Nikola Jokic reacts to Game 7 loss vs Timberwolves and being eliminated

do we hear a lot about how hard it is to repeat in the NBA I know it just happened for you guys but now that you’ve tried to do it um do you have any thoughts on what makes it so difficult to to do it back to back I mean I don’t know uh we didn’t accomplish that so I mean I don’t know it’s hard because the teams are more hungrier U Better talented uh than last year probably everybody get better everybody wants to beat us probably uh that’s my thought process probably Nicole obviously you guys went up pretty early in that third quarter and Lead ultimately dissipated just what happened in in the second half from your perspective I mean they were scoring they they they had a lot of offensive rebounds we we could to make shot even I think we had a lot a lot of open looks um wide open looks uh but that’s that’s what happens you know sometimes you make shots sometimes you miss shots and uh today I think we didn’t miss shots I think we miss a lot of good shots but you know that’s um not just on us they they played some good defense that’s why the number one defense in the NBA some of your teammates were just saying what makes us even more painful is the fact that you know it wasn’t a sweep they felt you were the better team and there’s so much talent on this team that they thought this was the team that could Pete is that what makes it with you perhaps sting more because of the talent on this team you know I don’t believe in that I believe in that I think the team humans is better team so you have a seven game so over best of seven so if someone beats you I think they’re the better team uh congrats to them like we we did we have a chances of course we did but uh and someone beats you I mean they’re just better Nia what will it take for you guys to get back to winning a championship again I mean some teams never been the championship again so uh I’m just glad that we had opportunity this year and we were we were in the in the horse racing speech we were in the microphone you know they were telling our names uh so we will see you know getting better uh Personnel wise getting better team wise getting better better coaching wise like you need to be especially right now what how many talented is league in the league is you just need to you just need to be basically perfect to win a championship Nicole kind of on that note what do you feel like you guys need more of or needed more of in order to win this series I mean we needed to make shots I mean I’m as a A3 is uh where is the where I am oh I miss eight thre Jamal Miss eight Mike Miss five we were shooting 8 for 24 in today’s a basketball Air B C basketball is going without making any threes basically you can KN win win the game um of course it’s a tough it’s a game seven uh you don’t make a lot of shots they didn’t make either one they made they were shooting 39% from the free from the field so but you know I think if you want to win you need to make shots Nicole I know it’s early on in the process but I was just wondering if you had any thoughts on the Serbian national team in the Olympics this summer I really I don’t know my friend we will see I need to think about it uh Nicole you mentioned sort of the rebounding stuff like that that that flipped in the second half of this game you guys had kind of dominated that in some of the hustle stats in the first half does when that flips so dramatically does does fatigue or exhaustion kind of play a part in the way it can go in second I mean it didn’t play for them so I don’t think I don’t think that you know sometimes you don’t box out sometimes it’s a luy bounce sometimes it’s a they want it more sometimes we want it more so I think that’s why basketball is great you you never know what’s going to happen ni does it hurt anym that it ended on the home floor and that you guys I don’t know struggled a little bit at home in this series uh I mean yes of course I mean you don’t want to lose in front of your fans but uh they were so so good to us so uh we were fighting we gave all our all best our all best so hopefully they’re going to appreciate it or not we will see next year Nichola do you look at this Timberwolves team as a as as a team that could become a rival of of you guys in the future I mean yes I mean I think they’re buil to build to beat us in someone and just look at their roster they have basically two All Stars two uh probably first defensive players in the year Mike onlyy who is the most underrated player in in the NBA probably I mean I love the guy he’s so good and he know he always makes the right right even he didn’t he didn’t shoot that well this uh this SE this uh what’s the name series this game you know in one moment he was the leading rebounder in in the game for them so you know it’s um and they From the Bench they have a six player of the year they have a Kyle and and Walker who who was uh really good for them so one one team that he they can do little little literally everything they can be big small so anything else all right thank you to call Pleasure callers my friend
