what is your point.

lol, tobias harris is as good as porter jr., the nuggets second best player rn, and ben simmons is in another stratosphere from porter. and then curry is better than pretty much any "third option" the nuggets have

ben simmons and curry are guards or at least simmons is a point forward, and even thybulle is good defensively. who is on the nuggets, austin rivers?

if Simmons is a guard then so is jokic. now the nuggets have an MVP guard. magic.

they aren’t losing because of guard play. well if you count jokic as a guard I guess so.

put embiid on the nuggets and they're up 2-0 imo. he'd be living at the line

obviously since he can play center defense which is sometimes valuable in the nba.

If Giannis could his hit drat free throws he'd have 21 points. Also for some reason he keeps trying to shoot 3s

I'd say maybe 1-1 but only because he's the best drat player in the league

If Denver had a guard who could bother Chris Paul's passing or at least force more than two turnovers across two games out of him, they wouldn't be so lit up by the rest of the Suns offence.

highest percentage of points by a duo in nba playoff history: 68 of 85 points from giannis and middleton and exactly 80%

Basically they need the career 42% three point shooters on the Nets to continue hitting only 25% of their shots to have a chance of winning four games.

Giannis feels like a solved problem for even the Nets defense. Has been for years now in terms of the postseason.

brook lopez should be hitting 3s and jrue holiday should be scoring against kyrie of all players. their offense is a mess of iso ball and just can't seem to do anything
