Nikola Jokic SHOCKINGLY ADMITS he doesn’t like basketball after championship triumph

Nikola Jokic has successfully led the Denver Nuggets to their first-ever championship. The Joker also bagged the FMVP award with a historic performance throughout the post-season. Now it shouldn’t be hard for anyone to accept him as the best player on the planet. And, what’s hard is to hate your job when you are the best one doing it. But somehow Nikola Jokic doesn’t really like basketball.

After clowning the Miami Heat with a gentleman’s sweep, Nikola Jokic wasn’t hyped up about being a champion. He was just acting normal like he always does and that’s what makes him a one of a kind of superstar in the league. But that’s just not the end as Jokic later in the presser even admitted to hating playing basketball after being stressed out about the Parade schedule.

Nikola Jokic wasn’t happy about the Parade being on Thursday as he wanted to go home. He just wanted to be back in his hometown and unexpectedly was in no mood to celebrate. Further, talking about winning and shocking everyone with the reply, Joker added:

We succeeded in our jobs and we won the whole thing. It’s an amazing feeling. But like I said before, it’s not everything in the world. ... There is a bunch of things that I like to do. Probably that’s a normal thing. Nobody likes his job, or maybe they do. They’re lying. But it’s a good feeling.
Nikola Jokic said

With that response, it’s safe to say that the man doesn’t care. Jokic also proved a take of Patrick Beverley right. He’s one of the 50% of players in the league who don’t love to play basketball. He’s just excited about winning it all which now sets him free to be back at his place and he’s barely looking forward to having a great time at the Parade. Jokic has his priorities set.

FMVP Nikola Jokic wants Denver Nuggets’ president Josh Kroenke to give him a plane

Nikola Jokic is excited to go back to his hometown. A big reason behind it is the horseracing event he has on Sunday. But with the championship parade being on Thursday it’s going to be hard for him to reach back there on time.

Talking with the Finals crew, Nikola Jokic said:

I need to get back home. On Sundays, I have my horse racing... Maybe I don’t how I am gonna arrive. Thursday parade. Friday maybe.

Further, coming up with a brilliant idea to reach in time, Nikola Jokic said:

I am gonna ask Josh to give me a plane... I put him under the pressure, and yes I did. I don’t feel bad at all.
Nikola Jokic added

Now with a long summer ahead, the only thing FMVP Jokic is going to be worried about will be horse racing. He’ll also be happy as he gets more time to spend with his family.
