Both are great players but Giannis & Lamar Jackson are better than the both of them. But somehow, the media has an uncanny way of trying to diminish the greatness of both Giannis & Lamar whilst highlighting their shortcomings.

Conversely the reverse is the case with Jokic and Josh Allen. They highlight their greatness whilst overlooking their shortcomings

In the Balkans, they know Jokic is grossly overrated & a US media creation. Serbian basketball team also plays better without him.
Jokic is the Deontay Wilder of the NBA - media hype + system.
Analytics is a Ponzi scheme Denver Nuggets stay exploiting to steal MVPs for Jokic.
Jokic is the biggest fraud in the NBA. In a sane world: Mike Malone, Jokic & Nuggets would be investigated for manipulating advanced stats in his favour & malpractice.
The shamelessness of the OP aside.

Now, this is the problem with cats complaining about the state of today's NBA and the 3-pt shot. Here we have yet another thread disrespecting Jokic, when he's keeping the elements of the game alive (post-up, midrange, physicality) that y'all supposedly want back in the league, but the only energy that y'all have for him is to downplay his game because of all the other agendas y'all have to fulfill.

Would anyone dare keep on disrespecting an all-time great big man from the 80s/90s like this?

As I keep saying - y'all don't really like hoops and y'all need to start being honest with yourselves.

What PR does Jokic have?

He's the 3-time MVP and I've seen the guy in like 3 commercials. He leaves the country after the season and maybe 1 video of him at a Serbian bar goes viral in a summer.

Dude, I've seen more internet fervor around Travis Hunter in the last 2 months than I've seen about Nikola Jokic in 5 years.

Are we even living in the same world?

This thread is propaganda cause it ain't no way OP watches Joker play and this is his conclusion

If Bron put up the #s Joker does, we'd never hear the end of it

Joker is a historically great player

Josh Allen has been a top 3-4 QB for the past 4 or so seasons. Elite QBs get visibility.


Jokic is a historic player and Giannis is just as good as him but the media does not slob him up.

They both deserve the hype to me. Plus Lamar has been getting praised all year for being a great passer this year. People have been giving credit to Giannis for being one of the better midrange shooters in the league this year.

I don't even understand why yall get mad about shyt like this. Too busy worrying about narratives and drama instead of just watching games
