Wow, this guy reminds me of Larry Bird kind of special! Unselfish, amazing passing, makes everyone better. I might actually start watching NBA again just to see this guy play.
No big man has had this kind of finesse and soft hands. Sabonis, Walton, Divac were all great passers, but none of them were doing backspin bounce passes in the middle of the paint or were handling the ball like a guard
This is why I love the nuggets. Ever since I started watching basketball around the Carmelo years they've always been the best passing team. And now they're a passing team with a maestro at the helm. Love the culture.
Great passing is even more impressive to me than great shooting. It takes great athleticism and accuracy, but also an acute awareness of what is going on on the court and an unselfishness to pass rather than shoot.
Nuggets players are ready for anything which makes the entire team that much more effective. At 1:39, I would have taken that 3 instead of settling for a 2. Not out of selfishness, but because every single point counts and could make or break the game in the end.
Ur last number of like is the team u getting drafted by 1:Lakers 2: Gsw 3: Celtics 4: rockets 5: nuggets 6: Sixers 7: Trail blazers 8: Pelicans 9: Timberwolves 10: Spurs
@@mwk_powerlifting Nah, disagree - Only in this season LeBron could average over 10 ass/game (with that Lakers team he is on now, no big deal). CP3 averages in career 2 assist more than Lebron per game. My opinion is clear, but tastes are different, be well.
There is no question that when it’s all said and done. Jokic will be the best passing big man ever and it’s not even gonna be remotely close. What steph has done with three point line, Jokic is doing with his assist numbers at the center position
Okay, Wilt once lead the league in assist and up till now, he was the best passing center in the NBA. There's a new Sheriff in town! Current NBA players are beating up on Bird, first Steph Curry takes the best shooter ever crown, now Nikola Jokic is going to take away the best passing big man crown.
in theory Grant (long, low usage, athletic forward with decent shooting touch ) is ideal front court partner to Jokic since they can cover each others weakness and play to their strengths...on other hand undersized Manimal was subpar defender with poor touch outside of restricted area...But in reality Manimal was elite at his strengths, was menace on offensive glass and generated tremendous gravity from short corner (when paired with high level playmakers) and Grant is subpar rebounder despite his elite tools and he is not yet developed high level chemistry with Jokic
@@predragon6196 but they are getting there, do you remember the beginnings of pairing with Milsap, Plumlee as well, Nurk didn't work, with Manimal it was a terrible defense and I can really notice how chemistry is developing between Grant and Jokic
That Jokic/Manimal Duo was Insane 🔥🔥
jokic & grant even better ;-)
@@djuradunavac9546 grant is a freak of a nature he blows my mind everytime he jumps!
@@djuradunavac9546 they haven't even got it brewin yet, so many missed hectic lobs this year. No idea why haha
Next gen Stockton to Malone
If Tom Brady plays in the NBA. he can do passes like this, even better.
He looks like this clumsy giant but he plays with so much flair and makes it all look so effortless
yup and this was just his passing
It's like he's clumsy and precise at the same time.
If Tom Brady plays in the NBA. he can do passes like this, even better.
Fluffy Cooky yeah
Keep compare
Drunk master!
@@cookyjungkookie6244 Yeah. No Tom would be too short to pass like Jokic. His ceiling would be like Rondo or Ricky Rubio.
Jokic made Faried look like an all star in this video.
Faried should give half his career earnings to Jokic.
I will never not watch new uploads of jokic passing compilations
Poetry in (slow) motion. Could watch this all day long. Idemo Jokaraaaaa 🏀🏀🏀
If Tom Brady plays in the NBA. he can do passes like this, even better.
His passing is piece of art
Best big man passer ever....
nope Sabonis and Walton
90s Basketball Bios fucking racist
@@The__Nation how's that racist
Barring serious injuries, by the end of his career he will be
@@davidconejr4206 Sabonis was awesome I remember watching him play. But only averages 2 assists a game for his career.
