In an era of selfish player first mentality, Nikola is a breath of fresh air. A true humble, class act, and the best damn player in the league right now.
Jokic's team spirit is as impressive as his game. He hit two deep 3 pointers and didn't even wink but when Bruce Brown hit some good shots in the 4th qtr, Joker was losing his mind it was so wholesome.
Serbian translation for the question: Interviewer: Congratulation on the outstanding win! Would you like to say why did you win, and how was the (dynamic of the) game tonight? And how will you prepare the the next one? Thanks again! Nikola: It was a difficult game, like every other up until now. But I think that we controlled the play during the majority of the game, or even the whole game. They (Heat) had some recovery series where they came close to us with 3 or 4 points difference. But we controlled that part. We had a lot of open shots, we got some, some we didn't. But the way we played was good, and I'm satisficed. As for the next game, we have one game that we have to win. We were in a situation that they are in now, so we know how they are mentally and how do they feel. So, we will not relax.
Morris hit him dirty and turned around, wtf are you turning your back to someone you just did dirty and not expecting to get hit??? Morris played stupid game and won stupid prize
Maybe it’s just me, but it brings a smile to my face for them to have a reporter question him in his native tongue, you can see how detailed he gets because he’s clearly more comfortable. It’s great to see both sides of him.
I think it's just because he sometimes struggles with English, and you can see by his facial reactions sometimes, he realizes he made a grammar or pronunciation mistake when talking in English and then he wants to correct himself and ends up messing up even more :D
He is the best in NBA right now, and his reaction to Djokovic's SMS was "Yeah, he texted me, really , he texted me, yeah" was so honest, like a big kid. Love this man
His english is more than decent I'd say. It seems to me that he's just annoyed by the questions he's being asked (like when he was asked about Gordon and suggested questions about himself rather). The serbian journalist must have been someone he appreciates and also probably the idea that that answer would be the one shown on tv in his home country made a difference in his tone.
30, 13 and 10 over 18 games. .540, .470, .800 - It speaks for itself. Ive watched this game for 40 years now. This is unique. He's fuckin different all the way around.
Nikola is amazing he brought so much love and sportsmanship in Nuggets and also in all NBA. Thank you Nikola. Thanks to your parents that raised amazing human being.
NJ seems like a great teammate on and off the court. Kudos to him, Murray and the coaches for establishing a culture that must be a blast to be a part of. This team is reminiscent of the GSW when they were beginning their run. Fun to watch.
The referees were horrible. They gave Miami undeserved points when they called fouls on Denver that didn’t happen. I was surprised that Malone didn’t challenge the bad calls.
Mikes been promoting the team play through contact and bad calls. We don’t need another suspension or blow up making us lose the series like years prior.
I like that Jokic didn't feed into that coaching question. Media stays trying to elevate players over their team and that stuff can easily affect chemistry.
He thinks in serbian, and it really doesnt translate well into English. The reporters are asking him technical questions, but like it's on there paper so he thinks it's pointless.
Yes, but also (and don't get this wrong), the reporter in question asked questions of higher quality on every single press conf he visited - more diverse and interesting questions. NBA reporters ask a lot of questions he get after every single game of regular season.
A level of class, professionalism and a mixture of casual/seriousness that you just don't see much these days. It's like he walked right out of the 70s.
Mother tongue brother,as a Serbian i can relate fully.We think in our language first and then translate in our mind in english.I speak english for a long time so i know all the phrases...etc..he is newer regarding that but who cares...he is the humble guy that shatters every team he plays against :)))
Love how he gave the longest answer possible to the Serbian media. I'm sure Serbia is proud of you and what you have accomplished in representation of them! :)
But they are from the same country lol he said before how great is Novak and what he’s doing for Serbia,he’s a superstar and he wants to be like him- so when Novak texted him that was huge for him !
All these other people in the NBA, if they played like Jokic, they would be selfish and arrogant and just stupid. He's a different type of player. Something I havent seen since the 90s. Hes humble and one of the best out there. Yea Jordan was probably the best but he's not humble and he's not a good person off court. That separates Jokic from Jordan. I'm loving seeing a player so humble and that doesn't care about the spotlight being on him or being the goat. It's damn nice to see this in todays world and with the state that our country is in.
But he and Jordan have high IQ and strong strong I mean strong desire to win. Even do maybe that doesn't see at first sight with Nikola. Only few players even have that level of hating losing like him.
Giannis, Steph, and Kawhi make up 3 of the last 4 Finals mvps and are about as smart and humble as it gets. I'm sure, you're trying to make a different point than you're letting on, but we'll just let your stupid stay on display.
