To think Embiid was compared to this man is laughable

[TheGoogergieger]

Perk wants us to forget he’s the main reason Jokic didn’t threepeat and instead the nba handed out their first ever MVPlead award instead that year…

[andrewmadden]

The greatness of jokic can never be talked about enough. Glaze this man to infinity

[dlbarnes]

Kendrick, do you think people forgot how you spoke about Jokic? That stuff works for the current generation, not those who can think past yesterday.

[RomnysGonzalez]

WAIT?!. ESPN TALKING ABOUT JOKIC AND ISN'T TO TALK ABOUT BORDERLINE RACISM AND XENOPHOBIC AGAINST HIM?. What is this universe.

[edstrokestark]

remember when perkins was on that racist rhetoric agains jokic? I do

[mellotron_scratch]

To have the Highest % of 3 points in NBA as a center is achievement on it's own

[mauricioubillusmarchena]

Jokic is the Most Valuable player EVER.
That doesn't mean he's the goat (not yet in that conversation), but the aggregate value he adds to his team is the most in history, by far.

[timhoheisel]

He's a whole category above everyone else.

Should be his 5th consecutive MVP but we had to give it to the lazy crybaby

[Insomnia]

Jamal is so bad Westbrook is more helpful in terms of winning games right now

[МиливојеКнежевић]

Four consecutive MVP titles (The fact that someone votes on the "result" as an indisputable fact is not Jokić's fault) and on the way to being the first to cross the finish line for the fifth time in a row, i.e. triumphal arch as the Emperor Maximus of the sport of basketball. Despite the unbearable ease of being denied, ignored, lied to and hated in the mainstream media and on basketball courts by trained reefers. And all this only for the reason that Nikola Jokic is proud of his Orthodoxy and the Serbian people.

[tonydeveyra]

he should be winning his 5th MVP, 5th in a row, as far as I'm concerned...

[alucard]

While i dont forget how Kendrick spoke about Jokic, he is man enough to admit he was wrong and is giving him his flowers now. Respect.

[MoneyTrees]

I thought he was in his prime these past couple years but he just decided to say "watch this" and pull the rug out from everyone

[Leftfield-]

1990s Eastern Europe made new men. Jokic. Doncic. Djokovic. Goat makers... it's unprecedented.

[jaguar]

Jokic is the most valuable player EVER to play basketball it’s that simple

[emersondemathias]

Jokic 4th MVP will be his Wilt Chamberlain moment in the league. Wilt got "only" two rings.

[dagarage]

audio doesnt match video at the end come o n man

[Maverck]

The problem is that the Nuggets front office keeps screwing him by handing out contracts to abysmal players like Murray and MPJ (Jamal Murray has got to be the most mediocre #2 option ever). This past offseason was the perfect opportunity to get rid of those bums and surround Jokic with a solid #2 option and other key pieces to win a Championship, but sadly, we're potentially looking at another year of his prime being WASTED. They need to get him an All-Star caliber #2 asap, or Denver will never win a Championship again.
