Almost every bucket Jokic scored came with Embiid on the court :lol:

Are you really gonna backpedal now and say Jokic didn’t dominate Embiid last night? Even if you didn’t watch the game the stats speak for themselves.



I watched the game. He hit two elbow jump shots with Embiid on him. I think you don't have a clue what dominate means. He outplayed him. Dominate means Embiid couldn't do anything with him. That was hardly the case. He scored a number of his points while Babon was in or Embiid was rotating.

Embiid damn near broke the backboard blocking his shot and hit one of the biggest shots of the game on a simple clearout against Jokic.

He outplayed him but you tend to embellish a lot whenever its someone you happen to like. Embiid avg 27 a game and I have yet to ever hear you say he has "dominated" anyone..How is that for "Objectivity"?

Embiid dominates a lot of games. Just not last night.

I agree. Neither did Jokic.

FavreFan is a GREAT human being. That can't be denied. He proved that by standing up to "The Hawk's" , "Stolen Valor", that being said, just awful sports thoughts. Nobody in their right mind is taking Jokic over Embiid.

Jokic is 3rd in the projected MVP race right now. He’s a center averaging more apg than LeBron James. He’s a pretty big deal Bob.

So much so that the announcers name at least 8 people that were considered candidates and he was not one of them.

Embiid scores more, rebounds more and blocks more shots. He is no doubt more impactful and has been since he entered the league.

He is regarded as the best Center in the league by just about everyone. You can continue the fight and then once it goes another way you can make the "well at the time i said it he was" that you used for Freak and Butler. Another one i was correct about.

We have the bet so at least there is a little skin in the game.

We made the bet. We’ll see who wins it. I trust basketball-reference.

Jokic is on a better team, on a team that has dealt with significantly more injuries than Embiid’s team, and doesn’t have another All Star on his team. You can count points and rebounds all you want but Jokic runs the entire offense, something Embiid doesn’t and cannot do. There’s a very good reason he’s going to beat out Embiid in MVP this year. It’s because he’s more valuable to a winning team.

Just heard Doris Burke talk MVP candidates. Named 8 guys and Joker was nowhere to be found. Embiid was. Thought Favre said he was 3rd earlier today?

Doris "Mother Fuckin " Burke's I brought up Ben Golliver once and you poo pooed it.You're a big Stephen A guy also :lol: :lol:

Jokic doesn't have the media and TMZ friendly personality that Embiid does. He simply won't get the same level of coverage on ESPN and NBATV even if he is a more impactful player.

Both are really good. Casual NBA fans like long time guy might not be able to notice how good Jokic is since they don't watch Nuggets games.

The issue isn't about whether i think both are good or not.

I ignore your posts at this point. You're a certified waste of time that struggles to put complete sentences together. Its why you rely on gifs so much.

You never have anything constructive to say about anything or anyone. You're a bitter, old ass hater.

Nah fuck you you sour motherfucker. You can't get 3 people to respond to anything you post on here. You spend all your time ripping on the things that other people say thats why. No one wants to be around bitter motherfuckers all the time. Thats what you are a bitter motherfucker.


So now talking about the "5th placed guy" in MVP voting is a problem for your cantankerous ass. You think everyone on here is clamoring to read your repetitve, incoherent bullshit about how you don't watch the Bulls asshole? Do you think that moves the needle on here dipshit?

Fun game. Hope Embiid can stay healthy and make this a bit of a rivalry.

KAT is not on this level let’s be clear ltg.


Do years ago you had KAT better than Embiid. Yet another thing you were wrong about. I'm sure you will say that you hadn't seen Embiid play yet.

I guess. Got to move on to someone else after Minnesota bombed spectacularly.

Brad Stephen's must have come up with a helluva game plan.

23 and 14 isn't piss poor either. Spin is a motherfucker.

In a few months you'll be telling everyone how you "knew it all along".

Philly has a Boston problem. I think they can still beat them in a playoff series but the Celtics are a terrible matchup for them.

I think Philly's biggest problem is at the guard spot. Boston exploits the hell out of Redick and McConnell

Embiid has to stop going for Horford's pump fakes too. He gets him up in the air with pump fakes every time.

I think with the new additions they handle Boston but until they actually do it no one can know for sure.

They have to start beating some of the better teams in the East too. Their record against the top 4 is abysmal.

With the team they have constructed there can't be any excuses if they don't make it.

Other than injury of course.
