Recently, Nuggets new players Hardaway Jr. and Cameron Johnson both participated in the "The Young Man And The Three", and both talked about the part that excited them the most when playing with Jokic.

Huang Zhong said: "A big part is that he doesn't have to be against him anymore because he's a big trouble on the court. He can pass, grab rebounds, and score points. You know what I mean, you don't know what mode he is in on that day. He has incredible abilities, his feelings about the game, his understanding of the game, his way of playing is different, which makes him one of the best players in the league and one of the best players in history.

"From a purely data perspective, his output in recent years is something you can't reach, and he didn't do it by chance, he's just that great, so Hardaway and I enjoy playing with these high-level players, cutting, finding open spaces, making the right decisions, playing with such players is simple.

"It's just simple, understand all the teammates on the court, and they will make the right choice. I think this is also the team style that management wants to build. During my years in the league, they also played like this most of the time, and they are good at playing this way."

Hardaway said: "Don't force it to do something so much. For us, we will play hard next, we will defend our opponents, get some easy points, and we will work together happily."
