The entire Nuggets team deserves a TON of credit aswell but just had to make this one because of some of the things people were saying during the year and how wrong they were.
Those people do not understand the game (a half of them at least) and you are wasting your saliva. The other half is there to entertain, create "narratives", so you are definitely wasting your time on them. They can't or won't see that Lakers did not loose, Nuggets won. The video is awesome, as usual, and we enjoy watching it! Joker seems to be on another level in play-off. Four games away from the ring.
Hope media keeps doing it, because it’s just more motivation for Denver & the Joker. Lucky for us, Perkins show no hope in intelligent takes in the future.
I don't care, he's not interesting. He could be the best basketball player for the next two decade, but unless he starts to develop a personality that's worth watching, I don't give a fuck.
Jokic making media look so foolish now…watching them all have to back track or pretend like they were just joking or trying to “hold him accountable” is truly hilarious. 🤣
Noone knew how good rest of nuggets were..76ers have pj tucker leave open..lakers dlo attack on defense. Ok Jokic is great but who do you exploit on nuggets?
Stat padding: Playing the game in a way to make yourself look good, while your team looses. This word does not apply to Jokić. Those stats are not padded. He is simply this good.
The reality may be that Jokic has already established his presence in the game to where he's drawing more defenders, so now it's time shift for assists for easier buckets. Not a shift for more stats. Jokic is not only talented player but a smart one as well.
@@j_atkinson it also has to do with the guys around him. I personally liked Monte Morris and Barton, but KCP and Brown are better shooters for Jokic to assist.
This is exactly what I’m saying. If Anthony Davis couldn’t stop him no one can. He’s about to breeze through the finals (sorry jimmy) but we are witnessing a top 10 player of all time enter his prime and potentially a new dynasty emerge. Similar to how Jordan was levels better than anyone in the league when he was in his prime that’s what we are seeing now with jokic.
Unfortunately it would be very hard doing it in Denver, with the small market, time zone and the TV deal the owners have. Him being there is a blessing and a curse, hopefully players gonna love coming since he's getting them all looking good and getting paid.
First they need to win the title and I agree thay Denver is the favourite to win it, but lets not cheer to early. Than they have to confirm their dominance next year and we can talk about a dynasty. If they do that you can come back here and gloat :) Edit: op indeed said potentially! My bad!
As a Lakers fan, I ain't even mad that they got swept. Watching Jokic play some of the greatest basketball ever was such a treat. Come Finals, win or lose, he totally deserves that playoffs MVP title.
@@jackl4laughs Then i stand corrected, I thought they only gave Finals MVP, old head here, i know MJ got 6, Shaq 3, Kobe 2 and so on, usually when u looks at awards the finals mvp are shown but u r right and i stand corrected, thanks for the data.
@@fungus_am0nguz644 honestly I didn't know they did it either until Jokic got that adorable little trophy the other day. I think it's really just because the NBA saw how the NHL named its trophies and they wanted to give the greats from generations past a place in today's game.
The most underrated stat of Jokic is his assist percentage is 58% in the whole playoffs. I don’t know any guard in the history of the sport have reached that percentage or even come close to it but that stat is so insane even as a center.
There are a lot of dummies in this world. The sooner you realize this, the easier it becomes to explain certain things. You literally need to watch one nuggets game to see how good jokic is. I watched him for the first time in the bubble when they were dueling the jazz, and I was sold on him and murray ever since then.
@@DraganDraws I was thinking that but didn't really want to say it. I feel like Perkins' opinions are clearly based on race even though he played the race card when Jokic was voted for MVP.
I never thought I'd fall in love with a big, slow and apparently unathletic player but damn he's so fun to watch ! The IQ, the clever passes, the efficiency and his unexplainable feathery touch around the rim makes him so fun to watch ! I hope he gets a ring this year.
If you like watching someone who understand the game better than most players or coaches you like Jokic. I would also say he is athletically gifted. He doesn't have burst athleticism, but he's big and strong. He's worked on his conditioning and his stamina is fantastic. But he's always been gifted in terms of dexterity, hand-eye coordination and reflexes. And he has mastered that odd sense of balance he has. He's not a leaper, he's not got the quickest feet or shiftest hips on defense, but he clearly has natural gifts you can't teach.
