The Nuggets Never beating a 50+ win team in the Jokic Era, doesn’t get talked about enough, LeBron has beat 18, Curry is 15-4, Giannis 1-5.

The Clippers were a 50-win team in 2019-2020 that had COVID stoppage.

This is kind of a goofy stat. You can only beat whats in front of you.



The Jazz that the Nuggets beat in the 1st round that year won 61.1 percent of their 72 games that year ... which is the same win percentage as 50 out of 82.

Most people wrote off the Nuggets last season until they won. Most people ignore the fact they were contention level for years, except for health issues.

So the same people who ignored them as contenders until June of 2023, immediately crowned them as repeat champions for 2024. Repeats in the NBA are not easy, no need to shyt on Jokic for this.

If they continue to get dominated every game, it’ll absolutely look fraudulent. So will the multiple MVPs
how does this make sense, how are we retroactively devaluing finals that already took place?

Exactly. Nothing but clowns on here.

A chip is a chip.

Why leave it at 50? Why not 60? 70?

fukking clowns.

exactly, how arbitrary :mjlol: .

I think Utah won 50 the year prior and were on a high 50s pace the next year too—also a shortened season.

Main reason why this is happening is because folks are OD'ing on Jokic calling him GOAT candidate or greatest offensive player of all time. He's a great player in his own right, but greatest offensive player of all time?

We just witnessed Lebron and Steph era, but Jokic is a better offensive player than them? Man fukk all that.

He's looking like a WNBA player attempting layups now that he's got a guy who's as strong as him guarding him down low.
I agree with this bozo for once. :ehh:
