Nikola Jokić Full Post Game Press Conference vs. 76ers 🎙

Hello guys Nicole I know this matchup was buil as a game between you and Joel U what kind of went through your mind when you first heard the news and just U how do you how do you feel like the team kind of responded to that I mean I don’t know

Uh I mean I think the they they they have a really good professional players and they uh maybe it looks on the paper that’s supposed to be easy game but we know there is no easy games for us uh uh we were fighting they were fighting it was an interesting

Game and I’m just glad that we won in the end Coach bone said he he felt there was a let down because of it did you feel that too in the beginning I mean I not on my personal side we’ve heard you say before that your preparation for each game starts

The day before the game you’re looking at who you might match up with um how did how did you adjust on the flight to Paul re instead of whoever else uh yes uh but you know even even if D play we we were probably Cross Match

Like uh like we did in Philly so you know you just need to have a game plans in your head like the couple plays that they run and the tendency of the players so I mean uh but I think we we do need to talk about J B not just because he

Didn’t play because I think Paul Reed played really really good for them and uh we need to give him credit he he he was fighting there he he he attacked the glass he he shot the ball really well so I mean I don’t want to say that I think

He needs to deserve in this moment more time than D Nicole how was how did you feel like your eye was is it completely better did you feel likeis was affected the last couple days a little bit but it’s it’s good I think it’s going in the right direction

Nico this game was built as a as a Rivals rivalry week game uh mostly because of the match up between you and Joel I just do you like games like not not as you specific I mean to be honest Media made the Rivalry I think I don’t I

Don’t have nothing against him and I think he’s a great player like I said in the in the interview even if you’re basketball soccer horse racing fan whatever Denver Nuggets fan Philadelphia fan whoever like enemies whatever I think you need to respect what he’s doing and uh uh he’s putting the history

Right now in in front of our our eyes and uh he’s making it uh he’s making it look so easy do you view any other players as a rival no I think I’m playing against the team not not the person not the person not the player in front

Of so I’m playing against the team would you say that the team as a as a whole has a rival like if you had to pick a team in the NBA I don’t think so that we have rival to be honest Nico do you do you think that

Defenses have a fair shot at guarding the elite offenses in the league today with the way the game is called and the way the game is played uh I mean yes know you always have a good good good uh good defensive player um in every team and uh like in our team

We have a kcp we have ad who can guard multiple positions you know but I think at the end of day I think offense is going to still uh have that little Edge just because I’m going to say defense react to offense you know so uh but yes

There is a lot of Defense great defensive players uh and uh the guys like Dr I think you need to stop as a team not as a one player do you think there’s do you think there’s some there’s been some argument with all these guys scoring 60 70 not

Just Joel but there’s been I think four 60 point games this week there’s a lot of games 130s 140s every night like that maybe there’s too much offense and there should be a little more of a chance for defenses to to to have a Level Playing

Field do you think that that’s the case or does it just sort of the way the game is involved I think the players are extremely talented and uh there is a such so talent in the league right now that uh there is a bunch of guys that you cannot stop one-onone and

Uh I mean that’s just my opinion I think the the game involves so much and uh the players are getting better and better like right now like if you leave one guy open it’s basically automatic shot you know so automatic basket so I think we need to enjoy in in

The what we’re rcing not trying to put that down like put like put the like Lucas game yester I don’t think we need to uh make it look bad I think we need to embrace it and just enjoy the moment I think sorry so I’m good thank you appreciate