Jokic is a treat to watch. One of the dumbest narratives was by Kendrick Perkins accusing him of stat padding to get triple doubles lol. First you have to be able to make insane passes and that player needs to make the shot for the assist. If players could stat pad and make their numbers look better to make it seem like they're a great player everyone would do it. Ok no 3 time MVP that's cool he'll just get it in the conference finals. Not all media but alot of American media push players that look athletic and intimidating or not European ignoring jokic is athletic because how else would he dribble and score at the rim looking like Kyrie Irving. Sheesh go nuggets!
Its not hes protected by a complete team. Even off the bench nuggets went 8 deep and no defensive weakness. No dangelo russell etc. Braun only offensive weakness so he didnt play game 4
That shot over AD was spectacular... And there are people talking he is lucky.... But he make these off balance shots over and over again... I still remember that 3pt shot over Giannis in Serbia vs Greece..
@@togfanatic3781 much more. I remember watching Steph Curry deep threes video for the first time. I was thinking - "This is madness. Having a couple of shots from the logo is one thing but being able to constantly shoot with 30-60% of success is sublime". Now I have a similar feeling with Jokic. His buzz beater, over-the-head shots are at around 40-60%.
What people don't realise is that because of Jokic' importance to the team on both ends he's coached not to challenge shots until crunch time - the league leaders only average two ish blocks a game anyway. The rest are fouls, misses or, at worst, 2 points. He's amongst league leaders in steals, top three in deflections and has more game-winning blocks than anyone else in recent seasons.

@@RomnysGonzalez facts. To be fair, I have heard several of them just quickly concede that the Nuggets are likely to beat either team and then they just drop the subject. But as a diehard Nuggets fan, I don’t want to hear that! I hope it’s true but nothing is given. I’d much rather them breakdown the potential matchups like you said instead of just doing all this goofy apology your bs. It’s necessary but getting old. Let’s get back to basketball!
Top 30 with 10 more good years ahead of him, and the dude just keeps on getting better! If he keeps this up, I think top 10 is his lower limit when his career ends, and no upper limit
I love to see vids like this as a Joker fan. Nuggets fans been seeing what he is capable of. Now the world is seeing. Finally getting well deserved love.
Nick Wright and Perkins should be forced to take a leave of absence from TV for such a terrible obviously bias takes about Jokic, Nick and Perkins should be ashamed of themselves and evaluate why they have so much hate in their hearts.
It was a matter of time this team was going to come out. Injuries screwed them over last year... but now they got porter jr., murray healthy... added KCP, Aaron Gordon, Brown.... and Joker playing insane. They will be really hard to beat in the finals
Imagine how much motivation you must get with having Jokic on your side, playing more minutes than anyone, scoring like crazy and dishing you the perfect ball. I think morale has to do a lot with their insane winning.
As Jokic once said "a bucket makes one person happy, an assist makes 2 people happy." That's the definition of selflessness to feed your guys too, and enjoy their successes. I'm curious to see if the Nuggets get a LeBron type effect where some better players are willing to take a veteran minimum just to play with Jokic and get their stats up for bigger contracts when they leave.
Jokic is undeniably a phenomenal player, and his potential knows no bounds. As long as he remains healthy, there's no doubt he will continue to reach new heights.
As a salty lakers fan I don’t wanna but kinda lil tiny bit agree… I’m literally agreeing about nikola being good why is everyone here being so toxic and not understanding like morons it is very sick to see people go on 20 minute rampages😂
Don't cry about it. The better mindset is being honoured you lost to the best player, saying he isn't the best just means you lost to a bum. When LeBron beat my team all i said was "damn he really is the best" yknow what i mean
@@megacaptcha5894exactly. no shame in losing to the best player in the nba. Nikola Jokic is going to FORCE everyone to respect him, and to accept him as the alpha of the NBA. He doesn’t beg for respect, he FORCES you to respect him with his dominance. This is the start of a Championship run for the Nuggets that may last the next 5 years.
Look, I like the Lakers but I’m also Serb. It’s a tough call for me😅 but Denvers journey to the finals is just right out of some kind of movie. Hey man, they deserve it this year more than any other team!
