Let's be honest, people hating on Jokic has nothing to do about him playing in Denver. K Perkins said the quiet part out loud. He's a little to pale for the media to be as successful as he is. I completely disagree with Perk but i at least give Perkins respect for actually speaking the truth. If Jokic had a darker tan all these people in the media would be raving about how we're watching a historically great player

This nuggets and jokic reminds me of Duncan and the Spurs.... Every year everyone talked about Kobe, LeBron, etc, but San Antonio cruised through the West and Duncan got multiple rings... Till this day Duncan is STILL underrated to many people's all time lists. That's just what Jokic and this nuggets team (could) be... Just forever underrated, because Jokic isn't a flashy, loud mouthed, media frenzied, athlete. He's just a winner. He wins. That team wins. Just like that Spurs team did with Duncan for almost 2 decades

It's incredible how shallow is what passes as "basketball analysis" these days. For example, saying that if it was not for the crazy 8 points in 20 seconds moment the Wolves would have won: The Nuggets managed their final 3 or 4 possessions and were more concerned with running the clock than scoring to finish the game. That's something they do a lot - they rarely look to completely demolish the other team (for better or worse, and unless it's in a game they had something to prove, like game 3) - they have learned to play as well as needed to win the game, because they know a championship run is a marathon, and a 5 point win counts for the same as a 30 point one. Sometimes it comes back to bite them, like in the loss to the Spurs at the end of the season, the lone loss to the Lakers, or even the first game against Minny (the second game was an anomaly in more ways than one). But in the long run it has been proven to be a winning formula so far. And that has a lot to do with how Jokic plays, really - with him you seldomly see wasted motion, which is why he rarely dunks, again, unless he thinks he has something to show people. Why spend energy dunking the ball when he has the softest touch around the basket and a layup is worth the same 2 points? If it was a closer game, they'd have executed differently and the result more likely than not would have been the same. You gotta learn to go past the surface, folks, even more so if you wanna self-identify as "basketball analysts". Cheers!

It doesn't matter which league, team or player we'll ever have. Until media decides that Denver is just as "allowed" to be considered as important as any coastal city, then we'll always be spoken in less than respectful ways. It's all good though, we're all used it and will continue to love our teams and players and we'll put them on the level they deserve!

The narrative Jokic hated basketball needs to end. It's si tiring hearing this all the time when it's clearly not the case

"It’s Time to Start Treating the Nuggets Like the Defending Champs They Are." The NBA is, by not suspending Murray for his tantrum(s).

Jokic is currently the best player in the world, and it’s pretty clear now that ants the guy who will take that title from him in the next few years. That’s what makes this series so enjoyable

Sadly most if not all sports talk is nothing but takes. And everyone is trying to smash down harder than the patron before them. Leads to less facts and all opinions.

Yep. They either don't realize or don't want to say that the thing Jokic has an issue with is not basketball, it's the bullshit spewed on sports shows and all that surrounds it. I think he rightfully sees U.S. sports media as the dumpster fire it is....and that makes some of them hating him anymore.

I mean, I think a lot of people have been treating them like champs (they just happen to not be members of the media) It seems like everyone in print and on air got amnesia and didn't realize that you don't with a championship without having a bit of resiliency. Their entire starting five returned from a championship year - what were people missing?

Great show. Anthony Edwards shows he's willing to do something Jordan wasn't = say ignorant illogical things. He's ready to play the next day but not so much if it's a longer amount of time between games? That's LeBron-style excuses vs just being honest. Just being honest is a willingness to acknowledge his enemy's accomplishment. As much as I never (ever) wanted to see Jordan win back in the day, he was honest and respected his enemy's accomplishments - it seemed. Isaiah Thomas might say otherwise. Ants excuses show a fear of rejection which equals weakness. If he can overcome that then everyone around him gets better.

The moment I noticed the Huge difference in Down time between Games 2 and Games 3, I pretty much knew there was more then a good chance the T-Wolves wouldn't continue their Dominance. What I didn't expect is for them to Turn Tail and RUN, at Home. Plus please take away that Joke of a Award, Defensive Player of the Year.

The NBA media doesn't care about small markets unless they're the absolute best team in the league or have a super star. Unless they have that, they will get next to no attention.

Let’s be honest Denver played like crap the first two games and the Wolf’s played like a complete team. The last two games AE is the only one who has shown up for the Wolfs. If Minnesota plays as a team they have a very good chance of winning this. That is a big what if though.
