"Not doing anything kids wanna see" - being a down to earth family man who doesn't do drugs and stuff AND he loves horses more than fame... He is a person I would want my kids to look up to in many ways.
He's probably right because kids gravitate to dunks and athletic moves. When you become an adult you realize that the object of the game is to win and he's a winner.
I think the Denver Nuggets is legitimately afraid that Jokic would retire after his current contract ends after the 2027-28 season. Jokic just might say "I've earned enough money for me and my family to live comfortably for the rest of our lives. I just want to go back home with my family in Serbia and live the rest of my life raising and racing horses."
Jokic is a playmaker in a giant body. His play may not have been that attractive and not quite show , but it is unique and inspiring. He is at the service of his team. His behavior is in the Christian spirit, he teaches children to be modest, selfless and to share among themselves, finding the ultimate happiness in serving the goals of the group. And what a cohesive basketball team can do, especially in defense, was best demonstrated by Serbia, which dominated the USA in three and a half quarters of the game, even though it was objectively weaker than the opponent.
If he would be American, and if they would understand his way of living, he would be praised as God and there would be books and movies planned. At least Netflix special :D
Well Tesla had simmilar mentality. They don't care about fame. But if you talk shit about Serbs you will see another Djokovic and all famous "Serbian quotes" on USA soil. 😁
T Mac living legend....Man, I woke up at 2, 3 A.M. just to watch Rockets and T-Mac. !!! Also when Divac and Peja Stojakovic played in Sacremento same story watching game,sometimes when game end rest hour or two and go to school... God old times 2002-2003... Now my small city is full of drog,on basketball field full ofjunkis,park too. Love from Serbia!!!
He's got perception and he anticipates where his teammates are moving as a great compensation for not being athletic for NBA standards. It's odd to se a center with play style that often resembles point guards, but he reminds you that NBA basketball is a team sport instead of one on one contest. 🍻🍻🍻🍻 So his qualities make other four guys more efficient players. I can't imagine how to calculate total contribution to one's team, but I guess he would score extremely high there. 🍺🍺🍺🍺
its so bad to see how this video is cheating for clicks! there is NO Michael Jordan in the video but they put him as a video cover! It's so cheap and pathetic!
Good video and when I hear those people talk about Jokic then understand how special he is and how difficult he is to defend him. What sets him apart is his approach to basketball. He is not interested in flashing around, jumping 3m in the lift, pounding all that stuff that you see but simply plays on a different level which can be difficult to read. He has the advantage of being tall and strong without muscles, but combined with the fact that he has many skills, he solves problems without getting stuck. The guys in the video explained it very well.
The reason why I watched NBA again is because of Nicola Jokic! I am a fan of MJ and KB but I stopped watching after they are gone from NBA courts! Jokic adds life to basketball games because of his ingenuity!!!❤❤
The answer to why his skills are so great, passing, field survey, throwing, may seem strange to people from the US, but it is because in Europe, in schools, every team sport is played, football, handball, Basketball, volleyball. Due to this, the range of skills and coordination is much higher than that of US players. It is often the case that even a good footballer or handball player changes the discipline, e.g. at the age of 16 or even 18. In Poland it was, for example, Marcin Gortat, who played football until he was 18.
Jokic has what it takes in basketball to make him shine above the majority. He reminds me of Pistol Pete Maravich way back in the late 1960s when he played college basketball and threw three-pointers, though he garnered only two points for every basket. Yet he broke all the records until recently....
he reminds me of a better bill walton on offense (obviously walton is an alltime great defender and jokic is an alltime meh defender but the passing and how/where he posts up from is similar)
people dont see it but to hes got more stamina as big than most of small/fast players he must put loads of extra work to achieve that wish he had better support from the board to win some more
he doesnt care for real, all of us who know his mentalitly we know. He is like ooo i wll try, no big deal if i fail. Just do it. And Nike refused him.😂 He is all that Nike is about. 😊
Take it from Bam Adebayo, Joker don’t flop unlike the other guy from Philly no wonder he is always injured trying to flop his way to the floor all the time, unlike Joker will try to bully and get buckets.
Welcome to future Balkan Nba...Because from here comes brain...Not only sport predisposition...All respect from Zagreb, Croatia, ex Yougoslavia, Balkan...
It's easy to measure vertical and speed and all that, but how do you measure the ability of someone's hands? That's what makes Jokic elite. He would be a top 5 center in the league just by size and intelligence, but the shooting and passing are like Steph. It can come out unorthodox but the ball goes where he means it to go. He never misses a pass or a shot by a mile, no matter how tough it is, he aims small and misses small.
Gilbert Arenas was never as good a player as Jokic is today...Arenas was a better scorer and that's it...many hated Jokic not just because he is a "white dude" but because he is a white dude and from Europe.many Americans, especially the black dudes, can't believe that a guy like Jokic or Nowitzki or the Gasol brothers are and were simply better at basketball than many of the Americans
people overrate athleticism so much yo. joker just produce time and time again. who gives a sh*t if he dont have a style like a kyrie irving or kevin durant. i know i dont care how it gets done, he does it.... for 90% of lebrons career he got most of his points by just running through ppl and dunking, yet nobody critiques lebrons greatness.... cmon ppl!!!
everyone that’s played against him looking like a victim on law and order svu gil out here talking out his ass “no one wants to see him play” 😂 speak for yourself gilbert
Dislike and reported for false advertisement. Other than your thumbnail implied, Michael Jordan never commented on Jokić in your video. Please all report it.
"could own a scoring title if he wanted to" - completely false. Jokic is one of the most overrated players to ever play. He is very good, but this whole media hype, and all because it is part of the NBA attempt to globalize the sport.
There are about three real centers in the NBA. He is simply bigger than anyone. What happened in the Minnesota series last year? Whenever he was guarded by KAT, they went away from him. And then the twolves started to double him (some team for once!) he couldn't score. Fact is, he cannot take over a game if a team focuses on stopping him from scoring.

