Mike Singer's excellent new Jokic book is an excellent companion to your first paragraph. Jokic is sneaky an all time grinder who just doesn't have the patience for what he views as pointless basketball activity. As long as stuff is purpose driven, he's giving 120%. And he's competitive as hell. Totally makes sense him and Russ get along. Yeah, he likes home. Who doesn't?

The attention goes to Jimmy Butler and Pat Riley passive/ aggressive-ing each other, or the deals to be made from Utah's decision to tank.Thats the news.

But Jokich and Russ? That's the music, the beautiful game. Two really different guys from halfway around the world putting in work at playing basketball together. It's spreading to the entire team. The Nuggets are about be on one.
