How can you not love this guy (Jokic). 

Post#1 » by AleksandarN » Wed May 18, 2022 8:05 pm

And some people say he is not a hard worker. This is the rawest I have ever seen him. Such a humble person.

Awesome player but Jokic fans are like clingy girlfriends needing to be told how much they're loved every five minutes.

Came in to see who "this guy" was, saw it's Jokic.

Then my focus shifted to how soon 76ers/Embiid got involved into the discussion, it was post #2.

That's it for me.

I don't see why they would. MPJ has a serious back issue that isn't going away. I rather even have an old Harden over him.

Jimmy has been to the finals though. Hopefully Jokic can get there

There was a thread a few weeks ago as to why wasn't a narrative surrounding Jokic about him being a super hard worker. Seems like the Nuggets saw that and realized they needed to put out some content!

Well regardless of all the hoopla it was pretty cool of the Nuggets to go all the way to Sombor to give the man his MVP trophy at the horse stable. It's insane how far he's come and it'll be fun watching his career progress.

Love the fact he was casually going horse carriage racing and was very casual about it.

I wouldnt trade Harris and Maxey for those three. Harden I'd let walk after his player option or sign and trade.

I liked the part of the video where Jokic says "My trainer - my horse trainer - said 'Let's do the fast workouts in the afternoon.' And I was like 'That is weird.' We usually do it in the morning." just in that it gives the sense that Jokic's off season life is set up around training his horses, and that he's out there every day working on it with the trainers.