Very well said.
So proud of my Srb "idemo " we love you Nikola 😊
Some kids at my gym stopped shooting half court shots and are now moving the ball and making plays. The Jokic effect.

Ne pretjeruj
@@markovincek1835 Nije reko da je Jokic najbolji ikad, nego najbolj kog je on video.
So you're suggesting he's never seen a single MJ game? Or he's missed all of LeBrons games? Really? @@lanmana8268
I hope that Jokic will be at this level for many more years. Just because of his "I don't care" attitude.
I think the Denver Nuggets is legitimately afraid that Jokic would retire after his current contract ends after the 2027-28 season. Jokic just might say "I've earned enough money for me and my family to live comfortably for the rest of our lives.

I agree with you 💯 not 🚫 like p diddy party
I don't see many christians invoking that spirit these days. Not sure why you though that was relevant.
If he would be American, and if they would understand his way of living, he would be praised as God and there would be books and movies planned. At least Netflix special :D
Well Tesla had simmilar mentality. They don't care about fame.
But if you talk shit about Serbs you will see another Djokovic and all famous "Serbian quotes" on USA soil. 😁
He is easily top 10 already, more than likely ends in the GOAT conversation he is that darn good.
Prime Jokic is just happening in next 5-10 years 😅
GOAT….AND ITS WONDERFUL when everyone agrees. I know he will inspire many kids
Unbelievable player. So damn good. Super High IQ. A very smart and good player.

We will NEVER see PRIME Jokic. Because he simply don't care. He's good enough to win. Even if he could be at least 2x better.
He doesn't love media not the basketball, he cares a lot
He's got perception and he anticipates where his teammates are moving as a great compensation for not being athletic for NBA standards. It's odd to se a center with play style that often resembles point guards, but he reminds you that NBA basketball is a team sport instead of one on one contest.

You’re one of those people huh? “Can’t read so you depend on picture books” types. Lol.
He is a giant genius. Both of his parents are engineers.
Halfway true, his mom's played volleyball, but maybe she graduated later?
Haw much i read his father is an agricultural engineer, and his mother is a nurse.
When Arenas says something bad about you, you’re on the right track
💯

He’s got what they call “court vision”.
Jokic just playing just serbian street basketball in nba that trick skill same like we played as kids in serbia
Joker reminds me of Rick Barry, the only baller to lead the NBA, ABA, and NCAA in scoring. Jokic’s tools are genius-level.
Ha ha ha!Apart from movement,you also need to have intelligence,and Jokic has it!
check out the song "Ballin like Jokic" by Black Serbs

Jokic is the G.O.A.T! 🇷🇸 ❤️
imagine if his bum teammates didn't miss the open shots as they usually do
A missed fact: he’s got a v quick 1st step. Esp when he whirls around to his left to put up rt hand shot
JOKER "YOU CANT GUARD ME" :D
Nikola is a legend.

By the way gregg popovich is also from serbia Check is bio. Best TRAINER in the nba serb AND best Player in the nba from serbia ! Ist a pattern😅
I know you not talking about Gregg the coach.. cuz he’s most certainly not from Serbia
