How Nikola Jokic scored 37 points (!) after halftime against the Clippers 

That last play blew me away. He gets doubled, fakes passing it to the open man who just lost a defender, guides the defense to start guarding the players getting opened up, and then finally chucks it across the entire court to the only guy free enough to sink a 3. That is genius-level stuff.

You put this man on any team, ANY team in the NBA, and it's a contender. He is absolutely sensational.

Opponents couldnt even be mad at Jokic's game. That was just a master class of playing the game the right way.

I’m a Celtics fan but all my basketball enjoyment has come from Jokic this year just love seeing the big guy work

the amount of times I've seen Jokic just standing still shoot the ball over a 7 foot defender with an arm in his face without fading or jumping is insane. his form is a bit unorthodox but literally impossible to guard he's totally unfazed by pressure.

Jokic is impressive, but thinking basketball uploading so often recently is way more impressive! Love it!

This perfectly shows how impactful this man is the Nuggets will be lost without him

That game winning assist was an amazing pass. One of the best I've ever seen.

this video was amazing. it's true: as a clipper fan, all i could do was laugh in amazement at all of this. it really is hilarious & beautiful because he's such a unique player.

Jokic was created by the basketball gods

Jokic has CP3 level of playmaking and passing, combined with Hakeem post up moves, Dirk 3pt shot and elegance, Shaq rebounding abilities, and that's basically the recipe for the best offensive center in the history of the league. The sky is the limit for this guy! Edit: since some point out Jokic is better than Embiid in the post, you are right, I was just giving a comparison. I will change it to Hakeem post moves.

It is so infuriating nobody cares that Big Honey is just plainly the best player in basketball right now. He is so disrespected. Anyone who actually watches and knows and cares about basketball can appreciate his greatness.

He is a one man offense it’s insane

This man made me fall in love with basketball again! Jokic and thinking basketball for the matter of fact

This is probably my favorite video disecting Jokic's inpact on the game. Your choice of chousing not only his point and assists, but actions which didn't end with a basket is a school lesson for those(most) who just don't watch Denver games cause tgey are small and boring market. Thank you for this...

Omg Malone diving in there screaming NO DEAR GOD!!! is likely what the entirety of Denver was feeling right then. It's the type of behavior you ONLY see from coaches when it's THE most valuable player on the court by a huge margin.

I love jokic! I bet $50 last year at start of season he would win MVP and won $1550. He’s unbelievable!

I'm a die hard Raps fan, and even I can't help but watch and admire Jokic as he plays.

You should keep doing smartest plays of the month, i liked a lot the november video, love your breakdowns and analysis

This was an unexpectedly great game considering both rosters right now. I'm a Clippers fan and I was hoping Jokic didn't get ejected after picking up that tech. Somehow he's the MVP and still underrated.

The best thing about the last pass is the precision, perfectly into the shooter's pocket. Not too high, too low, too wide left or right. Just perfect for the best outcome.

That final pass is a connection no other player in the NBA can make.

dude is literally having the greatest individual season in modern NBA history but somehow people thought he wasn't worthy of MVP lmao

how the hell did jokic outplay 5 defenders at the same time with a pass where he didn't even move

Since I found this channel I barely watch any other basketball content, the quality is just on another level. The mix of video footage and stats delivers a perfect picture of the subject being covered

as a mavs fan, hate to admit but Jokic has what would've made Dirk invincible. He rebounds. This guy is on pace to become one of the best Centers in NBA history

That last pass was unbelievable. Perfectly thrown out of a double team right into Gordon’s shooting pocket from 30 feet out. If it had been even a little off line and Gordon had had to gather it in I don’t know if he gets the shot off in time. Amazing!

You can clearly see the frustration on Zubac's face. poor dude

The fact he makes the reads In real time is insane

He might be only person in the league that would and could make that game-winning pass. Absolute king 👑

That pass, good lord. That'll be on the highlight reel for years to come.

I love how Jokic perfectly described the last play like you did in his interview. He's genius in basketball.

Love all the content Jokic for MVP

How is this man NOT leading the MVP race!? He’s been great literally the entire season!

This dude is so underrated! I mean: there's no answer against this dude other than himself (in a very cold performance night). And, as always, a great analysis!

That game winning pass is just Insane.

Jokic is my favourite player to watch. Thanks for putting into words and images what makes him so special.

