Shai had 24 potential assists last night to 8 real assists 🕊️ For context his average is about 13 potential assists to 7 real assists.

Jokic this week: 23 PTS | 21 REB | 19 AST 23 PTS | 17 REB | 17 AST 22 PTS | 14 REB | 14 AST 2K numbers.

Luka had 43/7/6 last night and his MVP odds went DOWN this morning I don’t even know what to say 😂

Je me réveille, je vois que Jokic a fait 19 PASSES DECISIVES pour UNE SEULE BALLE PERDUE. Alors je les regarde... Sérieux faut que la NBA arrête de se foutre de la gueule du monde sur le comptage des passes décisives. Pour la NBA, ces actions sont des passes décisives.

To the casual eye, you will see this box score and think, “Wow, this man had an all time great game!” But no? That’s not what actually transpired. First things first, he shot 42% from the field and 20% from 3, a horrendous scoring night. Secondly, you have to ask yourself how did he get so many assists. I will tell you. Several simple DHO’s to Jamal Murray who had 53 POINTS, and he FORCED passes to his teammates to statpad. In the 4Q, a female Denver Nuggets commentator stated that Jokic didn’t want to shoot the wide open floater, instead, he wanted to pass and find a teammate. This is shameless stat padding from a person who values numbers over winning. Thirdly, you see he had 21 rebounds. You must wow, that’s great! But how many were defensive? That’s right, 21! 21 defensive rebounds. Now you had to ask yourself how is this possible. I will tell you. Nikola Jokic does not play ANY defense at all. He does not contest shots (this is why they nearly lost to a tanking team) and stays under the rim PRAYING the opponents miss their shots so he can grab the rebound WHICH ARE ALMOST ALWAYS UNCONTESTED. So in conclusion, he had a horrendous shooting night, forced passes and made his teammates shoot to get him assists, went back into his non shooting gimmick, and stat padded uncontested rebounds. This is why we watch basketball with our eyes, and not box scores or mathematic equations.

Who's the best west team out of this group?

Better WR Duo… Ja’Marr Chase & Tee Higgins OR Puka Nacua & Davante Adams?
