bryant would have fouled for an and-1

that tracks from a Denver fan i guess

denver is a top 10 defense recently. better than philly

refs do not call (or almost always ) so not call fouls if you have your hands straight up and jump

they may call toh a couple times but they won’t foul tou out

anyway refs aren’t going to foul out jokic

he has league protection but yet he still won’t play defense (Becuase he’s a stiff )

maybe if embiid copied jokic's style they'd have a defense as good as denver's

as an 8-14 minute backup sure. i've never been opposed to getting a better backup center than deandre jordan/zeke nnaji. not the highest priority but it'll affect a few minutes a game in the playoffs. good trade

Philadelphia is 6th in d rating

Denver is not close to that

no idea what you are talking about

you think they won’t start Bryant ?? I had not considered that. pretty ballsy for them to go into the western conference playoffs with no center in the starting line up after the past two years of debacles

denver started out horrible on defense and turned it around. they've been an elite defense this calendar year (and a bit before)

3rd worst defence to 14th worst just means AD and lebron are gonna have an amazing upset and jokic ‘needs more help’ by the time he’s doing his MVP speech

Lebron and Ad (if healthy ) would destroy Denver

Denver could beat Dallas or Sacramento

not sure about anyone else (assuming everyone is healthy )

Year after year, Jokic performs better in the playoffs than he did in the regular season

I think we need to make this more real world and get out of the nba propaganda simulacrums

you are the ymca for pick up and you see two 6’10” guys: A and B. player A is running and jumping and has his arms up and dunks all the time

Player B walks down the court, does not jump or raise his hands, cannot dunk, and may have developmental abnormalities

in all other respects they are similar

In this context, I ask you to predict who would
be better at center defense

I would hope you say player A

I changed my mind
I forgot Dallas got kyrie so there is no way Denver can beat Dallas - or if they did it would an upset

so Denver better hope for that matchup with their clone, Sacramento
