"... if you don't like him, there's something wrong with you as a person ..." Charles Barkley
Mark Jackson
Blessed be Barkley.
Congratulations Charles Barkley ⭐️ Let’s go Nuggets and JOKER 🃏🃏🃏 so nice,full of kindness ,unique, charisma,brain and great father and husband
Hello from West Hollywood 🇺🇸🫶🫶🫶 love y’all
My stepson who’s is mixed is a big hater of jokic. I think it’s because he isn’t black 😂
@@davidramirez578
best have a talk with him
They’re building superteams to beat this man now 😅
Not gonna be enough tho
😂
How many balls is this new superteam gonna need? :)
@@saad1008 his new grind is playing for loaded teams now 😅😅😅
KD just building superteams regardless lol
The man who slowed the NBA down and then picked it apart. Unbelievable player.
Best basketball player in the world
From my Serbia😊.
and the best part is that by slowing it down he ended showing up how low is todays NBA level in terms of the basics
@@user-xu3bg7zh9c Today's NBA relies too much on athleticism, that's why players fundamentally sound like jokic or Luka just torch everyone.
yeb these boys aint got their fundamentals down
"One basket makes one people happy ,one assist makes two people happy" Commooonnn ,we haven't seen this kind demeanor in a years . Refreshing.
That quote is cute, but it's dumb af. That quote means if someone scores only he gets happy. Bro, if my teammate scores, then I am happy as well. Am I supposed to be happy only if I get an assist? Like wtf is this quote. Its so damaged overrated 😂
@@krp6680i mean that's your opinion, but it's different to score on your own, or pass it to someone and they score, because the feeling of contributing is larger in the latter, i think that's the point
@@krp6680 The happiness when you actually contribute and when you're just there can't compare.
Actually this is a quote from Toni Kukoc 20 year ago . Probably even Joker does not know that LoL
@@nebojsavelickovic5388 So you are only contributing if you provide a pass to someone. Scoring a 3-point bomb on someone's head is not contributing...? That just dont make sense man. All I am saying is giving assists are cool but it is NOT better than scoring yourself. Everything is equally important. heck even rebounding is crucial. I am a Kigns fan and I have seen some of the worst losses in our history due to horrendous rebounding
As a kid from Serbia T Mac was one of my favourite players, I will never forget the words "McGrady, for the win!" and seeing his highlights in NBA Live 2007 will never forget it! Anyways, to hear him talk about Jokic in this way makes my heart feel nice! incredible
Ya T Mac was so fun to watch play back in the day.
Damn I miss those highlights in menu and in extra... T-Mac, KG, Dirk, Carter, Nash, O'Neal, James, Bryant, Duncan, Iverson, Yao, Wade, Arenas... Pozz iz Hrvatske!
@@dinchy12 Such an iconic game, I remember all those highlights and players you mentioned! Poz!
@hmp01 agreed 100% my friend 👍
I’m not Serbian, but T-Mac was my favorite player as a kid, and jokic is my favorite now after moving to Denver a few years back. It’s a beautiful thing.
Jokic had 678 assists this seasons. That means at least 1300 indirect points for him and his team. If he was selfish he could score 40+ points each and every game. I used to play basketball in the team where he played as well as a junior. I know mentality of citizens of his home town. We call them LALA which means kind a lazy and slow person. But in action they act like tigers. Many famous basketball players came from his hometown like Korac, Rebraca etc. Trust me he is extremely happy and thrilled to be NBA champion but they won't show you publicly. He is one of a kind and he is eager to go back to his second home town of Denver to play again. He loves Denver, people there, his coach Malone, dear team mates.
Thanks for this post. Can you tell us more about his character from this cultural reference point? There seems to be this mask of indifference - the guy who face times his horses and doesn't care that much about basketball. Yet we also saw him roaring and screaming and making his team roar and scream too on every big play going down the stretch to close out the Lakers and get his revenge. Those of us who have followed him have learned about words like 'inat.' How would you describe that mask of indifference? Is that just him? is it a Serbian thing?
@@samantharay6098one of a kind character. Look like lazy lala but very efficiant in every move.