Starded the video in the background while I was making dinner for my kid, but I stopped until I was done with it so I can really enjoy this one. I knew it was going to be a banger! Awesome as usual brother 👏👏👏
Imagine people talking 'bout who's the GOAT mention only LeBron and MJ, while here we have a dude, that is way fucking better than LeBron could've imagine. I wish all the health to Nikola, we seeing greantess here, a real one, not a bully who's force driving in paint or flopin
You saw Jokić's greatness when nobody else did! Such a great work you do. Everyone knew Jokić was great player, while you knew he was special. I'm from Serbia, therefore we know how big Serbian sports, and particularly basketball are. But Jokić, he is something else, even measured by the world sports history standards
Jamal Murray and Nikola Jokic are #1 and #2 all time for most improvement in points from the regular season to the playoffs. Literally the two biggest jumps from regular season to the playoffs for their careers in NBA history, and people were saying it doesnt translate to the playoffs. It was always a garbage take.
@@zemljajeravna5336 it was the same for the 2020 run as well. There's a reason the whole "bubble Jamal" came to be, he was just that guy in the bubble. This year he proved that he's that guy every year in the playoff, not just the bubble.
@@canhnguyen-uj6ox Yeah he proved that he is good, but he had bad games too, he realized he can't be the hero and switched to team basketball last series. Regular season can't compare with this playoffs as i said it was rehab season for him, we don't know what kinda full season he would have healthy because he improved as a player over those two seasons he had free to get healthy. So we are yet to see Murry's next season and how much he improved.
I think Jokic has hidden his true monster-level talent until these playoff games. I noticed that he played much more different in playoff games than these regular ones. Countless fans and opponent players realized that he is really an unstoppable monster who has no weaknesses. There is no wonder that many opponent coaches and players had a hard time to find his real weakness.
Joker has been doing this for at least 4 years already, The players knew, the commentators knew, the commentators just had their heads so far up the Laker's azz, it was hard to think straight.
I have enjoyed and loved your emails. I began watching Nicola Jokic during the 7 games Portland series. I couldn’t believe it. And no matter what he gets better all the time just as YOU prove. I wrote the lunatics of Kendrick Perkins and nick wright who of course should not be allowed to be commentators. The past playoff comment were a joke where no team ever one with one star alone and his individual numbers were great 31, 13 and 6 versus warriors and 30 12 and 5 in suns series. Thanks so much. To bad you and thinking basketball can’t be on TV.
un equipo que funciona como un reloj.. a la cabeza de Jokic, en base a efectividad y juego práctico... Enhorabuena por los denver nuggets... Nueva dinastía...
their arguments against Jokic are so inane and senseless. no objective criteria or contextual analysis whatsoever "he floats in and out of my top 5" "his teammates try to score when he gives them open shots and layups" "fans didn't vote for him in the all-star game" "he's weak defensively (even though every advanced stat says the complete opposite)" "he hasn't won a title (ignoring that he's been playing with g-leaguers the past 2 seasons)" they're not even grasping straws, they're grasping air that they **wish** were straws.
Jokić's most lasting achievement this season is exposing how little the NBA media understands their sport, even amongst former players. The man is so obviously dominant, so obviously the best player in the league, so obviously the greatest big man since Shaq, yet they all needed four rounds of playoffs to finally see it.
Mind blowing to me that people are now realizing how good jokic is, but then again after a long playoff run is when players finally start getting their respect
who do you compare this guy to? I got nothing. nobody can do anything with him. making the right play is innate and he's great at the pass or scoring. scores on all three levels. he's going to end up high on all time lists when it's all said and done
He is hard to compare to anybody. Best comp is probably a 7" 285 lb Luka. The only difference is Luka actually is athletic, despite the media narrative that he isn't. Different styles for sure, but they both have that Elite playmaking to go with their 3 level scoring. Both get knocked for their Defense, but tend to make big Defensive plays in the clutch. So it's a lot deeper than them both being white Euro guys.
Jokic is crazy talented, and also has high basketball IQ. It's no wonder why the team has the same players as when he started, they know he's a once in a generation talent
Nice video , would like to see a year by year highlights of Jokic Muray duo plays, i bet they would be visible line how they progressed and came to be one of best duos! keep up good work, Lets go Nuggets!
Watching Nick Wright and Kendrick Perkins' takes legitimately makes me angry The way they just completely disregard anything positive about him just to create false narratives makes my blood boil man. Grateful to have people like you who actually understand and watch his game instead of just spewing nonsense.
