They know that no matter what's going on in the game, if they are open, the joker is going to find them. That's something often overlooked about him, he keeps his teammates in game and involved every second, his playmaking goes beyond the assists and stats.

What I love about Jokic's passing is that it isn't flashy just for the sake of being flashy. If he goes behind-the-back, it's because that was the **only** way to get the pass through. If he does a no-look, it's because he needed to freeze the defender. everything he does has purpose.

Jokic is the epitome of "Slow is smooth. Smooth is fast" Dude is deceptively athletic and people don't give him enough credit for the footwork and body control. And his strides and dunks can be very athletic.
@samantharay6098
his dunks can be very athletic??? xD i think thats a bit of an overstatement he has a quick first step now, but he still doesnt have much explosive speed past that, he just knows how to use his size to seal off once he has inside position i would not call his dunks athletic lol he might get there, but he needs a few more years to change his body

I have been watching the NBA since the late 1950s, and I have never seen a passer with as many ways of delivering the ball as effectively and beautifully as Jokic does night after night. For me, he's the epitome of what makes basketball such a beautiful game. And his floating soft-touch shots in the lane are unlike anything I have ever seen from a big man. So much fun to watch.

Nikola Jokic is the evolution of what we should have had if we had prime Arvydas Sabonis in the league before he got run into the ground. He is the next level of a player we never got to see: a 7-footer with a 3-point shot and an array of passes out of the Magic Johnson/Pete Maravich playbook. Guy has the physical abilities of a big man with the handling and passing of a little guy and the vision of someone playing a video game. Absolutely phenomenal.

He pushes the ball up the court like a point guard, dribbles with the ball behind the back, shoots 3-pointers, makes no-look ridiculous passes, scores, rebounds, assists, steals, blocks..... and he does it all in total ease. grace, smoothness and calmness with his intelligence at work instead of making unnecessary flashy moves or doing more than what's needed.

Yes. As long as you are willing to accept your role on the team, that you won’t be alpha, you will get buckets. Not every NBA player wants to be anything other than the alpha. So they require players who can accept their roles. Even Jamal Murray can’t just do his own thing. Lots of stars don’t accept the role player position until they’re long used up, like Chris Paul or Dwight Howard. I can’t imagine Jayson Tatum or James Harden being able to play Jamal Murray’s position. Or Lamelo Ball. I think Kyrie Irving now can, who seems to be willing to pass more than Harden. Maybe Steph Curry as well.

True no looks (none of that lame look away after the pass is made that other guys do), touch passes, half court bounce passes, outlet passes, entry passes, lobs, skip passes, behind the back, over the shoulder, over the head etc etc. He's all-time great at misdirection, anticipation, and high level reads, basketball IQ stuff most NBA players never even become good at.

Nikola Jokic! The Joker! Big Honey! The Serbian Savant! The Janitor! The Big, Big Fundamental! The Son of Sombor! The People’s Champ! And let’s not forget…The MVP!
@100daychallange5
And people who doesn't know basketball will say that he is unattractive player to watch. It is just magic, nothing more. Best basketball in world rn
@Screenwriter1953
It must be exuberating playing with him knowing that "we are all in it together" - playing as one and knowing that each play was the best one at that particular moment! No favoritism and no ego plays!

Not only does he have crazy vision to see these passes, they are delivered in such a precise way that ONLY his teammate is able to get the ball.
@user-ld4nm7xo7x
He reminds me of old days Lakers' Magic Johnson. The kind of assists that are far more beautiful than scoring. It's hard to come by these days.

@stickman1742 6 mesi fa
He doesn't really play like Magic though, his passes look exactly like Bird passes. Everything I see Joakic do in passing is right out of Bird's arsenal. People talk more about Bird's shooting, but I watched him for his passing. Far more entertaining.

@@stickman1742 His height gives him an advantage and bigger toolbox than Bird. There are Jokic passes Bird could never had made that rely on both the visuals of his heigh and the reach. In that sense, he's a better passer. That he can reliably hit threes, run the court, and play decent defense makes him ridiculous for a big man like that who can also dominate the paint.
@vicinoorsini5163
Additionally, if you overdefend the high or sideways passes, he hits you with Ginobili-like nutmeg
@kenkthesensai4145
You have to want to be good at passing; to be unselfish and find the open man. That is Jokic and that's why they are the champs.

This is why Nuggets are dominating the league. KCP and Gordon are having the most efficient seasons of their careers because Jokic is feeding them with these cheatcode balls all the time.

wt impressed me the most is how he casually runs back at D like nothing amazing highlights happened, so simple/humble big man.

@user-pz4pf3kq9j
ABSOLUTELY AMAZING, his basketball IQ is off the charts. As one of his teammates, i'd imagine you'd have to be so focused & being ready for a pass any where, anytime of the game. Just AMAZING & ENJOYABLE to watch. & the fact that he's so humble & not self centered like most nba players. TOTAL CLASS.

Jokic 背匡策應傳球 突破分球 那麼到位,應該說他的觀察力傑出具有洞察機先的預觀技術 Preview,太多球員是找人傳球或是看著人傳球,全世界都知道你要傳給誰了~.此外隊友非常懂得適時從弱邊做跟進空手切入,而不是死站在一個位置等球.很棒的團隊籃球.
@georgeharrison5819
Jokic fits so well in the athleticism of the NBA
@playerthefirst4912
His basketball IQ is unparraleled, I mean look at 5:45 it's as if he didn't even even need to turn he knew he was there. His understanding of where his teammates are and their positions and movement is similar to the level of Lionel Messi and David Beckam, scanning the the foreground whilst knowing his own situation, incredible.

He isn't being flashy or a show dog. Every one of those passes are technical and tactical. Building an offensive around him was one of the best decisions an NBA coach ever made.

@aymanibrahim9736
Jokic is what Lebron aspired to be when he realized he can never come as good as MJ, a Magic / Bird Hybrid. But Jokic actually does it Sith pure skill, IQ, mentality, footwork and just an artist. Glad the newer generation will watch some real talent and not some media prop.

I've heard Larry Bird was a phenomenal passer. Decided to watch his passing and highlights assist which were totally amazing but I never laughed out loud like seeing the utter genius of the Joker here. He's the Tesla of basketball.

This guy is for real good. Only started watching the nba relentlessly since 2015 and i think were about to witness another 3-5 seasons of jokic dominance. Hes effortless triple double getter and if he wants he can get his 50 on any team in the league. So sick of the hypejobs stealing media attention. This man like luka are the future.

This is a really well put together video. The way it attempts to live up to the title. Also how all the volley ball passes appear in sequence. His pass at probably deserved to show up later in the video though; one of my favorites of his career. The recognition/look is whatever, but the actual touch/execution of the pass itself is just sublime.