Very interesting 🧐. He does seem like one of those guys who is lazy until he has to act and then he Tiger 🐅😂. Nobody will ever accuse Jokic of being lazy on the court and that's all that matters. He is special athlete with rock solid mindset and great family foundation. God bless em 🙏
@@samantharay6098 He is one of a kind. He really is. Even though we Serbs would love to say that we are like him, we aren't. He is the best ever, he is a gift of God himself. We as a nation suffer injustice, so that automatically means that he goes through injustice too (not winning ROTY, not winning MIP, not winning the 3rd-in-a-row MVP). But, he really is a special specimen. There is no other. He passes both the stasticial and the eye test. I write down his stats after every game. Next year he is going to break top 50 at pts, ast and reb (in playoffs), and atleast top 200 in those three categories (in reg season); i hope that Denver builds a dynasty around him, he can finish his career with 4-5 rings, and with 5-6 mvps (if the injustice doesn't reappear). add some FMVPs, top 10 in all metrics; and he is there - then he is on GOAT level! Thank you for acknowledging Nikola's indifference. We love you people, from Serbia ❤
@@oli1521 He made me start watching basketball again after a long time not caring anymore. Modern play became boring. If the league had half a brain, they would recognize the return of Magic and Larry style basketball, true basketball, when they saw it. I think Jokic's genius might singlehandedly breathe life back into the game almost despite the league and its media.
Oh, and I would not worry much about MVPs and 'injustices.' It is supposed to happen this way and only makes things better.
The alltimers were always treated this way.
Who is more august now, for instance?
Kareem, MJ, Lebron? [Denied MVP 3peats]
Or Russell, Wilt, Bird? [Given MVP 3peats]
For most, the 3 I named without MVP 3peats are considered 1 2 and 3 in most people's top 5. Voters like to spread them around.
For example, in 1993 they gave it to Barkley over MJ, denying him the 3peat he would have had. Then MJ dominates the postseason, including Barkley in an all-time duel, and left no doubt who was the best.
Then there was Hakeem, not a 3peat case, but when they gave Duncan Robinson an MVP over him, and then he did what he did to Robinson and everyone else in the postseason, it only added to his aura to "lose" a voter's award.
This year we saw a story from Bleacher Report outlining, from inside sources, how little Jokic cared about this year's MVP. I don't believe that part was a mask at all and I do not think the NBA media gave the MVP to Embiid so much as Jokic HIMSELF gave it to Embiid, just gave it away at the end. Let his minutes and stats drop when he easily could have "padded" to a 25 point tripple double which would have forced the voters to vote for him, because how can you not then? From what we saw of the postseason, as every postseason before, he could have padded" to a 30 point triple double if he wanted to. No, he just cares about winning when it matters most.
And that is what he told us and, more importantly, told his team and organization when he gave up the MVP to get a bit more edge in the postseason. Not just him talking like he's selfless, he really is. More Duncanlike than even Duncan.
Who even loses an FMVP????
Trust me, it is the right thing that he didn't get the MVP this year, not because he didn't deserve it - he did. But because he joined an even more elite cub than MVPs, now he is with the MJs and Hakeems whose greatness was so great that "losing" MVPs only made them look better in the long run.
Da real MVPs, the people's MVPs, and ultimately the undeniable winners. Just look at the paroxysms of the media. They did not respect his MVPs, but he forced them to respect his ring. Only now can they admit that he is the best in the league, many wouldn't even put him in their top 5 after 2 MVPs. This MVP-less season was worth 5 of the previous MVPs in those terms.
I don't really care how many more MVPs he gets, he is so demonstrably above the voters' whims at this point their recognition has ceased to matter.
I will guess at least 4 or 5 more rings & FMVPs - or maybe he will give an FMVP to Murray. It hardly matters. We might be watching the goat.
Big up to Kobe, he was one of the first ones to actually recognize Jokic' talent and see future star in him long before anyone did.
The fact that Kobe talked about Jokic 2 years before he even got into playoffs, and then challenged him to win MVP (Which he did twice, arguably 3 times in a row for many, if not most basketball fans.) boogles my mind.
Shame Kobe isn't here to see how right he actually was about Nikola. Bet he'd be proud to challenge the right one to do it. Kobe had that mamba instinct when it came to talent.
He saw the dawg in him before many did.
Some players have it, some don’t.
@@steviechampagne 💯. Imagine if Jordan would be as great talent seeker as Kobe.
Charlotte would be stacked as hell.
don't think I ever saw T-Mac speak so high about anybody
This might sound weird but the most significant moment of the season for me was in the finals when Shaq first saw the Joker play and was in awe and gave Joker props.
@@tropickmanFirst player ever to put up 30/20/10 in the playoffs.
And he did it TWICE.
