.. who would it be? Talking about the players who played this season. Never mind the contract situation etc.. Just choose a 2021/2022 player who you think would be the best fit as an addition to our roster as it stands right now. Would you take one of the three MVP candiates? Maybe Tatum? KD? Ja? LBJ? Kawhi? Just kidding. him.
Remember, it would be an addition to our current roster.
I personally would go with Giannis, even if shooting/spacing between him and Poeltl would be a problem.
My second choice. Gotta spread that floor baby.
The Joker, instantly makes everyone better.
Love the Joker, but Ayton is actually a possibility unlike Jokic, however remote a chance it is.
Ja Morant(22 years old) and its not even close,,,,trade Murray.
Freak
Jason Tatum or Anthony Edwards. Maybe Giannis. Jokic is great but sucks at D. Embiid is gonan die soon. Morant is amazing but I can't help but think he's on the Derrick Rose trajectory and will probably suffer bad injuries sooner rather than later.
Tatum is probably the best two way player in the league right now.
The Joker really infuriates me as a player bc he’s such a damn good player that I can’t figure out why they suck so much with him on the playoffs.
Giannis is the best player at the position of need
Give me one of Giannis, Jokic, Tatum, or Luka..
Nikola Jokic, who isn't an athletic marvel but is probably the most cerebral big man ever. A genius on the court on offense and a hard worker on defense. How the did the Spurs' vaunted drafting team miss out on this genius (like everybody else) confounds me.
Tatum is probably the best 2way wing at this point, replacing Kahwi.
Tatum AND Giannis pls
Nobody going for slobbery mouthpiece?
With this current roster, Giannis.
But my first thought was Morant. But i'd rather have a big.
I knew you were Pop all along.
It's pretty easy to explain why the Nuggets are terrible during the playoffs. Outside of Jokic the rest of the team is pretty much trash with Murray and MPJ being out. All of these guys would not even be starters on the Spurs outside of Aaron Gordon.
It’s not just this year though. He got slapped around by LA in the WCFs. He got slapped around by the Suns in the second round last year and then again this year against the Warriors. And tbh even if he had Murray and MPJ they wouldn’t have fared much better. He just gets his ass kicked a lot for the supposed MVP and best player in the NBA. Hes supposed to be the best player in the conference at the very least but he doesn’t really perform like he is THAT guy.
Imo he’s the 3rd best player in the West and 5th best overall. I have him ahead of KD. But the guy needs to step up his game in the playoffs and get to the finals.
He didn't really get slapped around by LA. They were able to contain him by using constant double teams of Dwight and AD. He was basically playing 1 on 2 against those guys. That was the last year where Dwight was still a very solid player. Despite that he still averaged 21-7-5 on 53 percent shooting. Not great numbers but still pretty modest. When you said the Nuggets wouldn't have fared better against the Suns with Murray and MPJ what do you mean by that? That they would have still gotten swept or lost in 5. If they have MPJ and Murray that series is at least going to six games. Jokic averaged 25-13-5 against the Suns in that series on 47 percent shooting. I wouldn't call that being slapped around considering he was also going up against a great defensive big Ayton. Right now he's been putting up god like numbers against the Warriors the last 2 games in averaging 37 points a game. Overall for the series he's averaging 31-11-5 on 55 percent shooting. That's definitely not getting slapped around.
Giannis or Durant
