[DNVR Nuggets] “I don’t want to leave Denver… If Luka gets pissed off in Dallas, he can come.” – Nikola Jokic



Jokic has a surprisingly direct answer when he was asked if he was willing to play with Luka sometime in the future. Instead of denying it, it seems like he has extended an open invitation to Luka to come to Denver. I wouldn’t be shocked if this gets seen by the NBA league office as tampering. What do you guys think about his answer?

    Oh if Luka gets mad at Dallas, I can guarantee he’s playing in a rocky mountain state, probably the mountain state not named Colorado

    Strangely averse to the franchise that has a big horse roaming the stadium

    LMAO!!

    am i the only one that thinks this might be a bad fit

    draymond got fined for saying booker needed to leave phoenix on inside the nba, that was a lot more aggressive than this

  6. Unfortunately for Mavs fans, looks like the horse logo means nothing to Jokic.

    And honestly, he had a point on the organization part. Mavs have a lot of baggage with Cuban…

    I know it would never happen but if Jokic was traded to LA or NY I honestly think he’d say fuck it and retire. Denver is about as perfect a market for him as possible.

  8. Well I’m hoping he changes his mind. But it’d be years down the road I think.

    It’ll take MPJ, Murray and a ton of picks to land Luka they might even want Gordon.

    luka and jokic on the same team would break the NBA

  11. hopefully this happens, its doesnt have to be now. I just want to see a season with them together. it would be so fun.

    Guy please stop talking about luka leaving its all i have:,(

  13. The bromance is real. This couple are not hiding anymore.

    If I’m Dallas I will not piss off Luka.

    I would love it so much if Jokic’s gravity could pull in some superstar FAs to Denver. It’d be cool to see some of the spotlight shift from California and Texas teams

    That would be the greatest passing duo in history.

    What has been the best pairing so far? Bird and McHale?

    If Luka and jokic teamed up and rattled off 3 titles in 5 or 6 years, the nba purist would melt down. It would be glorious

  17. LavenderAutist

    This isn’t tampering

    It was a direct question about playing with Luka

    All Jokic said was that if Luka wants to play with Jokic, he would have to come to Denver because Jokic doesn’t want to leave