Who ever "dislikes" this video doesn't know basketball!
The 7 foot point guard just doin his thing 😁 💪🇷🇸
KAT and Embiid fans ;)
The ideal teammate. The kind of leader and player that makes everyone better around him
he's living three seconds in the future. just far enough that he KNOWS where the target will be.
Yes, you say the WHOLE TRUTH
Observation Haki
Exactly.
Wow, this guy reminds me of Larry Bird kind of special! Unselfish, amazing passing, makes everyone better. I might actually start watching NBA again just to see this guy play.
Dude is the laziest looking passer ever. It just looks like he's only half there, then just flicks it to players he's not even looking at
No big man has had this kind of finesse and soft hands. Sabonis, Walton, Divac were all great passers, but none of them were doing backspin bounce passes in the middle of the paint or were handling the ball like a guard
If prime Sabonis was teleported into today’s NBA, he be just as good as Jokic.
Bucks fan, but man Jokic is so good with these passes man, just like Arvydas Sabonis. Miss Manimal highlights too.
Sabonis or also Divac were good passing Centers but Jokic is ... another level.
Joker + Giannis would be fun to watch. Probably could win a few chips together
If Tom Brady plays in the NBA. he can do passes like this, even better.
@@cookyjungkookie6244 yes of course, in your imagination he can do anything, but let's be real here, don't compare a nugget-thrower with the Joker ;)
Also gotta give some props to his teammates for being ready and able to catch these outta-nowhere passes.
We are so lucky that Nikola Jokic is not a point Guard
Idk bruh I think he’s almost better as a center, allows nuggets to run a completely unique offense
Imagine Jokic is a 6'3 athletic pg
@@dyokthegoat we already had that in Stockton, Nash, Kidd, Rondo, Teodosic for Euroleague fans. Jokic 7foot with their passing is unique
😂
I Miss The NBA 😭 especially JOKIC
This is why I love the nuggets. Ever since I started watching basketball around the Carmelo years they've always been the best passing team. And now they're a passing team with a maestro at the helm. Love the culture.
They have never been the best passing team
Should watch a team called the spurs or warriors
His passing is incredible, he's taken birds passing from the 80's.
A prime Tim Duncan vs Jokic would be a hell of a one on one matchup.
Yup. Jokić stated that Duncan was somewhat of an idol ti him coming up as a player.
@@tulbanhawk I heard that Boris Diaw was Joker favorite player
"Where did that pass come from?"
- "Not sure I did."
The Best Passing Big Man in NBA History so far.
This guy is something else , this guy is hall-of-fame in the making . Absolutely joy to watch and yes I miss flying Manimal as well .
The Joker is so much fun. Man, the Europeans have really come along...Joker, KP, Luka...
Nikoula Joukič ❤
One of the best players in the NBA...
Pedja Šile not too many big men in NBA history can pass like him
Great passing is even more impressive to me than great shooting. It takes great athleticism and accuracy, but also an acute awareness of what is going on on the court and an unselfishness to pass rather than shoot.
He's something special
Fareeds celebrations are just as amazing as the assists lol
The new magic, Here's show time!👏👏👏👏
Man his basketball IQ. It's like when u receive his pass you know you'll get the bucket no matter what.
“20 yrs old, he’s gonna get better folks” Man, did that quote aged so well…
Dudes one of a kind glad he's on my team
Damn! He is the new bird.
Nikola Jokic would have been the Quarterback the Broncos need after all. Lol
Nuggets players are ready for anything which makes the entire team that much more effective.
At 1:39, I would have taken that 3 instead of settling for a 2. Not out of selfishness, but because every single point counts and could make or break the game in the end.
That pass at 8:27 is so underrated
Man this was nice.
Ur last number of like is the team u getting drafted by
1:Lakers
2: Gsw
3: Celtics
4: rockets
5: nuggets
6: Sixers
7: Trail blazers
8: Pelicans
9: Timberwolves
10: Spurs
Absolute beast easily the second best passer in the game🔥🔥
Whos the first?
