'It's just basketball' 😂
Nuggets are the Akatsuki of the NBA.
Peace! I’m going with 🐜 Ant -MAN vs Arthur Fleck (Joker) it’s MARVEL VS D C.🧼🫡🐜🧲 MARVEL WINS! Minnesota over Denver in 7!!!
Mainstream pundits need to start being more serious, we are seeing one of the greatest to ever do it, MVP should never even be in question for Jokic. All of Jokics starting lineup are good players but let's be real without jokic they are not even a play in team. If jokic wins again he is firmly in my top 10.
Denver Nuggets!!!☝️🏀🏆💪👏🫶
Huge fan here from NYC 🗽
AD Cooked jokic all series and was the best player on the court dont @ me
I would say Murray dominated. Jokic has bad defense. Granted he's playing hurt.
This guy had to pivot after this boy lebron got smoked by a very low athletic player.
Jokic sucks at defense, that's why he had 18 defensive rebounds. Young people are so dumb they don't know that second chance points is what wins games, like Aaron Gordon's offensive rebound with 1 minute left for Jamal Murray's 3 pointer.
Round 2 would be tough. tWolves will win
Why does Jokic have to go undefeated to be a great player?
Your acting like the lakers are world beaters…. newsflash they're not and the nuggets looked very beatable and weren't all that impressive
He is, but the Nuggets are not.
The last game between Den-Minn at very end of season was very important for top seeding and both teams went all out.
Jokić finished 41-11-7 in that game. So yeah, definitely expect him to score more.
If the refs now consider to start giving jokic the free throws he deserves that could be a big impact. He has zero of them in the last match against the Lakers. That is crazy.
Jordan would be the 2nd best player in a series with Jokic
Joker lacks only two things, average hops and lateral movement. Every other athletic attribute is well above average.
He’s a tub of lard and hard on the eyes but dayummmmm that brother is the best in the whole dang world and he’s just amazing ❤
He’s gonna be better against the wolves, because Gobert isn’t a threat to score outside of 5 feet from the basket
Refs tried there best to cheat for the Lakers, 29 free throws to denver 9.
Jokic didn’t dominate 😂 he played well and got cooked on the other end. MPJ and Murray hit 80% of all the big shots and AG got majority of clutch rebounds. You don’t know basketball my guy I’m sorry. Jokic nice but you’re reaching badly
Never forget this double clown said rui hach was clamping and was the answer to jokic last year when Jokics stat line was 34-21-14 lol
