Jokic is shutting up all the haters with this performance! 40 points, but the most impressive thing, no turnovers!
And 13 assists. Crazy good 😮
Please, overrated af! Embiid the better center.😂
@@Pascii4lifeI agree.... He's the best center in Cancun right now
@@Pascii4lifeNever made it past the second round?
@@Pascii4lifestop liking ur own comment
40 points 7 rebounds 13 assists 0 turnovers with 68% FG, this guy is just different
He is Jordan's son 😁😁😁
White man CAN jump ! ;-) hehe
And all of this while being guarded by the DPOY.
Come on, man! Shaq was better, especially at shooting from the outside and shooting free throws.❤😂😂😂 hard to be a correct biased expert😂😂
@@sacrifysehe’s talking about Jokic
You know he took it personal when he starts dunking and turning on another gear. It's crazy he has another gear 🤯
It’s better to have that last gear in reserve tho
Yea its personal when they choke a 20pt lead in a do or die game 7 😂😂😂😂
Underated gordon. Just wow! Amazing performance from him. Good at offense and defense.👏👏
Perkins 2023: " Embiid > Jokic "
Shaq 2024: " SGA > Jokic "
Jokic: " Hold my horses "
Can uderstand sga this year but embiid last year is most gifted trophy ever😅
Hold my horses you mean
@@filiphanic802 except for the reason, that jokic has overall better stats than sga
@@filiphanic802
There is no argument in favor of SGA over Jokic. None.
@@ey1615you're right, last year Embiid at least had crying for the award over Jokic. SGA didn't even cry.
The MVP against the DPOY - 40/7/13 with 80% shooting and no turnovers. Excuse me but that was one of the greatest performances in the NBA's history.
the whole game i was saying, this reminds me of Hakeem dismantling David Robinson in 1995.
@@williambrabston3045 respectfully still far from hakeem, but yeah, best big man in the league now!
@@anson802 In terms of accolades? Sure, but it isn't far. In terms of impact on a daily basis in the biggest stages? He surpassed him
Gobert always getting cooked by jokic , had Reid started, this would be over already.
@@anson802even Hakeem says Jokic is “The One”
Not going to lie here. As an old-school Bulls fan living in Utah all my life, I have to say I really like watching the Nuggets play. Can't stand Denver, but hey, it's not their fault. Also, I'm biased toward Jokic only because I lived in Eastern Europe for a while, but he's the epitome of their culture. Humble and hard-working. Dude is awesome.
Jokic is not from eastern europe
@@DTHPR542 Serbia is southeastern Europe dude wtf are you talking about

Dude southeastern and eastern are similar but not totally same terms.
@@mkbzamFlorida is not an eastern state at all, it’s literally on the list of southern states. During the civil war Florida fought for the south.
Joker is officially my favorite player in the league. He has that old school toughness that is hard to overcome. Quiet, professional and straight to the point. These playoffs have been amazing.
Your fav player just got bounced bye bye
Choke 20pt lead hahaha bye
follow your favorite player to his farm. he will let you ride his horses
When JOKER dunks twice, you know it’s over
I believe after what Shaq said, the Joker took it "personally".
I wish timberwolves won 😂
When the Joker is taking it personally, nobody's stopping him...And I mean nobody... He's the MVP for a reason.
Brooo those 3 dunks still leaves me in aww😂
And one of them was 2 handed. Damn. He was in his bag.
MVP 💪 F Shaq, F Perkins, F Arenas, F Wright, F ESPN as a company, sports network and media conglomerate
Damn slim shady chill 😂😂
Tupac
Jokic a fraud mvp not that good built like barney having ass..
Clap 👏 👏 👏 Wildes
…And if you wanna be down with Klutch Sports Entertainment, F YOU TOO.
Jokic cooking 3 big guys and one of them is the DPOY! Inside, outside, Gobert had no answer. He would probably have nightmares for a while. The most impressive thing about Jokic is how he makes his teammates play better. His teammates are really thriving well under his leadership. Porter jrs, shot selection and positioning got better. Jmurray an above average player now an elite player, Braun as well improving each game. Gordon was an average player before, but now under Jokic guidance is heading towards becoming a great player. Now that’s a hallmark of a true MVP!
Who got cooked now?
Was fan of nba for years until I found out that guy awaken beerus riggs all these gamees. How could he otherwise possibly know the results before the game. screw this…

@@Derinne2 bot comments dude ignore it
Thank you Shaq for saying SGA should’ve won MVP in front of Jokic.
Good joke from Shaq.
If you think Jokic needed motivation from shaq you’re an embarrassment

