translation of the full serbian interaction in the end:
miroslav ćuk: nikola. (nikola: oh hi!! *he heard the serbian*) the lakers won a championship only 3 and a half years ago, and you just beat them for the 10th time in a row. do you have a certain way to take these moments in, while the team is capable of winning even the games that go completely south at first?
jokić: of course, i think we're in a great stretch where we beat them 10 times in a row but i think every game is... (pauses thought) this game today, we were losing by 20 at one point and it could have been very bad for us, but yeah. we always somehow find a way, we believe in one another and i think that shows on the court. and at the end of the day, when he (jamal) got that shot in, everybody jumped, of course it's the playoffs and all that but i think we were all happy for him that he scored.
miroslav ćuk: you're trying to live in the moment.
jokić: yes. absolutely. you have to, because tomorrow is a new day, and you forget (today) already, so you have to enjoy the moment.
Thank you! Btw Miroslav Cuk is in the USA for the first time and is active on twitter with his colleagues from DNVR showing him around USA finest (Danny's, Illegal Petes, Gatorade), its fun!
Thank you!
Thanks you
Awesome!
i love how Nikola's eyes sparked when he heard Serbian
Easily the best player on the planet. You dont win 3 mvps in 4 years by accident.
And he probably should have won last year too
Could have been 4 straight it not of the narratives that Perk started
Yup
@@chillax9184 ESPN gave him the job on the incentive that he start that narrative
In all fairness, he wouldn't have won this year if Embiid didn't go down so 3 MVPs is about right
i love how surprised and happy he was to hear the serbian question. hvala miroslavu.
Translate for us!

@@forg_tful.thank you so much! You are forever appreciated
i like how he lit up when he heard his native language!
Ceniš i poštuješ tudje -(Vaše, američko) ali najviše voliš svoje srpsko. Ljubav prema domovini je najjača.
uvijek je lijepo naletit na nase u inostranstvu, bili Srbi ili drugi Jugoslaveni.
Jokic is legit Top 10 greatest players of all time.. an unstoppable force of nature.
If he wins the Chip this season it will be hard to argue against him being top 10 of all time. Definitely top 15-20 as we speak today.
Yall mfs don’t know too 10 greatest players of all time and it’s clearly showing 🤣🤣🤣
@@lordpepsi7021 name 10 players better than Jokic
@@aliasone9827 Lebron, Jordan, Kareem, Magic, Larry Bird, Bill Russel, Wilt, Steph, Duncan, Kobe. Thats just 10 in a random order. I could name more if I wanted to
Joking is better than Steph, Kobe and Larry right now. What’s he’s doing with that team is incredible.
MVP, MVP, MVP... Jokic
Great game by Jokic his dominance continues. Glad to witness it.
We ll see about that. One game is enough to get into his head and lose his cool.
@@M.B.1001 givin him his props. I still think lakers aren’t done
Now I can't unsee GRU. 😂
😂
Jokic’s attitude is so awesome. He treats the game of basketball as a profession, treats his teammates like family, and also has fun on the court. He knows he is playing a game and making millions but also realizes people like doctors, nurses, and teachers are the real heroes.
I like how he perks up when hearing his native language.
This man is best player in the league and should be MVP this year 🔥
I cant be the only one who likes Joker's swag😂he puts it on with these suits
I love the way he talks it’s very calming
27pts 10 assist 20 rebounds 😤😤
2:22 Jokic eyes lit up 😂
The quintessential humble champion, it's not only his great play, but the person he is that makes Nikola Jokic so special.

This guy is good at basketball
Layup king
Best
My goat
Not only he’s the best player, but I gotta admit, he has great clothing style.
Basic
Gordan and Porter jr is the main guys they make the team great!
Jamal Murray, KCP too 😂
I totally feel you....but if you think about it...KCP is just as important to that unit as well. He should be 1st team all defense this year.
Ajde Nikola☦️🇷🇸❗️💪❤️
Slavic man style! Thank you for showing his more relaxed, easy style of speaking with the Serbian. I'll be showing this in my classes on multilingualism for teachers. A person is always more at ease in their mother tongue.
Porter Jr. Is the x-factor
He had a good game. He was also unplayable against miami last year. Still inconsistent like murray.
