I'm an OKC fan and love Shai, but you are insufferable.

They’re shooting 54% from 3. Just tip your hat.

Joking finishes at 35/18/8. Typical.

Much different game when his shot isn't cooked from an injury.

Give me a series of these two in the WCF.

That was Jokic’s 5th game this season with at least 35 points, 18 rebounds, and 8 assists.

Since the 1982-83 season, no other player in the league has more than 2 such games — IN THEIR CAREERS.

It's still very clear that Jokic is the best player in the league.

Shai will get a voter fatigue MVP this year. Might as well put an asterisk by it.

Sometimes you just have to take the loss. OKC loses 2 games per month on avg. Denver got hot and that was that.

Good game by Jokic. I still say their coach overplays starters and it hurts in playoff's (same as NYK HC). Jokic and 3 others had 39/39/38/35 minutes. OKC top 4 had 36/34/29/28 and 1 of those was bench player. Those minutes catch up in playoffs

LOL, its likely many posters in this thread have a blowup pic of Jokic on their bedroom ceiling.

He is a great runner up this year, that I’ll give him.

One thing I’ve noticed, guys on this board who like Shai are Thunder fans. The guys who like Jokic don’t even watch basketball and they hate the NBA.

It's not just the gaudy stats, it's also the fact that he got 35 points on only 20 shots (15/20 from the field) while being the primary ball distributor. It puts so much pressure on the defense when it's almost certain that he's going to score.

Yall busy talking about Joker and not realizing that Westbrook, Peyton Washington, and Jalen Pickett were 9 for 12 from behind the line.

That’s your game. Shooting anomaly of all shooting anomalies.

Jokic most assists in NBA since 2017…

Now that’s impressive…

Eh, both games were basically tied heading into the 4th quarter.

In the first game the Nuggets gave up a ton of open 3 attempts and OKC went 6/9 and blew the game open.

In the second game the Thunder gave up a ton of open 3 attempts and Denver went 7/8 and blew the game open.

I guess you can argue it's more of an anomaly for Denver's shooters, but those guys have been hitting wide open practice shots like the ones they were given at a pretty high clip. They just rained 3s on the same types of shots against the Suns a few nights ago.
