All these commentators, using Ja Morant’s situation to get off their own “hood tales” is funny to me.

ramona picked warriors last series![]()
Interesting split. MoMo and McMenamins votes are also biased and worthless. The basketball intelligentsia loves the Nuggets in this series
Def won’t get strapped but the lakers will be able to put a hella stop to the majority of his scoringJokic is not going to score like he did against Phoenix in this series - let’s just get that out of the way. The Lakers are just way better defensively as a team than the Suns. Doesn’t mean necessarily he’s getting locked up though.
Part of what makes Jokic so good is that he can be selective about his own offense and dominate a game through facilitating. Think he’s too smart to try to win a one-on-one battle against AD.
Same thing I was thinking. I think we have more depth but it’s pretty evenDoes Denver have some glaring advantage that I'm not seeing? Looks like two evenly matched teams to me

Think Jokic tires out because of this and commanding the offense. Murray is gonna have to ball out like crazy and a role player will have to excel.interesting to see how Denver handles lakers putting jokic in PNRs.
Aaron Gordon is gonna have to have a huge series on offense and defense. He is a great cutter off Jokic but if I’m the Lakers I try to force him into jumpersThink Jokic tires out because of this and commanding the offense.

With that said I’m doubling this man everytime he touches the ball. Get the ball out his hands and make everyone else beat you. I could even see them putting AD on AG like I said earlier. This would allow AD to roam and hang out in the paint, preventing a lot of the cutting and easy buckets the nuggets get off jokic doubles. This would also deter Jokic from wanting to drive if he knows AD is there waiting to help.
What bigs has AD played against so far in the playoffs ?Ppl think Jokic is abt to dominate AD in the post. Yeah no
Only reason the nugs were so successful against the suns, us cause one KD washed a hell and two cause they don’t have a dominate big man. AD will have at least 25 tonight![]()
Bron is guarding AD in this scenario and you’re doubling with Rui/vando/ leaving one of their 3 shooters open?
Skipping ahead a bit here, but do you think the media would award AD finals mvp over bron?It's funny the media made the last series to be about Bron-Steph when it was a AD series all along.
This series, we are getting a lot of AD-Jokic talk (deservingly so). I think they more or less cancel each other out. So the swing factors to me will be the Laker guards and Jamal Murray.