You dont know that about jordan off the court. Quit making up stuff. But yeah jokic and jordan have different approach to greatness. Jordan is maniacal , driven and competitive. Jokic on the other hand, its his leadership,IQ, humility in the game.
@@julyvincentdelapiedra741 have you seen any videos and people who actually met Jordan, rappers, celebrities, normal people,etc??? You need to do some research, so many people of all colors, black, white, male, female, whatever, 99% of them have said after they met Jordan, they were just like wow, dude is a D bag. He's not a good person. And yeah, I know, I got no right to judge people but I've seen so many videos here on RUclips about people who met Jordan and thought he was there hero and left hating him. I forgot what that sang was, never meet your heros in real life cause they will disappoint you or something like that. Well that is MJ 😆😆. Do your own research you will see bro
That's the very interesting part. In order for them to be the Champs and maybe repeat, jokic needs to make sure his defense is cleaner so he doesn't get into foul trouble incredibly tough in playoffs where physucal intensity increases but seeing the increase in steals and blocks also led to foul trouble. Fortunately, this is a team game, but those 5 minutes in the 4th are definitely scary when jokic is out. Miami didn't quite capitalize but let's be real. This series could have been 2-2 going back home without those massive shots in the 4th
I really don't get how the media is not able to market the joker. May be we are weird here in italy but a player who has that attitude in front of the press(dismissing his stats and personal achievement while enjoying talking about how great his teammates are) and does it in a very authentic way, at least as far as i can see, here the media would have made him the people's hero. Ronaldo/Lebron will always get more attention but it's not like selflessness is not marketable, but maybe i am the crazy one
@@lucamastropietro543 i assume at least you have italian ancestors, so i'll give you a soccer example: when lukaku, during his first time at inter, left the penalty to the 17 yo fella from the youth academy the media sort of went ballistic on the fact that althogh he failed at the Man United in england a few seasons before, he still is a great team player who puts the rest of the team before buffing his stats, obviously he was also having a great season that year otherwise nobody would give a damn about selflesness. If that is a crazy way to market a player i am not actually the only crazy one, but it might simply be because we are more desperate as a league as compared to the nba so it might just be that the press takes whatever they can get a hold of before putting egos in the way.
@@lucamastropietro543 puo darsi, poi far paragoni tra calcio e sport americani non ha molto senso per le differenze culturali. ciò non toglie che la trovo un po assurda tutta sta roba di non riuscire a vendere il giocatore più dominante degli ultimi 3 anni, ma davvero magari sono strano io. Buona giornata
Because USA likes to market success, independency, boastness, ego etc. They want big bombastic superstars that have big egos and skill to back them up. And people in capitalist society want to dream big and be them. So when a humble man comes thay cares more about horses, they cant market it, just how you cant market capitalism to some farmer. Ifs not hard, its just that they dont want to market that
This guy is patiently teaching Americans (reporters and the public) that basketball stories aren’t told by stats. I hope he never loses his view of the game despite the barrage of garbage stats being thrown at him about his performances and the company (measured by useless statistics) he is among. Lesson for those of us conditioned by the media (to pay attention to stats.) This guy is a cold hearted killer, every time the other guys make a huge shot, he coolly calms the temperature down with his own dagger - for proof simply look at the timely 3s he makes and when he makes them.
No one can deny jokic is the best player in the league anymore. He proved it this season and during these playoffs. Giannis is not better the jokic, either is embiid. Jokic will have a ring to back it up as well.
Last comment..this man eats a piece of pizza before every game. An absolute God given talent. Mark yourself absolutely lucky for being able to be see and be apart of his NBA era.
This man is good 😊 and I’m glad I get the see this as history is being made. One thing I can say he does s humble he speaks team stays accountable and this helps the team focus it’s not about one person it’s all of us and this attitude I hope infect more players. Because people will perform better even when social media and all the reporters make it about him he never break because it’s a team sport. And his players feel that and he is a superstar and he the only one that don’t know it but what he do know he want his team to be champions.
@@brando4422 There are 30 letters in the Serbian language. Each letter is always written and read the same. Very simple. Try to learn, it's not difficult. Jokić normally speaks, as we say, "Lalinski" (this is difficult to translate). "Lalinski" is normally a slow speech with little stretching of words.
i find it so admirable that ANY question about his personal success is never answered by him. he HATES speaking about his personal success and stats and it’s speaks so much to his professionalism
Aaron Gordon, Bruce brown did their thing tonight I love to see it and I’m not even a nuggets fan I was rooting for them ever since they swept them sorry ass lakers. but all those guys deserve this championship, in the last series they had it seemed like they wants it MORE. Nuggs in 5 ,6