Can't give all the credit to Shaq, after all he's just being selfish as himself

40 points, 13 rebounds, 7 assists, and 0 turnovers. Jokic is the first player in NBA playoff history to achieve this line in a game, per Basketball Reference's StatHead.
Correction: It was 13 assists and 7 rebounds ... but thank you nontheless, Barbara. 😉
When Joker dunks bench and crowd went crazy like a hell. When he felt down immediately, 6 hand helped him. This shows how teammates and fans love him respect
Championship chemistry 😊
Family on 3. 1, 2, 3…FAMILY!
@@smart4232FAMILYYYYYYYYYY
Gobert- I got him. I got him

i got the reference but i forgot where i heard it from...
@@CoffeeMonster01 Jamal murray
6:20 RM said it all!! 😂
To be fair, gobear did everything he could in defensive end guarding jokic.
But that little hook shot is really crazy😂
The media always gets on Jokic’s back when he chooses not to take a lot of shots. This game, he (once again) showed what happens when he decides to aggressively score. Unstoppable low-post scorer.
Jokic can shoot 3s, midrange, freethrows, dunk, layup, assist, block - basically, everything - without having to showboat!
40p , 13a , 7r , 2s , 1b and most of all 0 turnovers .
Masterpiece
Jokic greater than Shia, Luka, gobert kat,antman, against the defensive player of the year a 40 piece
Let's be fair, Rudy did very good defence .
Just Joker offence was God mode .

