First-round exit for the Nuggets 😳 Stephen A Smith and Kendrick Perkins debate if Nikola Jokic is REALLY a top-five player 🍿

@stephenasmith @KendrickPerkins HE’S NOT 100%…💀 TF YOU TALKIN BOUT, Nikola Jokić was fine; stop making excuses.😩

Jokic was not 100%???? My god you pieces of shit saw a fat Luka that was literally sick to his stomach lose to Ant and took it as an opportunity to elevate Ant and say he beat Luka and LeBron, you didn’t give AF about context and now you’re saying a fully healthy Jokic wasn’t 100%?? LMAOOOO

@stephenasmith @KendrickPerkins LeBron at jokic age right now brings that same Denver team prolly to the finals lmfaoooo

@stephenasmith @KendrickPerkins Bro yelling like he wasn’t the one saying joker wasn’t better than some of the all time greats 😂😂

@KendrickPerkins @stephenasmith You are absolutely right Big Perk! Hold him to the same standard. Stop apologizing and making excuses. Give Rudy his props. Just find it shocking Stephen A. Apologist. Stop it. Respect Big Perk’s views. He played.

@stephenasmith @KendrickPerkins Jokic sat there and let McDaniels outplay him and send his team home after calling they whole team out

@stephenasmith @KendrickPerkins Everyone who nominated or defended jokic as the mvp just lost all credibility. He’s not in the top 25.

@stephenasmith @KendrickPerkins Oh but when its Kawhi Leonard tho....he gets all the heat, Stephen A Smith is an absolute joke LMAOOO

@stephenasmith @KendrickPerkins He averaged 25-9-13 against “yall claim” the best defender in the league and 4x DPOY.. Carry on.

@stephenasmith @KendrickPerkins Perk always been insanely jealous of Joker's career

@stephenasmith @KendrickPerkins Yo @stephenasmith if that was LeBron in this situation, you wouldn’t be defending him like you defending Jokić. I agree 1000% with @KendrickPerkins 💯

@stephenasmith @KendrickPerkins There Stephen A go trying to defend the white man. But let that been LeBron or another superstar that lose there series he would have been down there throats. That’s why he losing support from BLK people because wat he does and say 🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️

@stephenasmith @KendrickPerkins Listen to SAS make excuses for joker how he didn't have his full roster and blah blah blah let tht have been bron losing tht series he would've unloaded on him how do people listen to MF like SAS and Skip SMH

@stephenasmith @KendrickPerkins These guys contradict themselves all the time. Blames Jokic when he didn’t have any help but then says SGA needs his Robin to win it all. Which is it? Espn gotta get rid of these guys who make takes based on bias. The best analysts they got never played

@stephenasmith @KendrickPerkins If this was Bron or Giannis they would’ve got straight massacred for that type of loss

@stephenasmith @KendrickPerkins Stephen a giving all these excuses but let it been lebron he woulda destroyed him

@KendrickPerkins @stephenasmith Name a top 5 all time center that didn’t play with a hall of famer or an All Star….. Jokic won a title with no fellow Hall of Famer or even All Star on his team. Hell name a top 10 player who hasn’t. Jokic playing with a bunch of inconsistent scrubs.

@stephenasmith @KendrickPerkins Alright this is literally the definition of over exaggeration Monday. Wtf. The only player you can say is better than him rn is SGA and maybe maybe Wemby if they win the title this year. That’s it. Jokic is at worse the third best player and rn id say 2nd.

@stephenasmith @KendrickPerkins So jokic gets all the blame for playing injured his teammates injured and the fact that he had no help from the others,but ant will get the praise being carried by his team this series how bad has ant been this series nobody talks about that

@stephenasmith @KendrickPerkins @KendrickPerkins you need to slow your role. The Joker will always be in the MVP conversation. He wasn’t his best but slow Your role on the Joker. He will always be a threat in the league . Stop clowning big punk.

@stephenasmith @KendrickPerkins He talking about numbers but won’t bring up field goal percentage 😂

@stephenasmith @KendrickPerkins Rare W by Perk. Jokic is 43 all time. He’ll move up after he earns another 1st team.

@KendrickPerkins @stephenasmith Yall see how the energy is different from Stephen A.? Making all kinda excuses 🤣🤣🤣

@stephenasmith @KendrickPerkins He don’t speak on bron like tht he be like we gotta look at kyrie & klove hurt nah bron lost he had to get it done. 🤣🤣🤣🤷🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️

@stephenasmith @KendrickPerkins I love when people bring up Westbrook in response to triple doubles like people don’t put him in top 3 pg convos with no ring lmaooooo

@KendrickPerkins @stephenasmith Of course he’s not. He’s arguably one of the most overrated players in the league.

@stephenasmith @KendrickPerkins Why is this even a debate. He is clearly a top 5 player. No debate needed just stop with the rage bait ESPN and get back to interesting stories for the people. Do some actual journalism…

@stephenasmith @KendrickPerkins SAS making excuses for this man!! Let that a been LeBron at age 29 losing in the first round!!! They would be murdering that man !! Still all summer talkin bout it- ain’t not one player in the playoffs a 100% they all hurting!Stop making excuses and keep that same energy!

@stephenasmith @KendrickPerkins more accolades than 3 mvps? Lmfaoo

@stephenasmith @KendrickPerkins This should show people that stats are not the be all end all. He averaged 25,13 and 9 but got out “played”. Sounds familiar doesn’t it just let that sync in.

@stephenasmith @KendrickPerkins Perkins is a a hater, not a single soul will ever remember him for his play on the court just for his bad takes. Jokic could be at his absolute worst while Perkins could be at his absolute best and Perk is still no where near Jokic’s level.

@stephenasmith @KendrickPerkins Perk is right on this. And Stephen A sitting looking stupid. He on Lebron more about this rockets series and potentially losing that more than he is on jokic who is in his prime and supposed to be the best player in the world.

@stephenasmith @KendrickPerkins Perkins ain't top 3000

@stephenasmith @KendrickPerkins Perk is enjoying this…. He is a female dog, for sure.

@stephenasmith @KendrickPerkins Can we get rid of Kendrick? Hey does not like the nuggets never has. Now he can talk his stuff about the Nuggets and back it up because they lost. He’s happy about it. Same with the Broncos when I see him on there I change the channel.
