  1. dude says wemby is a better defender than rudy proves that he knows nothing about basketball. Ball isnt about blocking shots, its about rotations, knowing plays, if they swapped teams, rudy would carry the spurs to 10 more wins legit. wemby would tank the minn defense to the 6th seed. NBA is way more complicated than "blocks LOL" its about positioning play recognition and just way more than this guy understands. such a dogshit take, absolutely horrible. I CANNOT believe he said that

  2. No player in NBA history except Jokic took a team without 2nd and 3rd player to a 6th seed in a loaded conference where no other player on his roster averaged more than 14ppg! Also that season Jokic had the highest PER in NBA history plus as always he led his team in each and every basic and advanced stats which was also never seen in history! And he keeps merging the conferences to make it sound as if Nuggets were the 10th seed when in fact half f those Eastern Conference teams would be bellow the Nuggets if they played in the Western Conference. Cherry picking and skewing facts, Same thing is what SAS and Perkins and Nick Wrong always did and still do for low IQ basketball fans

  3. Gospodine voditelju hvala na objektivnosti i realnosti sto Jokica podrzavate jer ste veliki i posten covek,realnost je da je Jokic pokraden da ne bude 4 puta za redom MVP iz samo jednog razloga a to je da nebi prosle godine bio jednak sa domaćim Američkom legendama Birdim i ostalim a 4 puta za redom ubacili bi da je jedini koji je ikada bio najbolji u NBA istoriji!!! To je sramota sport nesme nikada da se dovodi u svetu politike ili da se deli na crne i bele igrace ili na domace u strance,gospodo moja Amerika je zemlja stranaca a ako ceni posteno Amerika je zemlja Indijanaca,i po tome onda bi samo Indijanci mogli da kazu su oni Amerikanci!!! Arenas ne voli Jokica jer je Jokic stranac belac i pogotovo sto je Srbin kao i rasista Perkins sto mrzi bele igrace i strance,to je nedopustivo i sretno da se ljudi dele na crne bele domace ili strance,krv je krv i ona nezavisi od boga kome se molis ni od vere kojoj se molis ni od imena i bajraka krv je krv i ona nema razlike!!!! Zao mi je sto je svet prestavio nas Srbe kao lose momke npr Novaka Djokovica itd,a to je Laz mi smo gostoljubiv narod dobar,koji igra peva zna sa se veseli da potrosio novac kao niko drugi,odani smo drugovi i prijatelji,Beograd je grad mozda najbolji na svetu za provod,kod nas da tražite parce hleba svako bi vam dao na ulici i da vas ne poznaje…ja nikada nisam gledao ko Perkins bradonja koje je koje boje kože,meni je najveci idol bio Muhamed ali,voleo sam kivija Brajanta itd,obožavam da gledam voditeljka NBA afro Amerikanku koja stalno brani Jokica i kojoj je u emisiji vesti gost Perkins i Dzeferson,,toliko je lepa pametna zgodna sve je na njoj lepo…i oko i zub i nokat i rame i kosa i faca,sta bi dao da sam sa njim isao bi pravo do neba,najzgodnije zene na svetu su crne zene afro Amerikanke i zene sa Kariba crne zene.U mojoj Srbiji nema afrikanka i verovatno cu umreti a nikad necu doziveti da se probudim pored bar jedne,to ce mi biti najteže na svetu da odem sa ove zemlje a da nikad nisam imao devojku ili zenu crnkinju!!! I luka doncic je Srbin samo sto igra za Sloveniju i drszen Petrović je srpskog porekla po ocu svom,i Nikola Tesla je bio Srbin,znaci nista bez Srba!!! Ha ha ha Salim se naravno.

  4. Kazu Jokic spor nema odraz itd,pa kako onda ima vise po Mecu od 10 skokova i vise po nžmecu od 26 poena!!! Da ne govorim o asistencijama,niko ne gleda dobro obratite pažnju kolko se Jokic dobro krevet i koliko brzo trci u kontru za visokog igraca,kazu spor,a pogledajte u driblingu ledjima koliko je brz i eksplozivan kad u želucu sekunde okrene protivničkog centra i zakuca ili piloti loptu,kad je tako spor a svi to kazu,pa sto onda neorinadnu rešenje da ne daje tolike kiseve nži skokove na utakmici?

  5. Jokic is a plenty athletic for basketball. That is why he beats everyone. Dexterity and iq also counts big deal. 😂It is not Mr universum so every muscle needs to be visible.

  6. It doesn't help that Gilbert and his friends act ignorant and racist sometimes even if they're not. The reason I stopped watching his channel. Shannon is probably wondering why he has this guy come on his show still

  7. For real Gil just sound like an idiot he is not convincing anybody that jokic is the worst mvp

  8. Each year joker deserved mvp. Both teams wanted to win.No one plays to lose to play a last team seed contender. The worst MVP? 😂Poorest Billionaire 😂

  9. Gil, if you're going to try and have a scorching hot take like "Jokic is the worst MVP ever, " at least do some research or have stats or evidence to back it up. Jokic is a better player, in totality, than Westbrook, Harden, Embiid, Nash, Rose, Garnett, Barkley, McAdoo, Cowans, Reed, and probably more. You're just focusing on exciting because that's all you were elite at.

  10. The unfortunate thing about Wemby is that they usually don't give the big awards to rooks but also you'd be giving DPOY to the player in the worse team in the west instead of the player with the second best record in tge west. It's very hard to get past that.

  11. Uncle,pease,please stop. Joker and Luka are both white players,Gil is going to have a heart attack 🤣🤣

  12. Jokic this season

    1st in VORP

    2nd in triple doubles

    9th in PPG

    4th in RPG

    3rd in APG

    Shooting 57.8% from the field

    Jokic On the court +11.6

    Jokic Off the court -8.6

    On/off = +20.2

  13. gil he has not grown he is still seven feet four and your man is just standing there watching the JOKER score europe has a certain way of play and it is stronger than nba system

  14. 20 of the 40 were 1 on 1 with RG. Joker went 8-10. Saying he didn't earn his 2 MVPs was disgraceful. Arguably, he should have won last year as well. You can see how much RG don't want Joker to be the winner this year. It kills him that a white boy is the best player in the world. Let's just be honest.

  15. Did Gil not watch the Lakers series last year??? There was a reason why they took AD off jokic and put rui on him instead. If you use your center to guard jokic that means that your best rim protector is taken out of the paint = easy points off cuts that jokic can exploit.

    People that are saying that gobert doesn’t deserve DPOY are dumb af. Nobody can guard jokic 1v1, including Embiid, AD, and Gobert. And even if you do stop him, he’ll just hit cutters to the exposed paint because the center is guarding him and not the rim.

  16. Gil had every opportunity to say something positive about Joker and he just can’t do it. Blamed jokers popping off on Rudy’s refusal to guard him lol. This guys just a hater get him off the air waves.
