Basketball can be a beautiful game when the mind is included in the game. Don't you know his team mates love playing with him. They are all so much better players because of him. And even if they go to another team they are forever improved. And another thing. If that ain't athleticism I dont know what it is
I see Jokic in the title and Im watching that mf video immediately and I will like the video! Also, Jokic is too good for the NBA. That dude just set the new standard for the future big men, and that standard is not easy to find or learn.
I've been saying for a few years.. this kid jokic is like if Larry bird had a kid with kevin Mchale. He's got larrys feel and over all skill. Shooting passing. Rebounds. But then he's got the footwork and post moves of kevin. Is insane how the media shots on him. Coz he's not the flash in the pants polarizing kind of player that mashes headlines. He's a pure hooper.. Something this league needs more of
I am so happy that so many eyes were opened during that Lakers series.Just dont get how it took so long,but partially media fault...I am on Nuggets bus for 7-8 years and it is amazing ride.Enjoy greatness and keep your great work!
The game winner at 10:43 had me thinking.. Man is like a quarterback who's also the running backl! He knows he has barely enough time to make 1 play, receives the ball, turns his head to "check and see" if his shooter on the left is open aka option 1. Knowing Jokic, that look is probably bait as a set up to get a dime into Gordon, who's not open. Option 1/2 are no goes. Option 3, he looks towards Gordon in the paint, not to check if Gordon is open, but to use his vision to check the other corner! However, this part is what makes him potential future GOAT status. Even though his shooter on the right is open, he knows, right now, with the pressure at it's climax, and with a second left on the clock, he's confident enough in his own ability and knows the best way to win is for he himself to BALL TF OUT AND TAKE THE THREE HIMSELF. All this happens in literally a couple seconds! Absolutely insane. Great reaction brother, I rarely comment on videos but I appreciate your actual insight to the sport as a whole. Nice to see someone on the same wavelength when it comes to the small shit. Keep up the good work, subbed.
Welcome to Denver! I’m born and raised and seen every game live since I was a kid. I’m 39 now. It’s amazing to watch and a lot of pleople are missing out.
Jokic is clutch asf i think he already has 9 or 10 gamewinner something like that he is different also he is one of the greatest passer/ playmaker of all time bro can do it all offensivly on elite level the problem was his defense but he improved now he is a avg defender
I think if Nikola Jokic keeps deliver the same performance year after year with the same or even better stats and win at least one more championschip then he might be the greatest center of all time and one of the best players of all time !!
"why I've don't see this highlights before?" I'll tell you why... In everyone of the 5 finals game, the number 1 action on NBA top10 was an Adebayo dunk , finals with the first 30/20/10 game in the finals, and first 30pt double triple double ever.
Great takes! As a longtime Denver and Jokic fan, it’s so much fun to hear another basketball fan experience and enjoy the things we love about the Joker! You have great understanding of the game for such a young man, picking up on all the little things that make Jokic great. Good luck!
People comparing Jokic to Bird is a mistake. They don't play the same way. Even Kevin McHale, Bird's teammate, has pointed this out. Bird played as a true wing and Jokic is 100% a center. Jokic is a combo player: Magic Johnson, Dirk Nowitski and Moses Malone rolled into one. Mike Breen mentioned this in the finals and he's right. Jokic is not quite as good a playmaker as Magic; not quite as good a shooter as Dirk; and not quite the rebounder Malone was. But the fact that he DOES ALL THREE so well for the Nuggets is the mind-boggling part of his game.
Strong comment, thanks. But allow me to differ on 2 of your three comparisons : yes, Malone a better rebounder; Jokic as good or better a passer than Magic; Jokic most definitely a better shooter than Dirk.
i was SO disappointed for Jokics legacy with him not getting 3 MVPs in a row when i knew DAMN WELL he deserved it, but unfortunately he doesn't care about all that and i believe he took his foot off the gas pedal on purpose at the end of the season (on top of him wanting to rest his body for the playoffs) especially after Embiid opted out of playing the game against Nikola closer to the end of the season so that way he wouldn't lose that matchup and his chance in the MVP race. on top of the race BS they were trying to throw in our face that thankfully JJ wasn't gunna just sit by and let them say that sht uncontested. Jokic has been the best in the league for 3 years EASILY, and i don't see that changing anytime soon. i cant wait for next season
Yeah Embiid is a great player but Jokic deserved a third MVP. But I think this next season we may see him get another one. All the media haters were silenced this year. They don't have anything more to say after that playoff run, and him winning the finals and finals MVP.
I'd say it's fortunate that he didn't care about the MVP. Jokic didn't act like a bitch, he showed the world he's the best! He rested/was rested for the playoffs, they wanted the chip!
I haven't watched the NBA since Kobe retired but I still heard about the stars of the NBA just watching other sports related content. The European player I kept seeing and hearing about, that I assumed was the best European in the league, was Luka Doncic. I still assumed LeBron ran the league and there was this guy Luka who was taking the league by storm. Heard nothing and saw nothing of Nikola Jokic until a few months ago when Kendrick Perkins made an ass of himself on ESPN. Jokic is a type of player this league has never seen before and the media has done a terrible job highlighting him. To be fair, it partly , or mainly, do to him not wanting to be a brand or be on social media.
How did Embiid get the season MVP? Jokić was clearly the best player in the NBA. The way Jokic dominated against Embiid in the playoffs should put all the comparisons to rest. He also dominated against other centers who won defensive player of the year awards. He is simply the best in the NBA.
I used to think magic Johnson was the best passer, assist guy, but now, I don't know. Jockic, is the best basketball player I've ever seen! I don't think Wilt could keep up and down the court with him. I sadly don't think Bill Russell could defend him because he was too small and shorter, by a lot. Especially, weight wise. We are watching history before our eyes!
I wasn't watching basketball when Will Chamberlain was playing but if he played anyways like this young man plays Will deserve every ring that he got he deserved them all if he played basketball the way these young man is here is playing basketball especially this 7-footer I mean this young man is bringing the ball up the court passing so if this is what we did when he was League he earned every ring
Great player, absolutely built different, and that's his power. But I think McHale is right: more than Bird, he looks like a Bill Walton player, plus the 3 point shooting of course.
Yeah we had to take it and force people to open their eyes. Not trash of this tunnel vision of Hollywood lakers or Boston or golden state. Still haters talk lol but you have to take it. Make them learn, oh they gonna learn. They gon learn today and learn they did 😂
ion get y espn keep saying that ppl dont like watching em cuz he boring n all that cuz evrey body from die hards to casuals always seem to say they like watching em
I'm a grown-ass man, and watching Jokic play makes me giggle.
I'll watch and like any Jokic content!!!! Best Player In The World.
This man is the best player in the world and i dont think its close

