Nice double entendre

I think he’s got a case as the best offensive basketball player ever

The glaring weakness in Jokic's game is that he's mostly only a half-court threat, but the fast break is only a fraction of offense. He runs the break well, but that rarely happens. Everybody else on my list gives transition D fits.

In no specific order:

MJ
Lebron
Steph
Jokic

Maybe?
Shaq
Magic
Luka

Steph

It's like he saw this convo pre-game

Love that Silver has like 20 teams playing in a back to back after the NBA cup games yesterday. It’s hilarious.

How come the nba won’t push the season back a couple weeks and abandon back to backs???

Caruso led the NBA with 3.6 deflections per game last year. Dyson Daniels is averaging 7.7 this year

I get the money (to a degree, he doesn't need it), but at that age just go enjoy the time you have left with family.

I watched Daniels against Detroit last week and anytime he guarded Ivey, Ivey looked like he saw a ghost. He manhandled Cade. He forced like 7 turnovers by himself

This is legitimately some of the worst defense I’ve ever seen
