Paul Pierce had nothing but praise for Nikola Jokic, even going so far as to place him on the same level as Michael Jordan.
The former Boston Celtics star highlighted the Serbian big man as someone who is only missing championships to enter the conversation with Jordan.
,,When you look at Jokic’s numbers, not counting the titles, you could say he’s better than LeBron, Curry, and Durant combined. Those three are the foundation of this generation, but Jokic’s path over the last four years might be even better than theirs.
The only thing he’s missing is rings, and the only one he can be compared to is Jordan” – Paul Pierce said.
Nikola Jokic will try to lead the Denver Nuggets to a Western Conference Finals appearance tonight at 9:30 PM.
