1:58 This. My job is helping Jokic to make everyone else better around him. And he is doing it by giving in 100% of his abilities at age of 36. Great example for younger players.
I heard his contract is < $4M. To play with his usual energy and passion speaks volumes of his professionalism. He still loves the game and it shows. Happy he found a team where he could fit.
Yes like in my own career it’s an essential profession and I always try to remind myself that people deserve my best effort.
Nice to point this out. Jamal Murray getting 200+ mill….
well he prob gonna get more on the next contract deal
He's 42 yo and they didnt know how RW would addapt to the play. My guessing his contract will change if he show good at the end of the season
@@venom454545Hopefully, yes! Btw, he’s 36, not 42.
Westbrook had to do everything in OKC and Wizards while
he had to deal with arrogant, egoist superstars in
Lakers, Houston and Clippers.
Nuggets are the definition of a team.
Everyone accept their roles and compliment their teamates with their plays.
That's why he's thriving.
@@rastaman2722 I think jokic has with his basketball IQ besides the obvious saw that anyone should know Westbrook is a former MVP on triple doubles. He is a great passer. But jokic could easily envision himself playing with Westbrook and probably suspected they would have great chemistry. 2 of the greatest passers ever but can also do everything else he watched tape of Westbrook and could see himself playing off Westbrook passes and dropping the ball to Westbrook on pick and role. Westbrook may not be great from 3 but he makes up for it with a strong game in the paint. He can let Murray shoot the 3 and jokic WB doesn’t have too.
If I could decide the NBA 2025 champion, as a Knick fan, i would pick Denver without a doubt. Russ deserves it
After the carrier, Jokic can be the most succesfull coach, he can recognize the greatnes in the player 💯👏
Career 😂but yea fasho l gotcha he no doubt will be or racing horses something etc.
✊🏾👏🏾💯
There's no secret... he invite his teamates to his home and drink rakija with them, and that's how he affect on them lol
after carrier Jokić will enjoy with family and horses :)
@Rebelsoul901 lol, but yeah we did know what he meant to say, it's all good to poke a little fun 👍👍
Jokic makes teammates better
If Jokic wins a chip with Russ and both of them avg a triple during the postseason 🤯😱😤😤
One persons trash is another persons treasure.
It’s all in the presentation.
I think the 2 biggest needed changes he added are 1 that he's got the younger guys playing more aggressively and 2 that he's learned to slow down when it's the better choice while still going full throttle when it's there
I already know Russ & Jokic would do great. There is a blueprint already. When Nuggets won their 1st chip, Jokic and Bruce Brown literally have the same runs and chemistry. The only difference this time is that Jokic can also be a receiver because Russ can pass the rock, and Brodies cut is more precise compared to Bruce Brown using Jokic's gravity to get easy slot cuts.
We all know that Russ probably had to take a huge paycut to play with the Nuggs, but I pray he stays with them and they contend for multiple championships together!
I apologize for calling him westbrick on streameast chat 💀
What is streameast ?
I knew before I saw them play that Westbrook was gonna enter his prime with Nuggets. How can anyone be surprised with Westbrook playing a great basketball? That's more interesting question.
To be fair, everyone was being fed poison about Russ for years. And even people that liked him may have thought that 'Hey, if all these high-paid analysts said he was done, maybe it's true'. Lucky they didn't manage to fool Jokic. The guy saw what's up. $ for $ Russ was maybe the best acquisition last year. As If Jokic doing the coaching and playing for 3 players wasn't enough, he seems to be doing front office's job for them too. I said it before, but the city of Denver better build him an obscene-sized statue once he's done playing.
He past his prime already but he is one of the best to everplay and a x factor for Denver to win
@naxamarviceroy3979 Stop, I was one of the people who thought lebron,AD and russ were going to work. But of course lebron broke his promise of playing offball and most of the Lakers couldn't handle that fast paced play. No analysts could tell me something like that when NBA players and my own eyes can see westbrook was never the issue.
Knew my ass, he is Westbrick for a reason.
@@ChessJourneyman He is now free to play, he ain't stuck anymore. Watch him getting a ring.
Russ you sir deserve a ring
The Nuggets never should have bet the farm on Jamal Murray. Westbrook is better than he is, albeit a damn sight older. Westbrook/Jokic is a beautiful thing, but the lack of depth in the Nuggets has been showing all year, and it's just gonna get worse as we approach the playoffs. As usual, Nuggets management did one thing right: signing Westbrook...and pretty much everything else wrong in terms of managing their trades/contracts/team.
Well any team getting Russ for 2-years at 6.8m is a straight up STEAL. A dream for team management yet they still can't find anymore help..
And they never would've signed Westbrook if Jokic hadn't pushed for it. The Nuggets don't deserve a generational talent like Jokic. Hopefully his greatness will lift him above the Nuggets management and he can still win another ring or two before he disappears forever.
@@Dex000x Watch the first 7 minutes of the game carefully - you see 2 players with max contracts MPJ-JM. You will not see such a shameful game on any NBA team. Watch the worst defense of a player in NBA history - MPJ elite shooter while the coach talks about him - 12.5 percent shooting for 3. Watch the defense of these two and you will laugh to tears, and the offense will make you cry.
Nuggets management is 💩 jokic was the only reason they signed russ
Honestly at this point it's a weapon to keep Murray first so the other teams cannot prepare as good
In Russ We Trust 🐐
There is no Westbrick any more! There is just real Westbrooke
Maybe LeBron can go to Denver on vet min so jokic can salvage his career 😂
Lebron would love to play with Jokic, they all would because everyone gets to eat.
Jokić-Westbrook-Simmons-James- Butler
The great redeem team.
athats a BIG HELL NO!!!
thanks, but no thanks
@timknapp6388 didn't say I wanted that haha
Jovic has no time for stat padders.
Russ going the F off❤
Jokic so good he makes a bad player like Russ effective. Russ still needs to shoot better though. That 3/11 aint gonna cut it.
I kinda want to see Russ on the slam dunk contest…
If and it's a big if Russ can continue to play within a team, he's great. His problem he starts playing like he is the team. Taking horrible shots trying to win. Turning it over trying to push. When Russ stays within his limited offensive skill set (takes shots he can actually make) he's an asset to any team. But no one has ever been able to keep Russ doing that. It sad because under control Russ in this era would easily be top 5. What he can do is special under control. Problem is no one has been able to keep him under control.
yes! no one can keep him
Russ has always been that guy, but Jokic just brought his style play out, and helped him slow down. Two players with triple doubles, in the same game is unheard of. And for those complaining about the music in the video. Do you, and let this man do him. The music isn't bad, some of you all just don't have any taste. 🫤
Russell westbrook been a superstar without the nuggets
-xt time, take care and goodbye. -xt time, take care and goodbye. -xt time, take care and goodbye.
I bet in the off-season, Jovic will introduce him to horse racing.
Just use music from Game Of Thrones
😅
This music is awful my dude I'm sorry everything else about this video is good can't deal with the music hopefully you consider changing it in the future.
Those vids have smt to tell but everything mentioned here could be told in a 60 seconds "short"... Don't repeat the same thing 10 times, it is getting annoying!
Jokari doveli krštenog igrača
jamal is useless.
booth killed the nuggets
