  1. Its definitively Jokic. A title immediately elevates him to one of the best to ever do it, his ceiling is that he can go down as a top 3-5 centers ever. Butler even if he won, would been seen at best as a top 30-50 players overall.
    Jokic is a potentially era defining/generational player, and he needs titles to prove it. If he wins a couple of titles, with the multiple MVPs and maybe finals MVP, he is in the conversation for top 10 ever. His talent is a level above Butler and his legacy can be a level higher, and a surefire HoF if he gets this.

  2. Great, another stupid debate about legacy.
    Is mainstream media this desperate to push the ring or die narrative to force the return of superteams again?

  3. I ain't gonna listen to Joy or that clown McCoy after every series they chose against the nuggets. Clowns

  4. Here we go again 😢!.The Heat needs to start eating lots of okra and anchovies pies ASAP if they expect to win at least 3 games out of 7, the Nuggets are quite crispy right now and they love to munch on fried hog snouts and that is going to be the deciding factor!😂😂😂😂😂

  5. So according to this debate show it seems as though Jokic and Jimmy Butler are going to play 1 on 1 in the finals?
    And that basketball is in fact not a team sport?

  6. There's literally zero shot these guys are saying Jokic over Butler.

  7. Who ever wins deserves what are these people on about if u really want it win 4 games done deal

  8. Jokic in the Chauncey Billups category??? Weakest take in the Nuggets hating media RN. I love Billups but there is no comparison.

  9. It would do for Jimmy the same thing it did for Paul Pierce. Back in the early 2000s, the pretty clear consensus was that Kobe was the best wing player, then T-Mac and Vince, then Pierce and Ray Allen. That was for sure the way they were viewed. Then just because Pierce wins as part of a super team, he leap frogs those other guys and him and Allen get boosted into the top 75 team while T-Mac and Vince don’t make it. And Pierce wasn’t even great in the finals, only averaged 21 a game. This would have a similar boost for Jimmy.

  10. I agree with joy for a particular reason…. I think Jimmy’s entire career is predicated on “playoff Jimmy”. Without a title I think we’re over looking the incoming disrespect to his overall greatness . He mentioned Chauncey billups and other good but not amazing players where as earlier in the post season we had comparisons of what Jimmy was doing to none other than Michael Jordan. Jimmy with a ring would validate “Playoff Jimmy” almost as an enigmatic figure and that would land somewhere in history. Without a ring it all gets lost whereas Joker will go down somewhere notable in history regardless

  11. He had no success on the playoffs 🤣🤣🤣🤣.

    Far out , how do these casuals get paid to talk so much waffle “

  12. Jokic beat, Lebron AD, Booker, KD vs Jimmy beating, injured Giannis who was out for 3 games, Middelton, choker Harden and choker Embiid. Jokic run was way more impressive

  13. Rings have weight to them- jimmy bringing a ring to Miami would weigh twice as much

  14. I’ve been a jimmy butler fan since his days in Chicago… I wish him the best of luck…GET YOUR RING… it’s your time brother…
