Giving it to Jokic this year was a make up for snubbing him last year. SGA deserved it this year big time. I don't think the award means much at all because it doesn't prove they're the best player during the season and is voted completely by sports writers. Multiple players will get snubbed every year just like the all-star teams. Jordan should've realistically won seven or eight.
Joker has done many things LeCon has never done, including LEADING a regular team of non superstars to a championship. LeCon Blames is as deserving of the GOAT title as Jennie is of running the Fakers. 😂
I’ve seen some idiots complain that the MVP was rigged in favor of Jokic as if the NBA wants their most prestigious regular season award to go to a “boring” player on a small market team
Let me say what many people either aren't noticing or don't want to say because they don't want that kind of conflict. Most people whining about Jokic winning another MVP award are mad because of racial reasons. It's the same reason they hated Steve Nash winning MVP.
I like that you pointed out that Kobe got robbed but you should really make an extra video on Shaq being a disrespectful little crybaby live on TV while interviewing Jokic. Dude needs to be called out.
@niels9203 I think it's both of those issues, with Shaq. He wants to defend his legacy and he's also got a bias against white players. I hate to say it, but the pattern of his takes over the decades reveals a clear pattern on that. He attempts to veil it slightly but only just enough so people who don't want to see it won't. Consider why this particular MVP pick is the one that triggered Shaq the most to the point that he pulled a Kanye West at the VMAs. It's because it triggers him in not only 1 way, but 2.
Shaq wasn’t a crybaby . He just stated his opinion. He went out of his way to say he loved the Joker and called him the best big Man in the league. He just thought Shai was a little better. No big deal. The man is paid to give his opinion.
Yeah and obviously if young Shai keeps it up he'll get his accolades in due time. Same goes for ANT and other rising stars. This is supposed to motivate such players to keep stepping up their game. We've had questionable winners in the past but it's meant to go to the most deserving player during the regular season. It's really that simple.
@@skap_attack It was a GOOD thing that Embiid got the pity award, because the MVP curse has been striking for almost a decade! And will probably strike him again this season unfortunately...
Jokic may not be a typical superstar, but he is dominating the game. It's Most Valuable Player, not Most Flashy Player. Some people don't seem to get that.
Dominating on all fronts. Historic playoff game 3. . . historic never-before seen stats! WTF. . .dude's a legend. "Jokic finished with 24 points, 14 rebounds, 9 assists, 3 blocks, and 3 steals, becoming the first player in NBA playoff history to record this line in a game."
They crying because Nikola plays for his Denver team and people who loves them and support, to make them happy, not to kiss the golden trophy at the end!
The other problem some people have is that they don't understand that there is a completely separate award for scoring, so they greatly over-value scoring in the MVP calculations.
It was the grape allegations. The league couldn’t have its most “valuable” player be involved in such a scandal. Kobe sowed his legacy when he decided to cheat on his wife.
All across the media it's been "SGA should've won." Funny how 2 of the 3 finalists were white and NBA media says the black guy should've won. NBA twitter been saying the same thing. I remember the "If Larry Bird was black he'd be just another player" comments. And Kenrick Perkins comments last season about Jokic. It's all so disgusting.
Arenas saying joker's the worst mvp in the last 40 years wreaks of jealousy. He never was an mvp himself nor was he even in contention to be one. I smell lemedia....
I feel like most of the voters truly knew who should’ve won the whole time but to save their jobs as “pundits” they had to regurgitate what the majority of the crowd wanted to hear
@@chakra.blurrr LeBron once said literally: a two handed sharp shooter with eyes in the back of his head, grabbing double digit rebounds in an era with Ewing, Olajuwon, Laimbeer and Moses Malone would excel in any era. He‘d be an absolute menace as a small ball center and could easily play the three and the four in the modern game. His only weakness would be drop coverage defense because of his slow feet, but you know what? Compared to Luka even Larry looks like a sprinter and Luka plays pretty solid defense this season, beside everything else he does better than anyone.
Kobe should have at least 3 mvps. IMO, he was blackballed because of the Colorado accusation and the way Shaq left the Lakers. Back then lots of “analysts” hated him and David Stern did not want to promote Kobe. Its incredible he did not win between 2004 to 2007 where he carried the Lakers to a finals with an out of shape and injured Shaq and made the playoffs and push the Suns to the brink with a depleted squad after the Shaq trade. These awards are bunch of political bs.
Before you canonize Kobe, let's see what he had to say about the "Colorado accusation": "First, I want to apologize directly to the young woman involved in this incident. I want to apologize to her for my behavior that night and for the consequences she has suffered in the past year. Although this year has been incredibly difficult for me personally, I can only imagine the pain she has had to endure. I also want to apologize to her parents and family members, and to my family and friends and supporters, and to the citizens of Eagle, Colo. "I also want to make it clear that I do not question the motives of this young woman. No money has been paid to this woman. She has agreed that this statement will not be used against me in the civil case. Although I truly believe this encounter between us was consensual, I recognize now that she did not and does not view this incident the same way I did. After months of reviewing discovery, listening to her attorney, and even her testimony in person, I now understand how she feels that she did not consent to this encounter."
@@mc76 Same lady that had 3 male sperm samples in her underwear when she went to the police to make the allegation. LMAO If Kobe is guilty or not, only two people can answer that question. So what I say or what you say it does not matter. Stick to basketball clown.