He’s changed the game and a lot of people just aren’t ready for it
Tmac one is my favourite, he really gave Jokic his flowers
Simply said, teamwork is more important and he made the team efficient.
he's not just good at passing, scoring and running a team. he's as good as I've ever seen at all of that. I can't praise him enough
He doesn’t play good defense at all..Giannis is much better
You are wrong.
@@njolson how?What’s does Joker have that Giannis doesn’t have? Giannis has a defense reward some the joker don’t have
@@bigdawg4883 I like Giannis too but Jokic is on another level. it may be his own level when it's all said and done. Giannis isn't that
@@kenwell3498Giannis melted down in that Heat series these past playoffs. Giannis was terrified of going to the foul line down late in those games. Joker doesn’t have an offensive weakness. Giannis isn’t the shooter Jokic is. Jokers the better player. Not that Giannis isn’t great or a future HOF’er himself. Jokers just a little better.
Friendly Reminder:
This guy was rewarded All NBA 2nd team and was MVP runner up
Yup, laughable
yea what a joke
Embiid had to beg Perkins for mvp and racist Perk was paid off to put on racist remarks for Jokic to lose mvp
Jokic 29 triple doubles this season
Embiid 1 triple double this season
Wilbon fucked up. Still love him, but shit vote.
Man I’m so happy my city got a mf ring man. Been waiting since melo
We’re not satisfied either
Shiiiit, fuck Melo… Never really cared for him… The 5’5’ Big fella Earl Boykins was my favorite Nugget player at the beginning of the Melo era!! It was long overdue that D town finally gets ring from the Nuggets!! Just need Rockies to now!!
Since Melo?! Try since pre Mutombo era with Chris Jackson aka Mahmoud Abdul Rauf circa 1990. This is a long time coming for Nuggets fans that go back to the 80's.
I'm saying I watched since English Issel Lever but then there are guys out there that remember Haywood this chip is for all of us Nuggets lifers
We had a parade in our city 🎉💪🏻
it's crazy how much you can feel the joy listening to these guys talk about Jokic. they're so excited to talk about him
Yeah, because it is only now that they talk about him.
I wish jokic will keep humble, keep working hard and keep winning so that after a few chips we can talk about him in that top 10 conversation easy
I don't think you have to worry about him remaining the same. He is very simple/traditional... and that is not an insult. Winning a chip or 10... ain't changing him. He can win nothing and still be happy.. because he has his family. That's the point of his story. Basketball is a passion of his, but not the only. Same as horses but they may be above basketball if I am honest... but what comes above both of these things and always will.. family. That's the Jokic message.
Also, I think Malone deserves some credit here... he understood Jokic... notice all the family chants and the culture vibes etc? No man fights harder than when he fights for his own kin/blood... Malone understood this from Jokic and untapped it.
Yep, I don't worry about Jokic one bit either. I'd say that his teammates are the ones that need to step it up. Not saying that they aren't good, just saying that they all need no be on their best so that Denver can win it again.
He is in the top ten talk already to be fair.
He was the teal MVP. Embid is great and scores high, but Jokic elevates the whole team with everything he does. That makes him the most valuable!
winning also helps
What they all forget when they talk about him and his championship , he won it with DENVER. it's not lakers it's not golden state nor Boston etc... It's Denver. That makes him even more special.
Not sure what you mean about that...
@@arturobugarin3125 it means that championship was built, small market team, 2nd round draft superstar, who wouldve thought
@@arturobugarin3125his teammates aren’t all star
@@depdep1927 I get that Captain Obvious. But several are All-Star caliber.
Basketball legends call him special. Casuals call him boring.
👏
My two favorite takes are: LeBron with that "but i do" because the whole NBA circus has ever underestimate LBJ mental game.... And T-Mac saying "I'd love to play with him" as the first thing to say... And as a player that was my first thought too... When you know basketball and you watch Denver playing you can't avoid thinking: i want to play there.
This man could go down above Elway in Denver sports legends
Fans of other games talk about his attitude and basketball knowledge with such respect. Love the world's acknowledgment of the total Jokic package. What a man to wow about.
T-Mac hit the nail on the head.
For anyone that says he couldn't play the same in the past needs to see what those that dominated in the past think about him.
