We know this clown ass nigga. Since when has the MVP cared about defense though? I’m on record saying that Embiid should have more MVP’s cuz not only does he ball on offense but he’s a damn good defensive player too. But that doesn’t change the fact that non defense playing James Harden has an MVP, non defense playing Steve Nash won back-to-back over Kobe for some fucking reason. Russell Westbrook won cuz of triple doubles as a fucking 6th seed, Steph Curry doesn’t play great defense either. Fuck outta here

MVP ain’t never gave a damn about defense so we’re not about to move goal posts and vilify Jokic for the same shit.
Good point
 
Don’t nobody give a fuck about his detailed bullshit. One name, Steve Nash. Gil dumb as fuck like I said
You're talking too much and not listening enough. Like a lady. Again, he explained it. And has you simply listened you would see why Jokic is ranked last and Nash is not.

If I started off by statement by saying Caron Butler is better than Lebron would you care to listen to the rest of what I had to say?

No you wouldn’t. His beginning statement was so asinine that no explanation would make sense cuz it’s simply not true. He just wants viewers.

Well this wouldnt be an apt comparison. A career role player against the best ever? No. Gil started off categorizing all multiple MVP winners. So Jokic was discussed among peers. No need to be so upset man. Its gonna be OK.
 
I’m not prepared to go this far but, to my point, all first place finishes are not equal.



In the modern era Gil is correct. Joker is the best offensive weapon right now, period, but he plays NO DEFENSE.

Embid and Freak are miles better and only slightly less offensively. No way he should be sweeping this era like this.

When he is done, and sitting on 5,6 MVPs, what the hell are people gonna do when comparing him to Magic, Kareem, Lebron, Jordan. The accolades matter, he will be "better"

No other super star player could win CONSECUTIVELY like this with so little effort on defense. If this is the way voters are gonna vote its ridiculous that Shaq only has 1. Kobe only has one, amd Steph only has 2.

MVP means something and there is no way any NBA fan is going to tell me that Joker is 4,5,6 MVPs better than Shaq, LeBron, Kobe, Duncan etc.

I'd vote for Luka this year if you ask me. If we are not factoring in defense at all, Scoring leader and 2nd in assists, 4th in the West, that's James Harden shit.

Mind you Harden did it for 5 years straight and only one 1 MVP.
 
LeBron should sue Twitter. It is beyond wild that they don’t just allow someone to register an account with someone else’s name as their handle and put a verification check mark next to it but also elevate it.

This was the first tweet on my timeline:



Second time I’ve seen content from that account that I don’t follow. Using someone’s name to attack their father is really some unjustifiable bullshit.

Well atleast they correctly identified you as a LeBron hating bitch. They got that part right. :yes:
 
Hey man.. dont attack me. The algorithm says you're a got dam hater.

Half of what I get on Facebook is Kobe content. No exaggeration, I can't log onto Facebook and scroll down three times and not see Kobe content.

So does that make me a Kobe hater? Let me know, I really make a habit of relying on 80 year olds for their technological expertise.
 
I think this is a good move, everyone is saying my this is one of the all time worst draft classes so it can't hurt

I listened to the NBA Today podcastand I had a thought that was as unlikely as a blind person typing out the Old Testament from hitting random keys: "That was a really smart monologue from Kendrick Perkins."

He basically made the point that all Bronny discussion is based on name rather than merit and now that he is going to be a professional athlete, it is time for media to "cut the cord" and not give him excessive and unearned coverage. They have incentive to cover him like a meaningful player before he earns it (which he might never) like there is to spotlight any celebrity kid. But it's unfair to him and bad for the league to divert limited attention from other players to him simply because of his name.

It's ironic that Perkins said it, since so much of his commentary is clickbait. But he sounded like a real media ombudsman. ESPN has a choice and they should set a policy of mostly treating Bronny like a normal player until he earns it.

Here's the clip:

He’s dead wrong. He wants to use stats aa his argument but he doesn’t realize that stats are the reason why Jokic keeps winning. Jokic is trash on defense but guess what…Jokic is top 17 in defensive rating. TOP 17! Ahead of Kawhi, KCP, Jaylen Brown etc. On paper that looks good for him.

But I watch most Nuggets game. He fails the eye test. But he gets steals, blocks, deflections etc so he plays a “part of defense” but he’s an automatic bucket on defense. An easy target.
 
Right. You're equally obsessed with both. One to underrate, one to overrate. Ill let you figure out which is which. Your feeds reflect that.

You're sounding more and more like your special little buddy every month with the projection.

You're the one obsessed both with LeBron and "Tobe."

I can't remember the last time I watched that man play against someone other than the Warriors.


Trying to bait me into sharing pictures of my abs. :smh:

"I watch most Nuggets game"

Thats why the only player he knows on the team is Joker. And no Nuggets fan talks like this. Bitch nigga cant even troll right. :smh:

2021 – Jokic record 16 triple doubles, which were the most by a center in a single season in NBA history at that point in time… The Nuggets were 6.4 points per 100 possessions better with Jokic on the floor than when he was off… Jokic became just the second player in league history to win MVP in a season averaging at least 25 points, 10 rebounds and 8 assists per game. 2016-17 Westbrook was the other, but Westbrook shot 43 percent from the field and his team won 57 percent of their games. Jokic shot 56 percent from the field and his team won 65 percent of their games… Jokic played in all 72 games.

2022 – Jokic recorded 19 triple doubles which broke the record he set the previous season for most triple doubles in a season by a center… The Nuggets were an astounding 16.4 points per 100 possessions better with Jokic on the floor than off… Jokic became the only player in NBA history with 2,000 points, 1,000 rebounds and 500 assists in the same season, and the only player to average 27 points, 13 rebounds and 7 assists per game in a season. And before anyone says, “Well, Sonny, you're just hand-picking stats now,” I'm compelled to ask, What the hell are we doing with triple doubles? … Highest PER in the history of the league

And he carried the load. No Jamal Murray. So Gilbert the clown, needs to do his research.

This is how Shaddy would behave if he were normal sized, he’d be an even worse tyrant as a giant:



That's not light funny games, that's disgusting and homo shit. All that super thug Barnes facade and you don't tell your teammate about this? Then you tell this story in public? That man has a family, he has kids. I stayed in locker rooms through my 20's and I never let shit like that go down.

This ain't funny, this is kick your ass shit.

This is why Kobe ran his ass put of LA, amd that's saying alot from a dude who cheated on his wife with a hotel clerk whore :puke:
