- Nikola Jokic wins MVP for the 2023-2024 season and Shaq was not pleased. He believes Shai Gilgeous-alexander should have won and uses stats to back is argument when those are not in his or SGAs favor. By Shaqs own criteria Jokic is the rightful winner of the MVP. I believe Shaq is insecure about his career in that he didn't take it seriously enough despite his greatness. He could have been even greater if he was obsessed like Kobe Bryant.

6:52 I meant to say Jokic is the only player to win 3 MVPs since Lebron and Jordan. I completely garbled my sentence. Larry Bird, Moses Malone, Kareem, Wilt, Bill Russell, and Magic Johnson scoff at my foolishness...... sorry, everyone.
He even cry when nash won the mvp
Da Commish is allowed a misspeak!
you foolish foolish foolish foolish foolfihf fihsooool folsiih safliasf sarlish sardine, how could you! 😤
you good commish, we got what you meant there ✌
Maybe you should actually listen to what Shaq said?
For a man with 3 FMVPs and 4 rings, He sure is insecure about a regular season award.
For real, Shaq is definitely insecure about the fact he didn’t try as hard as he could of when he played. He can’t take a joke like Charles or Kenny can
I got rings, he ain’t got no rings incoming in 3..2..1..
Shaq needs therapy, his small pp personality is showing
Steve nash lives rent free in his head. Same with ernies * ans youll never catch him * also * uhhh yes i did for nash over you *
Shaq knows 2 of his rings are tainted. 2002 WCF and 2006 Finals were obvious rig jobs
He doesn't want Jokic to pass him as an all-time great center.... that's it.
If Jokic keeps it up he just might
@@managed9348if they’d match up what would happen😭jokic would be lunch meat. Jokic is a beast but shai should have won it this year
@@Dipset415oh please bruh …
@@Dipset415 if they matched up neither would stop the other.
@@managed9348 Jokic is going to pass him up.
Shaq still salty about those 2 Nash MVPs
“I thought I was robbed 2 or 3 times” therefore Jokic deserves to get robbed too mentality 😭😐
Shaq is the type of guy who would say "Back in my days...."
@@EdWedgie Crazy thing is he already did get one robbed from him last year
I love shaq but he get salty af about the nash mvps 😂
"I don't want to rain on anybody's parade..." 🤣🤣🤣. That is ALL THAT SHAQ does.
YOU CAN TELL SHAQS GETTING MORE AND MORE INSECURE ABOUT HIS PECKING ORDER IN THE ALL TIME CENTER RANKINGS. THE MORE HE KEEPS HATING ON JOKIC THE MORE PEOPLE ARE GOING TO START HATING ON HIM. HE NEEDS TO SHUT UP BEFORE HE BECOMES WHAT HE FEARS.
HATED
He's always number 5. So he's been insecure for a while. It's simple really.
1. Wilt
2. Kareem
3. Russell
4. Hakeem
5. Shaq

