DENVER – The NBA is populated by the world’s greatest athletes, big people who can run faster and jump higher than the laws of nature should allow.
That’s what makes games like Sunday’s so much fun. It’s a reminder that it’s not all about high-flyers and dunk shows. Luka Donu010diu0107 and Nikola Jokic are dribbling, passing, ground-bound proof.
The two Europeans, one who owns three MVP trophies and the other who has his sights set on winning his first in the near future, play the game with similar skill sets. And another thing they have in common is the ability to befuddle opposing coaches.
