Shot out to Malika and to ESPN for putting up all this Jokic and Denver content, is really a breath of fresh air and showing that they listen to the nba hardcore fans not just the casual fans
I like when they acknowledge they picked the Suns lol. Ppl forget many had Suns beating the Nuggets. Then after Suns lose ppl start talking about how Denver has been together for years
ESPN is trying to wash their image so they can say later that they always respected Jokic and the nuggets. Which is not true but that's how media works
@@samantharay6098 Jokic is easily the best player the last three years and apart from maybe 2020-21, it was never even close tbh. Jokic is known as a ‘boring’ player, but that’s because nobody has seen him play… he hits circus shots, he is one of the best passers ever, his footwork is some of the best ever, and he would easily be averaging a 30 point triple double if they gave him the same calls Embiid gets…
@@rimimimimimimimim4170 he does average that in the playoffs, unlike embitch, so its rather him CHOOSING not to do it in the season in order to involve his teammates as much as possible, but whne he decides to go for his shots, no one can do anything about that, not even refs
Mark Jackson: “one of the greatest to ever play the game.” Also Mark Jackson: “I left him off my top 5 ballot by mistake, even though he’s having his best season ever.”
It's the only thing they have left to cover while waiting on the ECF to wrap up. Trust me I don't think they'd be talking about them if they had the choice, they've been slighting them all year
Idk whether to be happy that Jokic is finally getting the praise that he deserves, or to be pissed because it took everyone this long to notice him. He's been dominant for quite a while now but people are acting like he only just became a superstar recently.
I can roll with that one. I am SO SICK of people comparing Luka to Bird. Jokic so much more like Bird because of the ability to catch you off guard in the flick of a finger (last second processing speed decision making and imaginative passes without having to dribble the ball into the ground for 10 seconds+)
I think jokic is jokic but if we're going to take certain aspects out of players I'll go with larry bird's passing, iq and shooting hakeems footwork tricks and fakes and Timmy D's fundamentals
This two man game of Jokic and Jamal couldn't be stop. Jokic has been guarded by AD, Gobert and Ayton with no answer. Same with Jamal. If Heat comes out in the East, its gonna be a 🧹.
@@ykg2393 Actually, I snuck in MJ out of respect. MJ never had a playoff season run like this though, at least offensively (~35 PER). Lebron did in 2009 (~37.5 PER), but it wasn't enough vs Orlando That doesn't make Lebron better, but that was the best postseason individual performance ever.
@@lipmajesty383 imagine actually believing this nba and national media sabotaging themselves so hard confining the fanbase to big market team fanboys losing most people who live in small markets losing the international market potential losing ppl who care about sports skill, losing people who care about clever drafting and development more money lol
I can't decide if I want Kendrick Perkins excluded from all segments about Jokic and the Nuggets or I want him on all of them.. I'm just petty like that 😅
Shoutout to Malika and ESPN for putting together this clip of the Denver Nuggets and Jokic from the time he got started playing basketball to the the moment he got drafted and the trials and tribulations he went through
It's about time.nuggets gets the respect they need. They just had 2 show u. 2 prove u wrong. Like miyagi do karate says? Always open eye!!! Love ya nuggets..
Denvers win is so satisfying and proves that you can win without forming superteams, manipulating the system to stack the deck in your favor, and having faith in your team, with the organization instead of taking multiple shortcuts. Pundits wonder why Lebron gets so much hate inspite of what he has accomplished. Well this iDenver win right here is something that Lebron will never have.
NIKOLA JOKIĆ IS: HIM THE TRUTH THE ANSWER THE BIG TICKET THE BIG FUNDAMENTAL ☆☆☆NOT SINCE WILT!!!!!☆☆☆ SUPERMAN(APPROVED BUY SHAQ😉) NEO(HE FIGURED OUT THE MATRIX) THE BEST HUMAN BEING ❤️ THE BIG TIPPER THE JOKER BIG HONEY WCF MVP👊 THE BEST PLAYER IN THE GAME THE REAL MVP To be continued....
these guys finally cover the teams in the finals, and they act like they doing us a favor. that's your entire job, perkins. quit crying about malone calling you out, and do your job.
How you gonna call Curry and Giannis playoff chokers? At most I could get behind the idea that Giannis is limited offensively and is scared to go to the line with the game on the line. But Choker? C'mon Bruh.
Their excuse for talking about the lakers so much is that they have 17 championships? That’s a dumb excuse cause they spent too much time wondering if Lebron would retire. So instead of covering the history of the nuggets like some have they talk about a fake rumor around the clock. ESPN just needs to admit they covered the Lakers way too much
Jokic plays basketball the way every player should. It's not just that he can make those passes, it's that he's willing to. He's looking for those passes and his team has been built around that. LeBron is much the same way. Golden State plays like that and have won 4 titles for their effort. Every player on every team needs to be looking for the smartest play first. Embid is probably a better individual (i.e. 1-on-1) player but Jokic is better for your team.
The pick and roll of Jokic and Murray is so hard to guard. It is so fluid and dynamic that it changes on a dime depending on the defense. Another point of emphasis is the inclusion of other players such as cutters like Gordon and Bruce Brown and wing shooters like KCP and MPJ. The defense should always be on cue. Jokic have such a high basketball IQ that he breaks down defenses through fake dribble hand offs and driving to the basket only to pass or lob to a cutting Gordon.
He named everyone. It's not the full interview. He was making a point that whoever we face in the finals it will be a complete team. The hardest matchup.
What kind of terribly sick place do you people live in over there in the US? Kendrick Perkins is still being asked for his opinion on Nikola Jokic and you all think that is acceptable? Seriously? Very sick society indeed.
"There's only one guy who's done what Joker has done... Nikola Jokic. You noticing any patterns here. The defense letting him play so good because he's white." - Kendrick Perkins, probably
Shot out to Malika and to ESPN for putting up all this Jokic and Denver content, is really a breath of fresh air and showing that they listen to the nba hardcore fans not just the casual fans
It only took them being one of only three teams left playing basketball games to get covered as the number 1 seed. Well done, EPSN. Well done.
Also it took the TNT crew(chuck) taking shots at them to make it happen.
I like when they acknowledge they picked the Suns lol. Ppl forget many had Suns beating the Nuggets. Then after Suns lose ppl start talking about how Denver has been together for years
ESPN is trying to wash their image so they can say later that they always respected Jokic and the nuggets. Which is not true but that's how media works
Lol it's because Denver made the finals nothing to do with them suddenly having a change of heart
FINALLY!!!!! An actual segment about a team other than the team from Southern California......
That smile/laugh from AD was the best moment of the series 😂😂
add to that is the nonchalant reaction of Jokic to him like, "heh"😐
well. its respect... AD play good too..he contest hard..still, nuggets just too powerful..
Omg there’s actually nuggets coverage thank you!
The Nuggets have been soooo fun to watch, like omg.... they revived team basketball
Jokic brought me back to the game. I'm not the only one.
Sad how late the NBA is in marketing their talent...