Joker should've been the MVP last year too! Last time I checked, the MVP award is not a participation trophy. Embiid literally cried his way into winning MVP last year, and was deservedly exposed in this year's playoffs
And last year's, too
He was mvp in espn's narrative 😂
According to the criteria they are talking about, Embiid was the MVP last year. His stats were the best of anyone in the league.
Jokic seems to be getting exposed in this years playoffs too tho.
@@Ryan-wx1bi Exactly! He is absolutely useless on defense. Not to say Shaq's take is right, but the guy is highly over-hyped. I'd say it is more a commentary on the state of the NBA as a whole, that someone so unathletic and terrible on defense could be a 3-time MVP. It was easy to see that the Wolves would embarrass this Nuggets team, just by watching their horrendous defensive effort against the Lakers.
Every player gets robbed like Jokic when Embiid won it. Jordan when Karl Malone won it. And so on
Malone deserves that award that year
@@Pimping9167 nah he didn’t because he knew when he received it that Jordan was gonna break him and that is what Jordan did!!😂😂😂
You could see it in his face.. thinking well there goes the championship!😂
@@JohnMackeyIIIIt.is.a.regular.season.award.🤦🏽♂️.🤦🏽♂️.🤦🏽♂️.
Embid is a fraud, 😂. I can’t man. Net losing record in postseason. Never made past 2nd round. A foul merchant at it too.
arguments every year about this in all sports, but Shaq was just pissy tonite and out of place when Joker came on.
Shaq and Kendrick Perkins are just being straight up racist about Jokic. Shaq didn't even know OKC and Denver had the same record, but was trying to say SGA should've gotten MVP because of OKC's record? What a joke.
Kendrick? Sure. Shaq? He’s just a dedicated hater. If you’re at Center, he doesn’t like you.
Shaq is Ring-ist
He dismisses any opinion from anyone who has less than 4 rings
Enough with the race card already.🙄
@@jesstiss222 hard not to when what happened last year did, but you're right some people overdo it
Colonised people can't be racist 🤡 people that have never paid reparations have allot of pride to reverse rolls over facts
The case for Jokic?
- 26.5 pts /12.5 reb /9 ast /1.5 stls. 58 fg % /36 3pt % /81%ft
- tied for best record in the West. Murray missed 25 games and the Nuggets were not deep like OKC this year.
- 25 triple doubles
- he finished top 10 among 450 players in total points (5th), rebounds (3nd), assists (2rd), steals (8th) and true shooting percentage ( 10th)
- 1st in Player Efficiency Rating, 1st in Win Shares, 1st in Box Plus Minus, 1st in Value over Replacement Player
This is way more impressive than what Shai did.
Take Jokic out of Denver and they are one of the worst teams in the league take Shai off Okc and they are playin borderline playoff team with guys like Chet Holmgren and Jdub.
@@emilfrederiksen.1622are you sure about that?
People should have voted for El Gordo, or whatever his name was. Paolo Banchero.
Luka’s stats were better than Shai’s: points, rebounds, assists.
How is what luka did this year not way more impressive than both of them?
At this point we need to stop taking Shaq seriously. He’s so insecure about other bigs doing good in the league, reaching all time status, he did it to Dwight Howard, Gobert and now trying to do the same petty BS to Jokic. 😂
Why because Shaq gave Shai Alexander credit and people don't like that. 🤔 That's one thing I never hear any of you bring up. You guys use your own logic like Conspiracy theorist instead bring up what the man said and why you disagree with him
@@melvynsngltn27 look if you want to be naive about it, that’s fine, but Shaq literally has a history of discrediting big men who end up collecting more accolades than him. Jokic had more MVPs than Shaq, Gobert and Dwight Howard have more DPOY awards than Shaq.

@@losrevolucionarios8858 Your Lakers suck ass and LeEPO is washed.
Shaq should have stayed in the shape he was in Orlando. He was lazy as hell.
Yeah had he stayed in Orlando shape he’d be the goat I think. He would’ve played at an mvp level well into his thirties, still probably an all nba player in his late thirties.
Can't say goat, but instead of 5th best center, he would have been 3rd best (Kareem and Wilt would be hard to pass, to me)

