Nikola Jokić is shooting 42 percent from three, he's third in steals, second in assist, third in scoring, third in rebounding, plus he leads the NBA in Fantasy Points per game, so right now how can you give Shai Gilgeous-Alexander MVP over that. Plus throw in how might average a triple double. Think about this, the only thing he's not doing is blocking shots, these are some crazy numbers. Talking about cheat codes, this is crazy. Sorry it's not even close to me. The numbers don't lie. LEADS league in Fantasy Points Per Game, that's crazy.
Gilbert got it.
Shaggy shouldn’t talk Jokic at all his case he’s tired of seeing a white men win
You boys keep talking about Joker doing something you've never seen after saying Dub isn't ready and fail to note that Shai has led the youngest team in the NBA to the 1st seed in back-to-back seasons with a second option you said isn't ready. You ever seen that!?! You took a dump on Westbrook recording back-to-back-to-back triple-double seasons and called it stat padding. Stop talking out of both ends.
Nick Young at the end Lol “security 🫵🏾” pointing at Mccants when he put the mask on 😭😭😭
For the first time I can’t agree with big bro Kenyon on this one. Lamar didn’t even deserve it . Ima colts fan but I think burrow deserved it. He doing jokic shit but no help on defense . He threw for like 5k yards and had most TD thrown
Stephan A smith hating on jokic is nothing new, It must be hard to hate on someone all your life
Media should never have a vote because a lot of them are bias and get in their feelings.
Close only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades , Gil dropped a bar 🔥😂😂
We are in the Jokic era…so he gets the MVP over everybody…unless someone has a serious breakout year 🤔
17:00 Have you ever did it…😅😅😅
22:15 MVP award doesn't transfer year to year…that point is a violation of the award…Jokic era…I understand the point…but all players have a clean slate…year to year
I only come here to hear Mccants absolutely insane takes.
Rashad was not messing around this episode. That man was trying to set up the play for first take I see you 😅
Can’t let the white guy win another MVP😂😂
❤❤🎉🎉Turn to Jesus people, he died for your sins. Repent of what the New testament describes as sin. Believe the gospel get baptized and obey the teachings of Jesus. The gospel and the teachings of Jesus are documented in Matthew Mark Luke and John. Jesus is the only way to be saved, if you have faith in Jesus through your faith you will live by his teachings. God bless 🎉🎉
Sas is a certified racist smh
🃏 is all time offensively but defensively if you watch the game, it's like there's a layup line against him. He can play post defense but guards treat him like a cone. Defense doesn't get enough recognition in the league and that's why I believe The Greek Freak is the best player in the world but for this season SGA is the MVP.
Steven A smith i a baby cry baby, he don't understand stats, he unfortunately is racist. Look at all the videos he never liked Jokic . This guy all ready crown SGA THIS GUY DON'T UNDERSTAND JOKIC TOP 3 ALMOST IN EVERYTHING SAM (STEVEN A SMITH) IS A POS
İf Luka didn’t deserve it last year, there is noway sga deserves it now. Luka was wayy better last year than sga is now and he did not win it.
Jokic is destroying all these other guys they mentioned. If any of them other players had Jokic’s numbers they wouldn’t even be debating who the MVP is
Kenyon Martin is speaking FACTS!
Steven A.is on the low racist!
At some point you gotta ask yourself ..is it because of Jokic's skin collor.
Jokic fr got the best stat line since Wilt did his bs and these mfs still be questioning his ass
If jokic was black and not on a McDonald's make-a-wish team he'd be called the modern GOAT
Racisms gonna racism.
SAS NEEDS TO STOP IT… START A TEAM WHO YOU TAKIN
These fools always trying to act like any of these players would take any of these guys over Joker… Stop it
Kevin Durant needs to go to the nuggets. Then he can just hoop. And win
Goal posts move every year for joker to win it. It's ridiculous 😅.
Jokic should be getting his fifth mvp this year
Mccants came shooting and didn’t miss 🎯
Do these guys go into basketballreference and check efficiency stats at all? Have they even heard of the word efficiency? Nikola Jokic is gonna have the 2nd best if not the best efficient season of ALL TIME! All this while averaging a triple double and being top 3 i PPG, RPG, APG and possibly even SPG. Now tell me what value is…
This one of the dumbest takes ever!!! Is OKC supposed to go 82-0😂😂😂😂😂😂fph!!!!
Media be biased mvp should b in their hands!!!
Should b 25% media 25% players 25% coaches 25% fans!!!!!
What’s with the bodyguards pulling up behind SAS lol
Thank you Kenyon 😭 13:50
Ngl nick young alil slow 😂
SAS's real reason why he wants SGA to win which is the same reason why he NEVER voted for Jokic is that Jok isnt a "brother" and big tub of lard and we know he always say this when he talks about Jok…Similar thoughts we heared from a legendary hooper Big Perk who avg 5.5pts per game who said that majorita of voters are white and Jokic is a stat-padder, he has strong case here cos we know he doesnt watch the games and we heared what he thinks of >Jok when he watch games he has Jok in top5 centers all-time and top10 players all-time
NBA = Nikola's Basketball Association
NBA = Nikola's Basketball Association
NBA = Nikola's Basketball Association
NBA = Nikola's Basketball Association
They changing all the rules for Joker to keep winning MVP. Something they never did for MJ of Bron. NBA just needs to make him the logo and be done with it already.
NBA FUCK UP IT WHEN THEY GIVE crying EMBID THE MVP, if the Jokić won back then. SGA could won it the last year or even this year again. The injustice that NBA voters created when they gift crying Embid SGA paying the price now.
