It’s because guys like Jokic, Luka destroy the “bigger, stronger, faster” narrative the current NBA likes to put forward. They wanna pretend this is the greatest era of NBA athletically. But when two of the most un-athletic guys are 2 of the top 3 players in the NBA this year…it kills that narrative…and they can’t stand it.

Man how I wish for Jokic to win it all again this year. Not just because he's such a great player, not just because he seems to really be a different person than all these divas and brats, but especially to shut all the haters up once and for all.
Just the way Jokic is able to elevate every other teammate on the court is absolutely stunning. I'm constantly shocked by the way he orchestrates everything. Not to mention those crazy passes.
Exactly passing up shots so MPJ can average 16ppg, Aaron Gordon can averaged 13ppg, KCP can average 10ppg, Jamal can averaged 21ppg then he gets the bench players involved
That is correct shae just like Luka or kyrie or any other pure scorer I take Edwards than shae to be honest that kid is a beast 😂😂😂 shae is pure scorer like Edwards nothing especial about it of course there team is winning but the joker is playing different kind of basketball! This guy is painter painting every bucket by his teammates
I just don't understand the Jokic hate. Nobody can do what he does. Only a select few players in NBA history impact the game like he does. That's why the Nuggets are worried about the "non Jokic minutes". His presence changes the entire game. He is the best player in the world. That has to mean something. Nobody can be the best in the world at something and not go down as one of the greats. It is a shame we have to tear down a player who exhibits the traits Jokic does on and off the court. No scandals, humble, cares about team play, and most importantly... His horses.

If anything, Jokic is actually UNDERRATED. He's even better than we think. He's doing things that we'll look back in 20yrs and wonder how this was even possible.
For real, I also have high hopes for Wemby to become Jokic 2.0, we've seen flashes of Jokic type passes from him and I expect that part of his game to evolve nicely over the years.
What I don't understand is why are people in the media like Stephen A and clowns like that who are obviously biased to who they like why do they get a vote for something like NBA MVP?
When Minnesota was up 2-0 and everyone was saying it’s gonna be a sweep, I told everyone pump the brakes and let’s see what happens because this series is far from over.
They looked so bad in the Lakers series and in the first two games, that I thought it would be a sweep too. Thank God Malone and Jokic rallied the team.
@@vineelkesavarapu5736The Lakers series they looked so bad (won on last moments) that I genuinely thought they would get swept. Now they're looking like last year's Nuggets
i still just love how it was “jokic shouldn’t get another mvp bc he hasn’t had playoff success” straight into “embiid/sga deserves mvp,” neither of which has playoff success not like playoff success should matter for REGULAR SEASON MVP, but that was the EXACT reasoning the media gave for why jokic shouldn’t get another mvp
They literally can’t understand what they are watching. Jokic is one of one. He actually does what Lebron thinks he does. He makes the right play every time. If you know what to actually look for, it’s a beautiful game that man is playing
shaq doesnt like the fact that another big man has the same amount of mvps as him and is threatening his position on the big man hierarchy. Jokic is simply the best player this whole decade and shows no signs of stopping
Crazy how being the first seed, averaging crazy numbers, and being the focal point of your entire team was never mentioned by the media when Embiid won his MVP last year. The Nuggets were the undisputed first seed while the Sixers were a 3rd seed. The Nuggets practically tied for the first seed in a stacked western conference yet now they wanna make it about who has the first seed? I like Shai, but the amount of glazing he gets is ridiculous. Ja Morant was tearing up the league without even close to the help Shai has and nobody was talking about him in the MVP conversation. Replace Shai with any star point guard and they are just as good, if not better. Replace Jokic with any star center in the league and this team is a 6th seed at best.
0:50-0:57 Not just the media, many anti-Jokic basketball fans too have just been waiting for Jokic to fail and discredit all previous career accomplishments and his position as world's best player after game 2. And now look where Denver's at -- tied the series with +2 more points scored overall and -5 fewer free throws overall than Minnesota. These teams are virtually equal and this series could go 7 games with either one being the winner. After game 2 I said "Denver was still in Lakers mode and did not come ready for the chess match and physical intensity that Minnesota came with. Now we see if Jokic and Mike Malone can execute a counter-strategy the next 2 games in Minnesota." And they did. Now we wait to see if Minnesota has any more answers for Denver's offense and the championship DNA required to turn a series momentum back around like Denver just did.