@@DemonKingBadger 💯
Not true because Shaq hated on Dwight like crazy for years.
@@strickyboiwonder Shaq is Racist, he only care about his skin color
Yeah ESPN and the rest of the sports media would probably ignore Jokic. Jokic is their great white hope to attract white people to the NBA after all that BLM stuff that happened in the bubble or do you always believe the media
should’ve been his fourth MVP
Nah. His first and only should’ve been last year. He didn’t deserve anything in 2021, 2022 or this year
Guess Shaq was full of shit when he thanked Jokic for putting the big man back in his rightful place as top Dawg.
To me, Jokic is essentially the Tim Duncan of his era. An all-time great player that constantly gets slandered for reasons that have nothing to do with what they have achieved on a basketball court
do not compare jokic to the legendary Tim Duncan.
I know of no one who ever slandered Duncan. He gets constant respect for his mastery of fundamentals, his cool composure, his champion mentality, and quietly having a better career than Kobe and Lebron while not having any ego about it. Every team, player, and fan of basketball has nothing but respect for Timmy D.
@@ZmanStephensBecause Jokic is a much better player than Duncan. It isn’t close. The stats all prove it irrefutably.
@Prodigial People obviously give Tim Duncan his flowers now but I remember a period of time where people were saying some ridiculous shit about Tim because they deemed him to be a "boring" player.
@@nevenpatrk9661 Yeah, exactly. You won't here nobody talking bad about Duncan today, but at the time he was playin' that was way different. Every discussion about him started like "Yeah, Tim Duncan is good, BUT ..."
Abdul-Jabbar won 3 mvps with the bucks and 3 mvps with the lakers which makes him the best center in nba history
I got him number 1, period. Though I will say if I took out championships it would be Wilt.

He hates Bill Walton? Why? lol

Shaq you had Kobe and Dwade when you won- who does Jokic have?
To be fair, Kobe didn't reach full form until the 2nd ring. On the other hand, Wade was the #1 in Miami.
As many people like to say Shaq carried Kobe, they should say Wade carried Shaq.

@@melvynsngltn27 to that Miami title. Or at least Wade carried Shaq just as much as Shaq carried Kobe.
Shaq only averaged 13 in that Heat Finals, btw.
Shaq is so upset because Jokic is proving that physical dominance & athleticism isn’t everything when it comes to basketball… EFFICIENCY and smart PLAYMAKING are the most important aspects of virtually every team sport around the world.
What Shaq did was corny and his old hating ass needs to take a chill pill. Except for Embiid, he takes shots at every big in the league and don’t let them be good… lmaoo
He probably heard the whispers of Jokic catching up to him and it triggered him lol
He'll start hating Embiid when he has the potential surpassing him. He was praising Jokic before he got his ring and it will be no different when Embiid (if that ever happens) gets to the Finals.
“Take a chill pill”, that’s hilarious 😂.
Exactly, Imagine Joker playing with Kobe or Wade. He would of past him already.
my boi Shaq is way too salty for no reason 🤣
he has reasons he cant take it to see another big man better than him😂
Nah you’re wrong. Shaq played in a time when it was a Men’s League and you had to take bumps. Basketball back in the day was way more difficult than today’s League. It’s just facts. So I can see where Shaq’s saltyness comes from tbh
Shaq out here looking like beef jerky!
@@kmacadaeg7 yeah but its not deserved for jokic
Shaq also gave respect to Mo Wagner, the magic backup center and barely wants to talk about Paolo cause he doesn't like praising the other 2 magic number 1 picks
That's why his hate for Dwight runs so deep. Another talented Center AND #1 pick by Orlando? Nah I don't like him. I'm never gonna like him
@@richborn6700 who cares about what you like
Shaq is the biggest hater of all time.
It is, and it's sad bc people praise and value -& IMHO overpraise and overvalue - him for his own career.
@@T.H.E.O.R.Y. These guys all have such fragile egos, Shaq wears his insecurity like a flashing red sign. In his prime, he was the most dominant player the game has ever seen. A low skill monster who couldn't beat a 5th grader in a game of HORSE. Still, he was able to impose his physical will because he was a giant among giants. Made a 2nd career out of constantly trying to undermine the achievements of other great bigs.
automatically if you're a great center
The BHOAT. 😂👍🏾
Pippin is worse
The crazy thing is that your jokic literally said if he got MVP he doesn't care plus on top of that he did say that Shaq was his favorite player growing up.
No, he said Duncan was his favorite player.
He just hates Jokic so disrespectful. They just don’t want a European to win. Be a man Shaq and admit your racist
Honestly this year MVP could've been anybody but they decided to give it to Jokic for the third time and he's about to get eliminated from the playoffs. Jokic deserved it last year but this year should've went to someone else

Thinking a man who averaged 26-12-9 doesn’t stuff the stat sheet is wild.
Shaq will always be the “What Could’ve Been” player in league history. He said he would never shoot free throws like Rick Barry, even if it meant he would win more games. Could’ve been top 3 of All-time…
If Shaqs argument is that stats are the most important criteria for an MVP then why is his pick for MVP not Luka.Luka has way better stats this season than Shai and it's not even close
What if being insecure is part of Shaq’s brand. Like damn, is he not aware he oozes insecurity.

