Almost 39 and he's somehow having his most efficient season ever. Looks way more explosive than he did in the playoffs and has good lift on his jumpshot again. Dude might fuck around and still dominate into his 40s.

A non-negligible factor as to why nuggets won - an injured bron

[–] inshadesofwrong@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago (2 children)

That and starting point guard averaged 6. People aren't ready to admit he'd have 2 more lakers rings if he wasn't injured.

I’m a Lebron Stan and idk if we can say they’d have a guaranteed 2 more lol. I think the nuggets series was way closer than it ended up looking, but still.

A non inured Bron could have maybeeee maybeee push it to six. But Denver would have ended in 5 regardless on average.

Bron's averaging good numbers vs lottery teams but that average goes out of the window vs a contender like Denver or Milwakee.1

If we're adding an "injury" asterisk for the Nuggets ring then the Bucks 2021 ring might as well not even exist lol

You could do this for every single championship if you wanted to

“Non-negligible” is the operative term, doesn’t seem like they are saying put an asterisk on it.

I think that Nuggets team beats us anyway. But with a healthy Bron foot we’re at least stealing a game or two.

[–] JustHereForPka@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

A healthy Bron obviously changes the equation, but I think you’re right. That Nuggets team just looked on a different level all throughout the playoffs

Jokic even on his worst playoffs nights was still putting up monster numbers.