If joker was black he’d be compared to Kareem in every aspect. I hate to race bait but any other black player with jokers numbers would be the next face of the nba with his now 3rd mvp. Maybe they hate cuz he’s white maybe they hate cuz he’s European or they just hate his game who knows. Notice how they don’t even mention luka either when he was in the runner ups as well. they barely gave joker credit after winning a chip, only because they had to, and aren’t giving him credit now. This just makes me want Denver to win more so we can watch the media swallow it again.
Remember Tim Duncan? He was brown but got the same treatment that Jocic is now getting, too boring. I too am tempted to think it bcuz the Joker is white and european but on further review, I believe it comes down to the the type of fans following the NBA. Casual, young fans who lionise the dunk the after dunk taunt, the no-defense brand of basketball being touted by the league, might well see Jocic as boring. On toh, the basketball aficionado will appreciate the subtleties of his game, his ability to orchestrate, his soft touch, ability rebound when he can barely jump over a credit card. SAS, Perkins, Shaq et al, they cater to the previous crowd. The last crowd are capable of discerning the truth of the matter: the Joler is a sublime athlete/ball player who has his priorities in life well organized. HOF right now.
@@magicmirror6729or maybe the woke people see that wyte people are mostly the face of everything and.are depicted as gods in movies and comics,wrestling,football.

I'll wait. Remember when you point fingers there's always 3 pointing back at yourself.
Even if Denver doesn’t win the series joker has exposed the media for what they are. The racial bias against joker and Luka is so obvious at this point it’s embarrassing for them. The moment joker showed any weakness and had an off game they pounced
Racial bias? Like all the super heroes being the same color? Like how yall claim Em is the rapgod & Elvis king of Rock? How about your Hulk Hogans,Stone Colds,John Cenas? It's time to look in the mirror kid. Fix your brain & your eye sight.
That’s what I thought, This era and style of play honestly doesn’t even need to favour athleticism. doesn’t take a lot of athletic ability to sit on the perimeter and pop 3s most of the game.
The man is just GOOD!! His game IQ is simply off the charts. His vision on court is second to none. His passes are always on point. And that rainbow, fade-away 3 is just a thing of beauty!!
Jokic has the brain, it is not just the numbers, he is smart, humble and get the whole team working together. He is not just a leader, but more, he is a companion, inspiration
People really think Shai deserved it because he averaged 5 more points on the 1 seed as if Jokic didn’t average a million more rebounds and assists and the Nuggets and Thunder had identical records
Trying to diminish the Wolves defense to weaken Jokic’s incredible ability is such a weak move. They’re literally the number 1 rated defense in the league. It’s so easy to both acknowledge the Wolves’ defense, and Jokic’s elevation of the Nuggets’ offense and come to the conclusion that Denver was just better for these last two games. The NBA is obsessed with weakening teams and players’ positions to hand wave away good performances from unfavorable teams and players.
Funny cause it's as if you don't see the favoritism of the nuggets. They're being pushed as the face of the NBA. This nba stuff is nothing more than WWE its all entertainment and scripts.
Its sad, Nikola Jokic just isn't the guy the NBA media wants to be the best player, and they are looking for every single reason possible to discredit the guy. Jokic is the best basketball player in the world, and there is no question about it.
The amount of people who were mad horny, wet and rock hard seeing Jokic down 0-2 like celebrating and trying to diminish his champion and MVP's, like his legacy was in play over 2 games and acting like he was never good is hilarious how all those ignorant are really quiet right now.
Jokic is the best the league has to offer and the Wolves look like they’ve arrived but let’s pump the brakes on these grand narratives that will sort themselves out.
Yeah, suddenly people are down on the Wolves after just 2 games like they didn't come out swinging against the current champs. Same with people who wrote off the nuggets for just 2.
The comedy and tragedy of media push for SGA is that they did a poor job about creating a narative for him. If they only gave a little bit of effort and creativiy, boosting a player who led the youngest team ever from lottery team to the conference top seed, right way, to the MVP status would we so easy that even Nuggets fans would clamor for him to be the MVP.
@@user-tt1hx2nm4p Luka has a great stats but those stats didn't equate to winning. Nikola's stats are even greater but he brought champion team that was DOMINANT 1st seed last year to the 2nd place in their conference. SGA brought the youngest team EVER to the 1st seed. The last year they were a LOTTERY team. They won season series against reigning CHAMPIONS with 3-1. So, one player brought team with mediocre standings to being less mediocre with the help of another all time great. The second one was less dominant than the last year while having the team that was built around him. The third one put a lottery team to the 1st seed with historical tag of "youngest ever". Which of those sounds the most VALUABLE to you? Disclaimer: this was just an example how media should have promote SGA if they were not lazy and uncreative. Jokic gets my vote but I am biased and can't be objective.