@@Jay-eo7ly Jokic didn’t dunk in Game 7
Amazing passes by Jokic. The full court pass to Murray is just gold.❤5:30
The tip to himself from left hand to right hand was the beauty of that play.
Yes the full court pass part was nice too :)
The Joker was aggressive and it showed why he deserved the MVP. Ppl need to stop their prejudices against this fella and appreciate what he is brining to the sport and for the resurgence of the big man role.
This is Aaron Gordon's extra performance. He helps Jokic more than Murray in this serie.
To me he’s clearly been their 2nd best player the whole playoffs. Gordon is great he’s so athletic, good defensively, great offensive rebounder, and just knows how to play off jokic
Jokic winning an MVP is not a fluke,a historical performance. Denver does a huge
adjustments not only on defending Anthony Edwards also on offensive end.
Its kinda crazy cause after this performance it makes it look like Jokic is coasting during the regular season. Because he dominated in this game. Literally unstoppable. Not even the DPOY could stop him.
I think they left 22y old to do his stuff,and defend evryone else,kat is choker bdway
Lebron is still the best doesn't matter how many times Jovic win the MVP
Joker usually did just enough to help the team win..now he full on offense mode @@alejandroserrano7755
Definitely a fluke should of been SGA
As one of the people who counted out the nuggets after game 2, I humbly apologize to all nuggets fans. These guys r legit, and joker simply can not be figured out, he’s truly a magician on the court
no it was reasonable. the way they played in the first 2 games, coming out of the lakers series even I, a die hard nuggies fan, said ah this team wont be able to win. its just the way they played in first 7 games ... it wasnt the nuggets way. they laxidazically moved around and sort of shot, 2 amazing game winners by murray but you can see the guys were still like sluggish. when AG, Jk, murray, kcp and Pj get serious, theres no team beating them in the 7. they said it all year... i saw them all year when they turn up the heat .. its insane. we saw them the past 3 games, they're roasting the tims. ant who? AD who? lebron who? if the nuggets wanna win.. they have more stamina and ability than any other team. their bigs are straight up 60% shooters. which is insane. and their bench can easily get 20-40 points if they try which is also insane. but yea the first 2 games, it made no sense and if they continued taht way , they woulda gotten swept. but the losses woke up the beast and now we see the run away train picking up steam.
No need to apologize, even Nuggets fans thought it was over
I ain’t even gon lie. I’m a nuggets fan and seeing how both the wolves and nuggets performed those first two games I thought it was over.
@@Berssange55I was a bit worried. But I did say, If Murray got his shot back. It's gonna be a whole different experience for Minnesota. And Murray did caught fire.
Be patient
FreeDawkins youre a goat came a long way from your start
Incredible. Just incredible. Shaq and the world provided them with the little bit of extra motivation they were lacking to gear themselves up for a repeat. Now we're seeing a whole new level to this team and Jokic in particular! And no, it's not that Minnesota is shrinking under pressure because they're not! The MVP and best player in the world has just tapped into another gear as we're all witnessing. Make them respect you! Literally. 💪🃏
When jokic received his 3rd mvp after just down 0-2 vs timberwolves I wanted to see his response to the series and also the doubts from some people of him winning his 3rd mvp. And damn he responded like an mvp .
thank you to Shaq and the crew for pissing off Jokic saying he don't deserve to be the MVP. Jokic took that personal and now Timberwolves are taking the heat for it
totally true
shaq was ridiculus in free throws and barely moved out from the basket, and no threes, but Jokic is the full package
100% correct, gotta love watching memorable history being made
@@gregor1362 Finally someone said it. I lived in L.A. during his Laker time and we cringed whenever he was up for a free throw because we knew he would never make one and he didint.
Thank u shaq for turning jokic into a beast and beat the wolves in 7 😊
Absolutely love seeing Jokic flip the switch and go berserk on offense. Never seen him so hyped before.
I'm actually interested in the NBA again some great players at the moment a really exciting time for basketball. Jokic is a special player, it's a real treat to watch
Jokic locking in and playing serious is SCARY.
He completly took over. Literally was everywhere doing everything.
Apparently not enough lol
I like how guys have 1 game like this and they think that they can keep flipping this switch. I mean where was this “scary” man in game 7?😂 Wolves weren’t scared and sent him packing.
Jokic is only 29. When all the dust has settled and barring injury he will be remembered as the greatest center of all time. His game is phenomenal.
29 isn't young. Many centers have had their primes end at 29.
@@penkima4923 does jokic really look like a guy about to leave his prime. Dude has 5/6 decent years left at least. And probably another 5 off the bench if he wants it.
@@penkima4923jokic's game doesn't involve as many physically intensive facets such as dunking on every possession like Giannis, or shooting 40 shots a game, or any of that stuff. Makes you wonder why Giannis is always injured come playoffs and jokic isn't.
@@profesorz642 Are you an A.I. bot? And you still get your numbers wrong. Shaq won his first title and MVP at 28 years old. His prime ended at 31. And why would you laugh if you're slow?
no one ends their prime at 29. Maybe if u have severe brain damage 🤣🤣🤣@@penkima4923
Welp, this is pretty much over, the wolves might have a chance in the upcoming years, but for now is Jokic Era, this guy is really really special
It wasn't over after the first two games, it's not over now. Wait until the end of the series for this one.
@@SteP23179if Conley isn’t back it’s certainly over. T wolves guards outside of Ant aren’t good enough
whose era? Stfu
Apparently it was over for the nuggets 😂 crazy how y'all just assumed it was over after one game like the wolves weren't whoopin yall ass😂
@@mrgrooveytwoshoes dont get me wrong I was rooting for the wolves, but this series has been so unpredictability, like you would thought after that game 5, nuggets would've gone to the finals, but joker was gassed out, but the end of the series
Jokic is crazy good. No disrespect to other centers, but this guy has a very well rounded play compared to others. If you were to build a center player, this guy is the foundation. Go win them titles Mr Jokic 💪👏
Shaq: Jokic is not mvp.
Jokic: And I took that personally.
He really didn't take that personally.
Lol no one takes Shaq personally.
Jokic dunking two games in a roll? Yeah he mad mad 😂
He was LOCKed in.
in a row
*row...
He's literally mad now while feeding grass to his horses
It's over for the league nobody can stop this team from repeating 😤😤😤
Biggest compliment I can give jokic is he makes it look so easy. He puts on a master class every time he’s on the court. He can do it all at the highest level. Shoots like dirk, passes like bird, dominates paint on offense like Duncan. He is the best in the NBA and if they win back to back to rings?
No they wont. See you next year 🤪

As you can see Shai only beats Jokic in Steals and PPG. Jokic decimates him in mostly every other stat category under the sun. There's levels to this and Shai wasn't even close. Jokic was so far ahead in the MVP convo that they had to try and make it interesting by including Shai and making it look like he has a chance.
The fuck u adding "no all stars in his team" "no jamal murray for 23 games" "epic game winner" for clown ass boi
Completely agree, still can’t believe people believe he shouldn’t have won, thanks for the stats too
Thank you good sir, hit em with facts and numbers! The funniest thing were the comments that said Shai brought them from a playin team to the first seed! Eh, did you miss that they added Chet to a team that was missing rim protection and shooting?
Damn how did jokic not get every vote 😅
Great stats. Most people are just blind haters. They do not like to come to terms with someone entering the company of other elite all-time greats (3+ MVP awards), especially only having 9 seasons in the league. But the man has proven and continues to prove everyone wrong, in a humble, hard working fashion.
Man, in fact Towns and Gobert played not very bad tonight, but Joker really a monster tonight.
The most efficient Center in history!

