i mean thats what he gave
got home late tonight and saw jokic had only played 16 minutes by the end of the third quarter despite only having one foul and my heart stopped for a minute before I figured out he got ejected

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."

embiid will be gunning for it tho so jokic might have to try and care about it even just a little to pry it away later int he season
― infinite wiggles (Spottie), Wednesday, 10 January 2024 22:33 (seven months ago) link
embiid probably won’t qualify tbh. jokic might be MVP-tanking early this year tho

maybe, but i could see him (joel) juicing up to get it. its his championship, after all
― infinite wiggles (Spottie), Wednesday, 10 January 2024 23:47 (seven months ago) link
its probably more likely that shai gets up than embiid. embiid is just so tiresome and his team is not great

mixed feelings about this stuff, man. I wish the two sides would mend fences — melo is the reason I became a nuggets fan and he really did turn the franchise around, not only by reaching the conference finals but also by being turned into the building blocks of the current core. he’s the bridge between eras of this team. but at the end of the day I truly don’t know whom the pettier party is

still buzzing about the game last night. I’ve been ridiculously lucky to see this game and opening night in person this year, both of which were big statement wins over good teams (or in the case of the lakers, a team with high expectations)
the nuggets are in the middle of a tough stretch of games that they’ve mostly played well in, but what really impressed me is how much they really wanted this one after dropping that game in philly: they wanted a test, so they put out their playoff rotation and all the things that took them to the finals last year —murray/jokic 2-man game dominance, gordon at backup 5, and just putting the absolute clamps down defensively in crunch time. (credit to my gf btw who noticed “is that gordon playing center?” before me, she’s a keeper.) the defense is something that has always been there with this core 5 and gets lost in the national narrative at times because malone will play a lot of bench-heavy lineups that weigh down their rating, but the starters/finishers have always put down the clamps. to see it on the road against the best team in the league was incredible.
will be interesting to see how the rest of the regular season shakes out but it already seems like the playoff rotation is pretty set — jokic/jamal/KCP/AG/MPJ, with peyton, reggie and christian getting 10-20 mins apiece. we got there early for warmups yesterday and I saw vlatko cancar out shooting and it reminded me how much we miss him this year. I doubt the nuggets will make a MAJOR splash at the deadline but they really could use a big to play 6-12 minutes in big games to ease the pressure off jokic and gordon. andre drummond’s name has been floated which I think makes a ton of sense as a guy who obviously has his limitations but can rebound and protect the rim a bit. seems like the ship might have sailed on zeke nnaji unfortunately

almost like they only expect one of those teams to come out of the east
― micah, Sunday, 21 January 2024 03:05 (seven months ago) link
ha — they definitely didn’t NOT take that matchup seriously (even if jokic didnt take the matchup with embiid personally), but there were some locker room videos that showed malone and the team had planned to win this one at all costs, super sick to see them lock in and hand the best team in the league their first home loss
