What other player in the league can average 26 points, 13 rebounds and 9.5 assists for a series and shoulder 100% of the blame and somehow drop historically after 1 round? Kinda sounds like nicks guy LeBron, even though I don’t think any sane person was putting Jokic in an argument for top 2 player all time. But he’s being held to that standard for some reason and it’s infuriating. Especially when they now use Jamal Murray’s all star selection to say “well now Jokic has finally played with an all-star!” but murray puts up that performance last night and for the series as a whole.

He says it’s annoying because sga is good enough to not need to flop, which I guess is halfway the point, but to me the most annoying part is — maybe it’s so easy for him to score because the flopping has made other players not defend him as hard for fear of fouling out. Yet at the same time, the thunder somehow consistently get away with more when they are on defense, so they have no fear of fouling out.