As a Celtic fan this season has been agonizing. I gotta admit the Joker's bball IQ is higher than the whole Boston team plus coaching staff combined.

Best offensive big man in NBA history , no doubt

How many times have I said this, "Nikola Jokic is the perfect 5 for the Golden State Warriors system"

If I could describe Jokic I would simply say ‘Precision Machine’.

For those who didn't watch this game live, you missed out. Easily the best game of the season so far

I love it how he just solves any problem thrown at him. He overpowers the quicker guys. Uses his skill to pass through the big ones. If you are big and quick, he outsmarts you anyway. Lebron-like.

I get chills watching Jokic play. Thank you so much for dissecting this for us to enjoy!

Like...I know the NBA is the most exclusionary sport there is (height, hand-size, specific youth conditioning programs) like less than one percent of a percentile even gets an opportunity to put their drive to the test. But Jokic? Sheesh. Even with the parameters I've mentioned he's talent off the charts. Arguably in the same tier as Giannis. None of us could even fathom what it's like to walk 6'6 with Jordan's hand size, let alone Giannis'. But dude...Jokic just doesn't look the stereotype and it's incredible how effective it is. Shaq tier, except decision making. It's absolutely insane and real talk only Giannis and sometimes Embiid break my brain to the same degree of humanity surpassing the sport stupidly. Not even KD does to this degree because of the paint pushing and passing. His vision is extraordinary in an already extraordinary physical setup for basketball. As fun as it is to see more normal sized humans (if you can even utter that phrase when it comes to the NBA) succeed like Ja and Curry this degree of otherworldliness can't be denied. The Joker my MVP right now and that really shouldn't be a hot take-

I can honestly say I couldn't understand why Jokic would get such high praise for MVP, but this video just made me a witness.

A statement game from the MVP

That euro step for a huge bear man was so smooth

Goddamn somebody give Jokic some help lol, this team without him rn is borderline G-league level.

As a heat fan, there's no team I fear the most than Denver. They already beat us twice this season. All because they can't contain this guy.

His skill set and talent level are just as unique as Olajuwon, KAJ, Shaq, etc.. alltime great center in the making

Like Larry Bird at SF, there really aren’t any Joker comps at the center position. He’s a point center who has no weaknesses except jumping ability. And with his frame, he really doesn’t need much jumping ability.

Nikola Jokic: Fine, I'll do it myself

As a clipper I fan I felt that clip at 5:17

I was watching his game last night. This dude is unreal

Finally a basketball channel with actual analysis and not hype 👌

I just noticed Monte Morris had 19 9 9, there were almost two triple doubles on the same team, that's crazy

Imagine if someone scored 37 in a quarter. that would be wild.

When your center makes Jokic look fast, you're in trouble. Amazing game by the Jokic.

And people out there doubting than Jokic should be repeating the MVP. What this man has been doing for this Nuggets is something that you will never see before...EVER. He way he raise up a team that should be down there with ORL and Detroit fighting for the last places on the NBA inside the Top3 on the draft. People talk about Curry,LeBron,Giannis,Embii as contender and i always said... Curry? The Warriors can hang to middle of the table without him with Green and now Klay, Bucks can hang with Holiday and Middleton, Philly hang without Embii. Lakers can hang without LeBron. Jokic doesn't have the luxury of having 2,3,4 all stars on his roster. Even fully healthy the Nuggets only have him as All NBA caliber player. Jamal is great, but he's not Klay,Green,Hollday,Middleton,Simmons,Anthony Davis,Gobert or Mitchell or CP3 or Harden,Kyire. All the others candidates got some serious backup on their roster. Meanwhile Joker doesn't have anybody to space the floor for him to make it easier on the paint for him or someone to grab some attention away from him. He have to deal with double and triple teams while also being fronted before even receiving the basketball.

Lovely idea to focus on a performance deeply into details ! Amazing job again, greetings from France 💪

Never thought I'd hear Jokic and quickness edge in the same sentence

Phenomenal talent. So fun to watch. Joker for MVP back 2 back.

I can only imagine being against this guy. He can stand in a 3 point line, you double him he's just gonna make a great pass and even if his teammate misses, he'll still get the rebound.

One huge advantage he has is the vision, as in....the position of his eyes lol. He is so tall that he sees over defenses and long enough to give to high passes without anyone interfering.

Insane court vision and IQ. He makes the game so fun to watch.