@@jordanjenkins1671 Yeah but with this guy you can never tell what the criteria is. Ant is basically a polar opposite of Jokic and to praise Ant as being the next MJ means his peers are a leagues below him which Jokic isn't. This dude clowned the Lakers mercilessly for losing to a better Nuggest squad last year in the WCF. Something tells me he's not gonna do 6 videos on Ant when he losses to Denver in the 2nd round. Feel me?
Jokic has clearly demonstrated he doesn't care what the media thinks about him. He doesn't chase accolades. Hard worker. Humble. Dedicated. Lifts his team. But continues to talk about life and family as more important than basketball. The media does not have a precedent for this dude.
The most un athletic MVP of all time, dominating the “most athletic” era of all time. Simply poetic.
Almost as if Jokic is an elite athlete with impeccable technical ability.

They looked so bad in the Lakers series and in the first two games, that I thought it would be a sweep too. Thank God Malone and Jokic rallied the team.
@@JohnWickjr I felt that game 2 loss was what they needed. I was surprised by game 2 but glad it happened.
@@vineelkesavarapu5736 You're absolutely right. A wake up call.
@@vineelkesavarapu5736The Lakers series they looked so bad (won on last moments) that I genuinely thought they would get swept.
Now they're looking like last year's Nuggets
@@redeyexxx1841 I thought that bad loss in game 2 was what the Nuggets needed. It was a wake up call for them
i still just love how it was “jokic shouldn’t get another mvp bc he hasn’t had playoff success” straight into “embiid/sga deserves mvp,” neither of which has playoff success
not like playoff success should matter for REGULAR SEASON MVP, but that was the EXACT reasoning the media gave for why jokic shouldn’t get another mvp
They literally can’t understand what they are watching. Jokic is one of one. He actually does what Lebron thinks he does. He makes the right play every time. If you know what to actually look for, it’s a beautiful game that man is playing
Their big noses and lips can't even sniff Jokers jockstrap
If they're saying that the Joker is playing in a weak era of basketball, What Does that tell us about lebron james😮😮😮😮😮
shaq doesnt like the fact that another big man has the same amount of mvps as him and is threatening his position on the big man hierarchy. Jokic is simply the best player this whole decade and shows no signs of stopping
Crazy how being the first seed, averaging crazy numbers, and being the focal point of your entire team was never mentioned by the media when Embiid won his MVP last year. The Nuggets were the undisputed first seed while the Sixers were a 3rd seed. The Nuggets practically tied for the first seed in a stacked western conference yet now they wanna make it about who has the first seed? I like Shai, but the amount of glazing he gets is ridiculous. Ja Morant was tearing up the league without even close to the help Shai has and nobody was talking about him in the MVP conversation. Replace Shai with any star point guard and they are just as good, if not better. Replace Jokic with any star center in the league and this team is a 6th seed at best.
When they write the joker's biography, they should call it "The man who they all loved to hate"
Its called " Why So Serious".
*the media loved to hate
Think that title goes to LeBron
Joker owns the league
0:50-0:57 Not just the media, many anti-Jokic basketball fans too have just been waiting for Jokic to fail and discredit all previous career accomplishments and his position as world's best player after game 2.
And now look where Denver's at -- tied the series with +2 more points scored overall and -5 fewer free throws overall than Minnesota. These teams are virtually equal and this series could go 7 games with either one being the winner. After game 2 I said "Denver was still in Lakers mode and did not come ready for the chess match and physical intensity that Minnesota came with. Now we see if Jokic and Mike Malone can execute a counter-strategy the next 2 games in Minnesota." And they did.
Now we wait to see if Minnesota has any more answers for Denver's offense and the championship DNA required to turn a series momentum back around like Denver just did.
Most of the Jokic haters are also from his grandsons, the Lakers fans. And are now Wolves bandwagons. 😆
7:42 that spin by jokic on ant was crazy! Had him going the other way completely, head turned and everything. Beautiful
some NBA analyst just dont wanna see a white boy school them. tell me im wrong
If joker was black he’d be compared to Kareem in every aspect. I hate to race bait but any other black player with jokers numbers would be the next face of the nba with his now 3rd mvp. Maybe they hate cuz he’s white maybe they hate cuz he’s European or they just hate his game who knows. Notice how they don’t even mention luka either when he was in the runner ups as well. they barely gave joker credit after winning a chip, only because they had to, and aren’t giving him credit now. This just makes me want Denver to win more so we can watch the media swallow it again.
