Watching Jokic play prompted a thought, I reckon anybody playing in the NBA but who are not Nuggets players must feel like Sysiphus when trying to stop that 7ft boulder rolling down the court to their basket. He is just inexorable. He is every bit as dominant in the paint as Shaq ever was, not as flashy and explosive but every bit as dominant. Then comes the but, Shaq had nothing once he was two strides from the basket, whereas Jokic can kill you in every way imaginable up to 30ft out from the basket. Shaq could never do not even in his dreams.

damn, this guy is the real deal
Defending Jokic: Like wrestling a grizzly bear with the footwork & moves of a gymnast, the hands & eyes of a surgeon.
AFTER MIKE ,SHAQ ,KOBE ,LARY ,NIKOLA IS ONLY OTHER DOMINANT WIZARD. Not in highlights but in actual hole games from start to finish!
but he is multi-positions, its different
Put some respect for this mofo
