Micheal Porter Jr. Is such a special individual. You saw him start with a lot of individual drive. Now he is so team focused, Nikola fan, and humble. And is 10x better individually than when he started. I love his interviews. He is such a key key piece of the epicness that is the Nuggets. Best team I’ve watched. I was obsessed with 90’s basketball but 2024 Nug’s supersede it all. I really wanna see them take out Lakers again. Tough match up.

​@@mja4wpMe too. I was a Laker fan growing up, way back when they played at the Fabulous Forum. My hero back then was Jerry West. We had West, Abdul-Jabar, Baylor, Goodrich, Riley, and others. I stopped watching when Magic Johnson retired. I felt the game was becoming too "me" oriented rather than team oriented. Fast forward to now when I kept reading about The Joker in news clips and decided to check him. I loved his post game interviews! And watching him play reminded me of why I originally loved basketball. Unselfish teamwork! I still live in California, a bit north nowadays, so I rooted for the Dubs when I'd visit a friend who was a die-hard fan. That was until I got hooked by the Joker last year. Now I'm a Denver Nuggets fan. The whole team camaraderie is refreshing. I also saw the chat MPJ had with Aaron Gordon and was so impressed with how down to earth both were. I gained a lot of respect for AG when he shared how on off days he liked to be alone and write in a journal and do some self reflection. I LOVE the Nuggets! Repeat! Repeat! Repeat!

The Nuggets organization deserve a lot of credit, made all the right decisions, drafted Murray as 7th pick, Malik Beasley as 19th (was pretty good), found Jokic and decided to keep him over Nurk, took a risk with MPJ who had massive back issues and traded for AG, KCP and Bruce Brown. And now Watson, Braun and Zeke Nnaji all look really promising. They even took Bones Hyland who's very gifted as well. No superstars, no huge trades, just great decisions and perfect execution.

@elliotmyers625
@elliotmyers625 6 ай бұрын
Jokic is incredible, but it's also a really unfair comparison. The game was so much slower and lower scoring during Bird's time that people don't understand how great he was. When you're the best player on your team, and your team only managed 88 points, it is hard to compare it to a game where the winning team scores 135. There's so many more shots, rebounds, and passes in a game now that the best players are going to absorb a lot of those stats. That's why a guy like Harden will look so much better in the history books than he really was. Jokic actually is a great comparison for Bird now. They do a lot of the same things, but the stats will end up saying that Jokic was much better.

I wasn't aware of these facts, but I wrote an article in a magazine about success of Nuggets and about Nikola and his basketball IQ, its impact on the entire team and the game. I also discussed the difficult decision to part ways with Jusuf Nurkic and Nikola's game philosophy and talent. Furthermore, I noted that the MVP titles and the Nuggets' success are well-deserved, not only by the players on the court but also by the excellent coach Mike Malone, who recognized Nikola's talent, as well as the owner and supporting team. I am pleased that this video has confirmed my assumptions about the events and their success. I hope they secure another championship ring, and I wish I could witness it firsthand. Go Nugets!

I am so glad that Jokic happened because now we know for 100% that Bird would be just as good as he was before nowdays and IMO better since the game is more suited for him today. There is even an interview of Bird where he says how big of a fan he is of Jokic and Nuggets and how they are his most fun team to watch. He would fit in that style of offense with no adjustment, you could just pluck him from 80s and put him in.

It's interesting that the scouts, analysts, and commentators remark about a player's "Bball IQ" when actually they are observing a person with advanced hand-eye coordination talent. (Not sure if this can be developed as a "skill".) Coach Bob Knight remarked on video in answer to a question that he believed, as of that time, that Bird had the most elite hand-eye coordination talent in the history of basketball. Today we see players like Jokic and Doncic and a couple of others who are able to both recognize and complete assist opportunities that are of historical greatness. Jokic's passing routinely goes beyond what Bird performed. There are plenty of players (some of whom gravitate toward coaching during their careers) with the aptitude ("IQ") to grasp the deeper patterns and principles of a sport, including basketball, but who do not have the natural talent in their arms and hands to put the ball where they want, with high accuracy.

I saw Larry, MJ, Magic, Duncan, and lot of others big guys playing, but for me, Joker is better than this players, because of his qualities and competences, his talent and IQ, but more because of his winner's mentality, his team's game and his altruism. But what impressed me more, is how he adapted his game to his physicall's qualities and how he improved them and his game every years without injuries. It's his biggest performance.. He's not far away from perfection. I've never seen that before in basket. In an itw I saw, he explained his mental's preparation, how he visualised possibles situations in the game after watching videos of his opponents, and how he was important for him to be concentrated to give the best passes to his team-mates. Some people said he didn't care of basket, wasn't enough invested, because he didn't react after winning but the fact is that he needs time to come back to the reality.. He explained that he was so concentrated when Nuggets win final, that he didn't realized and that he was so impressed and touched by the happyness of fans in Denver's streets he saw on stadium's TV at this moment that he can't react, since he saw his wife and girls in the stands. This man is something else, he is what I admire the most in Sport : when an athlete is so invested in his sport, that he neglects nothing to be efficient and can combinate his physicals, mentals and technicals qualities to perform. The same biggest player all time in basket than Antoine Dupont in rugby..❤❤

Any Larry fan would tell you Nikola is Bird 2.0. Larry's a legit 6'10 but listed 6'9 to play the 3. Nikola has the advantage of todays faster offensive friendly game and obviously having a true center 7foot body in a league of stretch 5's. Larry would demolish in today's game. Numbers off the charts with a green light on deep 3's. Would be a 6'10 Jokic only he'd have steph gravity coming into the league today...

The Denver Nuggets are a team that has playful players off the bench. Denver's reserve team is in full form. Reserve players play 2 to 5 minutes in each game. In the last game, MPJ had 5 percent better 3-point shooting -25 percent. Elite shooter MPJ will improve his form for the playoffs - he will shoot for 3 like last year in the playoffs.-29 percent

Its crazy to me. I am not that big a fan of NBA analytics and I wouldn't call myself someone who watches even 3 games a week, but even I could tell Nikola was a monster early in his career. He was just so efficient and he was skilled at making reads and had confidence in his shot. The only thing for me at the time was, can he handle pressure? Because that is an intangible trait and cannot be measured. As we see now, with the benefit of hindsight, yes. He can. So they made a good choice. Obviously.

Alright, I might catch some heat for this. However, MPJ's jumper and confidence together with his hight reminds me of Drazen. I understand that the legend was elite, but if MPJ keeps going, I do see him being capable of being a similar menace

@@silewis9396 He's the best interviewer I've seen (better than even JJ). He asks thoughtful questions and lets his guests speak , without interruption. Maybe the production quality is much higher... but MPJ clearly has a knack for this... much more than playoff P, draymond or some of those other guys trying to spin podcasts.

Mr. Kroenke, you might want to go after Luka? Luka with Murray, MP, AG, and Jokic! Oh my! That lineup could win 4 STRAIGHT Championships! The Nuggets next "3" first round picks won't be worth more than Luka! Seriously TRADE 4 LUKA!

It wouldnt work. You cant remove your best defender for a player that is an offensive genius, but doesnt compare defensively. Doncic would replace Murray if he came in. So... yeh... he does not replace KCP
