Nikola Jokić bluntly says Nuggets are 'far away' from a title: 'If we were in Serbia, we would all get fired'
Nikola Jokić believes there's a lot of work to do in Denver.
A frustrating playoff series finally came to end for Nikola Jokić and the Denver Nuggets on Thursday. Despite the Minnesota Timberwolves being extremely short-handed, the team still managed to eliminate the Nuggets from the playoffs with a 110-98 win . Jokić, in particular, appeared irked during the series, getting involved in multiple scuffles with Timberwolves players over the six games.
Following the team’s Game 6 loss Thursday, Jokić let some of that frustration out, bluntly saying the Nuggets are “far away” from winning another championship. When asked whether the team needed to make any changes, Jokić said that wasn’t his decision to make before adding, “If we were in Serbia, we would all get fired. ” Nikola Jokic: “We just lost in the first round.
I think we are far away. ” Changes needed? “That’s not my decision.
Definitely, if we were in Serbia, we would all be fired. ” pic. twitter.
