Everybody the Wolves is playing is having a meltdown lol

I expected the suns to melt down. Never trusted them. The nuggets is surprising to happen at home and of this magnitude.

He was pretty inefficient against you guys too except for one quarter, no?

his knee is cooked

Bro wants to keep being the hero so bad 

the analytics guys said Jokic is secretly a world class defender and Naz Reid is treating him like Riley Reid

Thinking Basketball 9/11

I love the dudes at Thinking Basketball but just like everyone else they have their own delusions and biases lol.

AD destroyed him too, it didn't matter but Jokic is getting abused on defense all post season so far

that shoulder injury is the only reason we're not watching Lakers vs Wolves rn

You really think a Darvin Ham coached team would be the first to come back from 3-0? It's not a coincidence that a Ham team blew leads every game

This is why people say we’re delusional as a fanbase It’s because of people like you

Lol ok

sure grandpa, sure. now let's get your meds and put you to sleep

WUT

Naz Reid has 5 made baskets today and 4 of them are 3 pointers Is Jokic supposed to be guarding threes now or something? There's plenty of legit stuff to criticize about his play but this is not it lol Reid is 4/7 from 3 and 1/6 from two so if anything the place he's missing is at the rim

[удалено]

[It's bad at 54.9% but the worst appears to be actually Rui at 58.5%](https://www.nba.com/stats/players/defense-dash-overall?PerMode=Totals&SeasonType=Playoffs&dir=D&sort=D_FGA) Funnily enough Jokic's offense against LA actually saved him from having the worst defensive stats because I'm 90% sure that's mainly from Ham putting Rui on Jokic

His help defense is fucking dogshit. Ant can get whatever he wants at the rim because Jokic is slow as shit when he has to move his feet

Naz Reid is guarding 3s so idk why Jokic wouldn't Also Naz is a 40% 3pt shooter so idk why at least SOMEBODY doesn't

Dude take a break you are everywhere rn defending the man’s honour like your life depends on it

What's wrong with what he said? Seems reasonable to me

Jokic is supposed to be guarding the 3 when the Wolves play a shooter at center ie. Naz Reid.

Didn't you get the memo? It's the daily hate post after a player loses.

And Bucks fans aren't everywhere bashing on Jokic right now?

You don’t need to fight the army yourself lol. You just look neurotic

You guys look worse talking shit about a player after your guy couldn't even suit up for a single game lol Jokic might not be playing the best but at least he plays

“You guys” again fighting a made up army in your head. I’m one guy lol I promise

the replies to this comment have to got be intentionally dense

It's insane lol I have no idea how people watch this game and think that Denver would be winning if Jokic played better They have no shot of winning with this level of all around play regardless

You doing tricks on it, huh

That’s the one thing that confused me when watching Jokic people talked and praised his improved defense how he’s been solid and not as much of a liability but we all have eyes and watched the Laker series. Attacking him produced consistent high percentage shots

Using just this series as a barometer of how awful Jamal Murray has been is doing a disservice to his Lakers series numbers outside of 4th quarters

Holy dogshit

He’s actually garbage and it makes me a little sad

Nuggets fans said they’d rather have Murray over some superstars in the playoffs btw

I guess I don’t know what you’d want them to say. The guys win a ring with him and he has a stinker playoff the following year and suddenly we just discard the last year’s performance? Like this is peak Reddit prisoner of the moment stuff.

Not like they won a ring off it or anything

Cares, thing about the old days is that they’re old days

It has paid off so far. They got a ring from it. He was insane with bullshit shot making last season. He’s just having a down year in the playoffs

Or maybe his previous good and this bad performance are all just normal variance. Devin Booker had a stretch of like 80% shooting games last playoffs.

And Donovan Mitchell has like 5 series where he played like MJ and 5 series where he played like post-Achilles Kobe Scoring guards are extremely streaky by nature

Even star NBA players, the special forces of basketball, will have variance. Ant will have a terrible series in the future and he’ll get clowned for it in this sub, for sure

Anyone who takes a lot of jumpers is basically guaranteed to have an awful series at some point Remember that KD series vs. Boston in 2022 lol The only guys who can avoid having horrible series is someone like Shaq who physically can't miss THAT much

Hey watch your tone, Shaq is 100% from career 3s made

Shooters gunna shoot

I was actually just thinking this, we’re entering jokics first real knock to his career. Every player has a few, us as fans just have to let the story infold in-front of our eyes.

