Didn't see that coming...

Where is everyone? What an epic effort by Jokic today. Just an all time performance.

 

[Judd2Sewell]

There are not enough superlatives you can use for GOATkic. He's simply a phenomenon and an all-time great player.

If he's not B2B MVP then it's a sham. He's clearly leading in every advanced stat and doesn't get all the FT's that Embiid is gifted every night.

 

[Judd2Sewell]

From the other day. No one else on the planet can make that pass.

 

[Judd2Sewell]

Big Honey is the GOAT.

* all the clown haters like Nick Wrong and Kendrick Jerkins.

Barton and Morris

For

KCP and Ish Smith

I'm happy we moved on Barton, but I'm annoyed we moved Morris. Morris is a quality backup PG.

 

[mickelboy182]

I don't think we got much value in that trade, though KCP is a good fit. Morris on a good contract.

 

[Judd2Sewell]

Really not into the trade. Can someone please convince me that it was a good move?

 

[mickelboy182]

KCP improves the starting lineup and Morris gone gives Bones the keys.

It makes sense, just not necessarily capitalising on Monte's value.

True, Bones getting increased game time is a big plus.

Bruce Brown is a good get on a good deal.

Rams are his one true love. Maybe the Avalanche now too.

 

[Judd2Sewell]

WTF did we trade for Forbes? And now he's left after half a season.

Not much, Bol, an expiring and injured PJ and a future second.

And it's hardly like he has left, he has been replaced with KCP and Brown who are upgrades.

I don't mind the pickup of Brown at all.

I'm a little more sceptical of KCP though, hopefully we get the Wizards version and not the Lakers version.

How do you expect we will line-up this season?

Huh? If anything he was better as a Laker haha.

Murray
KCP
AG
MPJ
Jokic

Bones
Brown
Reed
Nnaji
Green

Would probably be my first choice rotation.

His last two years at the Lakers were definitely worse than his time at the Wizards

Strong disagree. Higher TS%, BPM and Net rating in those Laker years, while counting stats are tangibly similar.

He has been relatively consistent.

 

[mickelboy182]

Think I might get a little emotional tomorrow... Feels like we haven't had a real game since Murray went down.

Fingers crossed he, MPJ and everyone else get a good run at it this year.

 

[Blacky]

It’s a long shot

Very pumped though

 

[mickelboy182]

Confirmed emotional, just not for the reasons expected

 

[MadMaxx]

Jokic got an ultra rare Quadruple Double today..

15 Points
14 Assists
13 Rebounds

and
10 Turnovers

(I would still pick him in a hearbeat.. Amazing talent)

 

[Judd2Sewell]

GOATkic has been in rare form lately

Points / boards / assists / steals / blocks

13 / 13 / 13 / 2 / 0

40 / 27 / 10 / 2 / 0

25 / 11 / 8 / 4 / 0

43 / 14 / 8 / 5 / 1

[Judd2Sewell]

Joker up to his old tricks again. Truly a brilliant player that deserves every accolade.