Clear as day that Jokic had a better statistical season. "Oh well SGA took the youngest team ever to the 1st seed."
1. They got the 1st seed off of a tie breaker.

SGA did not earn this MVP and he should be happy he was named a finalist over Giannis. Luka and Jokic were the only two people that earned the award this season and they gave it to Jokic.
his 2nd place was correct...and anybody who is in the conversation had themselves a great season.
Compared to other professional basketball players, Jokic is absolutely unathletic. He makes up for it with superior basketball skills. Larry Bird and Tim Duncan did the same.
Shaq showing one of the most questionable displays of sportsmanship since Brazilian Ronaldo wished injury on Germany's Miroslav Klose - so MK would not break his World Cup football (soccer) scoring record.
Sadly for Brazilian Ronaldo, MK did break the record. When Germany played against Brazil. In the World Cup semifinal. Hosted by Brazil. The game was a humiliation for Brazil (7-1).
Oh, and Brazilian Ronaldo was there to witness it.
Congrats to Jokic! "Not athletic" - what a joke. It's kind of a hidden compliment. He's this good when he's not even "athletic"? Imagine how good he could be if he became "athletic." 😂
Thanks for the video! 🙏

Shaq giving Jokic big respect and props, face to face on air after the Finals last year, now seem a bit disingenuous.
The subtle shade thrown at Darth Vader.......Brilliant!😂😂😂
It really sucks to see players you used to look up to as a kid and see them destroy your perception of them.
Shaq used to be a goofy and down to earth guy and that was all. Even after the whole Shaqtin a fool incident with Javale Mcgee I was willing to let things slide.
Partly cause I could see Javale point of view of doing dumb stuff on the court. *cough* I once scored on my own basket as an 8 year old kid.
And then I realized the world and people arent black and white. You can be a douche and one the greatest players of all time.
Weird how players who were once giants in my eyes like Shaq, Carmelo, Paul Pierce, Dwayne Wade, Lebron etc.
Just prove themselves lesser men each day and destroy their own legacies.
Meanwhile dudes I have never watched nor particularly cared about until now like Charles Barkley, Tim Duncan, Dirk have become my favorite players of all time.
Well, I always preferred the Duncan/Dirk type actually.
It's a shame to see. With someone like Shaq, it's just... I like him. I WANT to like him. I listened to his music, watched his movies, read his comics, played his games, he's been a presence for a long time in my life that I've enjoyed a ton. All he has to do is check his ego and ALLOW me to like him. He's got an unfathomable amount of fame and wealth, and he'll always be considered one of the basketball greats. He's won life, what more could he possibly want? He has every reason to be happy and at peace. He should be enjoying his great fortune, and passing on the good vibes. Yet he can't help himself from trying to throw his weight around, and behaving like a bitter diva. I'm glad Ernie checked him, but I know he ain't gonna reflect on nothing.
It's frustrating as hell, man. Dude needs to take a step back and get some perspective.
Shaq basically was the kid that didnt even look at the book, let alone read it, and wrote a book report. This is kind of making me think that this is race rooted versus performance.
“We just saw it today”. 🤣🤣
Bro Charles is the definition of every dog has his day.
Jokic just moved up to top 15 all time
For a regular season award? 😂 Crazy
Top 20 with one ring, one FMVP, and 3x regular, plus his career is not over.
Ridiculous. Dude will lose and might get swept against the Wolves.
Bro is not top 15. Call down
Top 2!
Just mad White guys dominating the NBA if he didn't win give it to Luka!
yeah he, like most blacks is racist as hell
Despite the media hating Jokic, he simply beats the system. Like he has a cheat code for winning MVPs. Advanced metric stats, simply cannot be duplicated for a very long time.
You would've thought Shaq ate all the damn jerky in the world with all the salt in his body 😂😂
Joker was clear MVP. People acting like Shai was the only reason OKC got #1 are delusional.
Jokic is the definition of MVP. The only all star in his team.
respect both, but take Jokic off Denver and SGA off OKC and OKC has the better record by a mile.
@@charleybarley914lies OKC is a bunch of young guys. They’d 2nd best player is literally a rookie. Giddy is a start.
Denver has 4 guy in the starting lineup that could be the best player on a team l

