Miami can wish the health the nuggets stumble or they getting swept
Zašto ga je tako iskulirao za Kalemegdan nije mi jasno 🙂
As we suspected Nuggets in 5
Sweep again
And please, give and put next to that Windhors(e)t always and at all times medical help. Hatred for Jokic and Denver brought him close to stroke and heart attack. The next few games are very risky. Will Windy survive or not, we all have to wait and watch with greatest enjoyment. I already placed my bet, but I don't want to say it.
Why is the joker sound like Shaq??? We need subtitle. . couldn't understand him
Jokic is absolutely sensational. I don't know why people kerp harping on him not scoring more – they won, he consistently gets triple doubles and his playmaking abilities is extraordinary.
Sweeping of Lakers was sweeping of sick,twisted love he feels for James and that took away at least 10 years of his life. After that he is dead man walking. We all now just waiting to Jokic put last nail in Windhorst coffin. And Nikola will do that in style! 😁
Jokič is by far the best player in the league! Second best is Dončič
The heat lose + 5 bam is too little jokic can see over the defense so he can get 25 10 and 11 it's a it is a he's looking over the top up bam out of Bio to small can't do nothing with
Jokic isn't a reluctant shooter. Have you seen some of his higher scoring games. If they give him more single coverage he'll just tear them apart by scoring more.
wonderful
The guy is but y'all up in his caboose
Man tbh I never cared for jokic. I know he won two mvp’s. I heard about Joel embed being snubbed or whatever but seeing jokic in this playoffs, dude is a monster and light years ahead of embiid.
Once Jokic wins the championship, he will be considered the greatest Nugget ever and not Carmelo.
Who will win the MVC? Most valuable clown? Stephen A, Nick Wright or Perk?
ESPN analysts and commentators have lost literally all credibility, that is, the little credibility of dubious origin that they had. Except Jalen Rose. The behavior of ESPN and their relation (all of ESPN) towards Jokić and Denver was full of hatred, contempt, humiliation by ignoring, racism, the most brutal non-objectivity and so on. You name it-they got it. They did all this openly and without hesitation, without fear of being prosecuted. We are still waiting for the initiation of an investigation against ESPN for spreading racism and hatred.
3 more wins.
heat had a great run but buggets gonna sweep them …
If Miami makes 4 more 3s they win the game. I think they'll live with that… Also, free-throw discrepancy is wild 2-20 😬
Jokic goat after jordan
Joker in 4. No cap.
That's last girl is an idiot
7:48 it’s actually hard lol to get an answer, they were on cruise control and still beat them.
There’s never been a clearer number 1 player on the NBA since LeBron in 2018
Embidd: so what im the mvp
Man Murray in Zen mode for real if he gets in the zone it’s over for Miami like a sweep . Boy talking about being like water
Dang, despite sweeping the Lakers, the Nuggets won 5 consecutive if they make it 8 I don't have a favorite team but i might consider it
KALEMEGDAN CASTLE IN BELGRADE< SERBIA NIKOLA …Nikola didn't understand a journalist on the press conference when he said: I've been to Kalemegdan Castle in Belgrade (Kalemegdan is difficult to pronounce for foreigners)…
if jokic does not play, maybe the heat has a chance to win😅
his english has gotten good!
Fire Kendrick Perkins
This is gonna be the worst finals I. History. Miami sucks. Gonna get swept
if jokic does not play, maybe the heat has a chance to win😅
