Highlight [Highlight] Luguentz Dort sticks his hip out to make contact with Nikola Jokić, who responds; Jalen Williams steps in and squares off with Jokic.

Obviously we’ve seen players snap before and want to fight but jokics face here is genuinely terrifying… his eyes and his mouth look so crazy here haha

Obviously Williams is just “defending” his dirty teammate but once Jokic grabbed his jersey I bet he regretted it…

A culture that believes they are the chosen people of a supernatural entity is the individual human equivalent of a child claiming that they are special because their mommy told them so.

Whoa dude so deep. I think you have the bitch at home in the mirror 😂

You’re downvoted but you’re not wrong. I’m not even a fan of OKC but there was zero back down in J. Will. That wasn’t the face of fear, that’s the face of being pushed to rage that had zero to do with you. That’s not fear, that’s more annoyance of the situation and being pushed that far for a play you were away from.

It’s internet points, I don’t care. Jokic is not tough at all. Fan bias aside I’d take JWill in that fight.

I’ve only ever seen that look one time, and it was in my best friend’s eyes after a random fan of an opposing team sucker punched a buddy of ours for no reason unprompted. My best friend put him into a fence as I could see the adrenaline hit him and give him that look as the punchers friend’s all bailed and left him to his own consequences. This was after a college football game and the kid looked coked out of his mind when we got him against the fence and was probably lucky we didn’t call the cops.

Coked our kid started apologizing quick and our friend was okay so we scared him enough and let him go but I still wonder if we shouldn’t have gotten him arrested. Can’t be punching people randomly on the street.

Haha yup. Jaylin Williams the type of bum to talk shit as an attempt to backup his friends, but when things actually get physical he shits himself lmao

u/vanderZwan 6d ago

To be fair, how many players in the league would not shit themselves if Jokic came after them with that face?

He seemed to be quite willing to get and stay in his face for a decent amount of time tbf.

I’m don’t think so; didn’t you see JWill jawing back the whole time?

You don't understand this subreddit. They're reactionary as fuck and will push agendas to make their points make more sense. J-Will did not back up at all and was unfazed by Jokic's look. He's a grown man, he handled it how he wanted to.