-Urinatingtree
If Shaq is this insecure, Think how insecure most other ringless players are.
I mean… Charles isn’t that insecure?
Chuck is one of the most supportive when you're balling your ass off.
It feels like Shaq's just scared shitless of dropping down the all-time center list.
Barkley with no rings is less insecure than Shaq 😂
None of them really act that way...chuck, Iverson, tmac, nique and many others always seem pleased with their place in history...Shaq is and will always be Mr sensitive
Jokic definitely deserved to win the MVP
Shaq chose to enjoy his life and indulge himself outside the game during his time in the league. I have no issue with that whatsoever. The fact he spent more time in the McDonald’s drive-through/strip club then he did in the gym/weight roomis a testament 2 physical ability. He might even be able to get away with using that as a talking point in a debate on where is in the greatest of all time conversation. He would still lose that debate but I couldn’t blame him for attempting to use it nonetheless. The real embarrassment isFact he obviously regrets his choice of lifestyle as a young man.
A lot of this is just American Xenophobia. That's why SGA's points matter more than Luka's scoring title win. A lot of these dudes resent foreigners, and as a Nigerian I can tell that if they're white it's worse. Embiid & Giannis never get the criticism Jokic got. I can't even imagine how people would've trolled Jokic had he made Giannis goofy speech about failure after flopping in back to back playoffs.
They want an American star, and if he's black even better. And I know SGA's Canadian but he's lived in America since High School.
I sincerely felt bad for Joker in that moment. We're all entitled to our opinions on who should or shouldn't win, but there's a time and a place. Shaq stole that moment from him. Imagine sitting there waiting to be interviewed about an award you just won, someone comes out in front of you and announces to the world that you don't deserve it. Shaq owes that man an apology. Again, you don't have to think he deserves it, but it comes down to common decency as a human being. Shaq could have picked another time to express his opinion, instead of making another MVP race toxic. We're going to force that man into an early retirement! Joker, it's well deserved. A lot of guys could have won that, they all have a case, but the voters made their decision so let's not make it any more toxic than it already has been. 🤷♀️
I hope it makes puts Jokic into BEAST MODE and takes it out on the Timberwolves. No easy task but he can do it!
I don’t think Jokic cared that much, it was clear that his mind was on the Wolves series, not some award
Shaq continues to prove why he doesn’t have, and hopefully won’t ever have, that MVP vote.
If Jokic or SGA won it I would of said either one deserved the mvp ... The only reason I think Jokic deserved it more was he is far more important to his team then SGA. The more important also is just the stats ... SGA had more points .. but only 4 more points average then Jokic. Jokic had over twice the rebounds and 3 more assists.
Exactly! And they moving like being 2nd in the race ain’t respectable! We still acknowledging SGA and Luka for their incredible play it’s just that Joker had a little more edge over them!
What's crazy is Shaq basically became a journeyman, or sort of basically was one. Dude played for 6 teams, Durant is up to 4 teams now and may catch Shaq before it's over.
And always followed all nba 1st team guards 😂
@@mrvhz7 it's a damn shame, I remember seeing KD his loan year at The University of Texas, I was playing in the basketball band at Baylor.

