      You clearly don’t watch Nuggets basketball AG is one of their best defenders able to guard up to 3 or 4 positions on the court.
      Offensively he’s a mismatch in the post for most teams when he’s playing bully ball with joker.
      Also he’s been dealing with a shoulder issue for most of the season which he’s finally got healed.
      And that has affected his outside shot.

    To me, watching the current Nuggest play gives me the same feeling as when the Warriors sort of busted in on the scene and dominated the NBA. It's not as flashy. But the team chemistry, the ball movement, along with moving off the ball. They just completely complement each other. If one is injured, sitting out, or not having a good night, the other players can so effortlessly cover up for it. Jokic being the offensive leader, while also being extremely selfless and being able to dominate the game in so many ways, at an elite level, makes it hard to gameplan for and stop. But as with the Warriors back then, I feel like as long as they have this current roster, and they're healthy, there is no legitimate reason not to have them as favorites.
    I know we are in the LeBron, player empowerment era. Where superstars are always looking for the next superstar to team up with, and when it works it works. But often recently we have realized that chemistry is more important than just throwing random superstars together. That Nuggets roster has been through so much together, depends on each other equally, and has a chemistry no other team comes close to. That level of trust and mutual respect puts them above any other team. They all feel a part of it. If someone gets open, they will get the ball. And having players who complement each other, have no ego, and all out in maximum effort on every play, it would be wild not to have them as the favorites. All in all, they make team basketball really fun to watch. And to me, good team ball will always be more fun than a couple superstars playing iso, while everyone else stands around the 3-point line. lol
    Great video, as always. I hope you and anyone who happens to read this have a wonderful and positive day/night!

    two things, i think you should clarify that the reason the nuggets dont have the markers of a historically great team is because they arent a damn superteam like boston is now, or the clippers are now, or the 2017 warriors, or 2012 miami heat, or any of those teams, they are similar to the spurs during their dynasty but even more so cause they only have one all star in jokic who is also an all time great, they play the right way and have an inevitably great offensive player as their number one guy. also the celtics play in a much much weaker conference.

    Nice vids you're making - your knowledge of basketball is elite. Keep it up... You're right - it's very hard to face the Nuggets in any given day - they are one of the best offensive and defensive teams ever; and I was a fan way before they won the championship... As for Boston, the big question is that their best players (Tatum, Brown, etc.) choke on the play-offs - which is the decisive part of the NBA...

    Jokic is the definition of work smarter and not harder. The reason he doesn’t get the recognition is similar to how Tim Duncan’s career when where he is not the flashiest or the most exciting player to watch(depending on what you want to see) and the fact that he isn’t American. I do not think in all my years of watching basketball I’ve never seen any player nba or not be able to consistently make a jumper behind his head like him lol

    While all other Nuggets players have ups and downs, Jokic is the only constant. Except in games where few players are on fire, then he doesn't take shots, he just feeds them or clearing the path for them to shine. Just check the games where he is under 20+ points and you will see that in those games Murray, MPJ, AG and others are in double figures, specially the first 3 are around 20+

    They've created a culture were to all do everything for one another and their star player knows himself and is not defined by others aka the media. The most important thing is winning and it does not matter who gets the credit. If there is a play and it works, they'll run it, even if Jokic is out there as a decoy.
    Also, this idea of past centers dealing with Jokic is based on emotional analysis. We've seen centers who can bully, Jokic will just take them in space. If they drop, three bomb. Other than Hakeem or Bill Russell who can really adjust to everything he brings on the table. Kevin Garnett said it best, with him you have to constantly switch up coverages because he adjusts well to what you do and runs a 125+ offense. Against a Shaq he will just push the pace which will reduce his minutes in a game since Shaq has to carry a 325lb body and that will definitely reduce the others team's efficiency on offense. Any offense with Shaq on the floor can be outclassed or match.
    We are watching an all-time great here and it is good to see like all the past great were.

    Nuggets don't dominate because when Jokic sits they are a -10.4 (weak bench). Denver Goal is to keep the game close until the 7 to 8 minute mark of 4th. quarter when Jokic checks in and just out executes teams on both ends of the floor down the stretch to get a win.

I mean, he'll have an amazing triple double and seemingly had the ball in his for all of about 2 minutes the entire game. It doesn't make sense and I really don't think we've seen a game like his before.

    Jokic is about as good on defense as giannis is on offense. A glaring weakness for both (giannis perimiter shooting and jokic perimeter defense), yet they make up for it in other places.
    Jokic is an absolute elite defensive rebounder and has been the best in the NBA over the last 4 years. He also is top 10 in the league for both steals and deflections over the past 4 years, which are better than blocks. He also has the best defensive IQ, not named draymond. He's a very good defender, albeit in a unique way.

    Size matters. And when you’re big and skilled in today’s nba you win. Jokic has size and skill and with the lack of skilled dominant big men he literally has no competition. And he plays like a big dominant center punishing smaller players when they attempt to play defense on him. If Denver is healthy, I don’t see anyone beating them in the playoffs. They can do everything and do it well.
