I like that he's trying to focus more on the post season this year. The Sixers can definitely make a deep run this time around.

2nd round exit

No they can’t

Embiid is great. So is Jokic. Both play different styles. Embiid gets to dominate in his fashion while Harden play makes. Where as Jokic is on and off, sometimes he has to play the role of Embiid (dominate) and sometimes he has to play the role of Harden (play-make) and sometimes both.

Give this man at least 1 MVP man

Give this crybaby his MVP please. He's been crying every f year to get one.

@Spongequan exactly

@SPRVLN27 last year

@OJ Igiehon bro what your whole point is about other seasons when all i said is jokic deserves it this season. last season i agree that embiid should’ve had it over him, but that has nothing to do with what i said.

@This is howe i was. when Embiid dropped a near 60point quadruple double i had the same energy lol. brother he was 60 votes ahead of everyone halfway through the season. that’s crazy. 60 votes?? there is inherent bias. if you don’t think so there really isn’t a conversation to be had

Most people make the same mistake when judging who is the MVP. They only look at offensive stats. (which are very close betw Embiid & Joker). Embiid is 10 times better defender then Joker. Not sure why that never gets factored into the debate

he is at best a little better on defense than jokic and it's not even close between embiid and joker's offense, jokic is much better lol

it get your point but its not that close if you look at assists, play making and advanced stats. also the defender argument doesn‘t work bc giannis would have been mvp the last 5 years. for me the race should be between the joker and giannis but i still think the joker is the best baller on earth rn

Because people are biased and are voting based on who they want to win it - not who deserves to win it.

Jo v Joker is interesting. Jo is probably the better individual Center and probably the better 1 on 1 player but he doesn't make his teammates better. Watching Jokic it's easy to see the impact on his team and how he makes teammates better making him more "valuable: to his teams success.

@This is howe shhhhhh you got exposed boy. Stick to school

@This is howe alright just look at the last 3 matchups. One barely even got 20 and the other is way above 30. I keep hitting you with points you keep tryna make this about you and me and how I’m clowning you. Worry about tryna make an argument for your boy as opposed to worrying about fans. Your boy an MVP theif. It’s not his fault tho that he’s white and the other is African and it’s not your boys fault that he’s just great but definitely not the best. Nothing you can do with embiid, you can stop or slow down Jokic

But that’s not Embiid’s job, especially with James Harden as his point guard. When Jokić is practically the point guard in Denver.

@Ernie Johnson 4 of those matchups happened early in jokics career before he was really even the center piece of the team then…such a bs argument to try and take away from Jokic…you guys have no real arguments for mvp and would make far more sense if you just said you’re tired of the guy winning and want to see someone else win.

I wanna see my dawg harden win a ring but can you imagine Embiid vs jokic in the NBA Finals that would be so entertaining.

I'm happy to see this dude fulfil what I've been telling the whole world he could become, for years. Next achievement is goat.

Just stop

You didn’t tell me tho, so clearly not the whole world…

You never told me..

Jokic is a great player , no denying it. But to have him win 3 MVPs while Embiid has 0 is just a disservice to his game. He deserves at LEAST one MVP in his career.

@Chriscus dum fuq I’m not saying one of the other is better on defense…but is one really that much more elite if the numbers are damn near the same when either of them are on the floor for their teams…your guys reading comprehension isn’t the best huh

@Black Sparrow come on man , when did I ever say just give it to him ? I wouldn’t say it he deserves at least 1 MVP if he wasn’t deserving of an MVP lmao

its a season award you cant give someone MVP cause it will look fair to his career

@This is howe because he’s elite on both sides of the ball , pretty simple. JOKIC HAS THE SAME RESULTS ON DEFENSE ??? bro you’re just straight up capping lmao , I get pushing agendas but their defense isn’t close. The gap on offense between Embiid and Jokic is smaller than the gap between Embiid and Jokic on defense….easily.

It would be attritions if this dude exists his prime without an MVP. He is easily the best big in the game. Jokic may be a better passer but what else does he have on Embiid?

And all of the haters come out of the woodwork...

@This is howe I was referring to haters in general. I think Jokic is the best big man in the league. Stop replying to everyone on this video, bro.