and now they are crying about it
Lmao I know, love that they changed
Mark Jackson: “one of the greatest to ever play the game.”
Also Mark Jackson: “I left him off my top 5 ballot by mistake, even though he’s having his best season ever.”
Bull. You don’t touch the top 3 from your top 5, and that’s Embidd, Giannis and Jokic. He left Jokic completely off. Why would you even do that.
Mark Jackson is truly a resentful jackass 🤡 clown. His apology was so fake. I used to like him a long time ago
"mama there goes that man "
@@49DubsPXKbecause he's racist.
@@49DubsPXKcuz he's racist
The IQ jOKIC possess is just incredible
Probably better then Brons
Nice to see Nuggets coverage only took them making the finals
All good. 4 more wins!
So good they can't ignore you
ESPN is covering the nuggets? Well thats new
It's the only thing they have left to cover while waiting on the ECF to wrap up. Trust me I don't think they'd be talking about them if they had the choice, they've been slighting them all year
Malika always been on Nuggets. Spears is doing a turn like most of rest of ESPN "experts."
Perk is hurting on the inside have to talk about the Joker
He’s thinking “ But Embiid“
Well there is literally NO new footage of the Lakers to show lol
@@UncleAir LeBron will post a video barbecuing…
And then 4-5 more videos about the Lakers
“Is LeBron contemplating life after the Lakers”
Jokic =Bird+Dirk+Magic
Ykb
With a hint of Duncan(not too flashy and wants the ball at crunch time and clutch)
@@jayvee8914 no. I get why you compare him to Duncan because he isn’t “flashy”, but no.
@@Jay2K_SZN just my opinion, and I don't care about your opinion, so who cares on your opinion
Kendrick Perkins giving the Joker praise is Poetic Justice
Yeah espn, wee need more Jokić and Nuggets content!!!!! 💯
It's nice to see the Joker get's recogniton he deserves
Idk whether to be happy that Jokic is finally getting the praise that he deserves, or to be pissed because it took everyone this long to notice him. He's been dominant for quite a while now but people are acting like he only just became a superstar recently.
I finally got Jokic player comparison. He’s a Bill Walton + Larry Bird hybrid
I can roll with that one. I am SO SICK of people comparing Luka to Bird. Jokic so much more like Bird because of the ability to catch you off guard in the flick of a finger (last second processing speed decision making and imaginative passes without having to dribble the ball into the ground for 10 seconds+)
You can't compare him to anyone Jokic is Jokic... That's my opinion, but yeah very good comparison
I think jokic is jokic but if we're going to take certain aspects out of players I'll go with larry bird's passing, iq and shooting hakeems footwork tricks and fakes and Timmy D's fundamentals
Facts he both of them are OTB the offensive touch of Dirk also
Or Tim Duncan (post game and simplicity) and Boris diaw (his passing).
Is this really ESPN? Are the really finally talking about the NUggets?!. I can't believe it
Now we want Joker signature shoes
This two man game of Jokic and Jamal couldn't be stop. Jokic has been guarded by AD, Gobert and Ayton with no answer. Same with Jamal. If Heat comes out in the East, its gonna be a 🧹.
Celtics match up well with Denver and Lakers would have been able to if they had a center playing next to AD.

