Jokic is BRILLIANT player, REALLY MVP !!!!!
MVP
OKC-REFEREES COALITION! SGA FRAUD MVP, FT MERCHANT!
Jokić je dobar igrač🏀✅
So SGA ain’t play great either ? 32,10,8
After Chet Holmgren missed 2 penalty, Chet left the Chat.😂
❤❤❤ браво, МВП
against "well-rested" SGA they say.
its like a wrestling match. Real MVP
thats a double double double. 21-11 and 21-11
Obrnuo igricu!
They will give SGA an MVP but SGA in reality is not worthy to tie Jokic's shoes let alone being MVP over him!!!
Casual 40+ 20+ 5+. All while being double and triple teamed by THE best defensive team out there, just never giving up. Hats off to AG and the rest of the nuggets, but Joker… Incomparable…
Not one of the greatest centers, but one of the greatest all time.
No good. He struggled with assists. He was 6 short of meeting the ESPN`s aesthetic criteria for a 4x MVP requirement. 42-22-6 doesn`t make sense. And he shows up to games wearing shoes.
GOAT
Yeah, but can he dunk?
When Nikola Jokic is in his bag 3's, midrange, and scoring inside. There's nothing you can do as a defense. Because all he's going to do at the same time is get his teammates involved lol.
A decade of Jokic
You already know
Lakers in ??
If he don’t get MVP it’s gonna be so whack. Jokic will forever be goated
Bravo Jokara gazi dalje Super Srbine.
Ringispil Jokic ponovo radi.
Most Valuable Player-Coach
That and 1 down 14 then the 3 to bring it to 1 😤
GOAT
MVP + COACH OF THE YEAR 😊😅😂🎉
god
Probably the goat
JOKIC for MVP and it's not even close.
And why ESPN displaying Jokic with Lebron who already exited?
Real MVP
Jokic is clear the MVP. Always was. Stop the bias media glaze.
I could never bring myself to say Jokic is, or ever will be, better than Jordan….but DAMN he makes it hard!!!