@@pavleopric2513 probably CP3.
Lebron is prob #1

Some One assists per game isnt whats most important lol, lebrons vision, outlet passing and accuracy that places him on top for me
If Nikola and Zion were dishing eachother it would be maddness.
Ohhhh mannnn the NBA would have to shut down again and don't forget lonzo pretty crafty with some of his passes
@@carmelookc7014 lonzo and Zion is fuuuuuun
He is a Beast....Scores, Blocks and a damn good Passer
He Is Literally A Point Center ...
His making plays b4 it happens! A beast on his own!!
Favorite Player by far…!
Ovo se ne uci,dobiva se rodjenjem!!! BRAVO!!!
The stretch-mark 5!!!!!
The Scratch Mark 5
FIFY
There is no question that when it’s all said and done. Jokic will be the best passing big man ever and it’s not even gonna be remotely close. What steph has done with three point line, Jokic is doing with his assist numbers at the center position
LMAOOOOO look at that minnesota player's reaction 8:43, dude's just tired of jokic
Man he is so fun to watch.
mvp
This man still have doubters.
01:00 from this angle it made it looked even more amazing 😮
His fifth year.. and So Far.. ridiculously good
why when this man hold the ball, everybody is slowed down. Some kinda debuff?
11:49.....perfect
Insane accuracy on those throws even the long ones.
Love that Joker!
great passing ability
💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
She made me subscribe.
Highest IQ in the NBA for sure
Art
JOKIC NIKOLA is a SPACEMAN !!!
DJOKOVIC NOVAK is a SPACEMAN too !!!!
They need to start counting his touchdown passes :)
The best point center ever
i think he can be mvp
0:45 dude actually pronounced his name correctly
Manimal looks like Moses cuh
I swear no matter how good the nuggets will be with this roster I will always forget they exist
Facts lmao
The uniforms change so much it looks like he’s played for like 10 different teams 😂
0:26 That pass was too good
Damn I miss the NBA ;_;
sick!
Killer peripheral vision.
Nikola Joker. He's an a HOF career track.
Its fun to see faried on highlights. Whatever happened to him
Lol yea I didn’t even know he still was in the nba
Joker the magician... A music...
He loses control of the ball quite often, but always redeems himself.
Can you imagine this man playing center in the warriors 2017 motion offense with steph, klay, KD, and draymond?
Pure BBL bonanza!
I like the Joker... shades of Legend Larry there.
1:06 "twenty years old, he's gonna get better folks". You have no idea.
Dr. Nikola Jokič
They re-uploaded this one
The BEST PASSING AND BALL HANDLING CENTER IN THE NBA EVER!
Serbian school 🇷🇸💪
Got some water polo in him lol
Faried should give half his career earnings to Jokic.
I like how in most clips when Jokic some crazy behind pass, the commentators bring up Larry Bird's name...
"(So Far)" like we're gonna get sports back one day.....good one
Looks like Steve Nash or ginobili passes. Crafty AF 😳🙃
a lot of credit to his teammates for all the movement
of course if you pass like that, guys move like that
I can see a bit of prime Sabonis (Father of Domantas)
Jokic is a point fountain. Those with the biggest bucket get the most points
Okay, Wilt once lead the league in assist and up till now, he was the best passing center in the NBA. There's a new Sheriff in town!
Current NBA players are beating up on Bird, first Steph Curry takes the best shooter ever crown, now Nikola Jokic is going to take away the best passing big man crown.
many of these plays would put most guards to shame. goddamn.
The tide is coming, it's slow and you can't tell it's coming but it will eventually drown you. And there is nothing you can do to stop it but run.
The Nuggets game announcers make it fun with their excitement!!! Lol
Damn
Is Grant the new Manimal?

That can shoot and switch on defense.
