If Nikola Jokic was elected almost indisputably MVP of the 2020-21 season, it is because he is a wonderful specimen, it is because he has played all the games of his franchise, it is because he has experienced an air gap of about half a second in the season, it is because he is probably the Serbian translation of the word perfect, and it is – also – because he has feasted more his colleagues that a lot of parents don’t do it for their kids’ Christmas. The proof in pictures and quite frankly, there’s no better way to start a week.
When Nikola Jokic gives a pass to a buddy, it’s not just a pass. It is a springtime sweetness whatever the season, it is a contemporary poem with or without rhyme, it is an ode to the beautiful game, it is an invitation to smile. The magical vision of a Milos Teodosic at its best, but with Baloo’s body after a party. The clairvoyance of Chris Paul with 25 centimeters more under the gauge, the sense of the show of Jason Williams who would have eaten Steve Nash who would have eaten Jason Kidd.
Playing with Nikola Jokic is thus the assurance of eating Gucci at all hours, and Will Bartons, Michael Porter Jr., PJ Dozier, Paul Millsap and other JaMychal Green have each been entitled last season to their house caviar, here with the fingertips like a volleyball player, there from the end of the world like a quarterback. Because a balloon in Niko’s hands is a diamond that we cherish, but it is also, sometimes, a mirabelle that we can catapult thirty meters further and to the nearest millimeter, while extracting the core. so as not to hurt anyone. Passes, passes all year, 8.3 on average and over 600 in total from December to June, most of which have more of a place in the pass museum than in redundant Top 10.
A Top 10 like the one that the NBA offers us below, a real recovery transition, and a video in any case perfect to get back in the bath a little over forty days before the recovery. Go on, plug in the speaker and throw me some Mozart with this Top 10, because Niko he doesn’t look at himself, Niko he lives.