I love this team so much
Bravo Nikola voli te tvoj Sombor ❤❤❤
I liked to she SGA win Mvp but this Dude made me fall in love again with Basketball.
That boy be dominating American basketball!
With the nuggets! My goodness!!
“What’s it like, making Grandpa James cry?”
He’ll retire straight into daycare
16 more rings to catch up with us buddy
Yeah Nuggets took their heart out at the end and you’re not funny 😕
@@YvngGoat_He said Grandpa James not the Lakers
@@Maxrepfitgmstill 3 then ..😂
Ok so who has the translation for the last Serbian question?
The guy said that Lakers won the chip few seasons ago, but now they have beaten them 10x in row. He asked how does he feel about it. Nothing special. It was kind of stupid question. More like a statement.
Full translate:
Question?The Lakers were champions in the last 3 years but you guys got them in the last 10 games in a row. Do you have something to cope with these moments, when your team is winning games like this one that go totally wrong at one point..
Answer: Its amazing stretch that we were able to win 10 games in a row. What Joke wanted to say im gonna try to write the best as i can here 🤣 Any game could have gone bad for us but we somehow always find a way and trust each other and I think it shows on the court. In the end when he (Jamal) got that shot we all jumped, we were happy also because him he got that one.
Question: You try to live in the moment?
Joke: You must, tomorrow is a new day and you forget about this one 🤣
@@ivanpetrusic5733thanks but what was Jokic response?
Q: Nikola, Lakers were champions only three and a half years ago, and now you won 10 in a row against them. Do you have a way to take in these moments, when a team is capable to win even the games that starts bad?
A: Of course, we had a great stretch where we won 10 times in a row. Even today, we were losing by 20, and it could turn out to be very bad for us. But we always find a way, and we always trust each other, and we showed it on the court. And even in the end when he (Jamal) scored the shot, everyone jumped. Of course it is playoff, but everyone was happy for him when he scored.
Q: You are trying to live in the moment completely?
A: Yes! You need to! Tomorrow is another day and you forget already, so you need to enjoy the moment.
Rough translation
- Nikola, LAL were champs three years ago, and now you beat them 10 times in a row, do you have a way to absorb this moment of your team still being able to win this games that go the opposite way?
- We have a great stretch were we beat them 10 times in a row. But i think that every game....*(prob wanted to say can go the other way)*for example this game where we were trailing 20 points in one moment so it could've been really bad for us. But we always find a way, we have a trust in eachother and it can be seen on the court. And in the end when Murray hit that shoot, everybody jumped, and yea it's playoffs, but we were all happy because of him.
- Do you try to live fully in a moment?
- Yes, you have to. Because tommorow is the new day, so moment is passed and you forget it, so you need to enjoy the moments.
Dude is one of the greatest players I’ve ever seen
The MVP
A bad denver beat lakers i cant imagine when they can do when they are doing good
Lakers up 15 BOTH games in denver. What will happen in LA? Denver fans going to travel and watch the games in LA? Can't afford those laker tickets lol
@@soccerplyr8 See last year in LA.
@@soccerplyr8wonder what will be the cope after they blow another lead and it’s 3-0 lmao
Good luck in LA. see you back in denver
Mvp and 🐐
Referee and replay center MVP …
2:20 Nikola's reaction when a fellow Serbian pronounced his name right was so wholesome
Jokic is the best player in the world !
let's put the game aside and appreciate the drip, sheesh man
Gru with the Triple Double 🌑💯
Bolje je intervju na srpskom...
It’s insane how he really didn’t have that good of a game, missed a lot of shots but still got a 20 20 10 game
The GOAT
His post move plus and one on AD that drew the fifth foul late in the fourth was as good as it gets. Until Murray's game winner of course.
While listening to Jokic speak Serbian, I think I heard momentum and playoffs.😂
Yeah some words just trickle over and become universal, but he said “u momentu” at the end, meaning in the moment. Try watching some UFC commentary in Serbian, you’ll hear a bunch of overlap for various strikes and grappling positions!
I heard "stretch". Woo hoo!