No apologies need, please continue with your incredible videos. They are a light that always brightens my day. 💪🏾💪🏾
Bro you speak Truths! Subscribed. Joker should have been 4 straight MVP
Shaq knows he’ll be out of top10 soon😂
He was classless and made it about himself. Obviously, Jokic won by a lot. To say it to Jokic and ruin his moment was petty and extremely disrespectful! I felt so bad for Jokic.
Jokic's MVP is well deserved. Not only due to basic stats, but the impact he has on a game when he's on/off the court is like no other player in the league, and it isn't close. I completely agree with Kobe's assessment of Shaq. He never really grew as a player once he got into the League, a lot of his best years and most impressive performances came when he was on the Magic. All this nonsense coming from Shaq whenever he has to talk about a truly great big man is just petty jealousy. I like Shaq, I remember the days where Shaq-centric media was its own genre. Music, movies, comics, video games, and I love it all. But, I really hope at SOME POINT the guy grows up a bit and learns to humble himself. He's in his 50s and he still acts like a petulant teenage diva.
Shaq needs to realize that he doesn't need to convince people that he was great, or that we should like him. I already do. Tons of people do. When Shaq's having fun, he's just a blast to watch do anything. But he's so insecure, he needs to relax.
Shaq can't fathom something isn't about him
Sabonis had a fourth place vote and wasn’t an all star 🤣
Well we all know that he should have been an all star to be fair
People just mad becuase theyre down 2. If the nuggets were up or even nobody would even be talking
Disagree, SGA has some of the most dedicated and annoying dickriders I think I ever seen
Shaq saying he’s racist without saying he’s racist 😂
DYNAMOOOO 🧨🧨 🧨
Shaq like… no see what had happened was😂
Jokić deserves to be MVP. And Shaq hoping and praying Minnesota beats them this round so that he can feel good about himself which to me look pretty pathetic on his part.
I know mvp is a regular season award but I usually think the best player is the best player on a finals winning team. Jokic right now is playing bad against the t wolves and lukas slumping.
They would beat the nuggets regardless.
SGA deserved it more. RS MVP is a "feel good" reward so it's SGA's turn to get recognition.
2 awards are enough for the joker, for now,
he needs to pull his team up from the pit and make competitive before they get swept.
It's leadership time
Shaq still SALTY about All Of South Central Passing his BM AROUND
Thank you for pointing this out. In Shaq's early years in Orlando, there were teammates that thought Shaq's clubbing the night before games and practices was a problem. Shaq got shut down by Dennis Rodman in the playoffs after a fun night beforehand. The fun time attitude didn't stop in LA. And NOW......there is a problem. Talent can take you a long way until you meet the person that uses talent and hard work together.
Maybe Shaq doesn't know that SGA isn't American either lol. You don't have to be a genius to know why The Big Insecure is really salty why Jokic won it again
I don't think he cares about that more than black or white.
It is important that he is black, from the States, Canada, Cameroon, it does not matter, a "brother" is a "brother"...
It absolutely went to the correct person. What Jokic does for Denver is just mindblowing. He is literally the centerpiece of their offense. He is the one enabling everyone else. His basketball IQ is also one of the highest in the league. I think what some people forget is that this is a professional bsketball league, not a pick up game. Jokic is not a flashy player, he does what works and does not feel the need to show off. So he will never be popular enough among fans, because he treats basketball in a different way. This is what separates him from Anthony Edwards and Shai, he is simply not interested in anything else but the most efficient way of playing basketball profesionally.
Jokic is the definition of MVP. The Nuggets just dont exist without him. OKC can play without Shai. Nuggets cant play without Jokic.
That is 100% why he is MVP.
What a hater.
They should have steve nash as a guest analyst when one of the guys are out.
Shaq knows damn well this pretty much ensured that Jokic will surpass Shaq barring any serious injury he may suffer.
