They put Rui Hachimura on Jokic and let Anthony Davis do the help defense, that worked against Jokic in the fourth quarter. Malone should put Aaron Gordon at the 3 point line to punish that strategy.
That Austin Reaves 3 got them leaning foward
Perk is seething right now, ! How dare a white guy put up those kind of numbers 😂
Lakers have to be worried that Lebron and AD combined for 66 points. I don't know if austin reaves and rui hachimura can combine for 40 points. But we'll see how it goes.
The real MVP right there.
he's a guy who could care less about regular season MVP. He probably threw his 2 in the trash. He knows what's important
If you ever seen the face of AD on Joker’s 3Q ending 3 points shot… he was like man this dude is for real…
Jokic is MVP
Jikc would have had his 3rd MVP but they thought they should give someone else a chance.
Ik and MVP who would’ve blamed his teammates
The Joker is the best player in the world right now
LBJ GG
Lecry Lerefs League and Lakectap could no win tonight hey Lecrap you shall pay more to the refs to win the next one
Davis and Jokic were going off. Great to see a fantastic center battle. I hope Davis can keep rising to Jokic's level.
Jokic pulled AD's hoe card 🔥
When the spread was -6.5…
Gentlemen’s sweep 🧹 by Denver.
What separates the Greats from the All-Time Greats is how well they play when the stakes are highest. Jokic is in the latter group. Look up his numbers in game 1 of round 1 till now, he’s legitimately getting better and better the deeper he goes in the playoffs.
Anyone else not like MPJ’s game? I’ve also felt like he jacks up shots and wastes possessions, and even when he scores it’s either a long shot or a dribble dribble dribble that kills the flow
It's amazing what he has achieved without ever playing with another all-star on his team , just wow
Lakers played some dirty tactics like LeBron elbowed Murray, Schroeder flopping and Hachimura pushing Jokic at fourth quarter yet this team won.
MVP 💪💪💪
Come back stronger
REAL MVP
Nuggets in 5 , Ad isnt getting 40 again
I ❤the Joker🏀
Nuggets NBA Champions incoming.
the lakers finished off 17-9 and have been 9-4 counting the playoff game. Not winning tonight disrupts the 2-1 pace they were on and i believe this is a sign they will lose the series. 76% of the time teams to win game 1 will win the series. The lakers must win tomorrow and even then they are fighting an uphill battle. Lakers are virtually undefeated with AD scoring over 30 and he scored 40 and still lost. If you look at every great 27 is around the age they win their first championship and I think we could be entering the era of Jokic. He is head and shoulders above the rest of the league in talent.
That stat line , Jesus Christ 😮
he got robbed for mvp award
Real MVP
Nikola, please stop tallking to espn reporters..
We have never seen a player like Jokic.
The man!
Yes go nuggets
Blood is "HIM"..
Nikola Jokic, Drazen Dalipagic, Dino Radja, Drazen Petrovic, Predrag Danilovic. Look them up: no team in the world would be able to beat this all-time.Jugoslavian team. Perfect offense, defense, leadership, team game.
Top game MPJ, he is the 5 scorer of the Nuggets team, MPJ is the best player in assists, he increased the number of assists by 100 percent in the playoffs, MPJ fought the best with Jokic for rebounds,
Jokic went to sleep in the 2nd half. wont win like that
True Mvp
Real MVP 🃏🃏🃏🇺🇸🌎🌎🌎
woke culture stole something from this guy. They real MVP
Jokic's voice reminds me of Ivan Drago. If they die, they die.
