Reggie Jackson Shares His Favorite Moment Playing With Nikola Jokić

[@vlada]

Hometown kid goes back home near the end of his career and wins the title is always a great story. Reggie Jackson, NBA champ.

[@professor_of_logic]

It's Reggie Jacksonovic to us, and we agree... love from Serbia!

[@JulinhoDaniel]

Nikola is already one of the greatest players of all time

[@nikolakrstic8079]

If you don't take into account accolades, chips etc and just look at pure "how good is he" only peak LeBron can compare to Jokic honestly

[@sinsoreshippromotesconform8218]

One of the greatest to not make all nba defense.

[@miztlivasquez8682]

Greatest white guy of all time. Sorry bird

[@MrCRHawthorne]

PG listening like "dang I picked the wrong big man to play with" lol

[@kam_12_]

what separates Jokic is not just his skill or talent but pairing that with his knowledge and understanding of the game and its many different aspects. truly a 1 of 1 player

[@jasoncorona6427]

Ant and Rudy were mesmerized how Jokic called there play without them saying anything

[@sehlordhorr8540]

His brain, size, skill, touch, commitment.. he’s one of one

[@roo1756]

🐐 STATS 31.9 points 14.6 Rebounds 11.8 Assists 67.1 True shooting percentage 31.7 Usage rate All while having a 56.8FG% and 56.3 3P% The most efficient triple double and he makes it look so easy and effortless. I'd even say it adds more weight to Westbrooks triple dubs considering he's like 6'4?

[@christopherzadnik7028]

He is David Goggins if he hooped

[@MrLycan1995]

One thing people do not mention about Jokic is the volume. Both as availability throughout the season and just the amount of possessions where he creates something for the team. There are other great skilled players doing otherworldly things. But Jokic can do it almost effortlessly sometimes without spending much energy which allows him to just control more possessions from a stamina stand point. Luka is great for example but you watch Luka and Jokic play and Luka has to spend a lot more energy on average to create something. I never seen someone consistently like Jokic just get an entry pass and without taking a dribble just fakes out or jedi mind tricking the defense and creates a great shot for a moving teammate without actually doing anything.

[@nikolalegend4868]

PG your a true legend brate greetings from Serbia 🇷🇸

[@rookieprayerwarrior]

hey PG whats you and Embiid’s favorite moment being part time players? The fans need to know!

[@imelguapo]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[@daddyfuse50]

Lmaooo. Him and Embiid just STACKIN checks. Checking their bank balances in the team hottub

[@bat__bat]

Watching D Jordan and Reggie come off the bench and pick teams apart was a blast. Their Denver run was truly fun to watch and put a smile on my face more than anything happening in the league right now.

[@carter9607]

Damn that was a cool story. I hope Jokic does coach one day. Winning championships as a coach would defo add to his legacy

[@AccordingSign32]

Doubt he will head coach in the NBA. He hates NBA media

[@vlada]

I listened to some Serbian sports guys talk about that last year and they were saying that the only way Jok would coach in NBA when he retires would be Coach Dejan leaves GS to be assistant and takes over as coach of Nuggets when Malone and Jokić retire. Jokić would be willing to be assistant to Deki, his pro coach from Serbia who Jokić idolized when he was a kid and with whom he was a great friend. Coach Deki unfortunately died last year in GS.

[@milicaqwrt]

I'm afraid that some NBA team might throw ridiculous money at him for coaching, but otherwise, I believe he would only coach in Serbia, where he might be able to skip press conferences and be close to his horses...

[@zorankostur]

I think Paul George want to play in same team with Jokic....he praise him also, i think he like him...👏👍

[@berryesseen]

I think anyone who knows basketball likes Jokic. The guy is literally on another level at this point. Numbers are unheard of but it’s not the only thing. The way he does things is just mesmerizing.

[@vlada]

His wife is Serbian so Jokić probably shit talks to him in Serbian 😂

[@AbuKazunari]

Yeah PG definitely wants to play with Jokic instead of the bum fraud mvp he playing with right now

[@RomnysGonzalez]

Well he didn't want it hard enough because he got a chances to sign with our Nuggets but picked the wrong C to follow as his leader instead of Jokic

[@thunderstar254]

​@@vladaIsn't his wife a stripper he only married after he knocked her up? Jokic has enough material for the rest of pg's career

[@jacktheleper4468]

what's crazy about Jokic is how amazing he is on D. He's top 10 in stls/blks. top 3 in deflections. the 3 big advanced analytics have him top 15 for defense. and stat muse just released today an updated ranking that has him the 22nd best defensive player. one spot above Tatum.

