imagine more than a few voters regret their rationale last season and may lean his way as a make-up.

it was so funny watching those guys backpedal like deion after the sixers flamed out last spring. i love wilbon, but you could see him convincing himself all season long that embiid deserved to be mvp. then when the playoffs happened and Jokic was doing Wilt shit while embiid was wilting (pun intended), wilbon just had to eat it with a sheepish grin on his face for a few days. and i don’t think he even voted anymore. i imagine the ones who really put their name on that ballot must be even more embarrassed.

    I'm extremely happy for Jokic and the Nuggets. But most of all, I'm excited for the strength and conditioning coach. My girlfriend played basketball at Northwestern Oklahoma State University in A

    Please indulge me the sin of a self-quote. From this thread's second post, three years ago: So glad that Jokic won't be one of those greats to never get a ring.

Perhaps my favorite Jok stat line ever tonight.

4/16/7 with 5 blocks on 67% shooting. He was 2/3 from the field in a blowout against the Pistons. He only played 24 min.

#403

This is the absurdity that Jokic deals with every night.  Even after watching in slow-mo it doesn't make any sense.  He gets fouled almost every posession.  And yet only shoots 5.6 FTs per game.

 

Here's what happened on the technical foul for "flopping" whistled against Nikola Jokic last night:This was going to be a straight out-of-bounds call, then referee Ben Taylor decides to call Jokic for flopping only after Jokic says something to him.

 

#408

He’s played 39 games this season (inactive for 1). 
 

In 34 of those games he has 4 turnovers or less. 
 

In 28 of those games he has 3 turnovers or less.

It's really a shame the NBA voters robbed Jokic of an MVP 3peat last year. Embiid is probably going to win it this year if he continues his current pace and doesn't get injured.  If he does, then they will be in the same predicament next year when he will be going for a 3peat and they will have to pivot again to avoid it for whatever reasons. It's just stupid to turn the MVP award into some popularity contest instead of the typical "best individual player throughout the season." 

#411

jokic last 9 games:

22.7 pts, 9.8 reb, 9.6 ast, 1.3 blk, 1.1 stl

81% FG, 75% 3P, 85% FT

i seriously doubt that there has ever been a nine game stretch like this in the history of basketball.

ho hum. can’t wait to see all of the writers and voters bend over backwards to explain why they voted for tatum over jokic for mvp lol. i’m sure it’ll work out for tatum the same way it did for embiid.

One of the funnest Nikola Jokić clips I’ve seen - courtesy of Nuggets 360. “Unforgiving. The lightning is coming.” I may use this clip before literally every Nuggets game from this point forward

Tatum has zero case. Look for everyone to pile on the SGA wagon if OKC gets the 1 seed. 

#421

Close game. Denver's down a point with about 4 minutes left. Haha just kidding, not really that close.

And the thing is, he really doesn't have to make that many overt plays. Yes, there's a block, a steal, some key buckets and an assist, but there's also that intangible aspect--he makes everyone around him better.

Boggles the mind.

Nikola Jokic's white whale is to get this called a shooting foul.He's been trying for nine years. He's never gotten it once.

 

I've seen him do that probably half a dozen times this year.  Makes me chuckle every time.

#429

Absolutely filthy.. especially the last pass to KCP
The lob pass that he batted to Braun in the corner was crazy, too.

Nikola Jokić was asked if he said anything to Victor Wembanyama after dunking on him.He said he told Wemby: "If you block one more shot, I'm gonna..." "But he blocked like four after that, so I didn't do anything about it."

 

#431
I can't even begin to break down how stupid this is."Jokić is probably, statistically, when it comes to overall game, the worst MVP winner. He is the worst MVP winner in the last 40 years."Well, he's about to win his third. He should have four in a row.Over those four… https://t.co/NwXqsR9Fyc

This one against the Spurs was an all timer. I saw it live from another angle, and it may have been even more impressive.

What is it with retired NBA guys who feel they need to take shots at Jok?  Last year it was Perk (who has since recanted) and now Arenas.  It's like they can't process that the best player in the league right now is a big, slow white dude who can't jump.

#434

Oh, yeah, don't let me leave out Mark Jackson who left Jokic off his MVP ballot altogether last year.  Then claimed it was an accident.

Nikola Jokic put on a clinic in Game 4.

 

 

 

#438

I’ve noticed this about joker…

He absolutely limp wrists some wide open bunnies. Like he expects some sort of defensive resistance, it doesn’t show and he’s so wide open he doesn’t have quite the touch lol.

He’s done quite a few times this series…he makes this crazy and 1, then barely draws iron on a uncontested floater

#439
Jokic went down 0-2, world was calling him and the Nuggets frauds, he received an MVP award and got called undeserving of it to his face on national TV, then dropped three legacy games in a row. 1 of 1, we’re too lucky.

He cooked embiid so bad that Joel is slated to miss the next 3 away games in denver
That motherfucker might never play in Denver again.

If the Nuggets don’t break the second, third, fourth, whatever apron to help Jokic get another NBA championship or two, I don’t know what to say.

 

his statue in denver needs to come replete with arm scratches.

#446

Why is this in the Jokic thread?

All Embiid needed to beat Jokic and a bunch of guys was LeBron, KD And Steph. Good job.