Kobe was an all time great, for sure, but it is undeniable que was extremely individualistic in his game to the point of his decision making being compromised by his confidence. Jordan worked a bit on this, had valuable players around, Kobe trusted no one. He was so good it usually worked, but it is of common knowledge that moving the ball around more increases the chances of scoring, thus it is more efficient. What Im trying to say is , if kobe was not on a GREAT day (usually he was great), the chances of losing increased a lot. Take Harden for example, he has no rings, and will never have because he does not have the defensive ability and compromise Kobe had, but the attacking approach is the same. Im the best, i carry the ball and shoot. One worked a lot (kobe was far better) and the other one never works.
@@cezz1105 I mean if it takes 3 big men to guard you, not exactly a player I'd call "guardable". Jokic isn't even that athletic or big and tall for a big man which speaks volumes.
Jokic! Game 3: History in the making. . .again! "Jokic finished with 24 points, 14 rebounds, 9 assists, 3 blocks, and 3 steals, becoming the first player in NBA playoff history to record this line in a game."
top 10 career BPM: Jokic Jordan Lebron Magic Robinson Paul Bird Stockton Kawhi Durant Remove Jokic from the #1 spot, and every talking head would be saying this stat perfectly represents how good a player is. But because he's #1 it's somehow a 'flawed' statistic
Exactly. The stats "don't matter" talking point is stupid, especially since advanced stats help give the mainstream stats context. Yet the most subjective, the "eye test", is preferred by the GOAT gatekeepers.
We can finally move on to the future GOAT Debates of: Michael Jordan vs Victor Wembanyama, Michael Jordan vs Anthony Edwards, Michael Jordan vs Luka Doncic, Michael Jordan vs Nikola Jokic, Michael Jordan vs Jalen Brunson, Michael Jordan vs Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Michael Jordan vs Ja Morant, et cetera, et cetera. ✌️✌️✌️✌️
@@TheReelMcCoySCthe spacing on that team is absolutely trash. And why would you wanna start Kobe next to Jordan? Lmao they wouldn’t fit good together at all
Since they flipped the switch after the all star game, it's been quite enjoyable, especially the playoffs (even moreso after the divas of the 2010s got knocked out 1st round or diin't even make it in the playoffs)
I don't know...with that shutdown defense from Harden and LeFlop, it would be difficult. He might have to ignore load management so much he could average more than 30 minutes a game! Could a player really do that without fainting?
Not only that, I'm 100% positive Bron would sit out games vs Jordan's team. You know He would duck the smoke w/a fake injury and throw his team under the bus. 😎😂
He wouldn't average 60 because that would probably be unrealistic, but scoring 60 in any given game is possible yeah. He would be top scorer in the league no problem though, with like near 40 ppg.
The fact that lebron has 4 and kobe only 1 is mind-blowing. This guy just gets everything he wants and doesn't even deserve it, heck even his roty is debatable.
Lebron deserves at least 6 MVPs. Kobe has NEVER even led the league in VORP even ONCE 😭 Lebron has led the league in VORP 9 times. The basic stats, along with the advanced stats, show how vastly inferior Kobe was to LBJ. In fact, there’s a legitimate case Kobe is not even top 10 of all time. Lebron is at absolute worst top 3. There was 2 things Kobe was bette than Lebron at though. Grape and helicopter crashes.
@sdb7092 I wish Denver plays vs Knicks in finals, but I doubt they'll pass Minnesota, never say never, they come back from 1-3 twice a few seasons ago. I am Serbian and like to watch Jokić, but its not that I'm biased cuz of that to hate emflop, I didn't like to see LeFlop or harden (his travels and flops), its disgusting for viewers. Thatfraud had 20+ fts and more fta than fga lol, shaq didn't had that many when they had hack a shaq fauling him intentionally, I hope he never passes 2nd round
Just talking to my 14 year old about how good Jokic is. He asked me why people think Lebron is better than him. I sighed and said Jokic doesn’t have what Lebron has. Klutch Sports. LOL
Well, and Jokic isn't the proper, shall we say, "demographic" to please the empty skirts and suits at the Ethnic, Social justice and Politics Network. They had NBA Countdown on at the bowling alley tonight during my league, and Malika Andrews was already on the rag about Jokic.
The fact that Kobe only got it once proves it's A COMPLETE CRAP! Definitely should have more. Leflop deserves less and Steph should have at least 1 more.
Jokic will AGAIN easily lead the league in PER, VORP, BPM, WIN SHARES and WS/48. He SHOULD win the MVP again if he does those things. At least THAT's what precedent tells us.
Most important advanced stat is on/off court +- and Denver is -4 when Joker sits and +18 when he plays. If that isn't "valuable player" then I have no clue.
Michael Jordan in his 30s vs LeBron James in his 30s, you have to remember that Michael Jordan won his 4th and 5th League MVPS in his 30s …. LeBron James DID NOT WIN even ONE single League MVP in his 30s. Michael Jordan won TWO (2) NBA Regular Season MVP Awards from AGE 30 to AGE 40. LeBron James went A WHOLE DECADE without winning even ONE (1) NBA Regular Season MVP Award from AGE 30 to AGE 40. And NOW it’s too late for LeBron James to win his 5th League MVP in his 30s because LeBron James will be 40-years-old when the next NBA Michael Jordan Regular Season MVP Award-voting takes place. 🚒🚒🚒🚒🚒🚒🚒🚒🔥🔥🔥
Meanwhile Kareem won a MVP at 38 and Lemedia skips yet another opportunity for any comparison other than Jordan because it would expose the narrative even more. Why not mention that Kareem had better late career seasons to EARN(mostly) his points record? Could it be that they'd actually have to cover basketball and not Lenarratives?
@rollandcurtis874 hey bud this video was actually about Jokic. You just have to keep making everything about mj vs lebron in every video. Try watching the video next time. It’s not that hard.
Shaq talking about shai, hell I had Luka too over shai. Man averaged if you round up 34, 10 and 9 on damn near 50% shooting leading that mavs squad to a 5th seed in a loaded west with a lesser squad
Jokic! Hopefully he can turn it on vs the wolves. Hopefully the refs actually call offensive fouls properly, too... Hopefully Murray... Hope? It's slim
Congratulations, best analysis so far. He spoke the truth that everyone should speak. The majority's pride won't let them and they don't want to see the truth.

