    Jokic is a magician - he’s significantly better than Brunson - do you think comparing them helps credibility? :rolleyes:

    curry is listed at 6’2 and is prolly 6’3 (plus he’s a god shooter.)

    Brunson is listed as 6’2 and is prolly 5’11 (plus he’s not a god shooter)

    Brunson ain’t a superstar lol.

    YOU said that brunson was a 2nd rounder implying basically that he's not talented because of that.....hence the jokic example. That's fine if you don't think brunson isn't a superstar, i don't either. Hali sure as hell isn't either. Curry is not 4 inches taller either obviously, that's utter nonsense. You're just making up crap.

    Jokic was a foreign undiscovered gem who was drafted before the league shifted. He’s more akin to a pick like manu ginobili (foreign gem found).

    saying Jokic being a second round pick is equal to American college champion being a second round pick ain’t it.

    Hali is a superstar… seriously?
    He’s way better and more talented than Brunson.

    Brunson is just a mid player all star who got hot in the mid east with injured bad weird Celtics.

    It is because you suggested that Jokic coming from being a second round pick is equal to Brunson coming from being a second round pick.

    being a second round pick is part of why Brunson is meh. It has not held back Jokic at all as there is sound reasoning behind it.

    Brunson is not "meh". Is he a superstar? no, there's like 4 of those. Is he an all nba player and a top 10 guy? Absolutely.

    has he ever even had a triple double in his career? Hali already has one.

    Brunson is an undersized shooting guard who can’t defend or pass. Just flops.

    Remember Dallas didn’t even want to pay him a mid contract and made the finals without him.

    top 10? Jesus Christ.

    Shai, Jokic, Giannis, embiid, Halliburton, curry, LeBron, ant, cade, towns all easily way better

    What is the timeline with OKC atop of the conference? You do realize they're the youngest team in the league and headed to the finals. They also have the mvp who is 26. So the Rockets need to wait it out? Im listening

    Take your pick. Giannis with Amen and Sengun or Giannis with Amen and Green.

    If everything is based on this one game and one game only, and you ignore all previous games/seasons, than i agree with you

    I don’t get why that matters? Has he had games this season like hali where he scored 0? Do superstars have games with 0?

    what gamble? Harden was coming off 6th man of the year award and played big minutes with the skills and capability to be a starter. OKC didn’t want to offer him the max. It was no secret what Harden could do as a player. Haliburton has always been a great 3pt shooter, passer, and capable defender. Everyone knew what he was and could be. Kings wanted to invest in a fox and Sabonis duo and Haliburton was expendable.