We just might be witnessing the goat's first chip run. Feels like watching MJ or Lebron's first big runs. Spectacular dominance
Snuck in lebron 💀💀💀

People are talking about Nuggets…
Not ESPN
25-30 about Lebron and Lakers…
5-6 videos about the Nuggets
maybe cuz espn is in LA...

Love how the media is praising Jokić all of a sudden. Probably feels bad about robbing him of that MVP 😂
they don't care about that, they only doing it because Malone and Chuck call them out so they need to wash their image
It is about time they are being talked about on american media
The denver pathway to the finals: destroy everyone in sight
Laker fan here much respects to the nuggets its hard to hate on that team and jokic good luck and yall deserve your first championship
This video should’ve been titled “How did the Denver Nuggets made it to the Finals despite ESPN’s choking on LBJs…..yeah”. :)
Perkins is on the show :
get ready everybody , he’s about to say something stupid “
ESPN, Mark Jackson, and Kendrick talking Nuggets and Jokic because they ran out of reasons as to why they couldnt.
Is this like an apology by ESPN for ignoring them all season?
I love watching Jokic play
"They the best duo bc of those two guys"😂
Kendrick Porkins talking about Jokic, Oh the irony xD
ESPN in this segment coming in with the same energy of a kid writing a personal reflection essay in detention.
The layoff is good. Whoever wins Celtics vs Heat will be worn down less time to recover while Nuggets will be fully rested.
I can't decide if I want Kendrick Perkins excluded from all segments about Jokic and the Nuggets or I want him on all of them..
I'm just petty like that 😅
no man i love kendricks pettiness "hey man here u are talkin about how we aint on tv, alright man now ure on tv"

As of Sports. As i am. I Honor that Ball. It's what grew me. As well as music. My other parents i listened to. I played and watched
That smile from AD after Jokic hit that 3 was priceless 😂😂😂
Gotta say Jokic Murray and the nuggets getting their recognition is nice
He sacrifice the mvp for a championship
Looks compelling to me 😎
I do appreciate Malika admitting she was wrong - just one more reason to love her.
ESPN ran out of LeBron topics and finally talking about what matters lol smh
Jokic is the smartest big man in the league.💪🏀
Jalen Rose had been on the Jokic train forever. He is the first on ESPN talking about how great Jokic was.
Yo I didn't know Greg ostertag was still in the league 🤯
He does look like Greg Ostertag
so shrunking when getting older is true. He lost a lot of height

Song?

that's your entire job, perkins. quit crying about malone calling you out, and do your job.
The goat
I believe if the nuggets win 4 games, they will win the championship
I don’t know bro that is a bold take, I don’t think it happens 🤷🏾♂️
But those will still, somehow, add up to four more moral victories for the Lakers.
ESPN talking about other teams after being called out.
They Swept the Lakers! The end
Joker is the best player indeed!
Jokic is way better than playoff chokers like Curry and Giannis. Curry got humbled so bad by the King it was a treat to watch 🤣Lebron has 4 fmvp's btw
How did Giannis do in the Finals clinching game 6? Thanks for playing!
How you gonna call Curry and Giannis playoff chokers?
At most I could get behind the idea that Giannis is limited offensively and is scared to go to the line with the game on the line. But Choker? C'mon Bruh.
Lebron 🥱
As a nuggets fan this is a smooth brain take for sure
They all talk nicely about Jok...I am shocked...
A couple daaaaaays! We have two more days!
Denver getting all this rest time.
Dope.
Nuggets in 5
They reviewed the Aaron Gordon dunk in game originally they called it a charged them changed it
Yay non Lakers topic so refreshing
It is not even Lakers is LeLakers.
Until LeBron puts out a tweet about buying a pack of gum…
Then everyone’s gonna be talking about the Lakers again
Who that was he do the dunk for Denver? was it aaaron gordon
Who wants to See and hear kendrick perkins?
Lmao why Kendrick say gobert name like that 😂
They playing the triangle offense.