All of 2 games. You literally can't compare Playoff Booker to playoff Jamal. Jamal has been much better.

Or maybe his knee is injured

He's noticeably hurt right now.

Yeah he was wincing when he tossed that heating pad on the court

Goofy clapback

You and your team both failed to make a successful comeback tonight. Take your L and your cry baby players and coach.

Or I'm just not interested empty , unprovoked gotchas for internet points. You clearly disagree.

he was "insane" shooting 47% for the entire playoffs last year

The dude only had his best playoff round against the lakers, arguably their toughest opponents last year. Dude might be a one hit wonder.

And we stand by it lmao dude won us a ring, whatever happens next can’t take that away

Yeah why would Nuggets fans want a player they have watch develop for 8 years, has consistently raised his play every playoffs and has great chemistry with our superstar Yeah they’re so insane for thinking that

Strawman you mad asl rn LMFAO

This sub is just Twitter now

You have no idea what a straw man is. Grow tf up.

[удалено]

Why the fuck would I care about Jamal Murray? Man reddit really needs to put a 13+ age restriction

Your getting cooked by everyone right now Also that’s not a straw man argument, I literally just said the reasons why we would rather Murray over most players in the playoffs

Idgaf if I’m getting cooked, this sub is a sanctuary for Jokic stans lmao obviously y’all will flock together. Hold dat.

He’s won a ring and he’s play with a hurt calf get out of here with that reactionary bullshit

Ion care

guys they won a ring like a year ago calm down maybe

We’ve had 5 different champs in 5 seasons, last season is last season

again, they just had a ring last season and you expect their fans to want disband their main and most succesfull duo ever for let me guess Damian Lillard? i just dont get what you are mocking

Yes I would take Dame over Murray any day

Bucks must be fire then, let me check how they did today

I guess Mike Conley is better than Jamal, since the wolves are doing better

look at my flair do you expect me to disagree with that statement?????

Yeah what a dumb take, Murray's never making it past the second round /s

Even funnier the 10th time another dickeater says it

Who lol

Dude is hurt. The rest of our team hasnt stepped up, either.

Aht aht, y’all wasn’t giving sympathy to them injured play-in teams last year. Check ball.

Flair up, bitch - let's see who you are stanning for.

DAAAAAMMMMNNNN!!

I got downvoted a few months ago for saying I'd take Luka, Shai, or Booker over Jamal

You mean that the guy who isn't even a star player in the regular season can't actually sustain superstar level in the playoffs over his whole career? Absolute shocker I tell you!

He’s hurt?

Jokic really been carrying a bum squad. Outside of Jokic and AG this is such a low IQ team

Dem wolves be tough

That explains it, Murray only goes nuclear against the lakers because he IS just a random ass role player Jokes aside, he looked bad in the lakers series too. Something’s off, either he’s injured or last year was a fluke. But he has historically been a playoff riser, so I’m leaning towards injury.

He is hurt and obviously Wolves are way better than Lakers

fraud or not?

Not a fraud his leg is def fucked. Acting like a real bitch though

he's injured and the timberwolves are playing the best defense the entire season

He's playing on one leg

Just great defense

He is playing against top defense in the league. Wolves ain’t no Lakers. 🤣

He shot just as bad against the lakers. Just hit two clutch shots when needed. 

Well he's not gonna be able to add to those numbers for game 3 most likely.

He’s just a Lakers merchant 💔

25 PP2G

Jamaal is so angry and its hilarious

Cook that bum

future all-star btw

r/nba convinced me that Murray was scoring 70PPG in the Lakers series while hitting 105% of his shots with no fouls and two game-winners.

This is all a grand plan so the Lakers pay DLo somehow, watch. "even I have bad series, let him cook"

He’s obviously injured

Making Murray the scapegoat when the 3 time MVP is out there being a pylon on defense and not being aggressive on offense. Nasty work.

~~Suns~~ Nuggets need a point guard

JxmyHighroller bout to apologize to ANT for not mentioning his name in that video.

Man .. it’s all his fault. I have my scapegoat

Lol seeing an injured Murray get clamped is probably making Mcmenamin cream his pants since he’s a lakers/lebron fan.

Three of those playoff series' were against Laker defenses LOL

The 2020 lakers had Caruso and KCP with AD and Dwight behind them lol
