Nikola Jokic wasn’t to blame for Denver’s Game 1 loss, just ask the Spurs

It wasn’t Joker’s fault.

And if you don’t believe the film from the Nuggets’ Game 1 loss in the first round of their NBA playoff series against San Antonio, then believe the Spurs players.

“You say (Nikola) Jokic had a bad game?” veteran San Antonio forward Rudy Gay said Monday before the Spurs practiced for Tuesday’s Game 2. “He had a triple-double. He got a lot of shots for a lot of players. And (there was his) rebounding, and (he) also scored a little bit. But he still feels like he can play better, so our job is not done with him.
