I think we have confused Jokic's distaste for what goes into the NBA media content machine with a distaste for basketball.
Buckle up, that will be the narrative around him this year. Each year there has to be a new angle to attack the guy from, despite him never doing anything to warrant it (the discourse around his 3rd mvp last year was horrific and xenophobic). Jokic loves ball, is obsessed to a degree but has also developed a healthy separation between NBA "work" and personal life. This will get misconstrued over and over, used to attack him and honestly it's gross to watch and just furthers the point he's better off just doing what he's doing.
Huh? I thought he was MVP too but I somehow missed all the horrors.