He’s been doing this for years. Glad ur catching up.

He's a pure hooper.. Something this league needs more of
You right.He IS something special

He is Him. 🇷🇸 Great video bro keep em comin ❤💯

Yeah i swear balkan players have this clutch gene or something, like you know that shits going in 😂
Someone need to send this highlight video to Skip and Kendrick Perkins.
Perkins is jealous because (being a center like jokic) his passing and dribbling skills were very poor
He is really good and Happy they won the Championship 47 years and they finally did it!
I think if Nikola Jokic keeps deliver the same performance year after year with the same or even better stats and win at least one more championschip then he might be the greatest center of all time and one of the best players of all time !!
Spot on what you said about the fact that he doesn't telegraph AT ALL lmao. Must be frustrating asl for the opposing D. 😂
Jokic a dawg
"why I've don't see this highlights before?" I'll tell you why... In everyone of the 5 finals game, the number 1 action on NBA top10 was an Adebayo dunk , finals with the first 30/20/10 game in the finals, and first 30pt double triple double ever.
Yeah you can definitely blame ESPN for not really knowing how good he is. 💯
He is really amazing and the reason I started to watch my Nuggets again a great team player
i cant believe a 7 footer is doing all this
He does a great job of scanning the court before the pass gets to him. Super smart.
Great takes! As a longtime Denver and Jokic fan, it’s so much fun to hear another basketball fan experience and enjoy the things we love about the Joker! You have great understanding of the game for such a young man, picking up on all the little things that make Jokic great. Good luck!
And people claim he's boring to watch....🤷🏿♂️
Not people,morons.
You notice some great details about Jokic. I wish you would go in to more detail about the footwork for example. Why is it so good?
ONE OF THE BEST PLAYERS IN NBA HISTORY, PLAYS THE GAME THE WAY IT WAS MEANT TO BE PLAYED, A SCIENTIST ON THE COURT.
Nothing like hitting a J and watch Nuggets make magic...
HE TUF!!!!!!
ESPN did not think young men, like you, would not be interested in hearing and seeing him.
People comparing Jokic to Bird is a mistake. They don't play the same way. Even Kevin McHale, Bird's teammate, has pointed this out.
Bird played as a true wing and Jokic is 100% a center. Jokic is a combo player: Magic Johnson, Dirk Nowitski and Moses Malone rolled into one. Mike Breen mentioned this in the finals and he's right.

