The Jokic top 10 All-time Conversations will be uncomfortable

[RedBull]

Bryant Reeves had a similar playstyle to Joker & even gave Shaq problems. Joker is the ultimate God version of Reeves. Joker would absolutely cook the same way in the 90s as he is now.

Country played nothing like Joker at all. In what aspect? Not shooting, passing, or rebounding.



Reeves gave Shaq trouble because he was big and strong at 7’0 315+ lbs ( reports said he was up to 375lbs). He gave Shaq minor issues from a physical stand point, not skill.

Shaq vs. Reeves head up

Averages
Player	Points	Rebounds	Assists	Steals	Blocks
Shaquille O'Neal	27.1	11.4	3.9	1.0	3.5
Bryant Reeves	11.2	8.3	1.8	0.6	0.7

Where are these issues? Shaq is 12-1 vs Reeves


Joker ain’t cooking nothing like today in the 90’s because his ass would been in the box.

Yall say anything

For y'all saying Joker is top ten, where does Giannis rank?

 

[Lord Beasley]

He's right though. Zubac gives Jokic PROBLEMS...just look at last round or any time they've gone against other.



Zu is the only impactful "old school" 5 in the league. In the 80's and 90's Zu would've been one of many.

Joker has shown that he don't have to be the no. 1 scorer to get the job done. He's constantly running breaks and facilitating at an extremely high level. Mf will go 31/21/22 or 41/20/6 like last night. He's giving those paint-dwelling bigs fits too (offensively), not saying they wouldn't fk him up down low tho like big Zu...

Y'all expect them big mfs to run out 3pt line and contest him, burning up whatever energy reserves they got, or you just gonna let him shoot over a guard or wing with that high ass release. The crigga shot 41% from 3 this year as a center....and averaged a triple double

Offensively, joker is a problem in any era. Most skilled big man ever

When it's all said and done:

1. Bron
2. Joker
3. MJ

People still don't have Moses in Top 10, and barely remember him in 15. Their resumes are the same, and while you can say Jokic for passing at least Moses played defense.

At this point.





I wish sabonis came over earlier..
Sohh we had a real timeline comparison of the best euro big.

To offer to combat the jokic glazing.

I am a nuggets fan. Yet the racist eastern blue blood seaboard media meets white flight stste media glazing of jokic is a disgusting racially fueled bias dialogue.

I don’t think Jokic and ‘80s Sabonis are similar at all. Sabonis was a great athlete and more of a volume scorer.

Jokic beats and in some instances dominates Malone in nearly every category.

Also let me put you all on to game. Malone rebounded a lot because he wasn’t an efficient scorer like other centers were and like Jokic is, which this comparison shows.

People still don't have Moses in Top 10, and barely remember him in 15. Their resumes are the same, and while you can say Jokic for passing at least Moses played defense.

I think Malone is underrated historically–because his career started in the ABA–but Jokic is a better player.

 

[Hacksaw Jim Thuggin]

I'm getting the Coli ready because the Jokic conversations as a Top 10 player of all-time will start soon and he deserves to be in the conversation. Jokic's resume and accolades will compare favorably to all the timers. He has 3 MVP's, more than Shaq, Kobe, Hakeem, Duncan, Steph, etc. LeBron has 4 and MJ has 5. Jokic has a chance to pass them in MVP's. By the time Jokic's career ends, a lot of your favorite players will get be in the same convo as Jokic like Magic, Bird, Shaq, Steph, Kobe, Hakeem, Duncan, Wilt, etc.

yall do this shyt all the time....too early....a few years ago you nikkas was say giannis was gonna be the greatest player ever....

how about letting a player play out his career?

anything can happen

And Moses was straight out of high school. No college. Huge deal back then.

 

[KidJSoul]

Gonna be difficult moving someone out of the top 10 when his career is over. Right now, in all honesty, Jokic is top 10 excluding nobody, but it's difficult to say that. A Center putting up triple doubles like he does is status. But Shaq, Wilt, Russell, Bird, Magic, Durant somebody got to drop to top 20 when it comes to Joker

Durant isn't top 10 at all, never was

I don’t think Jokic and ‘80s Sabonis are similar at all. Sabonis was a great athlete and more of a volume scorer.

I posted that.
To acknowledge my own curious what if sabonis came in his esrly 20's fantasy comparison to jokic.

CACs are going to push this narrative HEAVY.