The sad part about kobe winning only one mvp award is that when he first hoisted up the trophy you can see him holding back tears. Kobe truly gave it his all, rip🙏
I actually disagree, I think he deserved one. He was a great player but he was only the clear cut best player in the league WHILE having the other metrics everyone uses to grade MVPs once. If you give Kobe more MVPs you're changing the criteria, which I'm fine with. But it has to be acknowledged
@@Drakoth01 that cool if you do but.Its seasons when he was unstoppable and had a roster that wasn't helping we team wins Kobe had to really put his team on his back pal was push by Kobe to be great.not like LeBron who got saved by players
@@kingjruck6507 I agree. But if that was the metric we used to judge MVPs Luka Doncic would have won this season. His team dealt with a lot of injuries and he dragged them to the 5th seed. That's what I mean. I'm not saying Kobe didn't deserve to win, but he only had one season that fits the criteria people mostly use to judge MVPs. For the record I thought Luka should have won this season.
@@Lifeofawarrior321because he wasn’t the chosen one. but he did way better in the finals with less. It ain’t no Lebron hate he brings it upon himself
@@arealone7863 Shaq is among the greatest frauds to ever dribble a basketball. The man was an offensive foul merchant. A product of the league office. If they actually made him play the game within the confines of the rules, we might not even remember his name by now. It’s not like he worked on his biggest weakness(foul shots) and he never took care of his body. That’s enough evidence to assume he would not have adjusted to the barrage of fouls he would have committed had the referees blew their whistles.
Well, Shaq had more post moves...well, no. Better shooter? No. Maybe a better passer...yeah not. Ball handling? Lol no. Well at least he was an asset in crunch time with his outside game and free throw...oof. Hmm. Is being huge and getting away with offensive fouls a skill?
@@brandontoofly5971 I literally see other black people calling Jokic the great white hype so people do hate on Jokic for racial reasons.