What he did to Dwight Howard at 7:07 was ridiculous.
i was SO disappointed for Jokics legacy with him not getting 3 MVPs in a row when i knew DAMN WELL he deserved it, but unfortunately he doesn't care about all that and i believe he took his foot off the gas pedal on purpose at the end of the season (on top of him wanting to rest his body for the playoffs) especially after Embiid opted out of playing the game against Nikola closer to the end of the season so that way he wouldn't lose that matchup and his chance in the MVP race. on top of the race BS they were trying to throw in our face that thankfully JJ wasn't gunna just sit by and let them say that sht uncontested.

If you like basketball there is no way you dont apreciate what jokic does and how he does it
I haven't watched the NBA since Kobe retired but I still heard about the stars of the NBA just watching other sports related content.

Luka gets all the media love but Jokic and Giannis are better players from europe
How did Embiid get the season MVP? Jokić was clearly the best player in the NBA. The way Jokic dominated against Embiid in the playoffs should put all the comparisons to rest. He also dominated against other centers who won defensive player of the year awards. He is simply the best in the NBA.
You really about basketball. You know your stuff man earned a sub
larry was larry bird, jokic is very bird
You're a funny guy. Made me laugh 😂😂
Jokic is a basetball artist. Amazing!
I used to think magic Johnson was the best passer, assist guy, but now, I don't know. Jockic, is the best basketball player I've ever seen! I don't think Wilt could keep up and down the court with him. I sadly don't think Bill Russell could defend him because he was too small and shorter, by a lot. Especially, weight wise. We are watching history before our eyes!
this guy alone made me an basketball fan
the next video ``Nikola Jokić "IQ 999+" Moments``
Dropping in 5 minutes literally 😭😭
9:00 am today stay tuned 4 minutes now 💪🏾
Greetings from Serbia❤
I wasn't watching basketball when Will Chamberlain was playing but if he played anyways like this young man plays Will deserve every ring that he got he deserved them all if he played basketball the way these young man is here is playing basketball especially this 7-footer I mean this young man is bringing the ball up the court passing so if this is what we did when he was League he earned every ring
He may not be the all time best but he’s crazy good, quarterbacking like joe Montana
Better player than Dirk.
The only thing preventing the NBA from having a second golden age is the rules on hard fouls. Flagrant fouls need to be assigned to the dustbin.
Great player, absolutely built different, and that's his power. But I think McHale is right: more than Bird, he looks like a Bill Walton player, plus the 3 point shooting of course.
Not sure why ESPN/NBA chose to eat there Golden Goose in stead of show casing him. Can't hide championships and they are coming.
I think he's all but surpassed Bird at this point. lol Jokic is good at everything.
jokic is a throwback. if larry bird was playing today, he'd look like jokic.
I like passing.
1:08 Neither did I.
He difrnt
Nikola Jokić - 2023 MVP
😂Reci bro, TROZ NOGE😂❤
Dobar ,a good one m8
all those lying sportscasters purposely saying his game is boring just to stir shit up. that stuff needs to go
they say he's boring, btw
@Lil Unc - Great understanding of the game from you! And Nikola is a real unicorn!
nice beat
Jokic does remind me of Bird. Theb iggest difference to me is Bird was much more swaggy.
Yeah we had to take it and force people to open their eyes. Not trash of this tunnel vision of Hollywood lakers or Boston or golden state. Still haters talk lol but you have to take it. Make them learn, oh they gonna learn. They gon learn today and learn they did 😂
But Rodman said if Bird played today, he’d be in Europe…😒. No if he was in the league today, he’d be like Jokic 💯
Where the hell have y’all been, living under a rock?
Supermen🎉🎉
