How did Nikola Jokić perform in his recent game?

Trista 0:06
Did you freaking see our man Jokic last night? Two nights ago?
Juju 0:15
MVP. MVP.
Trista 0:16
Yo, he could have put up 80 points if he wanted to.
Juju 0:20
Yeah.
Trista 0:21
He had 25 in the first quarter. In the first quarter.
Juju 0:29
Yeah, he locked in right now for the MVP. Guaranteed lock of the year.
Trista 0:34
Do you watch shows about serial killers ever?
Juju 0:37
Absolutely not. Like, I try not to at all.
Trista 0:42
My mom loves all those serial killer shows. I like Dexter. And one of the things that Dexter always did when he was basically the plot of the show.
Juju 0:51
No spoiler alert.
Trista 0:52
He's a guy who's like a blood spatter analyst that works for the police department, but he's actually a serial killer that kills serial killers.
Juju 1:00
Oh, major spoiler alert. I did not know that right there.
Trista 1:02
He's actually based in Miami. It really should be a Dan Lebitard show. Damn. And so, anyway. He brings in donuts every day for the crew to make himself seem normal. And I was talking to somebody on the group chat last night, and they said that Jokic, when Nurkic was traded to Portland and Jokic had the full-time starter role, he was walking down the tunnel with a bag, like a five-pound bag of loose candy and just offering candy to everyone in the tunnel that he could. And I was like, that's a serial killer. on the court that is uh trying to make himself look human he's like everything about him that you see looks human except for when he steps on the court did you see the floater do we have the floater miss rebecca when did he develop that in his game you know good and down well miss rebecca ain't got no damn floater miss rebecca whole back just started sweating there we go the big screen way too yeah i like that she learned a new trick
Juju 2:07
All right, the Clippers with the orange-ass jerseys. Woo! He didn't even shoot that guy. Bro, listening audience, he's dribbling, and he went to lay it up, and it just floated from his hand to the net.
Trista 2:26
Well, and we've seen players with floaters before. I just don't see, I haven't really seen a lot of Jokic floaters. He's putting these kids on skates. The Clippers are now, I think, lost their last six games. They're just a mess. Bradley Beal out for the year.
Juju 2:43
Right, not to mention that part. Bradley Beal out for the entire season dealing with a hip fracture. I'm like, bro, bro is the glass, man, bro. It's time to hang it up. It's time to hang it up. I'm sorry. You done hijacked the whole Suns' future as well as now the Clippers' future with your hurt self. Like, I think Bradley Beal is a dog. D-O-double-G, like snootin' him. But at the same time, your best ability is what? Your availability. And my boy be available in street clothes only for the past, what, umpteen years. Even with the Wizards. My boy would hurt. I'm not saying, I'm not trying to get in the way of your money. But at the same time, it's time to hang it up.
Trista 3:30
What kind of dog is Bradley Beal?
Juju 3:33
My boy, Blue Nose.
Trista 3:35
You feel me?
Juju 3:37
Blue Nose Pit, man. Come on, bro. We not finna play with Bradley Bill name, bro.

What are the implications of Bradley Beal's season-ending injury?

Juju 3:43
We just ain't seen a healthy one in years, bro. Come on, bro. My boy got the Kenny Smith early at stage right now.
Trista 3:50
He was healthy in Phoenix. He was healthy in Phoenix. And he looked so healthy.
Juju 3:55
Was he mentally healthy?
Trista 3:57
Okay, here we go. Here we go.
Juju 3:59
Okay, look. See, now mental health don't matter. Look at my sister.
Trista 4:03
The besmircher, ladies and gentlemen. Where was that grace for Brandon Ingram when he threw the water bottle at Cuz?
Juju 4:09
Nah, bro, that's different, bro. You got Glo sitting right there two seats down, bro. He throwing water on everybody, bro. Nah, grow up, bro.
Trista 4:15
Bradley Beal's a hot mess. Meanwhile, Norm Powell, the guy that they discarded for Bradley Beal, is probably going to win, like, maybe most improved player, maybe sixth man of the year. I don't know.
Juju 4:25
For sure.
Trista 4:25
But he looks... Really good.
Juju 4:29
Right. And on top of that, if I mean, salute to LeBron, salute to the king. But remember, if the king would have just gave us like an extra day notice last year that you didn't want to play in the All-Star game. But Norman Powell is an All-Star, one time All-Star on his resume already. So he might not even be considered for these awards.
