Nuggets Jokic Gets Rid of His Cold, But Remains Contagious With The Unselfish Disease
Who is Working With Nurkic?
Nurkic needs to do what Jokic does.
Go to the top of the key and screen and pass and move. He can make his ISO’s by overpowering most of the other centers guarding him, but this does not complement the identity of the team.
It should not be his norm on offense. He needs to focus on his timing. The rest of the guys have to keep moving.
It is totally up to Nurkic to reach his team potential.
He needs to do what Jokic does as much as he can if he wants to play. He has the attributes.
This isolation and his weak defense is the reason he is on the bench. Nurkic understands defense; he just gets brain dead, emotional or lazy.
If he wants to keep his value, he needs to adjust quickly and practice team work accordingly.
Watching Cleveland getting devoured by Golden State accentuates this assistance persistence. Golden State had 37 assists to Cleveland’s 11. Bingo. Cleveland was devoured 126-91.