Yup and they need them to come out and play like that again in game 5 to seal the deal it’s a team game can’t depend on our start to both score 30 to win the team needs to play and also play defense
@@eddiemonstar3879 Jokic and Murray both shot worse than usual so I expect them to be better in game 5, and MPJ is finally mixing up his offense so we might finally see him go off.

Jokic the best player on the team couple with being senior to Jamal yet admit & submit to his leading on the court without hesitation in both words & deeds...you have to love him as the best!
In an era of selfish player first mentality, Nikola is a breath of fresh air. A true humble, class act, and the best damn player in the league right now.

He talks about djokovic here? Only halfway through but now very excited lol
@@ashtagbeatsthats about as excited as he gets not around his kids haha
Yes! What a humble man! I ☺️
Of course, friend is friend forever
Doesn't he just have 1 kid and it's a baby?

greatest on the planet yet so humble. common Jokic W.
Jokic does not realize that he is also a superstar as Novak ❤❤❤ Support from Slovenia for this Balkan warrior.🎉

I remember when he got the MVP trophy he said To be honest I dont care I want to win Championship. He about to go from Superstar to Hall of fame
He already in the hall of fame my guy
Imagine being the best player on the court and being this humble.
best player in the world*
Best baller on the planet. Full stop
Ultimate team player - how can one not love this guy if you love basketball!
Loved when he feels and looks excited when the Serbian reporter pops in and switches in Serbian. Language is beautiful
me too
The referees were horrible. They gave Miami undeserved points when they called fouls on Denver that didn’t happen. I was surprised that Malone didn’t challenge the bad calls.

they're trying to make it a more competitive series but even they can't save the Heat

