| 0:00.0 | I've got the privilege of talking a little Nuggets basketball with Tim Legler. Tim, appreciate you making the time. The Nuggets aren't an interesting spot in their season. Nikola Yokic has been in some headlines about how he reacts to the whistle, not necessarily playing his best basketball. What have you seen from Yokic? And I can't believe I'm asking this, Tim, but are you concerned at all with his level of play? |
| 0:23.5 | I'm not. |
| 0:24.1 | I'm not. |
| 0:24.8 | Look, here's the thing. |
| 0:26.0 | I'm located outside Denver. |
| 0:28.2 | So I understand. |
| 0:29.1 | Like, my perspective might be a little bit different. |
| 0:32.0 | I think people in Denver, they love this team. |
| 0:34.8 | They want to win another championship. |
| 0:37.0 | And I think sometimes they overreact a little bit to some of these things. |
| 0:41.0 | I'm not worried about Yoko Jit. |
| 0:42.3 | Now the whistle stuff a little bit. |
| 0:45.0 | And I think in general it's more or less about like complaining about the whistle as much as it is. |
| 0:51.1 | Sometimes some of these theatrics he gets involved in with with other players |
| 0:55.8 | like where he's trying to just overtly so over the top draw attention to trying to get a call |
| 1:02.0 | right that where it's like it's almost distracting like for his game he's too talented he doesn't |
| 1:07.8 | need that stuff um i think and i saw it two years ago where it's like |
| 1:12.8 | to me was just reached a level where like I would like watch film one and be like, what is he |
| 1:17.6 | doing? Like why is he so wrapped up in this situation with this, with this player? And it's a win for |
| 1:24.2 | the other team because he's so good if he just plays basketball and beat you with his fundamentals. And that's most of the time. Now, he was better last year, I felt like, but he's back at it a little bit more here lately. And I think that's why I'd starting to draw some attention. That's a little bit more concerning than anything. I'm not as concerned about his game. And I'm not, don't think that like his incessant, like, you know, talking to the officials is anywhere on the level of some other guys around this league that, for me, it's a major problem. I don't, I don't consider it that with Yokin. So I'm not as worried right now about him or the state of the team. I think it's maybe some people are a little bit in Denver. |
| 2:01.2 | I just believe when you look at their team and you look at them whole and healthy and everybody |
| 2:08.5 | slotted in to their role and their impact to me, which they haven't really had, that to me is |
