NBA fans flames Lou Williams about the latest Nikola Jokic -Take

by

NBA fans did not estimate Lou Williams' comments on Nikola Jokic's career. On Tuesday, the former Los Angeles Lakers and the Los Angeles Clipper Guard in game 1 of their playoff series reacted to the heroic deeds of the Denver Nugget Center against the Oklahoma City Thunder.

During a episode of Fan Duel TV's “Run IT Back” show, Williams replied whether Jokic was a future top 10 player ever.

The retired guard brought Jokic's team-mate Russell Westbrook to a conversation and remembered that the NBA MVP 2017 had on average a triple double double for several seasons, but he was not mentioned as a potential top 10 player.

So far, Williams has estimated Jokic's awards, but does not believe that he should be mentioned in these conversations.

“We didn't make this argument for Russell Westbrook when he did this,” said Williams. “When Russell Westbrook had two or three seasons on average one triple double double, we didn't argue that he was a top 10 player ever.”

He insisted that Jokic still has a long career in front of him and added that we could make a better assessment depending on the Serbian star.

This attached several eyebrows near X. Many fans did not agree with Williams and asked him to led Jokic to a championship, won two more MVPs as a Westbrook and was considered a candidate for several years to add more Michael Jordan trophies.

“Jokic has always been better than Westbrook,” said a fan.

“Westbrook also did not win a championship. The league has to make an excuses in order not to award Jokic MVP awards that he rightly deserves because he has already won too many for the status quo!” Another fan said.

“I'm sorry, but when did Russ 2 MVPs and a team lead to a championship?” A third fan added.

Up to this point, Jokic's career was indeed remarkable. He was won by a commercial to the face of his franchise, won several MVP prices, became an NBA champion in 2023 and was mentioned in conversation about the best player in the world.

The center tries to win a second championship this season, and if he continues to play as he did in game 1 against thunder, Williams may only have to change his opinion about Jokic.
