Jokic is a liability defensively. If Lebron didn’t have a torn ligament in his foot, and if the Lakers hadn’t been playing must win games for 3 straight months to end the season just to make the playoffs, that would have been extremely evident in the most competitive sweep.

Factor in the ridiculous shot making that the Nuggets experienced in that series, it could have been a sweep the other way. Pretty crazy when you think about it rationally.

He doesn’t need to respond to his critics. Being NBA finals MVP pretty much does the talking for him. Winning always takes care of the narrative.

The question truly is why would anyone criticize and hate Joker as a player considering…everything. Talk about not truly being a fan of basketball.
