The Brilliance of Nikola Jokić 🃏

[@bogoljubdjordjevic7528]

He is really special

[@shannynwells2068]

The whole team plays unselfishly. That's why they are so good.

[@aleks5022]

The team adopted Jokic's philosophy.

[@susanstamboulian646]

They'll win a lot of NBA Titles, as long as Jokic stays healthy. As a diehard Celtics fan, I have no doubt that if we play Denver in the Finals, Denver will win. Boston is deeper, and more athletic. But, like Larry Bird, Jokic has a brain. Easily the greatest player of this generation. I'd take him 100 times out of 100 over LeBron James. A thousand times classier, no constant drama and bitching about the refs, and makes his teammates better, like Bird and Magic did. And I guarantee you, he won't wind up signing with the Lakers to chase titles, like LeBron SO predictably did. You just knew from day one of his career, LeBron would wind up signing with the Lakers at some point. smh

[@chir0pter]

Here's how it works: The brain (Joker) sends a signal (pass) to an appendage (teammate) to move (shoot an easy shot) A player like Gordon must either be extremely unselfish or too dim to realize he is an extension of the Joker's mind and the physical embodiment of the Joker's vision. That's what it looks like at least!

[@nero8484]

So smart this guy!!!

[@slobodankaantonijevic2223]

To je Srbin kao i Đoković Novak, mala Srbija rasadnik izuzetnih talenata, pozdrav

@@slobodankaantonijevic2223 I wonder sometimes if the exceptional athletes from the Balkans is a consequence of not having expended their best men in the meatgrinder of a war they started (WWI), not to mention WWII, like the major countries of Western Europe did

[@beau2776]

Joker gets it. He's in it to win, not showboating. That's why he is an MVP every year.

[@JCxGOLF]

I get that same sense watching him too

[@susanstamboulian646]

Well, he SHOULD be the MVP every year, but the voters will never allow that to happen, for a very obvious reason. Just like Bird should've won 5 straight MVP awards in the 80s, but in 87, they decided it was just Magic's time to win one, then in 88, Larry had the best year of his career, yet no MVP.

[@aleks5022]

Jokic is God's gift to the game of basketball.

[@manoloribera9362]

A “god” doesn’t exist. Jokic is a living mammal who is extremely smart and great at his craft.

[@keithtorrence2487]

No

[@mihailovukelic4058]

Straight up.

[@williamweiss6128]

Love this guy. Extreme basketball IQ.

[@casualfan-m5x]

were watching greatness from the baby goat 😮

[@Jokic1515]

He is the best❤❤

[@dal20402]

So fun to watch Jokić and Gordon. Either one is totally capable of banging around in the post to make room for the other to get open, and then making a telepathic pass.

[@angelatanurdzic7508]

Incredible Nikola! 🃏

[@1211940]

Excellent

[@johnhaney4475]

Also, Aaron Gordon is underrated and a key part of like 3/4 of these plays. Perfect fit, Denver GM should have won something for that move alone

[@Rylopero]

Won a championship

[@paulhale929]

What a great baller. so great to watch

[@Paolo-gc9us]

Jokic is great but the entire team is synchronized and several players have great talent. Extraordinary timings

[@bojanpolic8028]

y thats why they fall apart when he is on bench

[@DF-ni5sy]

Do you turn it off when he goes to the bench or something? He is their center and their point guard all in one. They just fling shots when he's on the bench.

[@Paolo-gc9us]

Oookay he's also the main playmaker however I mean that his teammates are fully in sync with him and always ready to take advantage of his passes and even to pass very cleverly.

[@boudewijnkerkwijk4695]

Michael (dont call him Mike) Malone is an excellent coach, too

[@RedWay7]

GOAT ❤🧡💛

[@milanmujezinovic]

I grew up in MJ era. But, if someone than told me that I will live "Nikola Jokić era", I probably said " don't talk shit" to them

[@dragicaandrejevic2060]

Denver nuggets MPJ's smartest player. He has a guaranteed 33 million per season and a starter's place - why would MPJ run and sweat. Coach MM must not put him on the bench - MPJ slowly moves around the field like a pensioner and stands and waits for an assist from the spot to shoot, without dropping the ball. MPJ is the smartest player and worst wing in the NBA

[@BackupPlans1]

​@@dragicaandrejevic2060Didn't ask

[@sizableyeet]

Could you imagine a world where Jokic got even half of Embid’s calls?

