Nikola Jokic Had The Only Correct Response To Someone From Another Team Slapping You On The Ass

I know people will call Nikola Jokic soft for this, maybe even a little bit of a hot head. I disagree. This is the only correct response to someone from another team slapping you on the ass. That's reserved for your own team. If you're out here getting your ass kicked, about to go down 2-0 in a series and someone from the other team gives that butt a little tap you should resort to throwing hands. 

I feel for Jokic. Dude out here putting up MVP numbers again without Jamal Murray. Basically taking a lottery team to the playoffs only to get the Warriors. Let me be more specific. Only to get the Warriors finally back at full strength and with a Jordan Poole who is figuring out this game more and more. So yeah I'd be pissed if they decided to tap me on the ass if I was losing and dealing with all the bullshit too.

I wouldn't rule out Jokic getting his brothers involved or at the minimum giving a Morris-esque shove at some point in this series. He already got ejected last night. 

The Warriors need to send a guy out just to provoke Jokic in game 3. Get him all riled up, sweep the Nuggets and rest up for the 2nd round.
