he can't get that pullup middy off no more and his shootin mechanics or somethin just left him. I ain't ever seen some shyt like that it don't make sense. His playmakin still as good as ever, his defense been better in recent years wit a reduced offensive role he wasn't a consistent good defender in his prime.

Few things:

1. Russ had a true “jump” shot—his release point was at the peak of his jump. So naturally, when his athleticism declined, so would his shot. Multiple former and current players, scouts, and analysts pointed this out during his MVP years. However, he waited too long to try to correct it, and by then, it was too little, too late.


2. He has suffered multiple hand and knee injuries over the years, which have also contributed to his decline.

3. Had to completely change his free throw routine after the rule changes. Go look at his free throw routine when he first came in the league and compare it to now.

Is this you regurgitating cac stats:
+10 with him, -16 without him
109.7 defensive rating with KD on the floor for the season (as good as 8th ranked Warriors defense)
He's #1 in defensive field goal %
37.4 DFG% at rim, teams shooting 9% worse against him at the rim
-His Offensive Rating(44) is the lowest ever in a series for a player averaging >20 minutes
-His Net Rating was was -56
-His Game Score for the series was NEGATIVE(-0.6). That means, statistically, he was actually detrimental to his team
-His TOV%(28.0) was 5 times higher than his AST%(5.3)
-Memphis SG Tony Allen had a TRB% equal to Perkins for the series(10.3%)
See, this is the problem with you.

You post so much dumb shyt you can't keep up with it.

Here you are cherry-picking a game where the Warriors clearly phoned in their performance and are trying to use it as some reflection of the Nuggets without Jokic, in general. If they were this good, then they'd be able to survive whenever he's off the floor, but we all know that's clearly not the case. You think this team without Jokic would even make the play-in tournament? That they'd be better the Suns? Despite all the evidence to the contrary?

We just saw the Pacers rest Haliburton and Siakam, and they still beat a full-strength T'Wolves squad.

You see this shyt all the time in the league.

Your lame coward ass only shows up whenever you think the coast is clear and you can layer one of your dumbass agendas that holds no weight in reality.

Meanwhile Spo somehow got a Tyler Herro led Heat team at 20-17 record and 6 seed. Warriors got the best player of the 2 and a better deeper roster. No Jimmy drama missin most season either which should be affectin team. Switch coaches and shyt would be a lot different for both.

Not that it a surprise to nikkas payin attention we seen Spo somehow take a team wit Josh Richardson most games and minutes played to playoff wit a rotation of Dragic, Tyler Johnson, Ellington, James Johnson, Olynyk, Justice Winslow, Whiteside and Dion Waiters.

Spo learned Kerr again a week or so back. Best coach of his generation :manny:
Spo makin Tyler fukking Herro look like 2004 Peja Stokajovic is fukking insane brehs. 16pts on 100% shootin in 1st quarter :picard:

20-18 wit Jimmy missin most season fukkin up chemistry and 6 seed is just wild. Best coach of his generation by far no one can do more wit less and he did it wit talented teams that was post to win and dominate too
How's this agenda of yours going you lame ass fakkit?

:umad:
