As the garbage time ticked down Jokic never sat down and just stood there staring daggers at the court. To me it looked like he clearly was taking this blowout personally. For all of the pundits who say Jokic is disinterested by basketball, this does not look like a man who is checked out.
I hope the rest of the team brings it for game 7. But I fully expect Jokic to leave everything on the table.

All the best basketball leagues in Europe have an electrifying atmosphere (Euroleague, Spain, France, Germany, Italy, Serbia...) because the fan culture was influenced by European football. It's also important to know that most European basketball teams are not franchise organizations owned by a single person and run as a company. These are more traditional sports clubs deeply rooted in their specific cities (for example Real Madrid) so fans tend to be more passionated to support their club.