I been a nuggets fan my whole life. Knew for years they needed to polish some things with the new roster. This year about 20 games in I knew they were finals bound. What a great time to be a nuggets fan.
At this point anyone who doesn’t think he is the best player in the world is just either blind, hating or doesn’t understand what winning basketball is I get so much joy from watch him play I don’t understand how others don’t I’m an OKC fan btw
Glad you made this vid debunking Davis guarding Goatkic because the haters won't admit they were wrong. They had to take AD off of him in game one. And that crap about Rui stopping him after one quarter was silly. Unlike Embiid, Goatkic will adjust to what the defense throws at him.
The only reason why Jokic doesn't get picked high in the All-Star games is because he's a ball dominant center that needs the ball to run through him to be most effective and most other all-stars especially guards and Lebron needs / wants the ball to run through them.
Because All-Star games are a joke, a media frenzy of flashy dunks and crazy handles. It's all for entertainment value, not to see optimized, effective basketball. Jokic isn't flashy, except some of his passes, he simply does exceptionally well all those things that are needed to win in basketball. All-Star games are a showcase for guys like Morant and Tatum (no disrespect to either, I think they are phenomenal players) to show off their crazy athleticism, not a place to play good basketball.
He has by far the most touches in the league, but is not ball dominant player such as Harden, Luka, Trey etc Murray has the ball much longer in his hands. They didn't pick him because LBJ doesn't like him ever since he clowned him in the previous All Stars game with the out of bounds, when all players in attendance were laughing at LBJ, and LeFlop is in love with himself for a long time.
This is what Jokic thinks of all-star game, a game where u should goof around and entertain basketball fans since no one is taking the game seriously, other players think of all-star game as a marketing, flashy dunks and long range 3's is all there is to make themselves look good...
The entire Nuggets team deserves a TON of credit aswell but just had to make this one because of some of the things people were saying during the year and how wrong they were.

@@RomnysGonzalez ESPN and the media is now using the excuse “We’re going to be covering them a lot more in a week when they are in the finals we have to set aside the time now to talk about Lebron and the lakers after they just got swept.” It’s a joke 😂
@@RomnysGonzalez facts. To be fair, I have heard several of them just quickly concede that the Nuggets are likely to beat either team and then they just drop the subject. But as a diehard Nuggets fan, I don’t want to hear that! I hope it’s true but nothing is given. I’d much rather them breakdown the potential matchups like you said instead of just doing all this goofy apology your bs. It’s necessary but getting old. Let’s get back to basketball!
Malone didn’t do anything different than Phil Jackson used to do. Lobbying during press conferences & advocating. It’s called being smart.😂
Top 30 with 10 more good years ahead of him, and the dude just keeps on getting better!
If he keeps this up, I think top 10 is his lower limit when his career ends, and no upper limit
3:20 JAMAL LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOO. Looked at the LAL bench like. "Yea...You guys getting cooked. This series is over"
Jemal was like that is my guy 😂
Everybody said i was dumb at the beginning of the season when i said nuggets are gonna make the finals
I’ve been telling people for 3 years he’s probably the best player in the league but people were acting like I was the crazy one
Don't take it to heart, people tend to think that whoever agrees with them is the smart person.
And the world is full of stupidity.
The dumb ones are the delusional Fakers fantards thinking they have a chance against Jokic the real MVP and future GOAT.
@@firstnamelastname1566 maybe not goat but, NIkola not seen since Wilt Jokic will still be a great title
For being honest with you, i would never think about that prediction
I love to see vids like this as a Joker fan. Nuggets fans been seeing what he is capable of. Now the world is seeing. Finally getting well deserved love.
The fact that people, honestly believe that Embiid has ever been comparable to Jokic, is comedic at best and down right tragic at worst.
Some of the best nuggets coverage outside of denver media! Thanks 6man for adopting Jokic so early!
Been here since Scooby ,this man praised Joker for years...
It's why I keep coming back, 6man has been ahead of the curve.
hes a real one
I’m a Laker fan but I’ve always liked Joker now in the worlds of the Black Mamba jobs not finish yet Bring That Championship Joker I BELIEVE IN YOU!
Nick Wright and Perkins should be forced to take a leave of absence from TV for such a terrible obviously bias takes about Jokic, Nick and Perkins should be ashamed of themselves and evaluate why they have so much hate in their hearts.
gingers and chosenites hating, what else is new.
