It demonstrates how a child thinks conflict resolution should be handled vs how it is actually handled by a competent, mature, and self-confident person. It's clear Joker is a better basketball player than Shaq but doesn't care about that comparison. What he does care about is being a better person than Shaq, and in that category, he dominates him and showed it during that interview.

I was upset when the sports media started turning against Jokic and his regular season performances. All the loudmouths in the sports media said he wasn't worthy of winning MVP. After the Nuggets were 2-0, I said to myself, "I really hope Jokic and the Nuggets prove these haters wrong." I hoped they would turn things around so they could shut up haters like Stephen A and Shaq. I was shocked at how Shaq treated the MVP on live television. Instead of praising him for his accomplishments at such a crucial moment when someone is receiving an award, Shaq decides to bash him and tell him that he's not worthy of being named MVP. That was so tasteless and unprofessional. It was neither the time nor the place to make such a comment while awarding someone the MVP.

Right now, he's killing it and deserves the recognition from the league. Oh, I forgot, I also like how humble the man is.

What's crazy too is Shaq only had MVP consideration in 2005 because the Miami Heat's record improved greatly after trading a couple starters for him. He was worse statistically than his LA form. Wade also made a huge jump that season. So voters had to decide who was more valuable to their team -- Shaq or Nash? Shaq went 2nd and Nash won. Nash didn't steal any MVPs from Shaq!

Jokic doing all these awesome performances guarded by 2 seven footers, the best defense in the league, and in games where most would panic and crumble. Not only is he consistent like no other player in history, but he ruses up when needed most. IQ is on a different level too even compared to someone like Luka, who would make boneheaded plays at times. Jokic goes for what is needed & efficiency.

I think it's a learned behavior that Shaq carried on from some of the great centers before him. He tells stories about Ewing and Kareem not giving him respect early in his career until he earned it, so Shaq probably thinks he's doing the same thing now. Problem is, Jokic earned these 3 MVPs and ring and FMVP so that hate needs to stop. Jokic is a proven man.

Jokic is the best player in the world by a large margin. If anyone disagrees with that is either a plain hater or it’s race driven.. There’s no other reason to not consider him the best in the game.. there is not one player in the league that is more impactful when they are on the court than Nikola Jokić. And what’s crazy is it looks like he’s doing it without even breaking a sweat. He has cranked it up every single game as they get deeper into the playoffs. I’ve been watching basketball basketball and have been a Suns fan my whole life and I haven’t seen a player impact their team more than the joker. Obviously he doesn’t have the resume that LeBron James has or Michael Jordan but if this man keeps it up for another 7 to 10 years, we could be talking about him as the greatest player ever. He doesn’t speed or quickness to dominate so I feel like he can maintain this level of play or get better for years.
