They should've never paid Murray that money. He's never made an all star game. No all nba teams. So I don't feel sorry for Denver. Idiots!
Joker should get trade to the golden state

Jokic is putting up HISTORIC numbers. Everytime he's playing his stats are being compared to Kareem, Shaq, and all time greats. Embiid won't ever stack up. Jokic left him in the dust about 2 MVP's ago.
Lebum and KD played with 18 All Star players in their careers. Thanos 0
Stat machine? Shameless.
Luka 34/9/9 last season and didn't win MVP because Mavs was a 6th seed…
No MVP at play-in seeds…
I really wanted Giannis to be the MVP but I guess he'll be runner up because this guy is just unbelievable.
08:13 Chiney is still saying Russell WestbrIck….๐๐๐๐๐
Embiid such a big B** .. Can soneone block his @$$ a couple times ??? . Lol
This is a true MVP.
Sixers 15th without him.
Playoff team with him.
Facts are facts
Jokic could never average Embiids ppg.
Yall must forget Embiids 19 points in the semi final vs Jokic.
๐
Absolutely cooked their team.
Dan Issel? Who is this bald loser?
Thank you very much Bobby to educate a panel of fools: Sabonis is the only player in history to compare Joker to.
So happy we have different outlets here in 2024, espn just demonstrating how obsolete they are.
100+ points
28 rebounds
16 assists….
50+% shooting
In less than 24 hours
RIDICULOUS.
Embid needs go to Mexico and get some good stem cells.
EmFlop FT merchant Master! ๐ซต๐
EmFlop bots are everywhere ๐ฅช
Jokic should be going for his 5th straight mvp this year. In 2023 these are his numbers vs embiid.
Points= Jokic= 24.5 Embiid= 33.1
Reb= Jokic=11.8. Embid= 10.2
Assist= Jokic= 9.8 Embiid= 4.2
Steals= Jokic= 1.3 Embiid= 1.0
Blks= Jokic= 0.7. Embiid= 1.7
FG%= Jokic= 63.2. Embiid= 54.8
Points created per game from scoring or Assist.
Jokic= 44.1( 24.5 from scoring & 19.6 points from assist)
Embiid= 41.5 ( 33.1 from scoring and 8.4 from assist)
So lets say jokic's assistant advantage and Embiids scoring advantage are canceled out. Jokic averaged more rebounds, steals, and shot almost 9% better from the field.
Jokic was 1st in player efficiency at 31.5 and embiid at 31.4.
Jokic was first in win shares at 14.9. Embiid was 4th best at 12.3.
Jokic was 1st in box+minus at 13.0 and Embiid was 2nd with 9.2.
Jokic was 1st in value over replacement player with 8.8 and Embiid was 3rd with 6.4.
"Dan Issel…" As Ali G once said: ""Who is you?!"
When comparing Jokic to Wil Chamberlain people forget the fact that Will was 6 cm taller than Jokic and other players where on average 7cm shorter than today's NBA players so basically Will had 6+7=13cm height advantage over Jokic. Just try to imagine if J,oke was 13cm taller how crazy his dominance would be ๐
Why not in conversation in MVP if they are .500??? Ramona is a joke. Put any other player in Denver instead of him they will have 5 wins in the whole season. Other guys are just baaaad
Shawty lied Jordan first mvp season he averaged 35.0 PPG smh there some nerd talk for ya
They shouldnโt have paid Murray. Literally every Nugget fan knew this but Booth is a moron.
Bro people really hate embiid
Every time one of these media heads start comparing today's player with yesterday's I cringe.
An unathletic 7 footer dominating an era where players are supposed to be more skilled, better training, and more sophisticated facilities. And people still think theyโre better than 90s and early 2000s brand of basketball?? Laughable!
They got a big 3 and only won by 8?
All those doctors need to get their license reevaluated
Embiid will be crying by the end of the play in
Am I the only guy who thinks it is a nonsense to associate MVP award with team position on the table?
โ๐พ 40pt / 5reb / 10ast
Jokic mvp. Jokic mvp.
Why are we listening to any of these people
If you play within the team ,even if you are the focal point, and the team isn't having success but you are doing Joker work, why can't you be the MVP? He's not the only one ballin, keep an eye on that Freak Milwaukee ๐ js. Joker is highly consistent so he can keep this up even as they get healthy. But there is competition
I love how these people talk like Embiid and PG are Lebron and if they can make the playoffs they have a chance. These are two guys that struggle to take their team anywhere in the playoffs, even when healthy.
Who gives a dam๐ ๐ ๐
Lookin good in dat Red girl
Ive ran out of positive things to say about Joker. Hes the best ive seen.
All theze white boys are delusional as hell. IF EMbid had good knees Jokic probably wouldn't have 1 mvp. EMBID COOKS HIS AZZ EVERY SINGLE TIME THEY PLay. Just look it fools. And Embid holds Jokic ๐ dman clowns
Smh….. here's a drop the mic moment for ya'll! Its interesting having a conversation about who's better Embiid or Joker. I mean its close and can go either way. But Joker is getting the nod due to his availability. So let this sink in. If Joel Embiid was a healthy player and not injury prone the discussion at that point would not even be close!!! We actually would be stamping that Embiid is one of the best big men ever to play! The fact an injury riddle Embiid is still comparable to Joker is crazy! Stop hating on this man!!!
Joel Embiid is the best in the world, jokic is nothing compare to him. sixers are nothing wihtout Embiid the MVP of the world
lets be real embiidi is just acting injured to rest