NIKOLA JOKIC has changed the BIG MAN'S GAME with his UNIQUE SKILLSET. He is a SUPERB FASCILITATOR/ASSIST MAN, an ACCURATE PERIMETER SHOOTER (his PASSING and SHOOTING reminds me of LARRY BIRD), makes his TEAMMATES play better, and has an INCREDIBLE ALL AROUND GAME with HIGH BASKETBALL IQ. DENVER'S CORE TEAM is Talented, Skilled, Athletic, Young, Big, Solid, and will still get better. They have a reliable 2nd UNIT/BENCH, is an EXCEPTIONAL DEFENSIVE TEAM, and have an EXCELLENT COACH in MICHAEL MALONE. With JOKIC spearheading NUGGETS ATTACK, and his BRILLIANT 2-MAN GAME with JAMAL MURRAY clicking, they are capable of being a DOMINANT TEAM and will repeat as NBA CHAMPIONS in SEASON 2023-2024 🏆🏆
Jokic has that dad bod strength. You might not see the muscle definition but he is strong AF.
He is one and only, greetings from our hometown Sombor, Serbia,
Realizing that its more important to show respect to you opponent immediately instead of celebrating a NBA championship is beautiful.
What Zeke is trying to emphasize about Joker's game is what a lot of people are missing.... The IQ he plays with makes his impact on the court so great.
How Reg gonna put David Robinson over Joker when he wasn't the best player on any of his chips, though😂 love the Admiral but Joker's definitely either caught up or passed him.
When his horse won a race officials gave him the winner’s trophy he gave it to his driver. He’s the most humble athlete I’ve seen in my life
He reminds me of Larry Bird, Wilt Chamberlain, and Magic Johnson with the way he passes first shoots second and gets all his team mates always involved. He reminds me of the players from the old school in the way he has his mind in the game like a chess champion and he is several moves ahead. And he is humble. I liked his sportsmanship at the end of game 5 when he was hugging the players on the Miami Heat team.
There is no resembelence with Jokic and Chamberlain.
Born in Madelia, Minnesota on October 25, 1946 Bird was bred to be a jockey. He was raised on a farm and had horses all around him while he was growing up
"The Joker is now a member of the Big Man Alliance" - Shaq 2023
I didn't pay much attention to playoffs last few years. But this year, with Joker, wow...interesting to watch
Jokic and Luka , thats real fundamentals of basketball ,! i prefer that kind of game over gun and run …Would like to c them playing together!
Next is world cup gold !!! Idemooo 🇷🇸
Tracy Mcgrady respect from Serbia 🫡
Reggie Miller saying "It's only one championship!" 😂 How many you got, Reg? How about Stockton, Ewing, Malone, Barkley...
Reggie miller is lucky to be in the hall of fame
@@anthonysalazar8279 False.
Jokic is already and by far better than David Robinson. Not even close.
David Robinson got carried those two championships
I get you, but I´d say I am with Reggie. To be considered all timer, like cream of the crop, a player of his caliber should be able to squeeze out one or two more ships - And I think they are here to stay. They did very well without two main guys. Contract situation looks good too. Let´s just enjoy the Jokic show. To me, it is fascinating to watch someone so extraordinarily good at what they do. Like his focus and chill vibe
Always working hard, never bragging and always on top of his game. Yep, that's FreeDawkins.
Serbia, and former Yugoslavia is full of sport talents. Now we are apart but from time to time we can launch some new Jokic, Doncic, Djokovic, Divac, Stojakovic, Tesla, Pupin...
Yugoslavia is ridiculous in football/soccer too. I can only imagine this Croatian generation, which got to a 2nd and 3rd spot in WCs, with extra talents from Serbia, Slovenia...
In terms of basketball, Jokic and Doncic alone could probably take Yugoslavia to a gold medal with good coaching (especially considering team USA no longer takes the best NBA players).
@@calamorta Yugoslavia are great team but I'm afraid they will kill each other in dressing room. 😅
Hrvatska hvala vam za vas fudbal ovih zadnjih godin
Jokic and the Nuggets are so damn good ! Jokic has been underestimated so long despite 2x MVP and he showed why hes the best again
If reggie miller had jokic, he would be the greatest shooter ever
If Steph had Jokic passing to him out of the post and perimeter, I can't even imagine.
Lebron likes joker so much that he made sure to pick him last at the all star game.. just another way they tried to exclude him from the club and minimize his accomplishments
Ledouche
@@ESL-O.G.In which language ledouche means shower man😂😂😂
LeRacist
yeah Jokic got the last word
and The NBA Championship AND THE MVP of the finals
That was BEFORE Jokic swept him & the Lakers. Now he knows Jokic is god-tier
He will influence young guys on his team with the way he puts his family first. He knows where his priorities are.