Quit calling embiid the best big man then when he clearly isn’t

My two cents is Jokic gets a little bit too much credit. Don't get me wrong he's a hell of a player but he's literally a Point center lol. He's going to avg 8-10ast with his skill set. As far as the triple double ehh when westbrook did it no one though it would be done. Game has changed...is it still impressive of course but doesn't hold the same weight as back in 2017. Lastly it bothers me that when Jokic won it last year "everyone said he didn't have murray and MPJ" Den finished as the 3rd seed. Now he has them and DEN is the first seed and everybody is saying well DEN is in 1st so he deserves MVP lmao. You can't have it both ways....honestly his numbers are practically the same as last year. Give the MVP to someone else

Embiid is better scorer and better defensively than Jokic. No way Jokic is 3x MVP to Embiid 0 MVP when Embiid has dominated Jokic head to head

@Corey Czech maybe someone should try being better than Jokic…wtf is so hard to understand about that…you Jokic detractors are the biggest casuals I swear

@AM Giannis won two MVP's before he was a champ... You must not have watched Embiid clamp Giannis at the end of the game

@This is howe the only ppl crying is when Jokic gonna be 3x MVP and no Finals appearances. Jokic fans are the only ppl okay with that.

@Corey Czech you’re delusional dude…have fun crying over Jokic winning another mvp

Joel Embiid > Nikola Jokic

If you have a smooth brain maybe

Emmbiid demolished jokic when they matched up. You can clearly see the better player.

@NIkolay Jerev but I thought Denver had a better team this year (#1 seed!!) and that’s why he should win MVP right?? Y’all Jokic stans change the criteria every year. Last year it was cause he carried and his team around him sucked what’s the excuse this year

@nick T facts lol these jokic fanboyz are something else I swear.

@NIkolay Jerev  I understood you're probably from the same country as Jokic...but he destroyed him, it's just the truth. Maybe next game Jokic may win the battle, but it didn't happen last game they played.

It was team effort, not Embiid. At the beginning Embiid was on Jokic and at the half Denver were ahead and 76ers were arguing on the bench.

Giannis over Embid

OK, Don't get me wrong - but I know how Embiid can get the MVP hands down. You're ready? Here it is: Embiid should announce that he's transitioning to a girl or a lady. He'll be the only transgender candidate and will sweep the votes across the board. So, Joella - announce it. Get this thing done! Be the MVP!

Embiid the best big man in the game he can play both sides unlike jokic

💯💯🎯

@rellwill231 not the goat, but 1st ballot hall of famer... he is washed up now but cant deny his pervious success

@Chewy wtf do triple double got to do w anything Nikola jokic got more points under 20 in a row then embiid got all year

​@Chewy so Westbrook is the goat then right

​@SPRVLN27 if you look at the list of the top offense and defensive rating and you take it seriously you don't understand basketball

Sorry but I’m going for Luka on this one

Embiid has 5 triple doubles in his whole career. Jokic has over 100...

@Philip Redford He better have more Double Doubles. Considering that’s he’s played about 3+ more years worth of games than Joel. That’s not a good argument.

he doesn’t need to, especially when he’s had Ben Simmons and James Harden for Point guards

How many blocks jokic got?

@Mackdaddy 215 you don’t know ball…just a delusional embiid fan girl

@Sean Needham better than watching a free throw merchant shoot 20 free throws a game and some how think that makes him better what a sad joke you Philly fans are now.

Jokic mvp 3 peat

Funny thing is Jokic never cared about winning MVP’s from day one and is selfless. It took embiid 8 years or so to become that person, once he realised he can’t win it again 🤣

Jokic is the mvp if they give it to embiid they just feel sorry for him at this point

​@NIkolay Jerev Maxey has only come off the bench for about 20 games. He's started the rest of them, which is closer to 30 games.

@Pankaj Sharma Denver are negative without Jokic, 76ers are positive. You obviously do not follow the season. Maxey was on the bench vast magority of the season he gave them 40 several times and 76ers won. 76ers have Mvp Harden, champion and starter for Bucks P. J Tucker., Maxey a franchise player. A very good bench, cluch Niang, Melton, several times those guys made runs, when the starters are on the bench. The Nuggets bench is brand new and they have things to figure out, this they confirmed also, they acquired 3 players during this transfer. . Murray was inconsistent, MPJ also.

