NBA Star Makes Hilarious Statement About Nikola Jokic
In today's NBA landscape, many former NBA players become coaches. When looking at the current list of players, there are few that could clearly become great coaches, Chris Paul would be a great example. When it comes to Nikola Jokic, CJ McCollum doesn't believe Jokic could ever be a coach.
On the newest episode of the CJ McCollum Show, he and Cassidy Hubbarth had a spirited back-and-forth about why Jokic could never become a coach. CJ's simple answer - it's because Jokic doesn't watch any basketball.
"Joker would never be a coach. Doesn't watch basketball at all. Can't imagine him watching film, like on an off-day to watch film...it's interesting to see his name on this list. It's like, can you be a good coach if you don't watch film? He's a basketball savant.".
McCollum meant his comments obviously in a very joking way. However, it's very clear Nikola Jokic isn't the type of NBA player who's obsessed about basketball like other players are. There's a reason why he likes to disappear to Serbia for the entire offseason the moment the season ends. However, despite all of that, Nikola Jokic is an absolute basketball genius. There are very few players in the NBA who can look at the game the way he can, and there's a reason why he's the best player in the NBA today.
