  1. Lol, someoneone else said this. Jokic literally downloaded Wemby's defense in about 20 minutes. After that, he was unarguable. It was like the matrix programs that Neo learns.

  2. If Daron wouldn't have fouled on the 3 pt shot Spurs wouldnhave won. Daron needs better handles. He was the reason for our loss.

  3. Spurs vs Nuggets was an AWESOME showdown to see who the runner up for MVP is, and to see who’s going to lose to OKC in the WCF 😊

  4. Love Castle, Big Fan of Fox who wasn’t great but can’t argue with his shots. But Dylan needed to be in the game. Unstoppable and best point of the three.

  5. Look like Spurs and Denver will meet before one of them meets OKC. Denver will have the 3rd spot. LA will have 4th seed.

  6. 39:54 Jason, did you really just say Jokic and Steph are the best offensive players ever when there’s this other guy who won 10 straight scoring titles excluding the 17 game season he played after baseball? Seriously? Steph!?

  7. Ok Jokic was impressive but Wemby and the Spurs are fast learners so I guess they will adjust defensively. The other story of the game is the missed open 3s by the Spurs and just lost by 2 points

  8. It was the best Non-Thunder game of the season. On a list of the Top 10 games of the year, OKC is on at least 6 of those.

  9. the Spurs and Nuggets were so good that Adam and Jason spent over 50 minutes talking about one game šŸ˜‚ that’s awesome

  10. Spurs v nuggets best regular game so far this season. Played at play off intensity with two superstars going toe to toe. Was a brilliant watch.

  11. seeing commentators paid by nba participate in mental gymnastics while trying to be aligned with the official narrative is my new favorite thing… 'yes, he has the best stats, but I am just not feeling it you know from this man who rarely shows emotion'

  12. Jokic had a "good month" and a month off. His 'good month" was him coming off an injury. He's been great since March.

    He was on fire October-December 31

  13. Let’s stop kidding ourselves though. Jokic is still the best player in the world. The only reason we are hearing this conversation is because 1) he got injured this year and it slowed him down long enough 2) The media has decided they need a ā€œsexierā€ superstar, and 3) we are numbed by his numbers. It’s not just his gaudy numbers, it’s his ability to outsmart and solve every player he faces and do it with surgical efficiency. I’m not a super fan, I just know greatness when I see it.

  14. Jokic scored on wemby
    1 half
    Post left hand
    Post after block
    Right elbow floater
    2 half
    Mid range
    Mid range
    Mid range
    3 points
    Floater after locking wemby behind
    Sombor shuffle
    Floater the end

    10 field goals over wemby, not 6

  15. This episode feels a bit self indulgent. If San Antonio had won would we have gotten this episode? This podcast is for a national audience no? Also, it seems Denver just won at the end and it could have gotten either way. I don’t mind a 15 min segment but wow spending an hour on your home team? So if Lakers and Nuggets are both good this is a Western conference only show?
