No I legit do think that is the complete opposite but idk could go both way depending on your opinion 😂, cause if you think about it, how can I be complacent and yet work hard enough to just lose by 12. Vs, eh I’m not really gonna try much, I’m up 1 game anyway, boom lose by 45
I feel you but sometimes, no matter how good or great an individual defender is, one player in particular is just a bad matchup. Dennis Rodman was the best perimeter defender of his generation but Karl Malone and occasionally Shawn Kemp would own him no matter what he did. I think you’re right that Gobert is a but overrated but he’s still a really solid defender. I think KAT is stronger and has a lower center of gravity combined with quickness makes him a better defender against the Joker.
@@jmoney6043 AD did just as poorly against Jokic. It's a matchup issue. People best able to defend Jokic are those capable of getting a lower center of gravity to combat his mass and strength. AD and Gobert are both tall and strong, but they don't have the mass and ability to get low enough to battle Jokic in the paint. That's why KAT does better
@@CharlieLucky526 bingo, it's a matchup problem. You need to not only be strong but be able to get low enough to battle Jokic like the bigs of former days used to do. KAT is heavier with a lower center of gravity and he's also able to get lower than Gobert. Naz also can be an acceptable defender against Jokic, but Naz reaches in even more than KAT does so gets called for fouls way quicker. I mean, has anyone noticed that Naz is the only one who has blocked Jokic while guarding him? It's because he can stay up close and battle like KAT, but he also has the benefit of being a bit quicker and more athletic so is able to also reach in far enough to get a hand on Jokic's behind the head shot
NBA is a matchup based league. Centers don't man up on guards generally, etc. Jokic is an offensive menace and cooks everyone he plays. Kat is just faster laterally and lower center of gravity which helps him vs Joker. Gobert has been the unquestioned backbone of the best defense in the league, and getting cooked by the best player in the world is hardly an indictment.
yes, Jamal Murray plays as an injured one - he is sooo slow and not-assertive at all... really bad for Nuggets. Good news is they have 2 and a half days of rest - hopefully, it will help Jamal to prepare.
05/17/24: I agree, let him be Anthony, he does not need the pressure. Also, the press loves you when you win, and shut you down when you loose. Keep your head in the right place, stay humble and you will go far in life.
Paul had nothing to say last 2 Denver wins. was ghost. now he's smiling cause t-wolves finally won to go to game 7. Complacent? No. T-Wolves just played harder. like a team that knew it was facing elimination. It's not that deep
If he wins at 22, he would do what Jordan couldn't do, so yeah, we need to stop the comparison. Jordan might have a dpoy and scoring title in his 4th year, but Ant could possibly be a champion and finals mvp in his 4th yr. I'll take that over dpoy and scoring title anytime
What Keyshawn didn't name his boy damn he said Kobe and Michael Jordan now you know he's a LeBron fan he's always putting him first you could have knocked me over with a feather when he said that did not include his boy wow😂😂😂😂😂😂
This looked like the game was thrown by Denver The nuggets wasn’t even trying this was probably the nba pushing for 7 games this was rigged game 7 breaks the bank and this series is considered the championship cause after this series the nba ratings will plummet
Complacency gets you beat by maybe 12, 15, or 20...not 45.

Exactly not 45
Rudy Gobert is an overrated defender. The fact that KAT played better defense on Jokic than the DPOY is crazy.

AD should've been defensive player of the year

Can we stop with the Jordan comparisons, let the kid win a championship first
he is baby Jordan tho. Cant deny that
Kobe didn’t win won before the comps started… relax. Look how long it took Jordan himself to win one
@@mogulme6190 whats with the hating though ?lol The kid is phenomenal! he's gonna do great things in this league
Until he wins a chip, hes just the next Isiah Rider

Complacency.....yeah let's purposely play with 🔥....
lol, first it was Timberwolves in 4, then it was Nuggets in 6 and now its Timberwolves in 7....the truth is. no one knows who is winning this.
Truth says Denver will win, didn't you listen 😁

So magic Johnson is better than mj because he won Championship earlier?
