He's known more for his ridiculous passing ability, but he's a complete post scorer/shooter too. Just look at this sequence: 5:55 - Bird; 6:15 - Dirk; 6:30 - Duncan; 6:45 - Kareem. And he has a lot more moves than that - dude really has all the moves. Also, he can hit floaters and 3s better than most guards in the league and rebound as well as anyone else. Not to mention his defense has improved vastly and, even though he'll never be a shot blocker, he has high IQ on D too and and the fastest hands of all big men.
Hes absolutely atrocious on defense wtf r u talking about? Jokic and doncic two fat fuka who cant play defense and are overrated as fuk by euro fanboys
Just a personal opinion, i think that hes over rated. He has already had ankle injuries, and he has a lot of extra weight for an nba player... He's skilled but i wouldnt be surprised if he has a rapid decline. Best of luck to him and his fans
I am a big Giannis fan but gotta admit joker is probably the most talented player in the league today. His game is effortless, freeflowing, creative, sharp, high basketball IQ, well-rounded....he shoots, rebounds, assists, defends....what can you ask for more? this guy will win MVP very soon. His game is truly entertaining and I hope Denver makes to nba final next year. I see better chance of denver going to the final than bucks unless bucks make some major improvement in their game.
@Marko R The most athletic and the less athletic big man (PF/C) in the league. Also the two best passing big man (6apg and 7apg) together. He would be lit
Sooo I'm a little biast cause i love the nugs, but isn't Jokic so much fun to watch? I watch every game on league pass thru the year and I've never enjoyed watching a player like i do Jokic. Just a brilliant brilliant smart player
He isn’t even as aggressive as he could be yet, he’s still just a kid. He’s probably the best center in the league in my opinion, I don’t think I’ve ever seen someone as skilled as him with a body like his. He’s a championship component for sure, they just need a long athletic star wing player because they’ve got all the guards they need to make a finals run. Jokic is going to give us just some STUPID looking stats, the guy is amazing.
Bob Mannion ehh I’m not sure. I hope he will be for the Nuggets and his sake, but I don’t think he’ll be able to reach his full potential with his injury. His foot is messed up now from his back.
Its crazy a center is the best passer in the NBA he passing like magic maravich divac sabonis all the oldschool Player jokic is a true oldschool baller i like that
Man he is good! his body movement makes him unpredictable, great! footwork, and that lock and loaded 3point shot click clack allot of treat in couple of years MVP for sure.
Top center in the league. Nugs haven't made the playoffs in 6 years and go one game from WC finals. Their youth showed in game 7 but Joker pulled them there even though Murray won a couple games Joker was the glue in every win. D does need improvement but he works so hard on O its incredible he can do anything against banging centers in the playoffs. People say he isn't athletic but take any other 7 footer running upwards of 285 and try the stuff he is doing - then you will see unathletic
He is too flashy for Duncan. Joker is still good. You never know what he is gonna do. He can do anything next position. Spot up. Post up, point forward. A Wildcard.
That spin move of his is utterly lethal and tailor-made to take advantage of his opponent's aggressiveness. A couple more years in the league and that's going to become a signature move that others will emulate.
Nije još uvek. Peđa Stojaković je postigao više u NBA, a u istoriji naše košarke ima igrača kao Dejan Bodiroga. Jokić nije blizu, još uvek. Sa reprezentacijom treba osvojiti titule i postati šampion u NBA. Peđa Stojaković to sve ima, Jokić još uvek nema.

I have him over Embiid just for health reasons. But damn the offensive output between both of them is insanse. Jokic is special. I know AD doesn’t like playing Center so Embiid and Jokic are my top 2 and Gobert at 3
People should really go back and look at how Jokic played in the 2019 playoffs than compare his games and also his stats to Joel Embiid. There was a massive difference that's all I'm gonna say.
lets start calling him by his best nickname "Big Bird" cause he is exactly a larger version of Larry Bird the way he plays. Besides Joker is already taken by the current #1 tennis player.
His teammates didnt show up too bad for him...Denver need another scorer because Murray aint there yet. This supporting crew of Jokic cant score shit during playoffs. The best would be landing Kawhi ir Klay in fa
Wyatt Hunter I disagree heavily, I think that the Nuggets are 2 years out from having a playoff dynasty of young players who have triumphed and failed together. When the nuggets do pass, the assist chemistry they have is on par with warriors. I believe when Porter Jr is playing next year they will be #1 seed and make it to the finals, without needing an expensive addition.
We also need to sign someone to play at Millsap's position, like Randle. Murray...he may be bad at game 7, but in the whole playoffs, he's getting better, give him time
@@_TranNguyenQuocKhang well next season Nuggets front office projected Vanderbilt to be PF from the bench and he will change Lyles, Čančar from Spain league will come (he is sharp shooter at 3 spot) and he will change Lydon. We will have only 1 spot in the team to change IT. MPJ is projected to be starter in the future and yes they need for next season one more shooter but that's only because they made great result to early. My opinion is to be patient and develop in house, finish what you started.

I am a big Giannis fan but I think Giannis did not live up to the expectation in the playoff. I dont think he even deserves #5 on that list. Joker should be at #2 or #3. He truly carried denver through the playoff.
so triggered when they say 'euro' step - you know what we call the american step - travelling, park walk, cat-walk, modeling and last but not least - explanations coming (;
There are few great white players from America since Larry Bird. America basketball community over emphasis athletic ability of player, which lead young, fast, agile and strong black players overtake the field. It’s clear that basketball is more than run fast and jump high.
Žmogus Hibridas What are you talking about? Skill? Are you serious? Sabonis can only dream about Joker’s skills, even half of Joker’s skill set. Sabonis was only stronger, nothing else.
Žmogus Hibridas No, it seems that uou dont. Sabonis was great for his time, but he wasnt even top center, not to mention better then MJ. Hahahahaha you made me laugh hard with that one.
Hes already overrated as fuk Defense is 50 percent of the game and hell always be fukn AWFUL at it I guaruntee the nuggets never even come close to winni g a championship Even the kings will surpass them as jokic has zero chance at ever keeping up with a guy like bagley.

Oscar Robertson 1962-1963
Nikola Jokic 2018-2019
That's it that's the list.

The Bigger (Larger and more polished offensively then Timmy) Fundamental

Larry and Dirk in one body

*Already a legend.* Like cool hand Luka. He is a basketball genius. Like cool hand Luka. I see a pattern here.
Guy's smart. Knows how to fake and when to shoot. Also like how he creates space then takes the shot.
The Fat and the Furious.
Bet Coach Pop would've loved to have picked up Jokic and make him look like a brilliant coach the way Tim Duncan did.
I have wet dreams about jokic playing for pop