[@sdogg]

people have shit on his defence for years, but he has always been elite at deflecting and affecting passes and getting steals

[@Sean.Cordes]

He's legitimately good to great at 90% of defense. He's not good at being a vertical athlete protecting the rim by blocking a lot of shots [duh], and he's not great in space [although he's not near as bad there as people think - he actually holds up fine on brief switches at times and moves his feet well for a guy his size, and key point: he plays up at the level of the screen very, very often, especially against great shooters - that requires good mobility]. People see the lowlights of him just letting guys at the rim get a bucket but he's still good at making guys pick up their dribble and take floaters instead of layups, and he doesnt try to block layups because he knows he doesnt have the vertical athletic ability to get them, and he knows he cant get in foul trouble, so there's really no point. If a guy is taking a layup it's too late already for him to do anything about it.

[@goldmo2427]

His issue is if he was more athletic jumping wise and movement with his feet he probably would be a good interior defender .. that’s basically his one flaw and it’s huge for a big man but he makes up with it in other ways and he shown he can defend guys 1v1 he just not good with certain matchs

[@Sean.Cordes]

@@goldmo2427 and even if he's not good in certain matchups he's still probably the best offensive player of all time. Any defensive shortcomings are mostly irrelevant in that context and can be schemed around. He's still going to win his minutes much more often than not.

[@astromigui]

He's a big strong dude with a very high IQ and mobility/endurance, he is a net positive defender for sure. Even if like you all said he has flaws at that end of the court

[@Primitive_Code]

Reggie keeps saying 'y'all' to George as if George and Jokic are in the same class 🤣. Huge difference in class.

[@majamaja3660]

Reggie Jackson is such unselfish player and human, I love the way that he speak about Nikola

[@PAPICHULO-vc2yu]

PG LOWKEY WANTS TO PLAY WITH JOKIC

[@JulinhoDaniel]

And I don’t blame him😅

[@lucifuge927]

@@JulinhoDanielliterally the easiest job in the world, hitting open three, constant screens from the best screener in the league as well, don’t need to force any shot bc jokic generates everything, would literally be a more dynamic mpj

[@vlada]

​@@JulinhoDanielI think the result of the Russ Westbrook Experience will probably interest older players looking for a ring.

[@berryesseen]

@@lucifuge927 doesn’t this affect the player negatively in the long term? Every player who leaves Nuggets struggles the year after. Most likely because they get used to perfect open shots created for them. In most other teams, you need to work on creating those shots too. But Jokic’s gravity and creation makes it much easier for you.

[@berryesseen]

@@JulinhoDaniel this is kind of disrespect to his team mate Embiid. Paul George shouldn’t mention or ask questions about Embiid’s biggest rival ever.

[@sdogg]

Love Reggie, wish he stayed with us.

[@exlost245]

[@BojanAntonijevicBoki]

Can't wait for Nikola to become a coach... Man, that is gonna be lit!

[@habzuchiha105]

Jokic might go down as the greatest coach when it’s all said and done

[@PashkaBear]

I wish Nikola would coach a Euroloeague team back in Serbia, once NBA is over. Fans are just different here in Europe.

[@milicaqwrt]

He could avoid press conferences and be with his horses 😅

[@Lando_Calzonian_MK8]

We miss Reggie in Denver!

[@twown]

Uhh....

[@jw-nz2vx]

He should be our 3rd PG this year. Should've used those picks we sent out to dump his contract to dump Tyson and Pickett instead. Then we'd have a legitimate 3rd PG and an open roster spot to get another wing or center in here, plus we'd have Reggie on an expiring contract rather than another year with Tyson and Pickett wasting away on the end of the bench.

[@thestigglet]

We do NOT

[@Arrmorant]

Not really. Both Reggie and Justin Holiday didn't leave a remarkable impact unlike Bruce Brown does.

[@maryjanecallo2659]

Where's Justin though? I thought he still in the nuggets but hasn't seen him playing?

[@calebstephan2083]

Reggie was the perfect backup pg for murray. Denver messed up trading kcp and reggie just to give murray that overpaid contract he got. Cant believe murray is getting paid more than players like deaaron fox etc. He has like one good game every 6 games.

[@vlada]

KCP was always going to be replaced by Braun. 5th starter is always expendable. As for Murray, Sixers shouldn't have signed Embiid to extension too but not doing so always comes at a risk. Middleton was not worth the his contract but because they tried to please Iannis they kept him when every sign said no. When Deaaron Fox averages 10 assists in Finals series, we can talk. When Fox goes nuclear in two series like Murray did in 20-21, well circle back.

[@sdogg]

Once he's fit and confident in his body he will be back to his best

[@nh3028]

​@@vlada Jamals extension had nothing to do with our salary this year. We could not have afforded KCP no matter what. People need to uncouple these 2 events.

[@michaelahurt]

​@@nh3028 They could not have afforded Bruce Brown no matter what. They _chose_ to let KCP walk (and take nothing back). There isn't a hard cap in the NBA. Ownership just has to pay the tax. You re-sign KCP and go into the second apron this year and next -- just like Boston is doing -- then you figure the rest out in two years

[@ChanceMath]

I'm glad that Paul George loves the Joker. Paul definitely one of my favorite players and has always had mad swag (no homo)