Jokic a fait l’amour à Gobert dans toutes les positions!!! Il n a pas vole son titre de MVP!!! Quelle prestation!!!🔥🔥
KCP running over to give Jokic no turnovers was pure class.
6:30
It's impressive to me that players can play with the awareness of their teammates' stats mid game.
jokic didnt have full control of the ball tho but if kcp thought of this then yeah that is pretty cool
@@PutYoRhymeOn the team gets that turnover at the end, no individual player does. suspect KCP knows that lol
It's never a turnover when a defensive player doesn't have control of the ball. Jokic only tipped it. I don't believe it was even a turnover on KCP because he never touched the ground while he had the ball. Notice that the shot clock didn't reset to 24. Not sure how the game book will score it.
Jokic is historical player..
he does everything on the court
Jokic out there just toying with everybody. This is a grown up monster in a kids game… simply unstoppable🤙🏻🔥
Denver looked unstoppable they continue to keep playing like this they are going to win it all again
no they wont 😂😂😂😂
Apparently they were stopped lol
If Denver plays like this they’re Definitely very tough to beat and probably wins it all, but them having all that pressure on them losing the first 2 at home they had to play like this 3 games in a row exerting tons of energy and Game 6 showed how little energy they had left and they used all they had in the first half of game 7 and when Minnesota switched gears Denver looked tired and their shots they made in these 3 games were all short in game 7, they weren’t getting those rebounds and hustle plays like they were, Minnesota literally turned up the pace and intensity and Denver could do nothing About it.
It's just amazing how easily Nikola Jokic turns a DPOY level player into a North Korean championship level player
He’s just ass tbh probably the worst DPOY I’ve seen, it’s not even just its Jokic he dead ass looks lost on defense, delayed reactions and missed assignments like he has a low defensive IQ.
@@_truthBtold cap Jokic is on a GOAT level, nobody stopped MJ not even DPOYs and what nots also the Wolves were A LOT better with Rudy on the floor mostly because of his great defense, you just a hater fr
Well Gobert got his DPOY from blocking shots majority from Guards who goes inside (Floaters, Layups etc.) , His powers is not enough to fight that Mythological Joker Monster who only appears once every century.
Gobert is one of the more overrated players in the league. Next year the DPOY belongs to Wemby
There is no one big enough to keep Jokic away from the basket. This is what happens when current bigs all want to develop face-up games and shoot threes. It has more to do with Jokic's skill than Gobert's ability to defend. It was the same way when Olajuwon cooked David Robinson in the '95 WCF, en route to sweeping Shaq in the Finals.
Wow! Jokic is an all-time great. That was a performance for the ages.
Goddam some of those Jokic passes... He is creating a new position, "Point Center."
Никто как Йокич! Ни блиско! Нагетс демонстрирует настоящий баскетбол, то зачем мы любим эту игру! Волки, честно говоря, выгледили безидейно, наверное понимая что все зря, что бы не делали.

Braun is nice with it too though, we all know Jokic is the man but don't sleep on Braun
The Denver Nuggets is a basketball sports team at the edge of space, they travel together with the ball towards the winning gravity of a stellar basket. Simply divines, simply strong, light and at the same time fast as the wind. An eternal and unique spectacle like the sound of the sea and the dancing and sick poetry of human successions and dynasties. Thank you Nuggets for these continuous emotions at the magical heart. Ohh my god.
What NJ did here is simply one of the greatest performances a center has ever made in the history of NBA. Not just because of the 40 points, but also how he assisted his team mates and how he solved complicates situations all over the court. Jokic is basketball!
All of this going up against the DPOY too!!!
''NJ'' 🙄...stop attaching that uhmurucan fägöttry on Jokić 😒.
And all that by making solid fundamental basketball moves. His foot work in the post, moves like at 2:51 sealing out the defender (Edwards who can block a shot from behind)

@@steefvanburen7985 Yes, his moves are solid, but also powerful and smooth. A perfect combination between american and european style. I'm talking about centers, of course.

