A lot of us know this about Nikola Jokic but I assure you many ppl do not

He wasn't even drafted in the 1st round

He went in the 2nd round 41st overall

He's also only 28yrs old and likely has a few years before he reaches his prime

Anyone on him to take MVP?

Yep he was a nice snag late in the draft

I think it's safe to say he is already in his prime tho lol will be interesting to see how long it lasts

I think most people / athletes reach their prime around 31-33 years old

There's been a few other nice second round picks but he has to top the list already when you agree

No value at -350. I bet Murray at 10-1.

There simply isn't any way Jokic doesn't win MVP if Denver wins the series.

Murray would have to average 40 plus for the series. As Jokic will ALWAYS have his baseline of 25/10/10 and be talked about all series that he doesn't make mistakes.

You could only hope for a Jokic early series injury and still have Denver pull out the series. Literally only hope. Not like Jokic is EVER going to disappear in a game and give u 12 and 5.

He literally doesn't LOL

It looks as if he's not even trying that hard
Why he was drafted 2nd round.

He doesn't look like what a superstar is suppose to look like...he looks like a slow center you would only play to take up space.

Those passes he makes in traffic or so unreal. Almost everyone else its a turnover for him its just another assist.

Jokic scouting report from ‘14: upside is limited ?

“An average athlete lacking great speed and leaping ability. He may struggle to stay in front of NBA athletes. Despite being a younger guy, his upside appears limited by his lack of explosiveness.”

Yep. Today he still looks like that scouting report. Haha.

He plays basketball like a dad playing against his son's 8th grade class.

By this i mean---by 8th grade you think you're good but ur dad is still 100x better than you at sports.

Jokic goes slow because he doesn't need to speed up anything he is so much better everyone plays at his pace. The opponents think they are a challenge but he is well aware they ain't.
