This guy is pretty good. Maybe mvp caliber player
Jokic is really stat padding even in the playoffs huh /s
Sounds like he is an elite postseason performer while having one of the best regular seasons of all time. You know what? Maybe we should give Embiid the mvp instead.
Embiid is on a first class flight to Denver to officially hand off the trophy back to jokic afger safe keeping it for 2 weeks
I seriously don’t get people who try to minimize, discredit, or otherwise dismiss this man.
Even his bad games, which last night would qualify for him, are exceptional.
I’ve never seen anything like it. Thankfully, the majority of casuals have now seen him play more than one game.
The man is special
This is why I hate Jokic, total playoff triple double merchant.
Damn that’s crazy he’s been cooking in these playoffs
I just opened ESPN’s yt page… last three videos posted are titled: “Anthony Davis had ‘ZERO IMPACT’ on Game 2 😧 – Kendrick Perkins | Get Up”, “LeBron looks OLD?! 😳 Takeaways from the Lakers losing Game 2️⃣ vs. the Nuggets | Get Up” and “LeBron is in a SHOOTING SLUMP, HE’S TIRED! – JWill on the Lakers going down 2-0 to the Nuggets | KJM”. Fourth video is about Jimmy Butler…
oh god all these posts about praising our Lord are going to come back and bite us in the ass, if I learned anything its that you can in fact have too much of a good thing
189 divided with 13 equals 14,5. Jokic is fourteen times better than all NBA players combined. GOAT.
Maybe those advanced analytics were on to something…
statpadding CONE
and they’ve all mattered.
This man is a treasure to watch
These types of advanced stats are meaningless, anyone can outperform the entire NBA over the span of ~189 games when they’re just stat padding
Mark Jackson still needs to see more from Nikola before he can think about voting him for MVP.
Jokic seems pretty decent at basketball.
So crazy seeing betting odds at -120 for a triple dub in the playoffs
Embiid is a fraud
Shoutout to the guy who said he was closer to Gobert than Shaq on this sub 5 days ago
Is this what getting exposed in the playoffs looks like?
And they’re not baby triple doubles. Dudes putting up monster stat lines.
Damn. That’s a stat right there.
I heard he can’t defend as well as Embiid or AD though. He must not be very good! Also I’ve never watched him but here’s my analysis:
/s
Most fun player to watch since prime Curry. I can’t even be that mad if he beats the Lakers cuz I wanna see him play in the Finals
Lmao what a fucking machine
He had a bad game last night and still put up a 23/17/12 triple double
Jokic has been putting up NBA Jam numbers all playoffs
Up vote to scare Suns and Lakers fans
Imagine not giving this man the MVP. Hope he gets a ring to make up for it this year.
If Lebron had his stats the whole media wouldve gone bonkers lol
this boi can actually play? Right M. Jackson?
this is an insane stat.
The real MVP
I want to add also that Jokic just ended last night the longest streak of playoffs game with a GameScore of 30 or higher since you can find data about it. He had 6 of such games, the second longest streak was by Michael with 5.
Shouldn’t this be like, idk, huge news? and if Yoke fuck around and get a triple double again in LA, he’d surpasses Wilt for most TD3 in a single postseason. If that’s not a story, I don’t know what is.
The fucking worst part is he uses the most absurd strategy to do all this stuff. He wins games. He’s the worst fraud in the game.
The People’s MVP.
Imagine the coverage this would get if Lebron did it in his prime. But it’s like a side note for the media when Jokic does it lmao