This man is good 😊 and I’m glad I get the see this as history is being made. One thing I can say he does s humble he speaks team stays accountable and this helps the team focus it’s not about one person it’s all of us and this attitude I hope infect more players. Because people will perform better even when social media and all the reporters make it about him he never break because it’s a team sport. And his players feel that and he is a superstar and he the only one that don’t know it but what he do know he want his team to be champions.
Turns out he can speak super fast !! (In his lang 😂)
Lol 😂
We all speak fast in our mother tongue. For some of us English is the third language.
The Serbian language is much more beautiful, easier to write and read than English. Try to learn it, it's not difficult.
@@duskobabic4285 Easier to write how?
@@brando4422 There are 30 letters in the Serbian language. Each letter is always written and read the same. Very simple. Try to learn, it's not difficult.
Jokić normally speaks, as we say, "Lalinski" (this is difficult to translate). "Lalinski" is normally a slow speech with little stretching of words.
Truly a team win. Family on 3! 1,2,3 Family.
Pride of Serbia. Humble like all of our people.
This why he’s great he’s humble my team is Chicago didn’t make but this team definitely deserves to win 🏆
i find it so admirable that ANY question about his personal success is never answered by him. he HATES speaking about his personal success and stats and it’s speaks so much to his professionalism
Very humble and wise player!
Aaron Gordon, Bruce brown did their thing tonight I love to see it and I’m not even a nuggets fan I was rooting for them ever since they swept them sorry ass lakers. but all those guys deserve this championship, in the last series they had it seemed like they wants it MORE. Nuggs in 5 ,6
Nikola fan boying over Novak is so awesome. Shoot... I'm not even Serbian and I would have been doing the same 🐐
He is so humble
Great Jok just stay focused and get one W more and FMVP is yours..one of the greatest players in NBA history when its all said and done..good luck Joker
Nikola Jokic is Jimmy Butlers Father
So fake news around the internet that jimmy is jordans son? 😅
That's a weird comment. A stacked 1 seed vs a depleted 8 seed, it should be expected this would be the outcome.
@@J-Hue why are you making excuses for them?
😂😂😂
When they give the FMVP to Jokic, Perkins be like "they only gave it to him coz he's white"
Perkins has the IQ of a tadpole... he's nothing important.
Yeah Perkins is racist scum
Or cause he stat padded 😂😂 perk got carried to a championship so he can’t relate to joker they’re not the same
@@eddiemonstar3879 "I don't want to hear about them bus riders"
@@dimitrijetucovic1307 it’s pathetic tomorrow sports shows will be the Miami heat are down 3-1 and have a chance to do what only lebron and the cavs did winning it all after being down 3-1 😂
The Denver culture, play unselfishly. Every player do their job. Team built organically, all picks or traded picks. Not a free agent creation.
Whatever he fucking said was fire 🔥 ❤
0:37 That some serious Kobe mentality right now, words of a champion.
Your the man Nikola,,got out & kick ass the way u do & your team does & u will be a NBA Champion no doubt !! We Believe in U Brother,, keep your foot on their necks !! Next game u are an official Champion my Guy !! Jokir 4 MVP,,,thank God 4U & your team for all that u guy's do,,CHAMP !! We Americans do LOVE U & your game...Let's go get it big bro !!! WHAT
I get the sense that the only question worthy of a substantive response was the only one I couldn’t understand 😂
Lol It actually was.
Did I miss it or did no one ask him how his ankle was doing after turning it in the 1st quarter?
no one asked, but hey they ask same dumb questions they do after every game
This is a real champion 🙌 with real class with a real team 👏
Carbon copy of the GSW in their hey day.
AG was the difference!
Yup and they need them to come out and play like that again in game 5 to seal the deal it’s a team game can’t depend on our start to both score 30 to win the team needs to play and also play defense
@@eddiemonstar3879 Jokic and Murray both shot worse than usual so I expect them to be better in game 5, and MPJ is finally mixing up his offense so we might finally see him go off.
Tonight...
Only need 1 game from the “others”
X factor !! And Bruce Brown came up big
This series is over! Nikola is a class act and the Denver Nuggets are just too good!
3:21 "my journey .. i think it's not that interesting.." 😂😂😂
Koji kralj.
I've never seen this (extremely high) combination of humility and skill in the NBA. Jokic is a robot 🤖🤔
NICK????? Hey NICK????
Get me out of this interview. I hate talking about myself. I want to get some Sarma with my brothers and wife. I'm hungry. This guy is classic.
Only warm burek with cold coca cola 💁
Hahahaha
What a good dude. If they want more thorough answers, they should ask more about his teammates. I bet he'll go on and on about'm.
Jokic the best player on the team couple with being senior to Jamal yet admit & submit to his leading on the court without hesitation in both words & deeds...you have to love him as the best!
Yoke will become the face of the NBA. The King Bron handed him his crown
