But unequivocally, that's exactly what you did with your thread title. You don't seem to enjoy the result of doing so and being made to look foolish as a result, but that's objectively what you actually did.

Unlike some fans I can call out my favorite player when they played bad.


But that isn't what you did. You took a stance and made a fairly specific, strong statement, based on two games.

Based on his play which was not up to the standards of best player of his generation. The last two he played like it and that’s why we are tied in the series. But the title of thread was indeed done for other purposes which if you read above you know.

He played below his insane GOAT-level standards.

Now, I'm not a zoomer so all this "he him" nonsense is arcane to me but I've managed to determine it means the player is elite and capable of carrying a team to huge wins and clutch shots.

Your thread title is "Jokic is not him" that would lead a simple man like myself to believe you think Jokic is not the aforementioned glowing positives. I take umbrage with that idiocy.

If you did not mean to suggest that - despite your thread title stating exactly that, then you should beg forgiveness for titling your thread an obvious falsehood.

Why do you think I created the title? Look what I posted in the actual thread.



Why did you create that title?

Beg forgiveness and maybe, just maybe it will be bestowed upon you.

This is the worst series I seen him play. He seems like he doesn’t care. He has no drive. Not aggressive at all on both ends of the floor. He has poor body language.


Here's your quote. Of course that isn't wrong. Anyone could see that. So what was the point of this thread and title.

What's funny and sad is you say I'm waiting for a chance to diminish him at any opportunity I get. What do you think this thread, that you created is haha? This is truly remarkable, that your on some I believed in him all along **** today after you did this a week ago. You bailed at the first sign of trouble, and are embarrassed about it. I get it!

The point of the title is to expose the posters who I knew would post in this thread. Just look at some of the posts in this thread. Easy work

:lol:

Sure. Even Tsherkin is agreeing with me on this, which is a rare occurrence. This is sad, just let it go.

Jokic with 7 mins left in G5: 37 points (14-18, 1-2 from 3, 8-9 FTs), 12 assists, 6 rebounds, and 0 turnovers

The question isn't "is he the best player in the league?", the question to ask now is "how many guys have actually peaked higher than Jokic?" because this dude is feasting on the supposed best defense in the league.

Dropping 40 on the best defense in the league like it's a YMCA game. Amazing. Deal with it Shaq.

I think Shaq pissed him off and we now see his final form.
