:picard: The NBA is a product, breh. Of course they’re going to force feed aka market certain players. Still that doesn’t take away from his talent.

Honestly Jokic has easily been the most disrespected top player before this run started. You ask who people takin between Luka and Jokic start of the season 80% at least pickin Luka even tho Jokic 2x MVP and been further in playoffs....

People werent givin him a 2nd thought in convos with Giannis. Alot thought Embiid was better twoway player (he is but still).

Media I think it was with Broussard and Wright and 2 other people had a segment a few months ago and they was sayin players like Dame and SGA would be best player in a series with Jokic. Jokic already beat Dame without Murray too.

If Jokic complete this run.... Its finna be a complete 180 in perception of him.

Should always been held in high regard, you're right...

Jokic, in Y8, now in his second WCF. That's more than Embiid ever made, and for the record he's a better basketball player than Embiid...

That's the same amount of conference finals trips as Giannis, who has played in two thru 10 years. I'd take Giannis by a slight margin but it's certainly arguable Jokic better at ball than him...

Luka 1x WCF in 5 years. Dame 1x WCF in 11 years. SGA never even made the playoffs...

Jokic been That Guy...

What’s actually going to happen are the clowns who never believed in his greatness will walk back what they originally said and claim they always thought he was great

I dont like Fatkic but nikka aint no way you have WES UNSELD as better :deadrose: have you seen Unseld play.... hed be closer to Bam today than Jokic....

Mikan shouldnt even be in rankings no disrespect to him he pioneered the game but the competition back then was just....

I agree wit the rest tho. Orlando Dwight better too :sas2:

Dwight Howard had no offensive skills great defender but he isn’t better than Jokic off of defense alone

As much as I liked Melo his style of play didn’t influence the outcome of games.

He scored a lot and didn’t do much else.

Jokic is arguably the best player in the league right now. Embiid won the MVP and is a better defender but Jokic offensive game especially is much more versatile.

Probably will go down as the best Offensive Center of all time.



Dude is the curry of big men.

He more like Magic or Larry than Steph TBH. Steph cant pass, playmake, or have a versatile offensive game like those 3. What Steph does he do it better than anyone but its still a singular threat mostly that he GOAT it. Magic, Larry, Jokic all could murk you anywhere especially post which where alot of their game starts actually. Obviously Steph dont post at all.
