I've seen enough: Jokic is a top 6 center of all-time
- Thread starter 2legit
- Start date
Stop sucking the Serbian
Only 4 centers I rate above him all time
Kareem
Shaq
Wilt
Hakeem
Bill with all due respect isn't on Jokic's level but with 11 rings, people are compelled to have him in their top 5 (not for me though)

From an offensive standpoint he's the best.
On this site I have a track record of supporting everything 90s basketball, but he may arguably be the best center of all time once he retires.
He strikes me as someone that could conceivably retire while still in his prime though, based on how he perceives basketball as just a career and nothing more.

Quote a post, I'm only on here twice a month tops so you should be more efficient with your time. Unless you're looking for a back and forth, in which case say something provocative and I'll troll back when I feel like checking in on if yall are still debating Bron vs Jordan on this site@Smoking With Cigarettes bring ya ass
That's not really true though. Jazz and Clippers were both on pace for 50-win seasons, it was just a shortened season. You're basically wiping out his accomplishments from his two best postseasons just because one had a Covid break and the other had some upsets.
I agree that his resume is missing any wins over great teams, but saying over and over that he hasn't beat a 50-win team is disingenuous.
For those who don't want to be prisoners of the moment, Jokic just turned 29 and has a title and 3 MVPs. Let's look back at where some other great centers were at 29.
Wilt at 29 didn't win a playoff series that year, but he did win his 2nd MVP. He had no rings.
Kareem at 29 missed the playoffs for the 2nd year in a row. He had 4 MVPs but just 1 title.
Moses Malone at 29 got knocked out of the playoffs in a 1st-round upset. He had 3 MVPs and 1 title, just like Jokic.
Hakeem at 29 missed the playoffs after 4 consecutive 1st-round exits the previous 4 years. He had no titles and not even a top-3 MVP finish.
David Robinson at 29 had just lost to the Jazz in the first round. At this point in his career he had no MVPs and had only won 2 playoff series.
Coliseum posters would have been going in on all of them the same way they're going at Jokic. Hell, Jokic is the only one of the five who actually won a playoff series the year he turned 29.
