He doesn't even need a superstar, but consistant teammates would already do wonders for him

Honestly I’m starting to feel like Jokic is the best player I have ever seen and I’m watching NBA since Lakers won three straight. I hope he wins at least one more.

[emerdog]

I've been watching the NBA since 1970 and was a huge Kareem fan, but I've never seen any player be more productive and impactful on a consistent basis than Jokic.

[lewieexiv]

Bro is like 300 spartans vs Persians! He can kill almost all the other guys on the field but if he doesnt get some help he wont make it till the end!

[andreyv]

Jokic is consistently carrying this team

[tompratt]

Had the privilege of watching virtually all of Magic's career up close and virtually all of Joker's career up close too. Two of the greatest among the very, very greatest. Jokic is just 29 and passed Magic. That's crazy. He'll pass Big O in a couple of years and Westbrook in 3 or 4 years. Jokic and Westbrook playing on the same team have a combined 338 career triple doubles. Insane.

[VinOng-erks]

It's crazy that this is actually considered an off night from Jokic

[davd]

Charles Barkley was spot on the other day when he said that Jokic's best years are being wasted because he doesn't have help he needs and deserves. If the Nuggets want to win another title with Jokic, they better get 'greedy' as Chuck said. I am sure even Jokic himself will get annoyed at some point.

This team without Jokić would struggle in G league

[pgpacernation]

Best player in the league this dude is unstoppable

[InfiniteCoreXD]

HE OUT HERE PLAYING SOLO SQUADS DENVER WHAT IS WRONG WITH YALL

[joelamesbury]

Malone needs to replace Murray for westbrook in the starting lineup for a stretch of games until he steps up coz westbrook basically got the same points production with way more effort on defense.

[snap]

Imagine if this guy had an all star teammate.

[tipsnstreams]

If you think Murray can leave the Nuggets without repercussions, you clearly don’t understand Serbs—or Jokic, for that matter—and what truly matters to him (them). Jokic shares a deep bond with Murray and AG, and their departure isn’t even an option if you expect Jokic to keep playing at this elite level. I get it, this might be hard to grasp for those who only care about themselves, but people like Jokic do exist.

[ryanturner]

I was watching this game and eventually had to turn it off. Denver couldn't buy a basket. Felt like they missed every 3. Jokic was everywhere and looked exhausted lol.

[craigslistreply]

if lebron had this statline, ESPN wont shut up for a decade talking about it

[Silentpixel]

I still believe on Westbrook his great hustle is backing up Nikola's lack of athleticism, when Jokic turned that ball over Westbrook didn't give up at all and successfully blocked the wide open dunk. It's beautiful to see. Jokic need someone like that especially on the bench. Murray and MPJ can't defend shit they're much slower now compared to their championship run. That big money contract is getting on their head, they feel so secured. There's no hunger anymore unlike Jokic and Westbrook. Malone should always put Westbrook alongside Jokic instead of Murray. The trio Braun, Westbrook and Jokic are replacing the older trio at this point

[heihachichichan]

Joker the lone man carry the whole team

[DynamicUnreal]

He’s the 2nd best player ever. Seriously.

[FloridaInvestor]

Nuggets don't complaint when Jokic asks for a trade. If you don't get him some help.
