Steve Kerr showered praise on Nikola Jokic before the Warriors played the Nuggets, calling him the best center he’s ever witnessed, surpassing even Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, whom he played against in the 1988 season.

“It’s unfair to compare eras,” Kerr noted but emphasized that Jokic’s abilities outshine what Kareem could achieve. It’s not merely about skills; it’s about Jokic’s competitive nature and intellect on the court.

Kerr described Jokic as one of the smartest players in history, remarking on how his passing and playmaking make him exceptional. Many experts feel that despite his ten years in the league, Jokic is already establishing his legacy among the top players in history.

The debate surrounding players from different eras is ongoing, but Kerr’s comments resonate with fans who appreciate Jokic’s unique talents.
