" I'm actually paying, so I can bitch about it".. underated line there..
Well done good Sir
Most efficient offensive player of all time. Top 10 player of all time.
I really don't understand what kind of basketball you play when you have to talk to each other, pay attention, what is a man doing who has been doing the same thing for 5 years in a row? How are you not ashamed that, as professionals who do their work related to the NBA, you follow some players with such attention while reminding each other what is happening on another court in real time that neither MJ GOAT, nor Mamba, nor Kareem, nor Bird nor Magic, nor Duncan, nor Shaq …etc. they were nowhere near able to do!! I really don't believe that you call Wembi, SGA, Luka gods with 30 attempts at the basket and half-realization, while Joker has been writing history for a week and you are surprised after 5 days and again at most 3 minutes each in the shows to return to some mediocre prospects?? are NBA fans fools blind, stupid, no internet, tv, or are you just profit calling experts with 0% passion and fair play reporting?? it's ridiculous what's been happening for two or three seasons in a row and the thefts you've done for mvp awards, look where your friend Embiid is, God will bring everything to its place whether you want it or not!!! on an individual level, he will decapitate the basketball Mt Rushmore and you will not comment fairly on his personality and playing size, and MJ will remain a goat only with the help of the Bulls in relation to Joker's anonyms team mates, although he deserved it in any case, I am not saying that he is not…
so this was recorded before Jokic drops 55 on 18/23 FG + 5/6 3pt……..
is now AVERAGING 29-13-11 on 68.4 FG%
he is doing things i cant achieve playing 2k on the rookie level
The year of Shohei Ohtani and Nicola Jokic. Good to be alive.
The Joker is an all-time great player! 💯🏀🔥
Thats my 5 time MVP
I have not enjoyed basketball this much since watching prime Jordan while living in Chicago. Jokic is THE REAL DEAL.
Yet they continue talking about the old drama queen choker…even when he doesn t play
And then scores 55 points after this video
You put ESPN on… they speak about Bronny…go figure
He’s a treasure. And watching him on tv doesn’t even do him justice, Jokic live is beautiful to watch
I'm from Manaus/AM – Brazil… I pay for League Pass just to watch Jokic play… I went to bed at 2 AM today… hahaha
Nikola the goat jokic never getting credit for his mind blowing basketball IQ and playmaking , shot creation and defense. The greatest of this era and all people talk about is Lakers or lebron or the Knicks. Jokic should have 5 mvps awards and if not for a terrible front office would most likely have about 2-3 championships under his belt
Crazy people still take him for granted. He's one of the greatest modern-day players of all time.
I don’t even watch anything but local high school since the Lakers with Shaq and Kobe it’s just not the sport for me right now. This efficiency from Jokic has my attention, I don’t get why you’d watch the game and not be invested.
You know who's really even super gooder? Shai! He should win the MVP, no question.
Or lebron when he comes back.
I agree 100% with Brian Windhorst.
I wondered about Brian's Jokic takes for years. The league pass situation explains a lot. Welcome, Brian, to the Jokic club!
I wonder if Windhorst voted for LeFlop SGA
Wow! Blown away! I would have never guessed! Windy lives in Omaha, Nebraska. So many questions.
And yet the national media will try to diminish his accomplishments and pump someone else for MVP. And remember, he averages about 6 FTs a game, vs others (SGA?) who go to the line whenever an opponent casts a dirty look at them.
I swear he would have to score 200 points in a game to get MVP this year
I WAS AT THE GAME.. HE MADE IT LOOK SO EASY SCORING 55 PTS.. LOOKED LIKE HE WAS PLAYING VERSUS A JV HIGH SCHOOL BASKETBALL TEAM.. COULD OF BROKEN CHAMBERLAIN RECORD OF 100 pts IN A GAME.. I WON’T BE SURPRISED IF SCORES 100 pts IN A GAME BEFORE HE RETIRES.. AND HE DOESN’T LOOKS LIKE A BASKETBALL PLAYER
Windy spitting facts.
Was the rightful MVP last year. Was the rightful MVP when Embiid won his. All the advanced stats say he’s one of the three best players of all time. He hasn’t hunted rings like LeBron. An argument for #2 all time.
True words
…. AND THIS COMMENTARY CAME OUT BEFORE THE CLIPPERS GAME…..
First, thanks for the Jokic props, and second, thanks for talking briefly about the ridiculous viewing situation for Nuggets fans. I live in Denver, and between the preseason and now, I've had to watch the Nuggets on either FUBO (for Altitude Sports), the NBA network, ESPN, or NBC Sports. It's just flat nuts. I largely blame Stan Kroenke, the owner. He is a complete tightwad, and is constantly making deals to benefit himself and not the fans.
Thank you Brian…
Jokic is easily the best all-around player in the world, but I'll bet he doesn't win another MVP.
The giggling like a little school boy from Rich says it all 😆 unreal start to the season. As a fan of his, however, I’ll gladly trade another MVP award for his second championship. When it’s all said and done, it’ll be a travesty if he isn’t a 2+ time champion. I thank he can nab at least 3 before his career ends, good health provided.
After this game he is averaging 29 points and is first in rebounds and assists.
And he doesn’t travel nearly as much as the nba can’t dribble all stars around the league
Jokic's last two games: 45 ppg on 83/75/84 shooting splits. Insane. For the season? 29/13/11 on 68/42/86 splits with an effective field goal % of 74% (!!). And a PER of 39.4, the highest ever recorded. He's leading the league in rebounding and assists. The Nuggets are 9-2 and on pace for 67 wins. How in the world isn't he the frontrunner for MVP? None of the other candidates are doing anything close to what he's acheiving this year. I keep thinking his game can't reach even crazier heights and then he does things that are even more preposterous. Never seen anything like it.
I will comment to support this video because this man is saying what needs to be said. Everything else right now pales next to what Jokic is doing.
Joker drops 55 points in 34 minutes with 16 free throws. SGA gets 55 points in 45 minutes with 26 free throws in double OT.
People aren't talking about it, but Jokic is playing terrific defense as well. He's directing the defense and making real time switches between man and zone and back on single possessions. He was top 5 in steals last season and will be again this year.
genuinely one of the best interviews… so pure and authentic
Than you Windy!!!
This is the Joker's quiet response to that MVP they gave to Embiid because they were tired of him winning it.
LOL ESPN pays tens of millions of dollars for Stephen A. Shoutgasm and Pat Macafees' White Nationalist Power Hour… but cant drop $20 for Windhorst to watch Nuggets games…. seems legit
Eisan sucks
FACT!!!
This interview was before his 55 point game on 23 shots!
I PAY FOR LAUGUE PASS FROM INDIA, i only watch the nba and the nuggets , for just one player, and one player only, NJ15
I bought the NBA Season’s pass just so I could watch the Nuggets. To me this is absolutely the most fun form of basketball anywhere!!!!
Same as last year… and the league/media didn’t care and voted SGA as MVP
You aren’t a fan of basketball if you’re not a fan of Jokic