You’re seeing in these playoffs why Jokic deserves the MVP. The Nuggets are pretty pedestrian when he doesn’t carry the load. Totally agree with the Shaq thing. Shaq was always preoccupied with everything but basketball. He was still great, but imagine how much greater he would have been if he’d developed a consistent 15 foot jumper, improved his free throw shooting, thus eliminating the hack a Shaq, and kept himself in better physical shape, a leaner Shaq to stave off wear and tear on his body. That Shaq and Kobe staying together would have absolutely dominated for the better part of a decade or even more.
No when Murray isn’t closing games the Nuggets are trash. Jokic is being exposed.
just found your channel, like your stuff man! When you referenced Shaq, Vader, and Simon Biles in one analogy, had me rolling!!!
Nice to meet you and welcome aboard. Prepare yourself for high octane shenanigans
God is good
All the time
Bro, you're videos are so funny that whenever I'm in a bad mood I watch one of your videos (or therealmindcrime's reaction to it hehe) and am instantly happy again. Keep bringing joy to this platform. Thanks.
I'm thrilled and honored to be of service, and I'm glad to be able to make your day a little brighter man!
@@DaCommishDude 🙏
Shaq is one of the, if not THE, best Center of all time. i personally think he was. But with that being said, Kobe was 100% correct. Shaq STILL, even with that praise, wasted his potential. It's insane the player that could have come out of Shaq if he had Mamba mentality.
Shaq+ mamba mentality= goat
For whatever reason Shaq seems worried that Jokic is going to surpass his MVPs etc....its honestly a bad look for him
A division record tiebreaker is subjective lol. No way is SGA more deserving of the MVP than Jokic or Doncic
Luka on 3rd is so pathetic - fuck this trash US media
So glad EJ has never been afraid to call the crew out on their shit, especially Shaq.
a lot of people were betting On Luka
Ehh, I heard to many people cry Jokic couldn't play defense, last year to defend Embiid. If Luka won I would call hypocrisy on their asses till October.
I wasn’t surprised that Jokic won MVP. I thought it was between him and SGA
If jokic was an american I'd assume he'd thrown that shade back in shaqs face. But jokic is humble and doesn't really care. Horses over basketball, gotta love it.
I thought Shaq praised Jokic
He kept disrespecting, but didn’t want to sound petty so balanced it out lol
He did until he realized jokic might pass him all time
Shaq will praise a player (in particular, a big guy) all the way up to the point that they start threatening to surpass him. Then he turns into a petty jealous diva.
@@ssk58607 when did he disrespected him? He gave credit to Shai Alexander and said why he thought Shai should be MVP.
"Imagine how powerful Darth Vader would have been if he wasn't trying to impersonate Simone Biles"
I can't... 🤣🤣
Luka robbed
Shai’s season was literally better what drugs are you smoking? Nobody got robbed (and this is coming from a Thunder fan). The Nuggets plus/minus when Jokic is on the court versus when he’s off the court is the reason why he deserves it
I think you nailed it. I think your Vader analogy is about perfect. I have nothing to add.
Where is Lebron and Steph Curry for this? They should be outraged about this
Shit Kobe has a case and if we going by that Michael should have 8 and bron should have six easily
@@kingspeech2240no D-Rose deserved that MVP
Seeing Shaq humbled is almost as exciting as seeing Jokic slam-dunk and step-back three in the same game just to troll his haters.
Kareem won 6 MVPs just for reference
This is why Tim Duncan will always be my favorite big man if not player of all time. He gave his all, put in the time and effort and left it all out on the court. Being the greatest power forward in the process. Then when it was over, he quietly stepped away and is enjoying his life while occasionally showing up to help the next generation.
I agree that shai deserved it a bit more but jokic’s numbers are bonkers lol but if he gets beaten down by the wolves jokic won’t sniff another one for a while
It's a regular season award. And this season lots of the media who vote on it were saying Embiid was the MVP again until he got hurt. And look what happened to Embiid in the playoffs last season. At least Jokic has a ring. Embiid is the only MVP in history to never play in a conference finals.
I love how commish can go from being hilarious to then giving the most nuanced take on a situation out of all nba media.
Shaq is just insecure about his all time standing because the Joker is coming for him^^
Jokic most humble player , we just love him.
Lol pass the salt
