Kelvin Washington: “Will it matter that in his era, he dominated where night in and night out he was by far the biggest person on the floor, aside from Joel Embiid or maybe a Sabonis? I only bring it up because sometimes there have been players or things where you put a little caveat, if you will.

Rob Parker: “I disagree with you. His talent is one that you can look at and say that it doesn’t matter who was playing. You brough up baseball, and even Babe Ruth still stood out during that era of segregation. He was so much better than everyone, nobody diminishes his ability.”
On today’s edition of The Odd Couple with Rob Parker & Kelvin Washington, Rob and Kelvin spoke about Nuggets C Nikola Jokic’s insane production night in and night out, with Kelvin wondering if it matters that Jokic plays in an era without much size.
