That explains alot..

 

[B Sox]

He’s one of the best passers to EVER play

Saying he’s boring is goofy as hell. Just mad he smoked the Lakers.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Jokic doesn’t hunt for fouls either

Yes he may flop from time to time but he isn’t relying on foul baiting like others

 

[dacomeup]

Great great hire for the wiz. That kid’s good.

Dude like 40 something years old

 

[OrangeBlueGarden]

Where the hell you been

I'm just saying 3 in a row ain't that far away

 

[witnesskb24]

I'm 5'8 208lbs. How can I imagine being 7 ft tall weighing over 300lbs and have the passing ability of a point guard the physical ability to bang with centers and the shooting touch of a 2 guard.

I'm going to watch the finals anyway. If I sat through nets Lakers I will pretty much watch any finals.

Jokic won't bring in the casual fan because there's no relatability factor. If people turned in to watch the Spurs vs pistons finals I don't see why they wouldn't watch this finals.

But you can watch Lebron and imagine you have that athletic ability? Watch Shaq and pretend you can be him? Cmon

 

[Rootin4EverybodyBlack]

Calling the best passer in the league boring is wild. Not to mention he can still drop 30+ without really trying.

Y’all just don’t like basketball forreal.

Watching a fat boy running point should actually be inspiring in this case

What makes Jokic the “best passer in the league “?

 

[dacomeup]

What makes Jokic the “best passer in the league “?

Observable reality?

 

[WASHED KING]

Outside of his passing there is nothing visually appealing about Jokic's game.

I'm a generational hater though.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

It's barely light out and very dark in here

You’re on the internet talking basketball and I ask a basketball question and thats your answer?

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Wait so all this back and forth about Jokic is because someone posted a clip of Skip and Shannon? Or was it the Gilbert arenas one? Yall are some sick individuals

 

[Rootin4EverybodyBlack]

What makes Jokic the “best passer in the league “?

His ability to find open teammates from anywhere on the floor. Low Post, high post, 3pt line, halfcourt

I mean if he’s not the best, then who’s better?

 

[antidope]

I hate being this guy but... You gotta just watch the games. Good passing is a lot of eye test.

Even the passes that don't end up in highlight reels are impressive. Passing isn't always results based compared to things like scoring. Lot of nuance involved.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Nah, it's more so folks coming in and dropping the "eh, nobody going to watch this Finals" like that's supposed to hold meaning

Then it evolved into theories as to why Jokic is not pleasant to observe. One of which included not being able to imagine being 7 foot and 300 lbs

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

His ability to find open teammates from anywhere on the floor. Low Post, high post, 3pt line, halfcourt

There's Trae, Luka, Hali.. old guard in Harden, LeBron and CP

Going Luka or Jokic since the old guard getting old

Nobody would be saying he’s the best passer in the game if Denver was the 6th seed and got bounced in the second round

Westbrook averaged 10+ assist a game for consecutive seasons if I’m not mistaken, and he was never considered the best passer in the game and thats primarily because his team wasn’t winning

I’ve watched Jokic in the playoffs and I haven’t seen anything spectacular about his passing ability

If yall are so high on Jokics passing ability then post a vid of some of his best passes

Do yall not understand what it means to be considered the best PASSER in the NBA?
