  1. Nikola deserves the mvp award, but more important he needs the rings to finally make the writers choke.

  2. Because he's overrated. I don't hate Jokic, but dude ONLY PLAYS OFFENSE GREAT. DEFENSIVELY HE IS A LIABILITY. Gianni is better. Period, point blank. And it's not because he's WHITE. Name an all time big who is a defensive "liability " I'll wait. Pulling the race card is comical

  3. The evil and corrupt, hate what is good and true. This guy is real unselfish team player, and humble. So Great to watch, makes basketball a joy to Watch. This makes the hate even more sick.

  4. Anyone not liking him is just a hater. Don't have to be a Denver fan to appreciate him either. He's talented, humble, and has a heart of gold.

  5. The answer is actually easy. It's the same argument people say against joddan. People say the writers googly eyed jordan MVPS. The writers set the standards. Hell, you can say that kareem could've gotten more mvp but the writers couldn't stand the guy. The same guys who have handed lebron and SGA MVPS.

    Keep in mind, these are also the same writers who gave Nash an mvp vs Kobe. So yeah. There's a narrative out there and it's been on for a while.

  6. Yeah, last night was crazy for Jokic. Lead both teams in scoring, rebound, and assists. More than twice as many assists and rebound compared to his teammates.

  7. I really don’t know what it is, but it’s clear he isn’t getting the praise he deserves by the media, players much worse than him are getting more attention and praise than him which is just crazy.

    Djokovic is also hated and it seems like they can’t wait until he retires even g though he is the clear cut goat of tennis, at 38 years old he’s still reaching the semi finals or finals of every grand slam he plays in.

    The media needs to be contacted about this.

  8. If he was black and had a name like LeMontumboletuzzi Ukeboko they’d be erasing Wilt and he’d have 6 consecutive MVP’s. ESPN & FOX would have on air, collective 0rgasms

  9. "A conversation the writers don't feel comfortable having. I don't understand." -Skap

    MOUTH BREATHING LOUDLY INTO MICROPHONE "What do Derk Nowizki, Lurry Burd, Steve Nush and Neekula Jokech ha ha have in common? GUUUUHUUUU – Perk

  10. Pick any NBA player. If he is better than Jokic at one of points, assists, rebounds, FG%, eFG%, steals, double-doubles, and triple doubles, then Jokic is better than that player at the remaining 7 categories. You can't beat Jokic at 2 things at the same time.

  11. Skap, calm down with the Jokic praise, it's tiresome and you are not convincing anyone, because nobody cares about the greatness of regular season stats. Yes, Jokic is a top-5 basketball player right now, but we saw him fail, or at least not do something extraordinary, in a playoff series' Game 7 for two straight years. To be considered amongst the historically great players, he has to prove that he's a playoff riser or a guy that can give you 45 in do-or-die situation. James Harden was having these supposedly historically great regular season scoring outputs during his MVP years not too long ago. Was he as good as MJ? No. Personally, I trust Luka much more than Jokic in the playoffs.

  12. All these records in this days nba meaning absolut nothing, jokic, wembeyama, doncic, they would never have a chance to do even half of the points they are doing now in the 90s NBA lol

  13. Because he completely and utterly destroys every mainstream narrative that current day media and bron fanboys use to try to prop up this era and tear down Jordans and also forcing them to re evaluate box score stats without hypocrisy and also because he's on the Nuggets.

    Point 1.) Bron fans and maisntream media (filled with Bron fans) have been saying for a while that Jordan's era is full of unathletic plumbers like Larry Bird and such players can't survive in this era because bball fundamentals, skills, and all aren't enough, you need to be big strong and athletic. Yet here comes an unathletic European who is not fast at all completely dominating and he's less athletic and slower than Dominique, Drexler, Hakeem, Barkley, Ewing, etc. and that kills the "plumber narrative"

    Point 2.) Bron fans love to use box score all around stats and the fact that LeBron at this advanced age is putting up great numbers and we always use the rebuttal it is far easier to score and rack up stats in this era and even in 2010s it was easier than 80s/90s because defenses are limited due to rule changes but Bron fans don't want to accept that and just compare stats across eras. Now that Jokic is putting up much better all around box score numbers than prime LeBron, when this is bought up, all of a sudden they start using the "its easier to score now and defenses have gotten worse"… but then they'll have to flip flop and say that is not the case when talking about LeBron's stats at 40 compared to Jordans and LeBron having nice all around stats throughout 2010s. So it forces them to be hypocrites based on the situation

    Point 3.) He's a Nugget. If he was a Laker or Warrior or Celtic or Knick, he'd get all the attention and they'd give him his props and he'd probably have won 5 straight MVPs like he should've

  14. lol "most 30 point TD's shooting 70%" is simply an insane sentence that we get to say because of Jokic, it's like saying somebody has the record for doing the most pushups on the moon while saving a baby from a burning building

  15. They….??? Who is “They” ….maybe he’s not in LA it’s for sure… NBA power rankings it’s LA LAKERS and No one …. I’m in LA and it’s true…and if he was black… it’s also true

  16. Larry Bird also got a lot of hate for his skin color. Fortunately many of his haters grew up and acknowledged his greatness later in life

  17. My two favorite players of all time are Kobe Bryant and Nikola Jokić. Slap, I can’t put into words how much I appreciate the fact that you provide a platform/forum for us, as fans, to defend their legacies. Keep up the good fight, they need voices in the media who are willing to tell the truth.

  18. Unfortunately, since he isn't American, isn't flashy or outspoken , not a social influence he doesn'tget the attention he deserves. If he was American , staying current on social media or having any social media presence he would be the face of the league and would be shadowing other superstars in the league and the media

  19. Because of all the glazers like this channel has become. Shai has been playing with 3 starters out 😂 and showing up in clutch time to take over. Jokic has Aaron Gordon and Jamal w 2 all stars

  20. White, from Europe, from Eastern Europe, didn’t play college ball here, and was a 2nd rounder. He has 5 strikes against him from the American sports media 😂😂😂

  21. He is white: doesn't have hood mentality, doesn't corelate with it.
    For them basketball is a ticket from poverty, for him is just a job, in which he excels.
    Furthermore, his non-athleticism is almost mocking them, and their acting for highlights, putting basketball to the right place: it's just a sport, nothing more.