@NIkolay Jerev oh so you wanna say denver is number 1 in west only cause of jokic as if other player don't contribute mpj and Murray are both averaging more than 20 PPG and i haven't even talked about help from Aaron Gordon on how he helps him in the paint and who is from Philli bench gonna give them 40 like you talking about denver has more depth and overall talent than Philli period and don't make urself look more foolish saying denver doesn't have a good bench while they are literally no 1 in west Philly is only behind two of the most favourite to win the title milwakee and boston

@Pankaj Sharma mvp was not close last year and its is not close this year. 76ers have a guy on the bench that give them 40 pts several times this year and won games for them. Tell me one player that had 40 pts in Nuggets apart from Jokic. And Denver are negative without him. The guy hasnt rested all year.

Embiid has to campaign for himself so hard every year it’s sad….Jokic doesn’t even have to try

@Chillehhhh hahahaha no he isn’t

@This is howe if getting asked about it and answering is campaigning then sure he does lol but he's gonna own jokic again when they meet face to face

@Spongequan lol ya must be talking about yourself…campaigning for yourself is embarrassing

@This is howe you jokic fans are embarrassing

@Chillehhhh and he campaigns for himself like usual unlike Jokic…

Embiid fans don’t even watch Jokic yet they think they have a valid opinion on him…casuals will learn soon enough tho

@Spongequan will make it further than embiid like usual…would you bet your life against the nuggets this year?

Who cares about jokic he’s gonna get knocked out in the 1st or 2nd round anyway

MVBIID IS WAY BETTER THEN THAT BUM JOKIC

@Mackdaddy 215 your life is an L my guy

@Miljan L L take take. You thought that was funny??? 🥱🥱🥱.

Yeah, that's why Jokic will never get the MVP (Most Valuable Philadelphian) award!

Neither Embid or Jokic will be in the Finals, so to both of them, winning the MVP is their ceiling... Case closed

I don't got nuggets in finals only because sun's are loaded so if nuggets lose to sun's it won't bother me at all it is what it is jokic will never stack I can respect thst win or lose

Jokic is so clearly a tier above embiid it shouldn’t even be a discussion anymore.

@This is howe you straight up don’t watch Embiid if all you can say is he flops. He’s got the best shooting touch of any big that has ever played the game. He’s an incredible defender with huge blocks every game. He can shoot 3s, shoot off the dribble or just get in the paint and play bully ball. Also a good unselfish passer and great team player. If he was on your team you’d love him. He gets fouled because if you didn’t foul him he could drop 50 on you. I hate Boston but I’ll gladly say Tatum is amazing and in Joel’s tier . Just appreciate greatness and stop hating.

@Beer Hikes hahaha who in their right mind would enjoy someone flopping for fouls the entire game, it’s horrible basketball to watch he will never be an mvp

I think you need your vision checked. Call your doctor. They’re so close. Amazing players that carry their teams. Just stop hating and enjoy the JoJo show

Lol the Jokers laughing at this

Laughing while putting up 17pts and paying Scott foster to save him from the fucking raptors 🤭

Looked like he got humbled and played differently now.....he doesn't cry every touch etc free throw nazi etc RESPECT

If you think that’s all his game is, then you don’t watch ball

Here's the problem with Embiid he plays to win the mvp not the championship

he just said he is focused on the more important thing which is the ring. Are you deaf?

Same thoughts. He is so obsess with MVP talks than championship run.

Sympathy MVP. Give this crybaby his MVP please.

Jókic all day!

@NIkolay Jerev super hard? The bucks, sixers and celts are better than anyone in west. Their defensive rating is equal??? On what planet?? Embiid the most feared defender in league(ask morant). Nobody fears jokic...

@Seiji Sawamura Jokic passes to find the right play and to keep his team alive in super hard conference. Their def rating is equal. Becouse of media you will never hear that Jokic last year had most game winning blocks.

Embiid is better scorer and defender. Jokic passes because he can’t score against good defenders. Also dropped 47 points and 18 rebounds on the chokic’s head

@Mark Lewen never

Jokic>embiid

Jokic 🃏🃏🃏🃏🃏

So many delusional embiid fan girls in here…
