If you don’t get his sense of humor you might get the impression he just sees it as a job. But he lost 25 lbs to get better, he changed his diet, he lifts weights after EVERY game even the triple overtime playoff game v Portland, he watches coaching seminars and sends comments to the coaches, he plays almost every game even when Malone wants him to sit. He loves basketball, playing it the right way, his teammates and his family.
the 50 million a year he gettting a year might have something to do with that
You just described a guy who wants to be the best at his job to earn the most
Idk if that prove she loves it though lol that just confirms more he takes it very seriously because it’s his career.
Oh Nikola loves BBALL....he attented few coaches seminars here from estinguished Serbian coaches as Željko Obradovic...if someone attented BBall seminars should know how boring is that you not go there if you do not like BBALL and i mean really love...he just dont like all of side things that came from playing in NBA which is we all agree awefull and dont have many in common with BBALL....
He probably loves basketball, but hates the media circus and interpersonal conflicts that come with being a basketball player.
@@PlanetOfTheApes999 Probably, Draymond Green spoke about it on the Paul George podcast, it's something that a lot of player underestimate before coming to the league, you don't just play basketball, you have to handle media, trainings, travels away from your family, stress from the competition, expectactions on your performance etc...
I think Jokic handles it very well, for some reason some player put less effort than him in improving their game and body but just because of some images of him after the finals he gets this etiquette that he doesn't care about it.
He's just here to pay for his horses
W comment
This man is so good that when he had a game in finals vs heat with like 25/14/4 on 55% we all said he had a bad game
Insanity
HIS WORST someone's BEST.
Absolutely true!
In order to become a top player in any sport today, and especially with tough competition as in NBA, it requires tremendous sacrifices and dedication, so I understand him.
I love it so refreshing to see sportsmanship. Sincerely hope he wins it again all of it. Especially love how he doesn't have a shimmy dance move after scoring a single basket every single time
Let the man live. He is what he is and that's all to it.
The truth is I get it.
Kobe once said that he couldn't sleep one night because of the kids. But fans don't care. You still have to perform.
Why do people always bring the rapist up?
@@JSauer21 rapist?? His kids kept him up. Still had to play tired.
@@otispage4 Yes he was a rapist. Should have been in jail instead of on a court, so I could care less if the poor baby got bad sleep one night tbh
He loves basketball but it doesn’t define his life. Players don’t know what they’re going to do when they can’t play anymore. He knows
Tony Parker knew exactly what to do after his career. When retirement came, he enjoyed the moment. Don’t have to wake up early anymore, just do what you want, he prepared everything years before. Interesting similarity: TP owns race horses too 😅 but he’s also a winery owner, a passion he shares with Pop.
separate business and passion and all will be good…it’s hard but very efficient and effective!
He's an introvert. I think media and fan obligations would tire any introverts.
"Practice"?! - Allen Iverson 🤣
Well, there's a difference between basketball and that the NBA is. There's the sport and then there's all of everything around it. Contracts, obligations, media, pressures, fandom etc.
He loves the game, his teammates and being in a team setting.
He hates talking to media, the incessant drama/bs, social media.
He's a cross between Tim Duncan and Kawhi. Timmy supposedly is a funny guy in private and Kawhi narrative is he's an android.
NBA media know how to deal with the narcissists, the prima donnas, the schemers, the LeBron's, the passive aggressive social media tweeters. If they're not they don't know what to do.
US hustle culture vs Euro super laid back culture
Yup
Brilliant vid.

Basketball ≠ NBA, he loves bball, but we all can agree that the NBA has many negatives, specially if your are not about that lifestyle.
No but he treats it as job and would like more time at home, the season is loooong when you're the best team
Long for a professional sports team. Not a long time working compared to a regular full time job….
Not trying to take anything away from athletes. The guys who make it in the league earned all the benefits that come with it. It’s just a humbling reality if you compare a sports stars offseason to how much time you get off as a regular person.
@@billyhopkins10 you act like they don’t workout and practice during offseason
It’s a such a privilege and honor to play in the NBA. Kids growing up from the slums of America would die to even get a contract with the G-League. No one forced him to leave Serbia. No one forced him to leave the Serbian league. Stay your ass home and do what you love if you hate doing a job that most of us play as hobbies.
Why would he do that with the money he's making?
@@jarrettlowery2802 because he hates the NBA?
@@qadoo11 he obviously doesn't hate it enough to turn down the money.
@@jarrettlowery2802 yet he praises Serbian basketball but doesn’t want to play there. Stop it.
@@qadoo11 He can praise Serbian basketball all he wants, we see where he's at. He just treats it like a job and he's good at it. Since when do we require athletes to be enthusiastic?
Jokić hates the hype and talks
Why would he hate basketball? It's a job. Not a passion. He's a professional. Asians and Europeans are fans of tennis, football and cricket. It's rare to be see an emotional wreck like Kobe in those sports.
Well actually, there are a number of great tennis players with atrocious personalities. John MacEnroe, Andre Agassi, Nick Kyrgios and many others come to mind.
@@PlanetOfTheApes999I didn't know that about Agassi.
There just too many games in one season man.
Nikola likes to play basketball, otherwise he would never have picked up a basketball. He likes the sports team and the team atmosphere, seeing the team as his extended family. He doesn't like training, (and who does?), he doesn't like excessive attention and unnecessary wasting of time, which is why he can't spend more time with the people he'd rather be with. When sport becomes a profession, it becomes less of a love and more of an obligation. When something is a liability, it is less attractive. Professional basketball in the USA requires more commitments both off the basketball court and the game itself. That's what Nikola doesn't like, and what bothers him the most.
Guys its still job who cares,he will be again MVP
Being a sports journalist and analyst, and hating Jokic like this means not having a clue about your job and completely misunderstanding basketball as a team sport. Jokić is hated by journalists who do not see a big difference between basketball, bodybuilding and circus! Basketball is not a Hollywood blockbuster in eight sequels with faceless special effects or a plastic BigMac! Real basketball requires a sufficient IQ!
9:47 cheek-a-go bulls? wtf kind of ai dictation is this
Haven’t heard of them, a new team. Jokes aside my bad on that one 🙏
Glory to the workers!
If I was a Denver fan I’d be so scared about the fact ye could just say “fuck this” and ditch basketball 😂
U dont get as good as he is if u hate sumthing, i think he hates the media circus show of it all...
Too bad Courtside TV couldn't find a computer voice that could speak correct English and grammar...
Pretty sloppy work!
😂razian sz he
These are correct European principles you will never manage to understand. So, you deduce that Jokić hates the hate. Pathetic ..
Why would I listen to anything Nick Wright says?
Chick uh go bulls?? Wtf was that pronunciation @9:47
bro is crying about making 60m a year
I would understand if he had to work some s*** warehouse job for s*** pay in one of the most expensive county in America and still played basketball for free in the NBA and never saw any real positive for his hard work in NBA but thats not the case for him is it
Jokic>Embiid
he love basketball but hate interviews . that is fact
I fckn LOVE THIS EXTRATERRESTRIAL MAN🃏🃏🃏🫡🫡🫡🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️🍻🙌🏻❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
It’s just not his only thing in his life. Just because he’s a professional doesn’t mean he needs to make it the single focal point in his life