And yes, the basketball world is starting to rank Tim Duncan over LeBron James as well.🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀😆🏀🏀
Should’ve won 2009 but that’s it. 2003 lakers were a disaster so that years out. You don’t win mvp in 7th seed unless it’s an all time great season. Tim Duncan was the best player of that decade

@@Zemlja_je_ravnaLast year was 100% due to various biases. For starters Jokic played poorly late in the season and although they were the 1 seed, they were only a 53 win team compared to the 76ers who were a 54 win 3 seed plus with Embiid’s grumblings. Regardless Jokic still should’ve won. He was literally .2 assists away from being the third individual to average a triple double and with much better efficiency
@@night6724 He played well late in the season he won against both Bucks and Philadelphia 76ers, they had only 1 game where no one tried because it didn't matter. You are comparing west and the east, west is harder conference to play. You are just listening to stupid media spinners they will look for any reason to discredit him. Jokic led in every and each statistical number over Embiid except ppg, and Nuggets were top 5 defense in the league.
@@Zemlja_je_ravna plus Jokic played 69 games vs Embiid at 66. Embiid played the least amount of games for an MVP since Walton (excluding shortened seasons)
Same thing they used as a weak excuse to rob kobe for years now joker 🃏 is killing them off of it but this wasn't a problem when LeBron won 4 in 5 years i wonder why they care now 😒🤔
It took 3 bigs on the same team (all under the age of 32 btw) to finally "humanize" Joker. What I mean is Jokic has been so dominant over the past 4 years 3 players 6'10" tall and up to slow him down. You know Nikola respects them when he said he would have to clone himself in order to deal with what Minny is throwing at him.
Shai deserved MVP because his team is the number 1 seed despite being ranked 18th in the league week 1, he averaged 30 points and they’re the second youngest team in the league. He also averaged 5.5 rebounds, 6 assists and 1 block per game. Yes, basically the same amount of blocks as the center.
And now he’s being exposed yet again against any real interior defence (he’s been shut down by an old Dwight and under sized Draymond in the playoffs) it’s a watered down soft era with the worst big men in 40 years. Go ahead and whine about it below but he would be average in the 90’s. SGA should have won mvp as well there’s no doubt about it.
He has multiple 40pt games against 4x DPOY Gobert. It takes 3 bigs just to slow him down and yall saying he's getting exposed. I hope you know Kareem's era thought the 90s was soft too. You're not saying anything substantial hanging on to the 90s for dear life.
Definitely should’ve won it 4 straight times
NO DOUBT!