Remember Tim Duncan? He was brown but got the same treatment that Jocic is now getting, too boring.
I too am tempted to think it bcuz the Joker is white and european but on further review, I believe it comes down to the the type of fans following the NBA.
Casual, young fans who lionise the dunk the after dunk taunt, the no-defense brand of basketball being touted by the league, might well see Jocic as boring.
On toh, the basketball aficionado will appreciate the subtleties of his game, his ability to orchestrate, his soft touch, ability rebound when he can barely jump over a credit card.
SAS, Perkins, Shaq et al, they cater to the previous crowd. The last crowd are capable of discerning the truth of the matter: the Joler is a sublime athlete/ball player who has his priorities in life well organized.
HOF right now.

Why the f Man who averaged 1.5 in two games is voting for MVP
In ONE game 😂😂
Best player in the league by far...
Shaq is just a hater.
He’s unbelievable,toying with every one
ESPN and sports media is something you shouldn't listen to cause most of the time they don't know what they are talking about
yet you are here
Soooo disappointed with Shaq. I noticed long ago he was jealous of Jokic, but I've never thought it was so bad he would not be able to control it.
Shaq has JDS, Joker Derangement Syndrome
Jokic very humble and has a great sense of humor 😁
Even if Denver doesn’t win the series joker has exposed the media for what they are. The racial bias against joker and Luka is so obvious at this point it’s embarrassing for them. The moment joker showed any weakness and had an off game they pounced
Racial bias?
Like all the super heroes being the same color?
Like how yall claim Em is the rapgod & Elvis king of Rock?
How about your Hulk Hogans,Stone Colds,John Cenas?
It's time to look in the mirror kid. Fix your brain & your eye sight.
What is so athletic about this Era??? All they do is stand around and watch each other 😅😅😅😅
That’s what I thought, This era and style of play honestly doesn’t even need to favour athleticism. doesn’t take a lot of athletic ability to sit on the perimeter and pop 3s most of the game.
They just want to shoot 3's. Seeing this all the time just shows how lazy todays players are. Their shooting % sucks too
Every year yoke won it Shaq wright SAS perk picked someone else to win mvp😂
The 40 point game five against the Wolves shows Jokic earned his MVP 🙏
The man is just GOOD!! His game IQ is simply off the charts. His vision on court is second to none. His passes are always on point. And that rainbow, fade-away 3 is just a thing of beauty!!
Can you imagine 4 consecutive MVP's in a row. Sheeeeeeeesh
Great points. Media changing narratives after each game is pure disgust.
Shaq mad the joker is going to go down as the Best Big to ever play
He's so much better than Shaq it's hilarious
Wow I thought this era supposed to be bigger,faster stronger yet joker continues to expose not just the media but the league also
Jokic excels in a black men's game. This is unforgivable. The same for Luka. In the Balkans, basketball is a white men's game.
Why you gotta bring race into this. They hate everyone that is a threat to lebron. Do you remember how they treated Kobe?????
I love that even ant acknowledges jokic
They would rather tear down Jokic than build up the Wolves.
Shameful.
We need more of the great videos! Great job!
Excellent job as usual, your commentary and analysis is insightful and very good
So.... Isn't the only stat SGA has over the Joker is points?
You forgot the skin color stat.
@@JohnWickjr yup.
Skin colour privilege.
American born privilege
Larry: I feel ya man
Jokic: does it get better
Larry: Nope Rodman still in his fellings
Thank you for being a voice of reason and presenting the other side.
They hate him because he is not flashy and dunking everywhere….
Exactly. Low IQ watchers prefer flash over substance.
true but that dunk in game 4 vs wolves was brutal
Love how yoke luka and giannis have proved these media fools wrong last few years
Jokic has the brain, it is not just the numbers, he is smart, humble and get the whole team working together. He is not just a leader, but more, he is a companion, inspiration
Finally someone who thinks for himself and tells the truth. New subscriber keep up the good work
People really think Shai deserved it because he averaged 5 more points on the 1 seed as if Jokic didn’t average a million more rebounds and assists and the Nuggets and Thunder had identical records
Then the Shai fans come around and say Shai plays defense.
Trying to diminish the Wolves defense to weaken Jokic’s incredible ability is such a weak move. They’re literally the number 1 rated defense in the league. It’s so easy to both acknowledge the Wolves’ defense, and Jokic’s elevation of the Nuggets’ offense and come to the conclusion that Denver was just better for these last two games. The NBA is obsessed with weakening teams and players’ positions to hand wave away good performances from unfavorable teams and players.
Funny cause it's as if you don't see the favoritism of the nuggets. They're being pushed as the face of the NBA.