Joker how more triple doubles in the playoffs than all the other guys with them combined
He was happy to finally to talk in his own dialect
Modesty is not for everyone. It suits only those who have reason to be immodest." (Duško Radović)
the evolution of greg oystertag
Jokić had a mediocre game for him only 27 20 and 10
If the Nuggets win a second championship in a row, after Joker winning MVP 3/4 years, that top 10 ever conversation, potentially moving towards top 5, is going to get real hot
Maybe top 15 but we can’t disrespect the other legends on the top 10 list, as of right now he is a top 20 player ever for sure
his more excited hearing a serbian reporter than winning a game 2 😂😂😂
O see people praising more jokic than Jamal, if it wasn't because of Jamal Murray nuggets wouldn't have won this game. Let's respect Jamal dudes.
Jamal Murray is The Best perimeter player in the league come playoffs
Only the Celtics have a chance at stopping Denver this year
I feel like Minnesota have a better chance. Feels like they're built tough. Celtics are good team but they don't have the toughness and grind Minnesota have.
@@madhatter113 yeah, TWolves looking legit.
Not at all
@@kjthomas4553 we’ll see 😊
we're doubting OKC just because they're inexperienced, and as much as I think experience is a big factor, I still think they are a dangerous team, kind of like the Nuggets were in the bubble, still not at their full potential but really really good. TWolves are a legit team and could easily figure things out and win the chip this year. I have little faith that the Celtics will do well when they face whichever team wins West this year.
Activate winter solider when he heard it in Serbian
jokic 25 pts, 20 rebs ,10 assists x4. entire history of the nba x4.
Denver nuggets are for real 😅😅😅😅😅
Im a laker fan (roast away) and yes jokic is great but y’all have to admit Jamal Murray carried down the stretch. Ad was locking jokic up and Jamal Murray was just hitting tough shots. If they win a chip this year I feel like Jamal’s a borderline hofer and he still has no all star selections
at one moment bum murray had 4/17 FG
kcp had 29%FG
those are bum stats
Refreshing to the an nba player that dresses like an adult instead.
this has to be a discouraging loss for the lakers. the whole game it looked like they couldn't miss, while denver's shooters were all having an off night, only to come back from a 20 point deficit and win on a buzzer beater against your hailed "best defender in the NBA". like, it couldnt have gone better for the lakers all game, and they still lose.
entendi tudo 😂
Uživam ga gledati , slušati odmjerene izjave ... Ukratko -krasan dečko
should be 4 MVPs in a row but race hustler perkins had to muddy the waters. envy is an ugly trait.
KCP with 6 points and murray with 30%FG and the lakers lost? looooool
fouls everytime someone comes in the paint… don’t call it cause playoffs “physicality” is what it is
Jokic 20 rebounds? Much much..
Apparently I heard he is the worst MVP in 40 years 😂😂😂😂😂😂
He about sweep No2 and a another member of the NBA 75 team again in Lebron and AD😂😂😂😂
TRULY GENERATIONAL
Lakers in 6. Also lebron is damn near 40. Think about 26 year old LeBron would do to the nuggets. Wouldn't be close.
@@soccerplyr8But he's not 26, Nuggets in 5.
@@kennn30clearly he’s not 26.. he was saying if he was it would be a totally different story here.. Bron is damn near 40 correct and these games are still close.. now as he said imagine LeBron was 26!! lol smh
@@Bktheanswer I know that, but they also said Lakers in 6 to insinuate they still have a chance when they don't. Nuggets aren't losing 4 straight
he is rich and can afford an interpreter
He made AD look like a little boy. AD just getting rammed down low.
this loss of lakers is on lakers coach. He did not use his challenges ????
he was not involved actively with the team when denver was making a run ???
he is below average coach 😔😔
this loss is on him.
🎉
He stole the Lakers.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
For Europe and all of Western civilization!
🇷🇸🇷🇸🇷🇸
Joker for life
Way better than lebron
добрэ
Dropping first comment
Mvp
FNJ
😐
Jokic is great but AD was cooking him
hahahaha.. 20 rebounds 27 points 10 ast is at 56% FG is getting cooked.. wth is happening hahahaha
AD had a monster half, and I was actually happy for him. But F the Lakers, baby!
Where was AD in the 4th when the lakers needed him the most?
yeah based on this game's stats, if AD wasn't cooking jokic would be getting 50-30-20
lakers in 6
