Can't compare him to previous players since there's no defense being played in this era. But Joker is by far the best right now.
All I know is after his 4th MVP they better stop giving it to him because LeBron should be sitting at 7 MVPS and they stopped giving it to him because of “Player fatigue”
ESPN firing Zach Lowe and keeping a legit moron in Perkins is so wild to me.
I got love for Jayson Tatum and his great season so far, but Jokic is the best player in the league. He just is.
Wait is this a video from 2023? or 2022? or 2021? or 2020?
The lip dubbing at the end is hilarious!
Denver is LA daddy lediddy is trash
Am i still in my universe? Perks is singing a different song
Most valuable player in history of the game. No player ever was as valuable to their team, as Jokic is valuable to the Nuggets.
Jokic was robbed last year! This should be his fifth!
us cunts stoled mvp from him
Jokic team is holding him back he should be have multiple championships right now
Dominating like an early Bird. Just not leading to the requisite wins.
Incredible individual season but I’m sorry we have to get back to best player on a top team. This current formula will lead to more inconsistency. When Jokic does this again next season they won’t reward and why? Just because lol. You need to have a top 4 record in the league to win.
Bob Myers, you're wearing that necklace with a TIE? that had better be a joke
While the stats are impressive you have to keep in mind the era they are playing in now compared to before. The pace of play, how many offensive possessions they have, the extremely beneficial rules for offense, the lack of calling travels, carrying, moving screens etc. Look at scoring across the league compared to past era's. It's simply not the same league.
Jokic is the Saint of basketball and you should celebrate 🎈❤
these numbers don't even make sense to me. this shouldn't even be possible.
Please all do not listen to Kendrick Perkins 🤡 anymore. How dare you talking about The Joker after what you did.
Get rid of Murray!!
For the love of god Jokic please trade to a better team!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Anyone not fast-forwarding Perk's takes?
I said 8 years ago ,all our friends laughed,when I say our I mean ours IC IC IC IC IC IC IC IC
In 2005-2006, the lakers improved by 19.2 possessions per 100 when kobe Bryant was on the floor. That was the best mark ever. Jokic is on pace to shatter that record and by doing this puts into question of what we previously thought possible
Perkins so badly wants the audience to forget that he was straight disrespecting Jok not that long ago, he's a clown.
Jaden McDaniels is not hooping 😡
Can people stop saying “clip”? Thanks.
PEOPLE THOUGHT HE IS NOT SERIOUS IN PLAYING BASKETBALL. BUT THE TRUTH IS HE IS ACTUALLY SERIOUS AND REALLY PASSIONATE
A few years ago Perk was the one saying you were racist if you thought Jokic deserves the MVP
Context: Stats are highly inflated since post 2012. Jokic is still the best player right now but stats wise he would have a lot less if he played in the 90’s or 2000’s.
