"He's too damn good. It's not fair all the things he can do. It's kind of Larry Bird-ish in a way," Spurs coach Gregg Popovich as he praised Nikola Jokic after the win over the Suns.
"He's not going fast. He's not jumping high. It's kind of Larry Bird-ish...great hands, scores every which way. Involves all of his teammates. Probably the best passing big man we've seen in a very long time."
"Jokic was just great. He was too much for us... He's a real spectacular, interesting, different player. He's like a 7ft Larry Bird type guy. The way he can pass, the way he can read things, it's incredible."
