We haven't yet seen the play where Jokic gets an offensive board, misses a putback, gets his own board, misses another putback, gets his own board again, and then scores, but we will

Yeah, I should have considered that Miami's relative lack of height meant a lot of Denver's guys could be grabbing rebounds; Jokic doesn't need to be the guy trying to dominate the boards.

He's paying slightly passively to stay out of foul trouble; I bet he'll be more assertive next half.

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.
this is what would've happened if Magic Johnson started at centre instead of just game six

One important thing about these finals is that every time Murray makes a basket he contorts his face so he looks like a Fraggle antagonist

the best chance for the heat is for Udonis Haslem to check in and hit jokic in the knees with a folding chair.

Having 0 long wings is really not a formula for playoff success. Pretty surprised that problem didn't manifest itself more against Boston although I guess shooting 500% from three papers over a lot of weaknesses