Greatest performances? I had the opportunity to watch Jordan play in the 90's. This performance is no where near close to that level.
This is truly a game that will be watched for the ages. The Timberwolves are great, but these Nuggets were 100% as a team. Not to take anything away from the other players, but Aaron Gordon has been critical to keep the flow going and Nikola, he's the Man on the Pale White Horse. He scared Shaq and Chuck so much they couldn't show their faces.
Sorry but no one will ever remember this game…..they will be too busy thinking about the 20 point meltdown and epic comeback from the Wolves
Jokic msde it personal. He didnt wanna lose
I've never seen anything like Jokic. No big man has ever been able to do what he showed here. Ever.
Shaq says hi.
Maybe not in terms of playmaking but Dirks 2011 playoff run was magical
@@moonknight2865 I love Shaq but he ain't know jokic. Jokic playing like a 7foot Karim with passing of magic and shooting like bird.
@@jonathanm6724Dirk was a power forward, tho he was a legit 7 footer. But if Joker gets another title, now there's something one title Dirk could never get and Joker immediately becomes bigger legend than Dirk. I think he already is, cause of 3 MVP awards.
@@Just_another_Euro_dude Jokic has already definitely surpassed Dirk but wouldn’t PF be classified as big man ? Or you meaning just centers?
Gobert: Don't double, I got him!
Jokic: Brother, I have 40 and 13.
First of all give Joker the credit. True MVP performance. Now I want to take about how you defend him in current NBA.
Under the current officiating, Joker is unstoppable, maybe limitable. When he elbows his way to the paint, If you don’t push against with your chest, he bulldoze under the basket and score at will. If you do so, he raises arm and head and the ref blows the whistle. He is too smart. He knows when to use force and when to act like fouled.
So It requires a lot of intelligence and physicality to limit(not stop) Joker. The ideal defense is to be physical without fouling, to use body and then back off a little, to anticipate his turns and stay in his way, to try to contest as much as possible. And sometimes you may even try to pull the chair and let him fall, which he does many times against Gobert.
However Joker’s IQ is higher than that of KAT and Gobert combined…so, unless Wolves coach figures out something new or the officiating changes and allow more body contact, Game 6 will just be a repeat of G3,4, and 5.
5:30 look at that iq, as soon as he know that he can secure the ball after he tap it with his left hand, he immediatly turn his head to look for an open men on the other side of the court. That flip of switch from offence to defence is on another level of basketball genuis.
Jokic shows who the true MVP is😂
Past 4 years no doubt
I hope he sont get mvp
Denver a true championship team, well done!
if this series was your first introduction to Rudy Gobert, you'd be questioning how tf he won DPOTY 😂
Nuggets meteor is about to hit the 2024 finals. Amazing team, amazing effort, go Nuggets go. You well deserve the championship.
Well sorry about that.
TBH THE JOKER SHOULD HAVE 4 MVP'S
MVP performance by the real deserved mvp
I can't even be mad that these guys are beating us, they're so good it's ridiculous 😂
Damn. Jokic woke up. He's putting in some graft before his summer of horse carriage racing lol.

Might be greatest adjustment in Playoff history everyone counted Nuggets out after going down 0-2 at home.. Nuggets are legit Dynasty in the making.. What a 4 year stretch by Jokic..
It makes you think how much quicker they woulda won if not for all their injuries.
Personally don't see them as a dynasty just yet but their team is hella cool to see. Jokic really an inspirational ass player lol
The Nuggets didn't make any adjustments.
u didnt take your meds again 🤣🤣🤣@@penkima4923
@@alejandroserrano7755generally speaking, nobody gave a shit about Denver not having Jamal and mpj for basically two whole seasons. People still ridiculed Jokic for losing to the warriors and suns in those years. Without a doubt if they had Murray and mpj, they make deep runs in both of those years if not win the whole thing. Meanwhile I have to hear about how Mike Conley not being available is make or break for the Timberwolves.
You have Kat and gobert who are paid 50 mill a year and also Anthony Edwards. Jokic didn't have any of those guys and he still only lost to NBA finalists. Yet he and Denver get torched and called bums coz of that in 2021 and 2022
Great game by Denver. Minnesota players were hesitating on almost every play, locked as they chocked right from the beginning and it went from bad to worse as time passed.
Congrats not only to Nuggets players, but also to coaching stuff. After two home losses they made perfect adjustments.
The Nuggets fr figured out the Wolves. It was 0-2 and now 3-2? That's honestly really impressive
Its over for the wolves 😢😢😢
Yep and that was the highlight of their series 😂😊
Jokic after game 2: Hold my horse for a sec
Your sound editing/mixing in these highlight packages is impeccable. Appreciate your work Dawkins.
Shaq is going crazy 😂😂
That's why nobody should receive the MVP award except for Jokic...nuff said
Jokic demonstrating why he's the MVP and putting the kid on the other team in his place 😂👏
Yeah, there are levels to this game, and Jokic is on a completely different level.
Ant only has guts to talk when he's winning. He will be the face of the league, and represents his generation of soft brats perfectly.
You mean those idiots call Mj son 😂
Thanks jokic for humbling antman 🔥🔥💪💪
Immediate vision and dime, insane 5:32
Shaq literally poked a bear, he shouldn't have said that. He should be more embarrassed coz of the classy response from Jokic both on and off the field.
Big fella with one of the greatest playoff performances ever in a pivotal game 5... well deserved MV3
