- first in the west (the more competitive conference) - averaging 26 pts, 12 rbs, 9 ast on 58.1 FG% - leads several advanced stats. Including VORP, BPM, Win shares, and PER - has played 69 of Denver’s current 72 games - Joker MVP 🃏🃏🃏🇷🇸🇷🇸🇷🇸
He's top 2 in every advanced stat this season(first in every one except DWS which he's 2nd) He's going to be 1 of 8 seasons to do this lebron x2 David Robinson KG, MJ, Kareem and jokic in his 2nd mvp season and this season all of those guys won mvp that season
The greatest players of all time, like MJ and Jordan, all have had MVPs robbed from them from voter fatigue. Jokic is simply in the same category as the best to have ever played, and therefore will have some MVPs given to others.
Ehh I mean if we’re being fair, Embiid probably woulda won it this year if he didn’t get hurt so now they both have stolen MVPs from one another… they’re even now 😂
@@DenverIn4 I actually don't know if Embiid would have won. After the all star game the refs stopped calling the same fouls that allowed him to have absurd numbers. He probably sees a dramatic drop in numbers the last 30% of the season and changes the narrative of the award.
He's from another galaxy man, it's not fair: His court vision, his handles... If you create a player, and max all his stats except athleticism, that is the Joker
@@alfasiger4178 He is better from Bird. Stronger,better passer,maybe the best touch in history,etc. Bird was a little better shooter.But Jokic makes ridiculous difficult shots in every game.
Nikola Jokic is the most skilled basketball player of all time. While his career accolades are not quite where the "goats" are, there has been nobody like him in the history of the league. His ability to control the game at this level is top tier. Truly, the definition of Unicorn. If he plays another 8 years with around the same statistics, wins a vouple championships, and another couple MVP's.... We'll be talking about the GOAT. Nikola Jokic
If we consider absolutely all elements of this game (missing only athleticism), Jokic is probably the most complete player today... pass (ALL kinds of passes), huge variety of mid range shots, 3pts shots, FTs, floaters, fadeaways (killer signature Sombor Shuffle), handles, steels, screens, off ball movement, footwork, rebounds, avg on blocks, vision & creativity... clutch as fuck... top level conditioning, not injury prone, such a complex and smart player, great personality, real role model, I can write all day long... goat C in my eyes. 🏀
I will never forget how everything started... Every year new questions & delusional media & fans. Who's better Nurkic or Jokic? KP or Jokic? KAT or Jokic? Boogie or Jokic? AD? All those stories, then "we have Zion now to beat him", blah blah... Embiid at the end? Joker beat them all and always came on top as real winner.
@winnerwinnerchickendinner8809 he does have defense watch the games he has high iq on that side of the court also blocks and steals don't make you the best defender in the league jokic is one of the best help defenders in the league quick hands and abuses his size especially when games start to matter you will see his defense rise drastically last year in the playoffs he had game winning steals and was forcing turnovers
I think it’s fair to say that the Joker is gonna get mvp, which is well deserved, but imagine if he got mvp last year, FOUR straight MVPs would’ve been insane
5:02 Go to your local rec center and try to throw a full court, opposite-block, inbound pass to someone. People don't seem to appreciate how insane that pass is
This is not basketball,this is art.It’s like classical music,poetry,artistic painting,classic novels.He is like Rembrandt,Marlon Brando,Dostoyevsky,Scorsese.If you are saying that what this gentleman is doing belonging to sport is could be only be figure skating.Combination on ballet,classical music,fashion,grace and artistic moves.He is looking more like Scott Hamilton,Eugenia Medvedeva and Katarina Witt then Stephen Curry,Kevin Durant andDamian Lillard.
The NBA media is mostly obsessed (even more so than any other sport) determining player's legacies beforehand and awarding/voting accordingly working backwards instead of just looking at the actual play and letting their careers play out however. Embiid was a worthy MVP winner, but it's ridiculous that "Jokic doesn't have the legacy to win 3 MVPs in a row" became an actual talking point to not vote for Jokic.
People who don't understand what MVP is compare stats and percentage! MVP is much more than that, he is that player who has been the gravity for the entire team,the way they are playing within the system! There are excellent players, but nobody has that gravity, every game as Joker does! I am watching other teams trying to emulate his game,passing more and playing selfless! His team is lucky to have him as he is lucky to have a team and a coach who are trusting the process!
Video from two seasons longer than anyone's entire career video + full of original, amazing, generational moves, unlike other stars, such as Embiid, with already seen dunks and falls to the floor every 2 seconds = and they still say how boring and basic his game is (media). Shameful for now BUT soon will be comical and harmful to their professionalism and basketball credibility...
Jokic is the 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025, 2026, 2027, 2028, 2030 MVP🤣🤣. It's a metal or clay made by men for God's sake. Nor that important to be honest🤣😎🙆🏆.
John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
It’s not just the numbers. Joker makes his team *better* while still putting up those numbers, not by ball hogging or stat padding. He constantly exits games early and leaves triple-doubles a rebound or assist short bc he focuses on what’s the game needs, not his numbers so his stats would actually be MORE insane if he wanted them to be. For example, he only put up FOUR POINTS vs the Pistons this season while every other great player ran it up to increase their averages. If you watch him play, you know he’s the truth and even if you don’t want him as MVP, just watch and enjoy his play while we can. He’s special, fam.
so this is a highlight? and to the best ever? this guy is so slow that he's below below-average big-man player of the past. NBA is dead. NBA is dead, and rules are not even properly implemented. More like high school boys playing on the street now.
