This is the matchup. No doubt who gets the better of this one tonight.

You sure your guy isn’t ducking this one again? Still almost 2 hours for him to get cold feet again

Nuggets getting +6.5/+4.0 1H / +2.0 1Q hard not to take the points in this one, with Philly trying to figure out new lineups and Embiid reportedly with the Jordan Flu. ML briefly up to +250 for Denver, back down to +210 at tip.

Pretty even early on. Jokic have a couple more assists, both are playing just ok for their standards.

Just the 76ers look tired ...the 4th quarter is the Nuggets

At what point does wishful thinking simply succumb?

You pride yourself as a guy that simply knows better.

You don't

“Embiid down low... defended well by Jokic.”

Story of the night so far.

Jokic beating your boy on both ends of the court in the first half!

Love it.

They are sending doubles at him. Of course you won't admit it.

once they send a double its nothing to talk about. Embiid is single covering him.

They have a couple times.

You know what Jokic does when they send 2 defenders? He averages 8 apg, he doesn’t shoot 1-7.

Just admit Jokic isn’t terrible defensively anymore.

2nd half should be fun. Joker came to play in that 2nd quarter.

Jokic 14-4-4 first half 5-11 shooting

Embiid 4-8-0 in first half on 1-8 shooting.

Where are the assists if he’s getting doubled? That’s why my guy is better than your guy straight up.

Remember when Jokic couldn’t play defense? That was a looooong time ago.

Got it on but I'm moving around a little. Hear Embiid is 1-12?

Getting took out tonight i guess. Still the 4th but if they are doubling him its not a one on one matchup. I will watch more in depth in the morning.

They double a lot but Joker bodies him up just as much. He’s got this matchup. 76ers have a squad though with jimmy and Harris now.

Once again, I’m comfortable saying Jokic is the best 5 in the nba. He’s proving it against his only competition.

I have to see how Jokic is scoring his point.

He was just outclassed by KAT a week ago. Bit of a bumslayer. I'm not worried about this going forward. Embiid bested him last year also. I will concede this one unless Embiid has a monster 4th

If they are doubling then he is still terrible defensively. Basketball 101.

Just as I suspected. Owns Jokic overall.
