and then i think one ring is fine but if he got more itd be better

if he another couple rings on similarly dominant playoff runs it would supercharge the process
he already has 2 mvps could def get another, id say his chances of ending up as a widely acknowledged top ten guy are really good, injuries aside hes clearly on the trajectory

his floor is prob moses malone who had three mvps and a ring level

the list of guys since the merger with at least 2 regular season MVPs and at least one finals MVP:
kareemmichael jordanwiltlebronmoses malonebirdmagicduncancurrygiannisjokic
that’s 11 guys, you can certainly make the argument for some others to be ahead of him (kobe, hakeem, shaq, russell), then — but assuming another 5 years of elite production I think he’s going to have a great argument. winning another title will obviously help

was trying to figure out why the nuggets are 3rd in adjusted net rating on dunksandthrees and this is probably why, I think their formula takes rest days into account as well which would make sense too

on the hoop collective podcast today they mentioned that jokic is 13-43 from the paint over the last 2 games, and that 30 missed shots in the paint over a 2 game span is the most since they started tracking in ‘96-‘97

lol during the game i googled why his arms get so scratched, this quote came up a couple times
"I lead the league in scratches. I'm always bleeding -- I'm used to it. I am going to wear sleeves next year -- 100 percent," Jokic told ESPN reporter Ohm Youngmisuk back in 2019.
he needs to get those sleeves!
in conclusion:
"I mean, to be honest, I'm wrestling with my brothers since I'm 4. So I can wrestle a long time, a long time."
