Nikola Jokic showed everybody why he is the MVP don’t get twisted💯
No question he is truly amazing and poised
When you tell a Serb to his face that he didn't deserve something, it causes a very dangerous emotion that I don't know how to translate, so I'll write it in Serbian - INAT
Thugkola
The Nuggets fans have every right to feel the way they feel because the media is backtracking what they said.
Nuggets fans arepoozies
I think part of it was how utterly outclassed they looked in the first 2 games... and the second game without the dpoy. But yeah not just the media, tons of people have no foresight when it comes to the playoffs. Their minds change with the most recent game.
@@mikewilliams9069show us on the doll where the nuggets hurt you
@@gnomechomsky2524 yokic is akhoodrattthug
Luky gobert came nack, killed energy
That's why Jokic is not only MVP, but heading to top 10 ever status. As someone said, he is playing against his opponents coach, not players. I have never seen a player like this.
Just needs this ring tbh to already be a borderline Top 10 player of all time.
How could Austin Rivers doubt Jokic after playing with him for two seasons
His father is Glenn Rivers. What do you expect?
Because he’s a tool
@@eyesonthepiescctf does that have to do with anything lol
He’s been playing for his dad too long 😂
these hoes aint loyal
Perk: I was wrong...again...
😂😂
Cause perkin is blind in the eyes of many....
Sports media is a circus, just hot takes based on emotion
Crazy thing is all of y’all would do the exact same thing if given their jobs
Sports fandom and discourse is all about what have you done for me lately
Yeah why do we listen to this clown Perkins
@@macmillysoanti4357nah watch first things first and you'll see the difference. Also these people call themselves "analysts". That word has a meaning
@@macmillysoanti4357 yeah fr they're just youtube commentors with a bigger platform
Thanks for making him mad Shaq
This Denver Nuggets core have come back from down 3 - 1 twice
Facts
In the same playoffs, back to back as well
Rigged
Core? You mean just Jokic and Murray?
@@mikewilliams9069girl please
Love seeing Gordon get his redemption on the entire NBA for them Dunk Contest snubs. Boy done went and got his ring and was a major part of it! Salute!
Tnt/shaq poked the bear. Telling him to his face he was unworthy - at the exact moment he got the 3rd mvp!!! Joker will explode even more 🧨🧨🧨
Bice Jos koji MVP da magarac shak pukne od muke.SRBIN je to ne diraj lava dok spava.
Shoutout to Aaron Gordon for playing the point forward position and continuously bringing the basketball up court 27/6/7 on 11/12 shooting from the field and perfect from the free throw line.
The Denver Nuggets is Aaron Gordon's "happy place".
It’s amazing how quickly people can jump on and jump off a bandwagon
A lot of people don't understand what they're watching with Jokic and the Nuggets. Denver plays a different style than the casuals are used to seeing, so they don't really get why they're such a great team, or why Jokic is an indisputable all time GOAT. They don't realize how lucky they are to get to see him play in his prime.
And you do bc you are smarter right? It’s basketball , it’s not that hard to understand but make yourself feel intelligent on RUclips .
@@ETP1287aww! Poor thing! 🥺
@@ETP1287 he is right tho, a lot of people still doesn't realize how good Jokic is
@@ETP1287 he is a 100% right, let it sink in your head that jokic is a generational talent. None like unto him
Absolutely love it when ESPN has to backpedal😌
Air Gordon dominating
Coach Malone, played clips of you guys to motivate his team. Probably the only time Jokic will get to hear your silly takes, 'cause he doesn't own ANY social media accounts.
Best comment. Jokic hand no idea what the talking heads were saying about him until that video. Jokic whole demeanor changed. I hope they release the video that Malone had made after we repeat
@@joed7185 Yep. He really was provoked. It was obvious. He posted up in the paint harder than usual and fought for points. Also, a rare low 7 assists. Then that anvil drop on Anthony Edwards. Oh man, they done made a cold-blooded killer angry.
In the first two games Murray was not getting past screens - maybe due to injury. But in the last two games Murray got over the screens and that makes the Denver offense lethal.
Yes he refreshed from the break in between
That "chair" on Gobert was nasty. Just like Jamal Crawford said "Rudy just doing moonwalk right now"
Loved that!
They were ready to dance on Jokic’s grave if he have gotten swept or even went down 4-1. Happy they came back and won to tie it up
Thanks for making him mad Shaq!
People Pick and choose when they think jokic cares.
The best part is Jokic doesn't care
Let’s go Denver Nuggets 🎉 👍🏽 🔥
At the 6:00 mark, Nikola Jokic using up the clock on the in-bounds plays shows his BB mental IQ is off the charts.