It was a matter of time this team was going to come out. Injuries screwed them over last year... but now they got porter jr., murray healthy... added KCP, Aaron Gordon, Brown.... and Joker playing insane. They will be really hard to beat in the finals
Basketball God already made this championship team. No need for the finals.
Imagine how much motivation you must get with having Jokic on your side, playing more minutes than anyone, scoring like crazy and dishing you the perfect ball. I think morale has to do a lot with their insane winning.
As Jokic once said "a bucket makes one person happy, an assist makes 2 people happy." That's the definition of selflessness to feed your guys too, and enjoy their successes.
I'm curious to see if the Nuggets get a LeBron type effect where some better players are willing to take a veteran minimum just to play with Jokic and get their stats up for bigger contracts when they leave.
I would also add that mainstream sports media and talking heads sleeping on them and criticizing Jokic adds fuel to the Nuggets' fire.
Jokic is undeniably a phenomenal player, and his potential knows no bounds. As long as he remains healthy, there's no doubt he will continue to reach new heights.
...and that's SCARY
The way he plays he doesn't take big hits, and he's built like a bull even though he doesn't look it, so he should be healthy for a long time.
His playstyle may help keep him healthy. His relative lack of athleticism may have been a blessing in disguise.
As a salty lakers fan I don’t wanna but kinda lil tiny bit agree…
I’m literally agreeing about nikola being good why is everyone here being so toxic and not understanding like morons it is very sick to see people go on 20 minute rampages😂
Lakers suck
Don't cry about it. The better mindset is being honoured you lost to the best player, saying he isn't the best just means you lost to a bum. When LeBron beat my team all i said was "damn he really is the best" yknow what i mean
@@megacaptcha5894exactly. no shame in losing to the best player in the nba.
Nikola Jokic is going to FORCE everyone to respect him, and to accept him as the alpha of the NBA.
He doesn’t beg for respect, he FORCES you to respect him with his dominance.
This is the start of a Championship run for the Nuggets that may last the next 5 years.
Look, I like the Lakers but I’m also Serb. It’s a tough call for me😅 but Denvers journey to the finals is just right out of some kind of movie. Hey man, they deserve it this year more than any other team!
Lakers in 4 happened, they are out in 4.
Starded the video in the background while I was making dinner for my kid, but I stopped until I was done with it so I can really enjoy this one. I knew it was going to be a banger! Awesome as usual brother 👏👏👏
Imagine people talking 'bout who's the GOAT mention only LeBron and MJ, while here we have a dude, that is way fucking better than LeBron could've imagine. I wish all the health to Nikola, we seeing greantess here, a real one, not a bully who's force driving in paint or flopin
You saw Jokić's greatness when nobody else did! Such a great work you do. Everyone knew Jokić was great player, while you knew he was special. I'm from Serbia, therefore we know how big Serbian sports, and particularly basketball are. But Jokić, he is something else, even measured by the world sports history standards
Jokic is Mocart of basketball!
Jamal Murray and Nikola Jokic are #1 and #2 all time for most improvement in points from the regular season to the playoffs.
Literally the two biggest jumps from regular season to the playoffs for their careers in NBA history, and people were saying it doesnt translate to the playoffs.
It was always a garbage take.
This was rehab season for Jemal Murry, his first half of the season was really bad.
@@zemljajeravna5336 These aren't just this year's stats though. These are career averages.
@@zemljajeravna5336 it was the same for the 2020 run as well. There's a reason the whole "bubble Jamal" came to be, he was just that guy in the bubble. This year he proved that he's that guy every year in the playoff, not just the bubble.
@@canhnguyen-uj6ox Yeah he proved that he is good, but he had bad games too, he realized he can't be the hero and switched to team basketball last series. Regular season can't compare with this playoffs as i said it was rehab season for him, we don't know what kinda full season he would have healthy because he improved as a player over those two seasons he had free to get healthy. So we are yet to see Murry's next season and how much he improved.
If he doesn't hang it and go chill in his stable at 30 years of age, he's going to rewrite basketball history.
He probably will retire after the end of his contract
@@melonlabe lol dont say that
I won't be shocked if he retire immediately if they win a championship this year. 😂 More time for his horse
Okay, okay. I give up. He IS one of the great players of all time.
