much shorter, skinnier Jokic is exactly what Bird would be in today's uber athletic NBA. He would be curb stomped. He would be a poor man's Lonzo Ball. Or a 1 inch taller Shaun Livingston. A role player who would have to make his shot a lot quicker to get it off against NBA level wing defenders.
Just look at other shooters and see their quick releases, to see what type of shooter works these days.
now slow ass Bird. Look at him double clutch every shot here and hold his elbow way out like a shot put. Easy to block that . Reminds me of Lonzo Ball
