They said that Luka wasn’t going to be good enough for the NBA and now he’s the best in his class, and the other two have won back to back mvps.

[@3steban427]

I see what you mean but you're a little off base: They don't hate the foreign players, they just hate Jokic for some reason. Luka was made the darling of the league as rookie. He was even the betting favorite to win MVP before last season started if I remember correctly. I'm not mad about that, but it's really confusing that the talking heads in the media think Luka is the next big thing while ignoring Jokic. 8 years after Jokic was drafted people making money to talk on TV can't say his (2 syllable) name right. And Giannis has been known by his first name for about 5 years, most folks think he's the best player in the league right now.

It is interesting that Jokic when he was on the court the nuggets had an extremely good defensive rating and off the court they were a below average defensive team. His on/off is incredible. The comments that Draymind Green says about Jokic. Has he said those comments about anyone else. Finally, I love your point about other great who did not win championships, ie Charles Barkley. Larry Bird played with Kevin Mchale, Robert Parish and DJ, allstars. Magic with Kareem and James Worthy. Jordan with Pippen. Shawn with Kobe. Tim Duncan with Tony Parker and Manu Genobli. Golden State, with KlaybThompson, Draymind Green and for two years Kevin Durant, When and I hope they Michael Porter and Jamaal Murray and if they were at least as good as they were when Denver made the conference finals they still are not as good as any of the second best players on the LakersC Celtics, Bulls, San Antonio and Golden State.

I was doing school work and this video started playing and I literally had to stop and see when this was posted because I was like what the fuck is this guy talking about 😂😂😂

[@boatsanhs9709]

That guy literally shouldn’t be allowed to talk sports

This dude, whoever he is, should be pals with Kendrick Perkins.

I coulda sworn I’ve seen this video before but then I remembered Kenny did a video roasting this dude too. Thought I was in the twilight zone for a far minute

[@Quickslvr_Gaming]

Can we come back to this take?

[@Gamer_Cafe]

To add to your arguments what makes Jokic special is his passing. Pretty sure it's been proven that pass first players can play in damn near any offense. I think you stick him on any team and he will show out

[@rollingpaper-x2u]

Imagine saying you would rather have booker over jokic now lol

[@nikosclips.]

An MVP not being a top 10 player is laughable

[@bradyogden8308]

Man it’s fans too, I see international players get so much unwarranted hate it’s ridiculous

[@jrthehunter4309]

11:28 "I don't think he can take the nuggets over the top as the best player in a championship team" Literally only 5 current players in this generation have proven that they can do that. LeBron, Curry, Kawhi, Giannis, and KD.

[@CiCLoDoL]

KD? Anyone would win on that Warriors team.

[@jrthehunter4309]

@@CiCLoDoL I was just saying KD to be nice 😂. Didn't want to open that bag of worms

[@ЛукаТ-э3э]

All of them had the better 2nd and 3rd best player

[@JoelKleppinger]

@@ЛукаТ-э3э Not sure I understand you correctly. LeBron and Curry faced each other twice without KD, Finals score 1-1. Kyrie was likely better than Klay/Draymond, but both the Warriors were much better than Kevin Love. So what does that say about the 2nd and 3rd best player?

[@grief6052]

4*, KD isnt well rounded enough for a carry like that

[@michaelruiz8076]

11:28 *sips tea* this has aged well

[@michaelmcphee2006]

1) Of course you build your offence around Jokic, because he at least a top 5 offensive engine in the league. But he's also great when you are running the ball through someone else. Case in point; against Utah. Murray was going off so the offence was often him deuling with Mitchell. Mitchell was actually a bit better but the difference was Jokic was there to be the quiet difference maker, especially stepping up in the final game when Jamal was burnt out. 2) He's a defensive liability against GSW, and to be honest they are always going to be a bad match up. But he's turned into an above average defender against most teams. 3) I will accept the opinion that Luka or Embiid is better (I also will accept the opposite), but not Jimmy, and definitely not Booker. Someone like Booker is replaceable with any other scorer. There is no replacement for Jokic.

[@Yorozuya4ever]

Love this insight

[@grief6052]

Idk if embiid is better than jokic honestly i just cant see it, and even against GSW he did well enough to not be considered a “liability” in defense

[@michaelmcphee2006]

@@grief6052 I don't think Embiid is better than him either, I just think its an acceptable opinion.

Damn this take aged horribly. Jokic won as the first option. The idiots who runnpodcasts

Jokic carried the nuggets to play off appearance booker has not done that before cp3 came Jokic scored 37 6 8 in game 4 And scored 30 19 8 in game 5 Book scored 19 pts in game 6 and 11 in game 7

[@janitorialjargon2411]

I just don't understand why people can't talk about Jokic the right way. He's proven that he is dangerous just by himself and given that he's accomplished so much without his teammates really highlights how scary this Nuggets team could really be.

[@MrNoodle223]

Algorithm brought me here 😅. Wonder if that guy is still saying that nonsense

[@richardlawrence6497]

Bwahahaha.....where's that guy now. I'll take a Jokic TD over Bookers 12 pts all day, any day

[@NateMcCoy1194]

I swear athletes who are not from here are either slept on or disrespected. Fox and ESPN does it with Giannis, they’ve done it with Luka on occasion, Jokic is probably the most disrespected by KZbinrs and Mainstream Sports Media.

[@SpeedHomeAttack]

This just proves that not everyone needs a show/podcast. All because you watch sports doesn’t make you a sports analyst, especially not a good one. The main media is filled with so many people that are garbage and extremely biased. I don’t know what it is with the media hating on European players so much.

[@HobbesJnr]

I can't wait for Jokic with a healthy squad to put up insane numbers and get 5th in MVP voting purely from voter fatigue Media disrespect for Jokic is beyond confusing.