It's really good to see them fighting with everything they got like it's playoff.

Nothing beats an early jokic content early in the morning. 😚

Jokic is the best player in the league

Great video! I could watch Jokic all day

these breakdowns after big games by big names are sensational. Should do Embiid!

Give him the MVP no one can deny or get mad about it!

This game was beautiful and so was the video, as always

That's just an amazing pass. Happy to see AG playin some meaningful basketball.

This was an awesome video and what a play to end the game. Also funny to see him and Zubac go at it

I’m pretty sure that these cutters don’t actually catch the ball but Jokic throws it so perfectly that it naturally lands in their grasp

That last pass was sublime

This man is a certified bucket. Crazy to see the IQ and calmness this man displays while being pressured non stop.

he’s the best offensive center i’ve seen and joel is making a case for being one of the best players of all time at the moment… what i time to watch big men basketball

I know this video is about offense, but what constantly impresses me is that Jokic ALWAYS makes sure to find a body when he's hitting the glass. On top of his octopus-like arms, most people don't consciously realize how much space he takes up with his presence alone.

This season he is playing like the best player to ever live

One of the best in the NBA today. The man just does it all! Would love to see him get to the finals this year he deserves it

You can’t tell me different and it seems pretty obvious right now that Jokic is the best player in the league at the very least the most impactful and that is no disrespect to any other players

Love your work. I just wanted to say I'd love to see more breakdowns like this, or even stuff like the "greatest peaks" series but for some non-GOAT players but still HoF'ers. I'd love to see you breakdown what made Dr. J so exciting to watch, or why John Stockton was a great floor general, or why Demar DeRozan seemed lackluster on the Spurs but is having such a bounceback with a new system in Chicago. In any case, great content, rest assured I'll keep watching.

Best basketball content on YT! I would love to see a video breaking down Mavs improved defence

I am in love with jokic. Absolute artist on the court. His teammates gotta love playing with him

one of the most impressive offensive performances i have ever seen

Nikola Jokic if you don’t know is one of the best big man the league has ever seen..probably one of the best players you may ever see. Speed is irrelevant with his game because his IQ is miles ahead the next counterpart. I’d say the only person close to Jokic in basketball IQ is lebron James and that alone says enough.

U gotta give Zubac credit he actually did the theoretical best that anyone could do

As efficient as his game performance was in the first half, I like the human elements that are part of this analysis. Mike Malone coming off the bench to calm the Big Honey when he yelling to the ref for an FT' call shows the growing maturity of the relationship between coach and his MVP athlete. Jokic can definitely be a hothead but he has to channel it properly and justifiably so since he can't afford taking goofball technicals. But that ending where Jokic's footwork and eyes (to his intended teammates in motion) fooled not only the guys who wanted to double him but the other guys stuck to their defenders to hit an Aaron Gordon in the frikin corner for an open jumper was truly some David Copperfield performance. The otherworldly benefits of being a 7 footer with court vision and that soft touch.

Saw most of the second half live, just gorgeous basketball

I smelled a Joker video coming soon, this man is too disrespected. He’s not even being considered to the same degree as other candidates in the MVP race. It’s flat out disrespectful considering his performance

This was a masterful performance Jokic had last night. In fact, there phenomenal performances across the league as a whole last night. The best part about this season is how wide open the MVP race legitimately feels to be. Giannis, KD, Steph, Jokic are all heavy frontrunners. But then you have dark horse candidates as well, particularly DeMar DeRozan. An entertaining season to say the least.

Center with the playmaking of an elite point guard... Jokic is just too precious, his BBIQ for one center is legendary.

Sadly is Nikola Jokic so underrated even if he is the reigning MVP... because he´s style of playing doesn´t match what most people think what basketball is - actually the way Nikola plays is the right play to play baskrtball !! He is by far the best basketball player NBA has for decades - one of a kind !! Cheers from a Warriors fan.

we need more of this basketball in the NBA. I’m so sick of the ISO and ball dominating play that’s taken over the NBA.

Jokic is my favorite player. He is just too good this year. I think he deserves mvp carrying this nuggets team to playoffs

Favorite player in the league. Loving the more frequent uploads.

The man is an artist. The joker was pass first all night- didn’t force a single shot or take any bullshit heat check 3s and still put up 49.

Just a great breakdown. I’m a denver native I’ve sent this to a few of my casual friends to appreciate the man, the myth, the Serbian legend
