This is EXACTLY the **** i'm talking about with the hype man smfh Marc Gasol (you know just a former Defensive player of the year) & Dirk Nowitski (Just one of the greatest scorers/shooters to ever play the game)... he's being compared to these guys because he had a HALF season of playing good basketball for a non playoff team. We just refuse to let talent grow w/o hyping it.

Have you looked at his stats this year? 17/11/4 on 50/50/90 and this is with a slow start to the season.

Word. Young Joc started off the season 3-13 at that.
Ty ain’t ever trying to recognize talent

what about 17/11/4 with BAD defense turns out to be a Dirk/Gasol Hybrid ..... if anything he's Marc Gasol - the defense

Popovich on new resting rule: "Frankly, it's a little bit cloudy... I'm just glad I was never one of those guys that rested people."

Read the article B
"Like mix of Marc Gasol and Dirk Nowitzki," Stojakovic says, citing Gasol's passing skills and Nowitzki's soft shooting touch.
His assists come off the dribble. "I don't remember many guys that can lead a break and find a guy at 6'11"," says Nuggets president of basketball operations Tim Connelly. "I think he's one of the best passers, period"—as in, at any position.
Seems pretty damn accurate to me

The Gasol comparison is because of the playmaking.
Not really fair to compare anyone to Dirk. But Jokic is a player, Greg.

A Dirk/Gasol hybrid would be putting up 25 and 12 with 50/40/90 splits while playing top 5 defense at his position. Basically the greatest bigman of all time

So given the context, we're still acting like we don't understand the comparison?

I don't understand it at all actually. When I see Jok I see a 2017 Arvydas Sabonis

No i for one don't..... Marc Gasol is a good passing big man with a soft touch..... Adding dirk who is known as one of the best shooters ever is pure gas. Saying that Jokic is one of the best passers in the league is also pure gas... Demarcus cousins is a big man who can run the break and make good passes & has a soft touch, Anthony davis also to a lesser extent.... it's dumb for you to use Dirk, Jokic isn't NEARLY on the level of dirk when it comes to shooting the ball.

I'm sure this question has probably been asked before but how many devices/people can be logged on to NBA LeaguePass at the same time? So many conflicting reports online but I wanted to know before I invested.

There's no way you watched Young Joc and came to the conclusion that's he not one of the best passers in the league.

I hope he returns to form but 2 ACL tears in the same knee makes me wary.

His shooting (efficiency) is closer to Dirk than Marc for one and the ONLY comparison to Marc was the passing, which is accurate. Just because other big men can pass doesn't mean that the comparison doesn't make sense. It's possible to compare certain skills. That's what context is for. It's not rocket science
