Jokic wasn’t gonna do SH*T. That’s why McDaniels GRABBED HIM AND SMIRKED IN HIS FACE.

Team JOKIC all day. All ways. Always.
Jaden had no business doing this. He wanted smoke and got it.
Plus why he reaches JokicΒ΄s jersey like that ? U mean you can
lift Joker ? YOU ?? ππ

Daniels still wouldn’t be intimidated if it was regular season, I’ve seen lil guys work big dudes over before so joker best not try running up on Daniel’s like that in regular season.

So why fine mcdaniels? They ride these white hypes hard
We just seen ayton get ejected for accidentally foul
Jokic shouldve been been fined with heavy consequences almost till suspended a game
Jaden was even pressing an issue

Look Wolves force Jokic to take Jumpshots heβs not as effective heβs either gonna hit or miss. Heβs not Steph Curry or Carmelo in the mid range or even Dirk. Thatβs literally it playoffs is about Stars not role players even tho they could have a moment itβs not moments.

Her question was why doesnβt SAS keep that energy if another superstar wouldβve exploded despite being blown out and he completely missed it.

Boy a 3 time MVP does not have the same criticism as a Lebron or KD.

It just begs the question, how important are unspoken rules? Does breaking them question oneβs honor to its profession?

If Shae was a few shades darker, she would look like Molly

like she said, if this was Lebron that did that SAS would say he was a sore loser and it was uncalled for
