The funny thing is that Jokic was playing way off him and he still beat him. Watching the game thinking I don’t think Mitchell was ever that fast! Of course, in all fairness, Sexton still has a long way to go to catch Mitchell in the skill/bag of tricks category.
Jamal Murray and Michael Porter jr played really reserved, their not comfortable yet. Denver played bad they weren't ready.
That’s nothing, just think about how embarrassed Minnesota is going to be after we do it to them in their own building!
You mean like Doncic and the Mavs did in Phoenix last night?
Yeah, in all fairness, Garland went down early with an eye injury and Mitchell put the team on his back. He really did play fantastic! Invested, like he cared and wanted to be there.
Will Hardy is the real deal folks! He doesn’t deserve a four year hitch as a tank commander.
Jokic seemed to be sure Sexton will pass the ball to Markkanen or Conley. The very moment Sexton makes his move, Joker swings slightly to the left. The move Joker made was not big, but big enough Sexton got past him, and as Gay had pulled his man to the same side as Markkanen and Conley, Sexton had lots of room to his left (to the right of Jokic). Seemed to me this was a game-plan the coach had made, spesifically to get past Jokic (you need space to get around his long arms), as Conley was very clearly shouting out to Gay to get next to Markkanen and thus make room on the left.