And Jokic isn't posing for his 1st rap video, he wants to win the title then go right home to his wife, child and horses.
What NBA star posing for 1st rap video😂
He did make a pitstop to las vegas...
King
Jokic is SO fundamental with his play that he sees and executes on every little advantage which the defense gives him as he PATIENTLY PRESSURES THE DEFENSE to get the defense to react to what he is doing in the moment. Their reaction opens something up. Defense cannot take away everything so he literally takes whatever is given as he goes through his paces, and he has the mechanical skill to execute on the options as they appear.
The essential skill he has is to ALWAYS be facing the basket vision-wise even when he is not apparently looking at the basket. This way he sees everything but also has the fundamental skills of passing, dribbling, and shooting at 7'1" to take advantage of whatever materializes as he forces the situation to develop, PATIENTLY.
And not to mention the The league f'ed up building "small ball" teams. Jokic is gonna punish anyone but when u got a smaller team with weak center, you don't stand a chance
Jokic is the best player in the world and a top 5 center of all time. A true artist within the game of basketball, painting his legacy onto the canvas of the NBA. I love to watch him, and can’t wait to see him continue to play and win. If he gets at least one (hopefully more) more chips, he could easily be top 10 of all time.
McGrady .."I ❤ him"..that says enough🙏🇷🇸👏❣️
The fact that Jokic can’t jump actually bodes well for his longevity and ability to stay healthy through the playoffs.
No one sees the court like Jokic but his bounce passing and over the top passing is amazing. Imagine MJ being a teammate w Scottie omg!
Nice video and some nice points from the players, however I disagree with Reggie. Nikola already got David Robinson's number for me. Admiral won 2 titles as a bus rider, and in the 2nd one he was a shell of himself. He was a great defender, but imho Joker's offense outweights Admiral's defense, plus postseason play margin is significant.
Beside Joker's on-court brilliance, what I really like...
Is that he suits up and looks very professional to and from the game. Like the David Stern days when players had to wear suits. I love that!
It's ironic how HOF NBA players can appreciate how Jokic plays, but the sports media and non-factor NBA players like Perkins and Stephen Jackson remain clueless
KG cracks me up frfr 😂😂😂😂
Joker Aint asking No one hes Earning everything he gets! Cant Stop him. he is Dominating the Leauge. So whatever u think of him dont matter. His Play is doing all the talking. But so dam funny how Theres so many haters. Hes like the True rolemodel and a pure soul! But yall want Ja Morant as the face of the NBA. 😂 So funny
I think Kevin has it about right when he says look at the picture, when your best player is in the third row. That's The Joker, zero ego, and happy when he is making others look good
Yes he is a different breed!!!!!He can drible he can shoot outside and free trow can pass he can do everything what else he is a Genius in Basketball.he is the different player as a Center and YES HE IS CHANGING THE PPLAYER AS A CENTER POSITION
love listening to good players talking about other good players and he is as good as there right now
The guy in the video who compared Joker with Sabonis knows what he's talking about, prime Sabonis is prime Joker, both outlandish players
The best is yet to come 🤩 Goakic 🔥🙌🏻
History in the making unfolding before our eyes 🤍
I love NBA ❤
Do you by any chance know who that guy at the end is with the ChampionsChampionsChampions sweater? I love his take the most? Is it KG
To see them play together bring tears to my eyes. I love to watch every game. One of the plays I like is when Nikola passes the ball to Aaron under the rim to dunk with a defender trying to smack to ball away. When Aaron dunks the ball: Nikola, Aaron, and Michael yelled out at the same time.
Epic
All these NBA Stars Praise him but the Media was All wrong!!!!😢
this guy is the New Face of the NBA
Imagine his daughter watching this video in the years to come ❤
"Yeah but he only has one MVP" "Yeah but he's gotta win a chip" "Yeah but he only has 1 chip" These people will never, ever ever ever be satisfied! God bless them!
And playing basketball is like 4th on his list of favorite things. Jokic said he’d be just as happy as a horse trainer. He’s just built different.
most skilled big ever
Jokic loves to play games… loves his family and horses more. The difference between him and lebron is jokic has a job to do. Lebron thinks he’s a legend. Jokic brings his teams up. Lebron builds his teams and titles. There are natural leaders and there are wanna be leaders. Keep it real Jokic.
