Marc Gasol was a hoe but I get what you’re saying but Gasol wasn’t appreciated as a defender until he dropped the baby fat

if you get a Jokic that turns into a better conditioned decent/good defender that makes him the best 2 way big in the league

He’s like how Noah was with no muscle definition when he came in the league



Noah then bulked up




shortly after he won DPOY

see what I’m getting at?

You gotta want to play hard on d and be smart enough to make it work jokic is only one of these things.

He would play harder theoretically if he didn’t have to worry about being too tired on the other end

don’t make me tell Jokic to get in shape so I can prove y’all wrong

he’s undercutting his potential looking like a cream cheese bagel though

Lmao okay fine but you get what I mean

I don’t think anybody besides hustle would disagree that he would be a better player to the point where it would be noticeable if he dropped more weight and bulked up or just became lighter

Lol I didn’t disagree. Anybody can benefit from being in better shape. But how much does it increase his ceiling from where he is now?

Prime example is Kevin love when he had the buzz cut in minny to around his 2nd year in Cleveland

do you see how he improved on defense?

That's just not true. Its plenty of niggas in peak physical condition getting paid top dollar that don't give a fuck about playing d or being better at it.

D is about effort and smarts more than anything else.

Told that nigga to stay in the back. Damn. Guess it's the only way he gets the money tho.

You don’t think Jokic is smart? You don’t think somebody would put in more effort on D if they were better conditioned? Didn’t Lowry become a better player after losing weight?
