Aaron Gordon was basically built in a lab to play with Jokic. They are so perfect together I hope AG stays healthy

[u/MySilverBurrito → u/soycameron]

Aaron Gordon and GP2 for the Warriors really revitalised how the dunker's spot got used.

[u/MaskedBirder → u/soycameron]

They're genuinely so fun to watch. The dunks, the passes, the threes. Their synergy is amazing.

[u/darti_me → u/soycameron]

Prime Danny Green would be INSANE with Jokic.

[u/Gristle__McThornbody → u/soycameron]

The way AG is built you couldn't tell he can jump out of the building. He looks like someone that has the hops of Hachimura.

[u/EndSlidingArea → u/soycameron]

It really does yield some fantastic ball. Perfectly complimentary skillsets

[u/ColdCocking → u/soycameron]

A healthy AG would've resulted in a 3-peat for Jokic

[u/internallylinked]

It’s so annoying that we get lost in ridiculous narratives and comparisons instead of just enjoying and talking about how awesome these dudes are

[u/MaskedBirder → u/internallylinked]

Yep, when these players retire people will regret not appreciating them more

[u/origin29 → u/internallylinked]

Hey thats what no basketball does to a motherfucker

[u/Betaateb → u/internallylinked]

Ya, but my guy....

[u/BeneficialFinger]

I'm so happy to watch Jokic play for the Nuggets again

[u/TheWestRemembers]

Y'all are not ready for DPOY Jokic

[u/Abject_Bank_9103]

Jokic does look leaner

[u/patient33 → u/Abject_Bank_9103]

So does AG.

[u/Abject_Bank_9103 → u/patient33]

Good.. his body clearly couldn't handle his previous physique

[u/patient33 → u/Abject_Bank_9103]

Agree 100%.

[u/funkchi_dev]

Darryn Peterson getting a full load of Jokic in his first preseason game

[u/RarerCandy → u/funkchi_dev]

Pause.

[u/Cletus_Starfish]

Didn’t realize how much I missed watching Jokic until seeing a couple of these highlights from today, god damn.

[u/PlasticSprinkles4677]

That doesn’t look like a preseason game

[u/HealthyCheesecake643]

He is just so fun to watch. The gravity he has as a scorer, the look to the wing to shake the weakside help and then the perfect pass. He controls every possession in a way that very few players have ever managed. 

[u/hoochtag]

I’ve seen enough, give him the MVP

[u/Glowwerms]

Holy shit

[u/RiloAlDente]

Did noone post the behind the back pass? The commentator talked about it but I missed it.

[u/Supermoose7178]

i love this man

[u/redwingz11]

I think because he looks on the corner, Gordon's defender slide out to make the pass possible. Jokic attract 3 people to contest then move one out of the way with trickery to make the pass possible, holy shit

[u/Onepopcornman]

I don't understand the smaller guys trying to get too physical with Jok. It inevitably pisses him off and Jokic tends to play better when pissed off.

[u/GfunkWarrior28]

Markannen should have done a reverse.

[u/terran_wraith]

Not to overreact but that's my DPOY & MVP