« He is one of one » KG speaks words of Truth
He Def earned my respect
The player bias is so obvious. Pre-Finals/MVPs basically only post players and passing point guards were the ones who thought Joker was genuinely a great player. The shooting guards and the two-way players only give him props after the team's success. He was always this good. Even now they struggle to explain why he is so good while Hakeem already knows that Jokic had the best footwork in the league 2 years ago.
People think he's 7'1" because he plays like it but in reality he's only 6'11". People also think he's 284lbs because he is listed as such and plays bully ball like it, but he is actually only about 260. No way you can have the endurance he's got at 284. He lost about 25lbs at the start of the bubble season and has remained trim since. He's basically the same size as Anthony Davis (6' 10" 253) and you can't see any size difference when the two of them stand next together.
That is AbSerb!
Where could you have posSerbly heard that from?
who asked?
@@RKWDBMXi asked
Tmac and Charles Barkley the realest ones!
I think billups observation about jokuc being arbydas in his prime is pretty refreshing
Larry Bird + Tim Duncan = Nikola Jokic
I would like to thank NBA players for this recognition!!!..…Pozdrav iz Srbijeeee!!!!
Like the kings commentator once said, if you don't like that, you don't like nba basketball. Similarly, if you don't like Jokic, you don't like the game of basketball.
LBJ’s compliments always sound like they include a compliment to himself
Facts😂 "he plays the way I like to play" is so cap
He's gifted.
If you make shaq praise you, ur a real great player.
My heart is breaking from all these beautiful words THE JOKER IS SIMPLY THE BEST 👋👋👋👋👋👋
In 5 years The NBA will be enjoyable to watch🎉. There will be in every team three 7'7 players who can do everything🎉🎉🎉
Excellent documentary.
I think its about time Kendrick Perkins and Nick Wrong starts considering carier change.
KD was praising Joker since 2018 if I am not wrong
Nikola Jokic number one
It is his time as a leader and The Denver Nuggets time as a team but I will also give a Shout out to their Head Coach and Assistant Coaches also.
There is no one like that in the League
Jokic and Murray might be the superstars the NBA needs right now. They aren't the divas who are in the middle of retiring currently, they juat love playing and want to get better.
Nikola Jokic 🇷🇸❤️❤️❤️
Give me Dragic, Nurkic, Jokic, Doncic and Bogdanovic. The IQ is there, the 3p is there, the clutch is there, the winning mentality is there, the size is there. Ooh i would love a balkan team.
The video was so great! But what was the song that up played in the background? :)
“I think the best is yet to come”
Weird, it’s almost like perk, skip bayless, and Nick “wright” only value muscular athletic men like Embiid over an intelligent and skilled champion like Jokic. I’m not one to jump to conclusions so I won’t here.
Good content. I strongly suggest upgrading your mic and recording kit.
That is pure Serbian street basketball.
He only applied love for this game and without what the general mainstream of professional basketball means. He just plays THE GAME without a shred of egotism which is characteristic of 99.99% of good players.
Most of the guys are losing themselves by playing in front of the public for public, looking cool and looking good, and feeding their own egos. This guy plays for the game and to win, and can not care less if he looks good, strong as an animal, fast or handsome...
You would be ridiculed on the street basketball in Serbia for all that egoism and show-off. The goal is to win, the focus is to score and not to be a loser.
Pa gledaj u pravu jesi donekle, al to je samo jedna u nizu sitnica, i daleko od toga da je to kljucna i najbitnija stvar, i da u basketu 3 na 3 niko ne bi mogao da mu prismrdi, covek je prosto sa druge planete.

Repeat Champs 🏆 next year 🏆
King of Denver. And an even better person.
People say he can't jump, and that's true. But he can do everything else like a master
So this is why he don't need to jump 😅. Just image if he could jump as well
It seems to be extraordinary to be humble in USA, he's so humble, he's so humble, ... :D
Joker is another level of a player HE GOT A GIFTED TALENT FROM THE LORD ABOVE !!!!
Billups is half right. I have seen Sabonis in his prime. If had not injured and came to the US he would be the GOAT. 7-3, 250 pounds, 35 inch vertical, he could shoot the three, pass like Jokic, run the floor, dunk, play elite defense. The world has not seen a better basketball player than Sabonis from 82 to 87 since he tore his achilees (three times in two years...). Look his highlights.
Sabonis was good but he wasn’t half the player Jokic is. Jokic runs an entire offense. Not even being funny but Hakeem used to destroy Sabonis.
@@tjay6469 thats because he was playing a sabonis in his 30s who had blown out his knees.
