And they said Embiid was better than him
Jokic 42 times better than LeBron confirmed
Heās 100% from the field lmao what a guy
42nd Finals game is insane even to read
Top ten player ever
He’ll do it every game if the Heat really think zone will work against him
Initially read this as 25/10/10 in the first half and was honestly not even surprised. Thatās how good Jokic is. What a fucking beast.
Nikola is an absolute once in generation talent should get his first ring and finals mvp
Naz Reid
The biggest joke in this sub is that Embiid deserved it
42 finals games for James and not even his full total and nuggets just now appear in their first….. Dudes unreal
42nd finals game damn thats a lot of finals games
0 turnovers too… wow
What an asshole. His last game he bounced LeBron from the playoffs and then rubs it in by doing this in his first finals appearance.
In an alternate dimension the Nuggets trade Joker instead of Nurk and Nuggets fans can breath a sigh of relief not having to complain about media attention.
This series is over.
Can joker overtake lebron all time?
Thatās a insane stat
LeThoughts running around LeBron’s head right now
Shout out u/Zhugo
He feasted tonight and I don’t see that changing the rest of the series. Onto game 2.
Michael Jeffrey Jordan would never
Fact 1: Jokic is nicknamed Honey
Fact 2: Allergies in the US have been pretty terrible this year.
Fact 3: there is a link between eating local honey and allergies decreasing.
Conclusion: buy some local honey from a beekeeper, your allergies will improve. Jokic is a humanitarian, a horse aficionado, from Serbia, likes playing games on his phone at halftime, and oh yeah is easily top 5 player this year. And for helping your allergies, heās basically a physician. Only makes sense for him to get a ring and FMVP.
Someone needs to send this stat to Broussard and Wildes so they can shove it in Wrights face tomorrow. Dude is the biggest hater on Jokic.
As a dad of young kids in Denver Iām so glad this is the team theyāll learn the game through.
He’s 99 percent going to end this run averaging a 28+ triple double lol, insane.
as a lebron stan, gonna be pretty annoying watch jokic break a bunch of random finals records this series
LeOld King is dead, long live LeNew King
IM TELLING YOUā¦it sounds crazy but Jokic has a good chance of going down as the 2nd or 3rd best player to ever lace em up by the time his career is over. 4+ rings with his production and he could be in the conversation.
Letās revisit this comment in 8 years, maybe itāll be a bad take but thereās a real chance heās a top 3 player all time.
Honestly, can’t even imagine playing in 42 Finals games. I’m impressed if I make it to 42 pick-up game wins.
Lebron: āI think imma retire again, letās talk about thatā šš¤£
Don’t ever fucking put Joel Embid’s name next to is guy again. 3x MVP
