Nikola Jokic had like five whole minutes with which to get the last rebound he needed for a triple-double. For some of that time, he didn’t have the last assist, so maybe the urgency wasn’t quite there because of that, but still. That’s a lot of time, and it was only one rebound. Rebounds are…

Nikola Jokic 22 Points Full Highlights (2/24/2019)
Under normal circumstances, a pedestrian statline of 22/16/3 for Nikola Jokic would not be worthy of highlights, given that he averages 20/10/8. But these are not normal circumstances. There were only three games tonight, so I get off easy in terms of the amount of highlight videos that need to get made. Frankly, I’m very…

DTB has been pandering to Serbs for a long time. Whether it is by acknowledging their rich culture, their bloody yet brave history, the unbelievable attractiveness of their women, the stout handsomeness of their men, their unrivaled passion for the sportsmen and sportswomen of their country, the bountiful natural beauty of their lands, the high…

The second clip in this video contains what is, in my view, the worst Eurostep ever. As a person from Europe, Nikola Jokic was brought into this world with the innate ability to do Eurosteps, but I think his instincts got corrupted a little bit because this one was really awkward (and also probably a…

OFFICIAL LIST OF THINGS I BLAME FOR THE NUGGETS LOSING TO THE SIXERS POWER RANKINGS 1. Nikola Jokic. A triple-double is cool, but a fifty-point quadruple-double with ten steals would have likely resulted in a win. 2. J.J. Redick. 34 points. Why did he decide to go off in the first game of the Butler/Harris/Embiid/Simmons…
Read MoreNikola Jokic Triple Double 25 Pts/14 Rebs/10 Asts Full Highlights (2/6/2019)
With the whirlwind of trade activity going on this evening and promising to extend to tomorrow afternoon, I’m sort of surprised that the Nuggets haven’t made any big moves yet. Or any moves, really. They’re just sitting there amidst the chaos like the whole NBA isn’t being ripped down and rebuilt around them. You might…
Read MoreNikola Jokic Triple Double 13 Pts/16 Rebs/10 Asts Full Highlights (2/2/2019)
Going by straight points, out of Nikola Jokic’s 25 career triple-doubles, this one is the second-worst. A year ago, he put up an 11/16/11 line, so that one’s the worst as of right now, although I don’t doubt that at some point in his lengthy NBA career that he will score just ten points while…
Read MoreNikola Jokic 31 Points/9 Assists Full HIghlights (2/1/2019)
It’s official: for the first time in his career, Nikola Jokic is an All-Star. I’m a little peeved about the dunk contest snub (get it, because he hardly ever dunks even though he’s seven feet tall LMAO!!!!!!), but I’m excited that he’ll get to be the antithesis of All-Star-Game-type basketball during the game itself. I…

When Chris Marlowe mentioned Nikola Jokic’s average statline for the month of January, I was caught off guard by how total his domination has been: 25 points, 12 rebounds, and 8 assists per game. Those are MVP-esque numbers, if we’re being honest with ourselves. Nuggets fans (and Serbs) have been trying to turn the two-man…
Read MoreNikola Jokic 24 Points/1 Game-Winner Full Highlights (1/28/2019)
Calling Nikola Jokic’s hook shot with 28 seconds left in the game a “game-winner” is stretching my credibility a little thin, but you know what? It was kind of a game-winner in the sense that it put the Nuggets in the lead for good. Also, if I put the words “game-winner” in the title of…