He seen soccer players do that all the time
Who are these bums out here commenting on players like jokic as if they have any credibility lmao
Now the media saying the Nuggets will sweep the wolves 😂
Lies they can’t sweep anymore so none has said that.
@@ETP1287 I guess the joke went completely over your head 😆
@@jqentertainment6966he swept the joke
Now they want to act like they had Denver still. Everyone counted Denver out.
Everyone except for Denver fans.
Every team in the playoffs going up 2-0 then looking 2-0 so it’s really hard to predict who’s gonna win any series
I never did. You don’t count out a team like that. You really think Malone isn’t going to make the proper adjustments??? They are the defending champions for a reason. Jokic is the best player in the nba
The media thought it was first to win 2 games not 4 😂💀
At the 5:15 mark, Coach Malone having Aaron Gordon bring the ball upcourt 27 times and taking the pressure off Jamal and Nikola was something in which the Timberwolves had no answer. I wonder if in game 5 we will see any Wolves adjustments on that? There may be nothing they can successfully do about it. GO NUGGS!
I didnt see these last two games coming the way they played out. It's like it's 2 different teams playing compared to the first 2. Jokic gets what ever he wants in the paint. AG is the difference maker though. He can guard your best player and is always at the right place at the right time.
“When a team backs you into a corner you come out swinging” -Tim Ledger
Tim Ledger is a wise analyst. He does get caught as a prisoner of the moment.
Nuggets are coming back and taking it calling it right now nuggets figured these boys out
“I was wrong” now where’s Shaq at?
Thing is Shaq has never denied Jokic’s greatness . He just was upset with the MVP voting due to himself not winning more than one . I truly believe he is a fan of Jokic
I swear Every Time Kendrick Perkins supports a team and says they're going to win something it instantly backfires on him. He should stop endorsing his teams if he really wants then to win lol
The Perk Curse.
7:10 i think Big Perk is hungry bruh 😂😂😂
😂😂
Man I thought someone there flushed a toilet!
The road team team winning every game makes me nervous but hard to beat Denver in Denver 3 times in a row.
I’m surprised they didn’t bleep out ANT man 😂😂😂
Jimmy Butler was right. Other than Ant these Wolves don’t got that dawg in them.
Good series right here Anthony Edwards is going nuts out there, need more from Karl Anthony if the Timberwolf’s have a chance of advancing
Towns has all the talent for greatness, but he's soft as Charmin.
am i trippin or did they let that word slide on live espn tv lol
Gobert missed game 2 for the birth of Jokic's grandson.
😂
So Nikola truly is Gobert's daddy. Nice.
MVP
Respect to Joker, but Aaron Gordon was the reason they won that game...Jokic himself said that, so don't.
I had no doubt the nuggets would bounce back after coming back 3-1 years ago i knew they could handle anything thrown at them
i loved when perkins says "nikola jokic the mvp"🤣🤣
So Ant said, "keep talking" and Jamal said nothing? He should be concerned. The Nuggets don't care what you have to say Ant. It's all business. We're not week like KD, Booker & Beal. This is a team with championship experience. You're good but you haven't been to the top.
*weak
They are definitely not making it obvious they want anthony edwards as the new face of the nba. They talked more about him, just like they do with lebron
Wow AuStin I’m impressed with your analytical and communication skills 😊
"Compacity" Perk says 🥜 🥜......why is this man still on first take
Ebonics?
How can you be defensive player of the year and can't bully people, be physical... broo 4!!
Its simple to say that "u guys suck at your job...."
Perkins is by far one of the better hires at ESPN. HE KEEPS IT 💯
I love his energy…
What did he say!?
Even so called smart media Bill Simmons and Russillo counted Denver out and made a hypothetical "exercise" on the Wolves running the league after they took a 2-0 series.
Jokic is great and he earned his mvp's but shaq and Kobe should have more mvp's too. They earned them but weren't rewarded.
ESPN analysts are so quick to jump into conclusion. They are always prisoners of the moment.
Never Underestimate The Heart of a Champion.
When Jokis is on the floor, every Nugget's player is a threat.
Winner of this series winning it all!
Anyone else feel like malika should own up to this too? Kind of acting like it is rest of the media’s fault. Either way, the series can go either way still. Denver shot ridiculously hot, but Minnesota are giving up a ton of catch and shoot opportunities.
Nuggets will win this in 6. Ant is acting too overconfident despite the two losses. Jokic's supporting cast will be too much for Minnesota in games 5 and 6.