@@mc76 Same lady that had 3 male sperm samples in her underwear when she went to the police to make the allegation. LMAO If Kobe is guilty or not, only two people can answer that question. So what I say or what you say it does not matter. Stick to basketball clown.
@@mc76oh you are a clown
Kobe was an all time great, for sure, but it is undeniable que was extremely individualistic in his game to the point of his decision making being compromised by his confidence. Jordan worked a bit on this, had valuable players around, Kobe trusted no one. He was so good it usually worked, but it is of common knowledge that moving the ball around more increases the chances of scoring, thus it is more efficient. What Im trying to say is , if kobe was not on a GREAT day (usually he was great), the chances of losing increased a lot. Take Harden for example, he has no rings, and will never have because he does not have the defensive ability and compromise Kobe had, but the attacking approach is the same. Im the best, i carry the ball and shoot. One worked a lot (kobe was far better) and the other one never works.
Congratulations to Joker
Hopefully Denver can make it to the Conference Finals

@@cezz1105 I mean if it takes 3 big men to guard you, not exactly a player I'd call "guardable". Jokic isn't even that athletic or big and tall for a big man which speaks volumes.

"Jokic finished with 24 points, 14 rebounds, 9 assists, 3 blocks, and 3 steals, becoming the first player in NBA playoff history to record this line in a game."

To be fair, I think Jokic really is that good. He’s truly one of a kind and might be the best player I’ve ever seen with the eye test.

Remove Jokic from the #1 spot, and every talking head would be saying this stat perfectly represents how good a player is. But because he's #1 it's somehow a 'flawed' statistic

Exactly. The stats "don't matter" talking point is stupid, especially since advanced stats help give the mainstream stats context. Yet the most subjective, the "eye test", is preferred by the GOAT gatekeepers.

Would I be wrong for saying Jordan can score 60 ppg in this era😅
Edit: hot take
LOL I don't know about SIXTY...PER GAME. But Kobe and Jordan would each averaged 40-45 for an 82 game season EASILY.
I think he'd have several 60-point games for sure, anyway.
I don't know...with that shutdown defense from Harden and LeFlop, it would be difficult. He might have to ignore load management so much he could average more than 30 minutes a game! Could a player really do that without fainting?
Not only that, I'm 100% positive Bron would sit out games vs Jordan's team. You know He would duck the smoke w/a fake injury and throw his team under the bus. 😎😂
He wouldn't average 60 because that would probably be unrealistic, but scoring 60 in any given game is possible yeah.
He would be top scorer in the league no problem though, with like near 40 ppg.
The fact that lebron has 4 and kobe only 1 is mind-blowing. This guy just gets everything he wants and doesn't even deserve it, heck even his roty is debatable.

Lebron deserves at least 6 MVPs. Kobe has NEVER even led the league in VORP even ONCE 😭 Lebron has led the league in VORP 9 times.

I actually disagree, I think he deserved one. He was a great player but he was only the clear cut best player in the league WHILE having the other metrics everyone uses to grade MVPs once. If you give Kobe more MVPs you're changing the criteria, which I'm fine with. But it has to be acknowledged

@@arealone7863 Shaq is among the greatest frauds to ever dribble a basketball. The man was an offensive foul merchant. A product of the league office. If they actually made him play the game within the confines of the rules, we might not even remember his name by now.

That’s enough evidence to assume he would not have adjusted to the barrage of fouls he would have committed had the referees blew their whistles.
Well, Shaq had more post moves...well, no. Better shooter? No. Maybe a better passer...yeah not. Ball handling? Lol no. Well at least he was an asset in crunch time with his outside game and free throw...oof. Hmm. Is being huge and getting away with offensive fouls a skill?

Bro kobe should have also mvp for 2003 2006 2008 2009 2010
Should’ve won 2009 but that’s it. 2003 lakers were a disaster so that years out. You don’t win mvp in 7th seed unless it’s an all time great season. Tim Duncan was the best player of that decade
Kobe should have at least 3 mvps. IMO, he was blackballed because of the Colorado accusation and the way Shaq left the Lakers. Back then lots of “analysts” hated him and David Stern did not want to promote Kobe. Its incredible he did not win between 2004 to 2007 where he carried the Lakers to a finals with an out of shape and injured Shaq and made the playoffs and push the Suns to the brink with a depleted squad after the Shaq trade.