This nba stuff is nothing more than WWE its all entertainment and scripts.
@@StayInYourPlace Terrible take, favoritism for the nuggets from the media 😂 Bro living in a another reality.
I really do love ur videos bruhh..💯💪🏿 keep doin wha u doin & helpin others understand..💯
I love how shai got like 14 first place votes and there are like 14 talking heads with votes that say shai should have won it lol
Its sad, Nikola Jokic just isn't the guy the NBA media wants to be the best player, and they are looking for every single reason possible to discredit the guy. Jokic is the best basketball player in the world, and there is no question about it.
Joker emphatically reminded the disbelievers these last 3 games exactly why he is a deserving 3-time MVP.
The media doesn’t like Jokic and Luka because they don’t fit the mold of what an NBA player looks like.
The amount of people who were mad horny, wet and rock hard seeing Jokic down 0-2 like celebrating and trying to diminish his champion and MVP's, like his legacy was in play over 2 games and acting like he was never good is hilarious how all those ignorant are really quiet right now.
It’s pretty funny to see how out loud racist people are with Jokic and Clark are.
Jokic is the best the league has to offer and the Wolves look like they’ve arrived but let’s pump the brakes on these grand narratives that will sort themselves out.
Yeah, suddenly people are down on the Wolves after just 2 games like they didn't come out swinging against the current champs. Same with people who wrote off the nuggets for just 2.
@@zephyrast3036ye. This will most likely be a 7 games bloodbath where anyone can win.
good sir i applaud your content keep it rolling
Imagine what they'll say if the nuggets come back from down 0-2 and win. And the Thunder to on to lose to the Mavs. Boy oh boy.
Wemby should have won DPOY not Gobert and Joker is about to expose him.
The comedy and tragedy of media push for SGA is that they did a poor job about creating a narative for him. If they only gave a little bit of effort and creativiy, boosting a player who led the youngest team ever from lottery team to the conference top seed, right way, to the MVP status would we so easy that even Nuggets fans would clamor for him to be the MVP.
Luka got better stats. Wtf are you talking bout? You're also looking at team record like the main stream racist media
@@user-tt1hx2nm4p Luka has a great stats but those stats didn't equate to winning.
Nikola's stats are even greater but he brought champion team that was DOMINANT 1st seed last year to the 2nd place in their conference.
SGA brought the youngest team EVER to the 1st seed. The last year they were a LOTTERY team. They won season series against reigning CHAMPIONS with 3-1.
So, one player brought team with mediocre standings to being less mediocre with the help of another all time great. The second one was less dominant than the last year while having the team that was built around him. The third one put a lottery team to the 1st seed with historical tag of "youngest ever". Which of those sounds the most VALUABLE to you?
Disclaimer: this was just an example how media should have promote SGA if they were not lazy and uncreative. Jokic gets my vote but I am biased and can't be objective.
The way jokic opens the floor is crazy
Should've been his fourth in a row. back to back to back to back MVP. One man Dynasty
Werent you slobbering over Ant last week?
He did but not on the expense Nuggets. You can praise other players without bringing other down.
Didn't Ant deserve praise for his playoffs performances up to that point?
@@PostNuggsClarity Are you sure we're talking about the same guy who posts 6 Bron hate videos week?
@@jordanjenkins1671 Yeah but with this guy you can never tell what the criteria is. Ant is basically a polar opposite of Jokic and to praise Ant as being the next MJ means his peers are a leagues below him which Jokic isn't.
This dude clowned the Lakers mercilessly for losing to a better Nuggest squad last year in the WCF. Something tells me he's not gonna do 6 videos on Ant when he losses to Denver in the 2nd round. Feel me?
@@andrewcook1246 I think this Channel is specifically created to hate on Lebron and Durant. But he gives praise to other players equally.
Great analysis 👍
Jokic has clearly demonstrated he doesn't care what the media thinks about him. He doesn't chase accolades. Hard worker. Humble. Dedicated. Lifts his team. But continues to talk about life and family as more important than basketball. The media does not have a precedent for this dude.
SGA is literally just James Harden all over again; Jokic is an unstoppable beast, never flops, never complains.
You make excellent points!! I am 🚀 fan but Joker is a gifted monster !
Look at that ball movement at the 2:30 spot…holy hell, that was a thing of beauty!!
UNCUT HOOOOOOOPS, I'M LOVING YOUR STUFF, KEEP IT UP 💪
Yeah, Denver is making me eat my words! I should just watch how it plays out! It is going to be a great series!
You nailed it