[@keithtorrence2487]

Can you imagine a word where Jokic got called for offensive fouls?

[@bugokkkgaming1233]

@@keithtorrence2487 hahahahaahaha u better watch carefully .. he bully balls but not to an offensive extent

[@David-nh2dn]

​@@bugokkkgaming1233nah he really likes to push off. Especially when he's up against good defenses and he gets frustrated. He starts that push off stuff all the time

[@tihomirvukovic1499]

[@TimothyMullikin]

I never thought I would watch another NBA basketball game again, but I love the Nuggets team

[@manoloribera9362]

Why not?

[@vincevice1398]

​@@manoloribera9362Cos NBA sucks now. Jokic makes it watchable

[@daviru02]

100% with you. I've been watching college up until I discovered Nokic.

[@soloistdeve]

Same. Only watched Joker games for a year. I was out after 19.

[@robovac3557]

What about that other white dude, ain't he great too? ​@@vincevice1398

[@ralphpadilla9283]

Nikola Jokic is the NBA's MVP-Most Valuable Player and the MEP-Most Entertaining Player.

[@robovac3557]

And also the RFP which is Ralph's Favourite Player.

[@DeeKAAM]

I don’t understand how he’s “boring” lolz kuz he don’t dunk N cross people but does no look passes almost erry game

[@izsan9070]

Because their favourite can't do what Jokic did.

[@SeverSTL]

That constant dunking and chest-beating was getting old fast.

[@angelicaamora11]

Actually makes him more interesting indeed

[@RedWay7]

yeah xd how can someone be boring when you never know his next move 🤨

[@tebra643]

He's only boring to dumb people

[@daveg1893]

MVP again

[@ariskalayan8108]

La NBA por aburrida deje de seguirla hasta que descubri este serbio Joke. Toma el balon y se espera una genialidad. Esto te atornilla frente a la TV.🎉

[@freerun4370]

This man is playing the best players and making it look like another day in the office. Absurd passing sense. Deadly precision and if there ever are no openings he'll just sink it himself anytime.

[@rastaman2722]

If Nuggets stay healthy, they'll make the back 2 back. Nobody can beat them in a best of 7...

[@Longtime420]

Jokic got passing like Chris Paul and is scoring like Larry bird 😅

[@nutswanger6655]

The GOAT. Not even close. Its unreal

[@aleks5022]

Just WOW!

[@jamessifsof6901]

Joker comes from the European game. Team oriented. The US game is clear out and let your star shine. The team game will win most of the time. US players don’t understand that.

[@tastytesty]

My take is... This is all because of the warriors. They went small, and everybody went small... Suddenly, you have to deal with a big guy who can pass and has Larry Bird's shot posture. Good luck finding a match up for that one.

❤NIKOLA GENIJE❤

[@MrTheRevertz]

Aaron Gordon was such a good player to pair with jokic

[@AIcompany1]

Jokic is from Serbia and he has a balls and IQ, he is the best player on the world with lot of records for short time, if Yugoslavia make team America do not have a chance 😁

[@AIcompany1]

Jokic, Doncic, Adetokumpo, Bogdanović Bogdan an many of them, europe will take care of America cause America don't know how to play defense

[@nestorcorpuz1603]

Most centers is always in the low post but he's not, he's a center point guard

[@JohnSmith-qq7yw]

The correct term is a point center. Jokic is the first point center the game has ever seen.

[@Longtime420]

So happy for Aaron Gordon half his assists that Jokic does are towards Gordon glad he got to show his true talent unlike in Orlando

[@landiago1]

I guarantee this is the most the rim has seen Aaron Gordon dunks is with Jokic😂

I’m so interested in the random 90s vs current era debates. Jokic is freaking great in any era but if he’s scoring like he does imagine what someone like David Robinson would do to these Swiss cheese defenses as well 😂

[@yonatielu3881]

He has 100% connection with his teammates
