Indulge me for a moment as I take a victory lap. After listening to pundits and skeptics for months about how the league has “figured out Nikola Jokic” or “scouted him and learned how to shut him down,” I finally get to sit here and tell all of you, I TOLD YOU SO!!! After months of hearing about how he’s not as good as the numbers suggest, how he’s over rated, and how he’s not a star player, I finally get the last laugh.
Nikola Jokic is a very special player and it’s becoming more and more obvious as time goes by.
