People who say that the kid isn't athletic enough, don't understand that,because of that,he is the most intelligent player in the game! What he does, you can't learn or become by pumping irons! He's not fast or strong,but he uses his brain to move the ball and ball is faster then a man!
It doesnt matter in regards to athleticism. He is using what hes got at very high level. There are more athletic centers that come nowhere near his bball iq and overall skill set. Hes pretty damn good and Id love to have him on the Pacers.
AD, Giannis, Simmons, KAT, Lonzo (he's actually amazing), Fultz (potential through the roof. AMAZING handle, scores with ease), Mitchell, Tatum, Brown, Kuzma, Dennis Smith Jr., Ingram, Embiid, not to mention Cousins, Kyrie, Kawhi, and the likes of Ayton, Bamba, Porter Jr., Sexton, ETC ETC ETC ETC ETC ETC. .....
Yeah I'd put Jokic ahead of most of those guys now and hes only 23 so he still has a lot to improve. His playmaking and IQ gives him a higher ceiling than most of the big men on the list. If you think Lonzos amazing, you should also think this guy is amazing, they have similar qualities
Also, a shot has shown to be something that can be improved drastically. Kawhi, Kidd, Wall, Giannis, Brook Lopez, Tony Parker, Frye, etc. etc... Imagine Julius Randle with a consistent jumper. He's already unguardable. Too big for 1-3 and too quick for 4-5. Randle's got more potential than Jokic as well.
Earl Monroe stop talking you are speaking so many hypotheticals and mentioning so many players that have yet to prove themselves, when Jokic has already proved himself and has potential to grow even further. So many irrelevant players on your list that I can’t even take you seriously
By advanced metrics Jokic is already a top 15 player in the league and hes only 23. Obviously the national media doesn't view him that way but its the truth
This guy is a truly great player. I would love to see him in a Pacers uniform. You guys in Denver are blessed to have such a skilled, all around player like him.
I believe Demarcus Cousins is more skilled than Jokic. Jokic is a slightly better passer, is better at catch & shoot. That's it. Scoring wise it's not close imo. Boogie is way better at creating for himself and since he can handle the ball pretty well and has an elite court vision for a big men I'd say he is more skilled than every big men in this league.
Ivi Den I wouldn't mind, love my Russian brothers and sisters, but it's Star Spangled banner for me, via Belgrade, Serbia! Love my New York City for accepting me,as if I was born here!
Vs certain teams he can’t be guarded. Shame Millsap missed so many games. They could have made the playoffs. Next year should be interesting with MPJ in the mix. If MPJ actually recovers. That front court is going to be vicious Jokic, Millsap, and MPJ.
@@dejanjuhanovski9504 you're smoking big crack all clint was a lob threat on the rockets and a good defender at that time jokic was still balling he just wasn't at his peak
damn this guy jokic is on fireeeee if i was him and his side in the nba i be dropping body like no tommorow lolll. supprising he not dunking over man dem, man need to be more aggressive. playing sofe like that aint getting no max deal bUdy... just need to be aggressive and show the team that he deserve a MAX DEALL RIGHT PEOPLE? 25.47mill well deserve that payroll. nowaday men them getting pay like that they get sluppy after year two.lol
SoosUnknown pound for pound, Jokic is hands down the most skilled offensive player in the league..jokic can literally do everything that impacts an nba offense, something that players like lebron, KD, or curry have limitations in their game
Cousins averaged 25 ppg, 13 rpg, 5 apg & 1.6 bpg & spg. He's dropped 44/24 & 10, 41 & 23, 40/22 & 4blocks, 41/17 & 5blocks, 46 & 15, 32/20/8/5blocks & 2steals, 55 & 13, ETC ETC ETC. Get real! He's, by far, the best center in the league.
Veljko Mijailovic No.. Jokic averaged .7 more assists than Cousins... as Cousins' an amazing passer. All while Cousins *dominates* in any and every other category. Cousins makes his team better. As well as his teammates. He knows when to take over and can do so in any fashion. Though he is a #1 go to player, he also knows when to toss the lob to AD, kick it out to the corner for Moore, hit the cutting Rondo/Holiday, etc. He was also New Orleans best scorer. Ahead of AD. As amazing as AD is and as much a he is a #1 option, Cousins was their most skilled big. Jokic is not Denvers best scoring option. It's Murray and Harris. Cousins is, by far, the most skilled center in the league. He's the most skilled big in the league, the biggest bully in the league and the most valuable center in the league. He's basically an extremely skilled Shaq.
Bro why are you such a hater? Why can’t you just enjoy these highlights of a great talent in the league instead of just trying to discredit everything he does? You are the definition of a classless basketball fan
They have Paul Millsap at the 4 and I'm pretty sure Deandre Jordan wants alot of money. The Nuggets main priority is to sign Harris, Jokic, and Murray for the next 5-6 years and find a SF.

