Nuggets and Clippers are tied 1-1 in the first round of the NBA playoffs,

0:04.0

but does Nikola Yokic need to become more aggressive?

0:07.0

He's averaging a triple double right now, 27 points, 10 rebounds 11 assists.

0:11.0

The numbers are good, but it does feel a little bit like he's not being fully aggressive.

0:15.0

I've got the DMVR Nuggets crew here.

0:17.0

Our Serbian correspondent Miroslav, the man with the wind in his hair,

0:21.0

Harrison Wind. So that's the question, Wind. Do you, when you watch this, do you feel like Yoke

0:25.3

is not being as aggressive as he needs to be? I mean, I hate to doubt Yokic in anything in life

0:31.9

where yoke could be more aggressive is actually from three i was actually actually thinking about it. He turns down a lot of threes.

1:12.9

I know he likes to work the possession, and I know he likes to work the clock and get a great shot.

1:17.5

But a great shot is a Yokic's three.

1:19.3

Is it not?

1:20.6

I feel like the Nuggets have made it a point of emphasize not to use Joker too much in these first two games, which is

1:29.0

kind of weird, comparing to what they've been doing all season under Michael Malone.

1:33.9

All decade.

1:34.8

All decade, really.

1:36.1

Yeah, but especially like last couple of seasons.
