  • Anthony Edwards on Nikola Jokic’s masterful Game 5 performance: “I just laugh. That’s all I can do.”
    Denver Post, Wednesday - 05/15/2024 - 04:07 AM

    Rudy Gobert’s effort was valiant. But Nikola Jokic was just too good. In the midst of Jokic’s scoring onslaught in the third quarter of Game 5, the Timberwolves big man was in the paint, trying his best to prevent the three-time MVP from moving around him. Jokic backed down Gobert, turned left, then right, then left again before he shot the ball over the four-time Defensive Player of the Year’s outstretched arm and into the heavens before dropping down through the net. The Nuggets took a seven-point lead with 6:40 left in the quarter, as Minnesota — the best defensive team in the NBA — saw its hopes for a Game 5 slowly fading away. “I just laugh.