I think Jokic has hidden his true monster-level talent until these playoff games. I noticed that he played much more different in playoff games than these regular ones. Countless fans and opponent players realized that he is really an unstoppable monster who has no weaknesses. There is no wonder that many opponent coaches and players had a hard time to find his real weakness.
Joker has been doing this for at least 4 years already, The players knew, the commentators knew, the commentators just had their heads so far up the Laker's azz, it was hard to think straight.
I don't think so. He's regressed from his regular season numbers.
@@chaiinspace2 only in 2pt shooting efficiency, his 3pt% is up and his raw numbers are up across the board
his weakness is his horses😂
I have enjoyed and loved your emails. I began watching Nicola Jokic during the 7 games Portland series. I couldn’t believe it. And no matter what he gets better all the time just as YOU prove. I wrote the lunatics of Kendrick Perkins and nick wright who of course should not be allowed to be commentators. The past playoff comment were a joke where no team ever one with one star alone and his individual numbers were great 31, 13 and 6 versus warriors and 30 12 and 5 in suns series. Thanks so much. To bad you and thinking basketball can’t be on TV.
Who the hell thought giving Kendrick Perkins a job was a good idea?
He was actually decent when he started he saw how easy it was to take the bayless and sas route and just say dumb ass shit so people talk about it
Get Perkins off the air. .. he is either not knowledgeable or he has another reason why he dislikes admitting Jokic is Great
6Man, hope that you are enjoying this run as much as we are.
A good hero needs a good villain. Well done Lakers.
Finally some respect for Big Joker, great vid 6man!
I wouldn't be surprised if we saw Max, Kendrick Perkins, Nick Wright, Skip, and Shannon pull up in a little clown car and step out one at a time!🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
JOKER 🃏 in the NBA THE NEW Bruce lee be like 💧 King 🤴 LoL MVP
Few years back we belived we was waiting for his first MVP, it is amaizing to watch! Thanks for great video man!
Jokic! 🔥💯
Agustin!
By far the best video on this issue. Thank you.
I love the theory that only after 8 or 9 assists does Jokic start searching for passes, as if he wasn’t looking for all those assists already😂🤡💀
Great video! Jokic is in his own class at the moment. To bad big media does not care about anything but Lakers...
un equipo que funciona como un reloj.. a la cabeza de Jokic, en base a efectividad y juego práctico... Enhorabuena por los denver nuggets... Nueva dinastía...
respect to this vid as a nuggets fan and a nba fan also wanted to add in his 7 season he has only missed 20-30 games since
their arguments against Jokic are so inane and senseless. no objective criteria or contextual analysis whatsoever
"he floats in and out of my top 5"
"his teammates try to score when he gives them open shots and layups"
"fans didn't vote for him in the all-star game"
"he's weak defensively (even though every advanced stat says the complete opposite)"
"he hasn't won a title (ignoring that he's been playing with g-leaguers the past 2 seasons)"
they're not even grasping straws, they're grasping air that they **wish** were straws.
in the MVP conversation they threw statistics out of the window because no point in comparing them when Jokic is leading in every single category... 😂
brother, you just spoke out of my heart - thank you!
Jokić's most lasting achievement this season is exposing how little the NBA media understands their sport, even amongst former players. The man is so obviously dominant, so obviously the best player in the league, so obviously the greatest big man since Shaq, yet they all needed four rounds of playoffs to finally see it.
Mind blowing to me that people are now realizing how good jokic is, but then again after a long playoff run is when players finally start getting their respect
Joker has exposed a lot of people as the fools they really are.
Love your vids! Keep it up ... Never enough Jok videos :))
I just knew after that sham MVP award he was going to show everyone who he is, an absolute juggernaut 🇷🇸❤️ sweep in the finals too 🧹
This was very well put together and hit on all the key points of the nay sayers.
Great Video
You're getting better and better 6, good for you!
Next season until New Year I predict a 100 000 subscribers bonanza!!!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ video. Thanks for the analysis and highlighting this year's Jokic playoff run
who do you compare this guy to? I got nothing. nobody can do anything with him. making the right play is innate and he's great at the pass or scoring. scores on all three levels. he's going to end up high on all time lists when it's all said and done
He is hard to compare to anybody.
