Nikola Jokic is not at all happy with his teammates. Infact, he is furious. And he has enough reasons to be so. The Denver Nuggets were one of the teams to watch out for this season. Coming into the NBA playoffs, the Nuggets were the favorites against the LA Clippers. However, with the Game 2 and 3 gone, things have taken a dark turn. Losing 83-117 in Game 3, Nuggets handed over a crucial 2-1 lead to the Clippers. And with things going haywire, Jokic could be seen bursting out.
In a recently surfaced video on social media, Nikola Jokic could be seen interacting with his teammates. But the animated manner in which he was talking did not look like the NBA star was exchanging pleasantries. Now, while Jokic is almost certain to win or finish second in the NBA MVP race, such a result is quite frustrating.

Although the Nuggets do have time to claw their way back, things are looking quite grim. Now then, in the past two games, the Clippers and the Nuggets had some quite intense matchups. Unfortunately, all of that fizzled out in Game 3. With the Nuggets faltering throughout the game, the onus is now on Jokic to bail them out of the mess.

Now, while a lot of pondering has been done on how to stop Jokic, Bogdan Bogdanovic had an interesting take. With the playoffs coming in, Bogdanovic stated that Jokic cannot be stopped.
“We can’t focus on one [guy]. Some players that are great like that, there’s no tricks to stop them. You gotta use multiple efforts,” said Bogdanovic.

Bogdan Bogdanovic on facing Team Serbia teammate Nikola Jokic in Clippers-Nuggets series:

“They're a great team. Yeah, he makes them better, but he needs the rest of his teammates as well. Knowing the game of basketball, it's 5-on-5 at the end of the day. We'll have to all lock… pic.twitter.com/b796J23xUn
Surely, it looks like Bogdanovic had given a little too much credit to Jokic. As of now, even the ‘unstoppable’ Serbian is finding it difficult to find a way out for his team. Thus, with the situation getting complicated it remains to be seen how things pan out in the future.
