    He would certainly not vote for Embiid if Jokic was black. I bet there were many other voters like him, who did the same thing, but in a less obvious way. Racist lowlifes! 🤢🤮 Is anyone doing anything about it???

    Mark Jackson’s apology? I call BS! Total rubish!!! Jokic and his ancestors are Serbs, a nation that has never been racist, never had anything to do with slave trade throughout history. If anything, the Serbs were the only people who had a law dating back to the middle ages, when slavery was rife everywhere, stating that whoever sets foot on Serbian land is a free man. Furthermore, the US government unleashed a monstruous attack on Serbian civilians in 1999, bombed the hell out of the country, killing thousands of innocent people including many children. The racist scum, the likes of Perkins and Mark Jackson, think it is justifiable to racially discriminate against Jokic of all people???

    As if the regular season, where the 76ers won more games without Embid than with him while Denver was .375% without Jokic were enough, the playoffs really show who the MVP should have gone to. Embid will never achieve the level of all-time great while Jokic is already there. The MVP voting was pathetically biased.