You were years ahead of everyone my friend
No any dunk in almost 10 min highlights pure skill big fella!
Antonio Chung skill by skill, no one can really touch Jokic..not even Lebron or KD
@@LeBaby-t3mbro straight saw the future. Mfer know ball 😂
His shot reminds me of Larry Birds jumper
seriustraco aren’t they about the same height too?
If you watched this guy, you'd know he has top 8 player in the NBA potential down the line
AD, Giannis, Simmons, KAT, Lonzo (he's actually amazing), Fultz (potential through the roof. AMAZING handle, scores with ease), Mitchell, Tatum, Brown, Kuzma, Dennis Smith Jr., Ingram, Embiid, not to mention Cousins, Kyrie, Kawhi, and the likes of Ayton, Bamba, Porter Jr., Sexton, ETC ETC ETC ETC ETC ETC. .....

I hate to compare players like this, but Jokic is the perfect answer to people who say Larry Bird couldn't play in today's game.
fundamental plays.
I smell the big fundamental (duncan) aura in him
His ball control and basketball IQ is awesome.
Jokic can average a triple double if he put his mind to it he's that good.
done.
MVP
flirting top 5 all time as of now
W take 😂. Bro gonna finish top 10 all time
This was the season that I saw his true potential, so glad he's having the season of his life Rn😄
I saw it his rookie year lol

Best center in the league

This guy is a truly great player. I would love to see him in a Pacers uniform. You guys in Denver are blessed to have such a skilled, all around player like him.
He’s a Sabonis/Larry bird hybrid.. this guy is already the best passing big ever he sees the floor as like a PG !
W take
Most skilled big out of all of them. Needs some conditioning work tho, Seen a pick where he looked pretty thin tho
I believe Demarcus Cousins is more skilled than Jokic. Jokic is a slightly better passer, is better at catch & shoot. That's it. Scoring wise it's not close imo.

King Phil Not really
Anto nice argumentation.
King Phil KAT is also a lot better scorer/ rebounder than Jokic. Other than those two Jokic is up there and has potential to do more.
King Phil passing is not close

He plays so composed and calculative... Looks sorta like a poor man's Larry Bird
I can assure you, it ain't a poor mans version. He's legit and has potential to be a top all time player.
Melissa German Im not discrediting his skills but giving alot of respect to Larry Bird.

Nikola jokic the jumper!!!!!!!
Now he’s the mvp and best player on earth 🐐
Now he's FMVP and undisputed 😂
@@daddyfuse50 lmao crazy man I think he’s the goat bro

Murray and Harris, not to mention Barton, are the most talented scorers on the team.
Expect to see some dope passing tho
He gonna win an MVP someday..mark my words ;)
no chance
nikola jokic the joker for MVP
got 2 now
I would love it if he played for Houston. He'd be the perfect piece
rockets dont need jokic..they have a better center , clint capela is a beast
Moron. He can't even get signed by another team. Jokic already has a max contract.
@@dejanjuhanovski9504 lmaoooo what drugs were u on then
@@jayh4709 my comment is almost five years old. back then, capela was better than jokic
@@dejanjuhanovski9504 you're smoking big crack all clint was a lob threat on the rockets and a good defender at that time jokic was still balling he just wasn't at his peak
I know we love comparisons... but honestly who reminds u off him? dude he's something else.
Majin Mexican Larry bird
Dirk
Very impres what hi is doing . Old scool centert . Top 10 offensiv player right now.
the fact that he operates in slo-mo might disrupt the flow of the defenders

damn this guy jokic is on fireeeee if i was him and his side in the nba i be dropping body like no tommorow lolll. supprising he not dunking over man dem, man need to be more aggressive. playing sofe like that aint getting no max deal bUdy... just need to be aggressive and show the team that he deserve a MAX DEALL RIGHT PEOPLE? 25.47mill well deserve that payroll. nowaday men them getting pay like that they get sluppy after year two.lol
Kinda Dirk like with some crafty passing
Spencer Dye but that’s the point dirk can’t pass like this, he’s like a taller Larry bird
This guy ended up being a way better scorer than dirk. Would have been crazy saying this 6 years ago lol
TAKE A SHOT EVERY TIME A FOUL WAS COMMITTED ON JOKIC BUT WASNT CALLED (In this video)... I dare you to wake up the next morning!
Y0
Where’s the highlights where he would abuse draymond green in the post? Real definition of mouse in the house and green was DPOY
Ver Bal no one can guard jokic, unless they foul him like Taj Gibson did.
SoosUnknown pound for pound, Jokic is hands down the most skilled offensive player in the league..jokic can literally do everything that impacts an nba offense, something that players like lebron, KD, or curry have limitations in their game
Ver Bal he has the handles of a point guard in a centers body. If he was a little stronger he would be unguardable
@@LeBaby-t3m Lmaooioo. European are funny
The next Larry bird
Dirk 2.0 with court vision.
Viktor Krum
Should of went to the spurs ..
not a single dunk in this video
AngevineG angevine Exactly.
he has more triple doubles than dunk's

the nuggets should Sign deandre Jordan
Why? Jokic is their Center of the future.
justin dinkins he can play the 4 they don't have a room protector
They have Paul Millsap at the 4 and I'm pretty sure Deandre Jordan wants alot of money. The Nuggets main priority is to sign Harris, Jokic, and Murray for the next 5-6 years and find a SF.