Best comp is probably a 7" 285 lb Luka.
The only difference is Luka actually is athletic, despite the media narrative that he isn't.
Different styles for sure, but they both have that Elite playmaking to go with their 3 level scoring.
Both get knocked for their Defense, but tend to make big Defensive plays in the clutch.
So it's a lot deeper than them both being white Euro guys.
Larry legend
Arvydas Sabonis?
Damn, this guy looks strong.
He wants the ring, just as the whole Nuggets team! Who cares about the rest!
THE REAL MVP
@6Man Thank you brother for these beautiful breakdowns. It's a real treat to watch them.
Jokic is crazy talented, and also has high basketball IQ. It's no wonder why the team has the same players as when he started, they know he's a once in a generation talent
silence is golden as we say in Serbia.
If the media would get back to reporting on stars and stop trying to make them they would not look so bad all the time.
Calling Jokic a stat padder is like calling Lebron a 3 point sniper
He's like the final form of a basketball center
If The Nuggets won the championship this year I want bum ass Perkins to make an apology video to Jokic.
Nice video , would like to see a year by year highlights of Jokic Muray duo plays, i bet they would be visible line how they progressed and came to be one of best duos! keep up good work, Lets go Nuggets!
Great video all round, much props my guy
Kendrik Perkins is one of the biggest clowns in sport commentary.🤡🤡🤡
Watching Nick Wright and Kendrick Perkins' takes legitimately makes me angry
The way they just completely disregard anything positive about him just to create false narratives makes my blood boil man. Grateful to have people like you who actually understand and watch his game instead of just spewing nonsense.
Dont pay any attention to the juice media, that was your first mistake.
You are real deal. Everyone is high on Jok now, but you praised him for years now. Great vid as always.
I been a nuggets fan my whole life. Knew for years they needed to polish some things with the new roster. This year about 20 games in I knew they were finals bound. What a great time to be a nuggets fan.
ppl need Rodman right now to stop Jokic like he did to Shaq
At this point anyone who doesn’t think he is the best player in the world is just either blind, hating or doesn’t understand what winning basketball is I get so much joy from watch him play I don’t understand how others don’t I’m an OKC fan btw
Love you man, great job like always 👋🇷🇸
He's just so fun to watch. ANYTHING can happen at ANY TIME when he has the ball. He is so unpredictable and unique and my god he is entertaining.
Glad you made this vid debunking Davis guarding Goatkic because the haters won't admit they were wrong. They had to take AD off of him in game one. And that crap about Rui stopping him after one quarter was silly. Unlike Embiid, Goatkic will adjust to what the defense throws at him.
great content as always
Some of the best analysis I’ve seen so far on this subject. I credit you for the production quality and straight facts. 👏
great highlights. great take!
Veliki Nikola 🤗
Nikola Tesla!! I mean Jokic. Both are geniuses
Best NBA content on TH-cam at the moment undoubtedly mate 🔥 loving it
too kind, appreciate it lad 🤞
Great analysis.
Also Landale was about the only resistance he's had
that's what I said, Landale played the best defense on Joker from all of them in these playoffs
The only reason why Jokic doesn't get picked high in the All-Star games is because he's a ball dominant center that needs the ball to run through him to be most effective and most other all-stars especially guards and Lebron needs / wants the ball to run through them.
Also, because everyone knows he doesn't care for that event.
Because All-Star games are a joke, a media frenzy of flashy dunks and crazy handles. It's all for entertainment value, not to see optimized, effective basketball. Jokic isn't flashy, except some of his passes, he simply does exceptionally well all those things that are needed to win in basketball. All-Star games are a showcase for guys like Morant and Tatum (no disrespect to either, I think they are phenomenal players) to show off their crazy athleticism, not a place to play good basketball.
He has by far the most touches in the league, but is not ball dominant player such as Harden, Luka, Trey etc
Murray has the ball much longer in his hands.
They didn't pick him because LBJ doesn't like him ever since he clowned him in the previous All Stars game with the out of bounds, when all players in attendance were laughing at LBJ, and LeFlop is in love with himself for a long time.
This is what Jokic thinks of all-star game, a game where u should goof around and entertain basketball fans since no one is taking the game seriously, other players think of all-star game as a marketing, flashy dunks and long range 3's is all there is to make themselves look good...