Malika hates black people. She's a huge jokic fan
They need to praise the denver coach
Jokic dominated AD and Gobert
Timberwolves win Game 5
Rivers: I apologize, Timberwolves is going to win the Championship
Nuggets win Game 6
Rivers: I apologize, Nuggets going to win the Championship
Game 7: I apologize, Celtics winning the Championship
We need the Nuggets to finish this series in six cause I gotta pickup my wife at the airport on Sunday evening 🤣🤣🤣
Leave her at the airport 😂. She'll understand.
@@franklin8618 She said she would take an Uber 🤣 but I'm betting NUGGS in Six
And it just got better 😄
AG is a better more athletic and controlled version of Draymond.
Everyone in the comments lying. Nobody seen Denver and Minnesota both losing both games at home. The way Minnesota did them the first 2 games i thought it would possibly be a sweep or 5 games.
4 straight kinda sweep incoming
When you never tire of being wrong
Me as a Nuggets fan, all I can say is that we haven´t achieved anything yet ´cause we still have to beat the Wolves twice more if we want to win the series!! And that´s not gonna be easy. So if you're not a Wolves fan, wish us luck! (-:
Why is everyone apologizing for giving a legit take!!!
Listening to Austin rivers is a tough listen. He has some of the worst takes I’ve ever heard
WE WANT MORE OF THE DEFENDING NBA CHAMPIONS DENVER NUGGETS PLEASE
Denver has the Key .. The Best Center since AKEEM
You are beautiful woman. Love from Serbia.
Well, it's understandable that people wrote off the nuggets. I never seen them (jokic in particular) sink to that low in game 2. As a nuggets fan (and huge jokic fan), I was shell shocked. After a couple of days, I felt that if they could respond well in game 3 they could do it. It definitely stretched my belief though haha
You have to remember ag was the guy in Orlando. 30 points a night
These guys aren't students of history if they don't realize that a playoff team can look flat and dominated in their first 2 games at home and come back and dominate and win a series. This has been done time after time in the NBA, NHL, and MLB. You win 4, not 3, for a reason. Add to that these guys are battle tested but sometimes it isn't even the champs that do this. I knew the Nuggest would play better and make adjustments. How effective, I had no idea. But no surprise whatsoever they turned this around. Now I expect Minnesota to play well and be competitive in game 5 in Denver.
To: Malika.... "SHUDDUP, MEG!!!"
From: US ALL...."SHUDDUP, MEG!!!"
Nobody remembered Denver closed a series twice down by 3 😅
You know you don't need to watch any clips as long as perks is part of it.
AG had the best game of his life, are they not suppose to win?
You obviously don't know ball. AG is like that and the piece that put Denver over the hump
If it’s not AG it’s gon be somebody else like MPJ. Nuggets just too diverse in their attack.
They backtrackin so theres not another motivating reel for coach to use 😂😂
When Shaq dissed Joker, he woke the sleeping giant, poked the bear, yanked on the tiger's tail, played with fire, tugged on Superman's cape, spit into the wind, pulled the mask of the Lone Range and messed around with Jim.
The champs are still the champs until otherwise. Playoffs is a game of adjustments and superstars taking over. The problem with Minnesota AE superstar will show up every game he as arrived. But he not getting enough help from the others like Kat.... the other guys on Minnesota need to do more.
As a Denver fan I love Ant man! Best series in the playoffs!
Nikola jokic Jamal murray, Aaron Gordon, mpj, and my fellow nuggets keep doing what you do well brothers. Iam so f..kin proud of you guys. You showed me the quality caliber team you are. Go nuggets.
Bro cooking people and limiting possessions for the opponent,big brain move,master at managing the game b
Malika defending her secret crush A•E
A Team that can play well under pressure is scary
There should be a daily ESPN show of just "analysts" apologizing for every one of their bad takes
Ratings would be off the charts
No way they already counted out OKC & Dallas.Malika just said “Boston needs to get ready for a finals matchup against Denver or Minnesota”. As a mavs fan i don’t know how they keep sleeping on this team. They did it to us 2 years ago then we ended up going all the way to the conference finals & lost to a possessed Steph Curry. Dallas is not going away easy
Imma need a Time Wasted Counter for Jokic so I can frame it on my mantelpiece. Guy is playing the game within the rules. If you don’t like the gamesmanship, maybe don’t go down by 15 allowing this to happen. All it does is eliminate garbage time buckets and comebacks due to collapses.
Anybody notice when ant said “we love dat” and then quickly changed it to “I love dat”… interesting
Go Nuggets! 🔥🏀⚒️
Gordon had a lot to do with it.
It’s called clock management not wasting time
Isn't time stopped after point or any delay, like in Europe??
The NBA, just like WWE, has to extend series as much as possible..
Can’t believe they didn’t censor AE in that.
