Perk said Jokic was stat padding. Perk said the Nuggets are not the best team in the West. Perk said the Lakers were going to win. Perk said the Lakers figured the Nuggets out after game 1. Perk said that the Lakers will tie the series after being down 0-2. Perk said the Lakers won't get swept. Whenever he says something against Denver, he is wrong!
Coz Perk is one of the stupidest analysts in ESPN. And the fact he's still on these shows prove that being stupid in America still can earn a lot of money.
If Perk said Heat would win (most probably they'll win against the Celtics unless there will be a historical 3-0 comeback) against the Nuggets in the finals, I think it's safe to say the Nuggets would win.
Because he doesnt read or look at the advanced stats. They pay him to say certain garbage and push certain players… a white dude, from Serbia, not one of these things. Until NOW, when everyone begrudgingly has to accept him. Tim Bontemps, for example, is hilarious with his takes on Jokic going back a while. Skip also has been entertaining with his half-slow take on jokic the past few years. 😅
He has inferiority complex against Whites. I don't see anyone who involves race in a conversation for skills like Perks did. Yet, you can't call him racist coz according to Blacks only Whites and other race can be labeled as racist not Blacks.
He's an indignant POS racist that loves white technology and has zero respect for all the luxuries that affords, when in reality he could be sleeping on a dirt floor~ That's just being REAL~
Surprised he climbed out from under the sidewalk slab today. Him, SAS & Bayless loathe the Nuggets and everything Mile High City. Listen to Perk whine!
They need to market smaller teams just as well as the big markets this is so great for the league that the nuggets are getting the respect they’ve earned and that parity is finally back in the nba
I mean if he wins AND statpads that mean he is simply way too good for everybody else, you cant statpad in a close game and you definitely cant statpad a tripple double in the playoffs lmao.
As a Denver fan I’d like to make a small suggestion to ESPN maybe if you cover every team like you covered the Lakers people would be aware of Denver and their players. Instead of doing what you normally do just a thought.
Nuggets are giving me Spurs vibes (Ellie and than Manu) They have a quiet Superstar Big (Joker/Timmy) They have an elite scoring Pg (Murray/Parker) They have a great 6th man in Brown (Ellie/Manu) They’ve drafted a stud in the middle of the 1st in Michael Porter Jr (Kawhi) Lastly, they’ve added a versatile F that makes them sneaky good in Aaron Gordon (Diaw)
People saying, "but every game was close!" I say but it was also a sweep. This tells me the Nuggets are the Hungriest team Ive ever seen. Down at half to come back and win tells me they are DOMINATING! Any other team in the league would have folded at half saying "take it easy boys, we'll get em at home." Jokic and Murray said NOPE we ending this right here right now.
Shout out to all the fantasy managers who knew about Jokic first. He was top 20 in fantasy almost anytime he got real minutes from almost day one of career. It was like, "Hold up, this kid getting a double double with 5 assists as a center and his % stats are crazy?!" Was fairly obvious he would be an All-Star, but his current status... wow.
Watched this live and I kept saying "Finally, Thank You!" to my tv set...Zach did us more justice in that 1 segment than anyone else in the national media has during our entire Jokic X Murray era
Good on Denver for being patient and not blowing it up when things got bad. They got the right coach and kept him, let guys like Murray and MPJ get through their injuries and filled their roster out the right way. I could see the nuggets winning multiple chips.
In 2019 I saw jokic put back to back clutch game winning shots on Kat and embiid's team and said he was the best center. Everyone was hating on my opinion for putting him over Joel or ad. Now here we are
Jokic not holding the ball for to long and yet gonna get his 10+ assist. He make it look so easy. I wish they will have an healthy squad and became the next dynasty in the future.
You are paying clowns to talk about something that hasn't been seen in the NBA since Wilt Chamberlain. I'm surprised that NBA allows you to do that, because it's not only disrespecting to Jokić, but also to Wilt.
I think everybody should be surprised that the guy who was back to back mvps the past 2 years prior to this, and was statistically better than both of those years this year, is a really really good player. Yeah, dumb question to ask a baller.
If Lebron retires I want espn to recognize Jokic made this man quit basketball. He realized denver built a wall in the west he aint gonna be able to overcome.
Dear mister jefferson, we need to correct you. It was not the jimmy butler who sent the nuggets home, it was the referee letting taj gibson fouling jokic on every position. Watch the game mister
Y’all change the tune so fast.. all yall “analysts” never said joker was a “top 3 player” the last 3 years he’s been the best in the world in my opinion just didn’t have a full team. And now that he does… he’s in the finals… funny. ESPN LOVE MOVING GOAL POSTS.
None of the players were surprised by Jokic because game recognizes game. The media had to ask everybody that stupid question, because the media was somehow surprised watching the 2x MVP for the first time. 🤦🏻♂️
They had the respect of unbiased reporters… analytics showed us who this team is. Jokic is a plus/minus monstar… in any lineup, he is a plus. Its just that ESPN refused to look at this, and that is why most of these journalists picked phoenix and the lakers… some even tried to justify the T-wolves in the first rd. Funny!
Nuggets have done the opposite of how the nba is. Never bought them self a championship. With a rent a player. They drafted and groomed them the right way.
uploaded 18 hours ago yet only 68,000 views. people complain about lakers and lebron yet when they finally discuss Jokic where is everyone? if this video was about Lebron it would have over 100k by now
Aye we got our Chip in 2020 they remembers that and it’s their turn now. Better not mess it up, Denver need this more than any team considering it’s their first time ever in a NBA FINALS
Embiid even said they build you up only to tear you down, now, now everyone loves Jokic loves Nuggests, that's not what is was just days ago, couple of days a go it'all "Miami vs Denver, the league's nightmare"
Nah nuggets have been good for years only casuals got surprised, last season was a fluke run by the warriors, if they where healthy they would’ve made the finals for sure, if you have for a while now you wouldn’t be surprised, Jokic is fr, Murray’s play in the bubble was no fluke these guys are the real deal
Hate it, but Perk is right. Its superstar endorsement, everyone in the NBA knows Jokic is a superstar. But you need testimony from the old guard to get the casuals on board.
Here let me summarize this real quick. “The media asks stupid questions. ‘Are you surprised about Joker?’ Anyone who has watched this dude isn’t surprised.” - Jeff “That’s not a stupid question. I didn’t watch him and now I look like an idiot.” - Perk
Are you sure because it seems like you have piano only wanted the Lakers to win so they can talk about the Lakers and LeBron and it sounds like they already have them winning next season
