Bam is just too small to consistently give Jokic a hard time. What makes him a great all around defender who can guard 1-5 also hinders him vs true BIGs as what he makes up with lateral quickness and close out speed he lacks in pure size. He’s good for a look as he is very good at fronting and denying the easy pass entry and that definitely frustrates Jokic along with physical defense but he’s just too big. Eventually he just shoots over Bam or does the up and under or just shoots dumb shit and it works becusse it’s not dumb shit when it’s Jokic. You gotta tip your hat and carry on not much else to do here.
