Nurkic holding Jokic to one of his worst performances in recent memory in the first half. There are probably only 2 players in the league that have the sheer mass to make Jokic work: Nurkic and Embiid.
I’m curious what the organization will do with Banton. If they plan to keep him, he could be an interesting rotational player. Just put him and Toumani in a gym all summer shooting jumpers all day long.
I think easily the best all-around game of his career. He did this against the #1 defense in the league. But he’s trash for not leading the team to a win.
Prime Detroit Bad Boys Jordan Rules attention.
On ball they had 2 players blitzing him and a 3rd player at the top of the key shading him. Off ball they were face guarding him. The defender literally had his back to the ball not caring what happened with the other 4 Blazers.
The most...
Lucky for us there are probably only 5 more games where we have to intentionally tank to lose.
