    Prime and before his shoulder injury Chris Webber was an absolute beast, maybe the best player in the league IMO but Jokic is already better which is really scary because hopefully he has many years to come in the NBA.

      Stop it he’s not better already don’t be foolish ✋?

      +Every Monday stat wise compare Jokic with Webbers best season. I know stats are inflated nowadays due to the rule changes but still, the way Jokic is completely in control of the game on the offensive end is something Webber could only do in spurts.

      +Red_Octagon #1 I’m a huge Webber fan but no way was he the best player in the league during any stage of his career. don’t think he was ever better than Shaq or Duncan); #2 It’s tough to compare stats today with Webber’s time, as you said. Remember that despite Webber’s gifts as a passer and playmaker, durnig the late 90s and early 2000s bigs weren’t really allowed to handle the ball. I think the fact Webber was able to average 4-5 assists per game at the time despite the (relative) lack of 3 point shooting and lack of ball handling is extremely impressive however. Can’t put Jokic above him yet despite the stats because of the rule changes and flow of the game, but if he has more longevity than Webber I DO see him surpassing Webber

    Webber was the most overrated choke artist ever especially in the playoffs. Jokic is already handily better.

      He was not playoff player at all. Saw every game of kings,generation of losers.

    C Webb was the best passing big man I ever saw until Nikola Jokic came around

      yes definitely Cwebb.

    I would like to see Rondo on more often. He really has a great basketball mind and gives valuable input every time he speaks.

      Nicholas Courier he know the game too well

      But he’s a future HOF, champion and finals MVP and a multimillionaire.

    This Nuggets team needs a really good Power Forward in order for them to be successful. Paul Millsap really complimented them well. With these lineup they can be a force in the WC for years. But they need a steady PF that will compliment Jovic. Duncan and Robinson of this gen! ?

      Still got Michael porter jr. , his injury doesn’t effect his future, he’ll be ready next year

  7. Jeyaram lol

    May 10, 2019 at 8:54 am

    Jamal should have been allstar they should have reward them with a 2nd allstar who were 2nd in the west warriors had 3 the thunder who are 6 had 2 Raptors bucks and 76ers all had 2 Jamal deserved to make it

    • Miguel Torre

      May 11, 2019 at 4:58 am

      18 points isnt an allstar bro

    • Jeyaram lol

      May 11, 2019 at 6:40 am

      Miguel Torre mike Conley averaged 15 in the grit and grid. Error while being like the 4th 5th and people say he should be an allstar hell nah if they are 4th and 5th they should get one but sometimes they get Zbo and Marc in Jamal absolutely deserves it but he will make it next year

    • Miguel Torre

      May 11, 2019 at 6:48 am

      +Jeyaram lol deserve maybe but voting is based on the media, players and fan votes. Its mostly a popularity contest in a nutshell

    Jason Williams was a far more exciting better fit for Sacramento than Bibby. Hated the day they traded J Will I was crushed. Always felt Webber had him ousted and never forgave him.

      Kieran Law saddest day of my life

    • Ab B

      May 10, 2019 at 1:41 pm

      He was a fan favorite but the Kings were much more successful with Bibby. Also Bibby had some huge clutch moments in the playoffs

    Hey, you guys, names on Nurkic’s T-shirt are names of well-known muslim killers in last war in Bosnia and Herzegovina, 1992-1995. They killed so many christians in that 4 years, mostly Serbs. You think that it’s right to allow him to wear something like that? Everyone in Balkan knows that Nurkic is extreme muslim nacionalist. You owe an apology for that. It’s shame for your club. No politics in sport.

    It was fun to watch jokic do those fancy passes last season already even they were losing many games back then. They really have evolved (not just simply improved).

    So they aren’t gonna go to the finals? Which is expected, Rockets gonna be cooking them in wcf

    Murray is a score not a consistent and effective score, but an score

    We’re going to a game 7! In an email sent to Denver Nuggets fans, the team had already started selling tickets for the Western Conference Finals. Despite the fact that they were playing the Portland Trail Blazers in the Western Conference Semifinals. Thats a RIP.

  18. Smirky Whitemale

    May 10, 2019 at 10:10 pm

    Thats a great breakdown. Jokers incredible hes gonna change the game like Disco Dirk.

    Rondo would be terrific coach

  20. Rhellz

    May 11, 2019 at 6:00 am

    Does anyone else think Jokic is similar to prime Pau Gasol

  21. Max Twarogowski

    slow down rondo damn

  22. Bann Taylor

    They remind me a little bit of Duncan and Parker, because Duncan could really pass it, and Parker could really score it !

  23. Poet Pie

    Tony Parker and Pau Gasol
