On Wednesday night, the New York Knicks accomplished a feat that very few NBA teams can do - sweeping Nikola Jokic in a regular season series. In November, the Knicks absolutely destroyed the Nuggets 145-118.

After they made him look average, the best basketball player on the planet declared the Knicks a legit title contender.

Two years after he won an NBA title, Nikola Jokic views the surging New York Knicks as a “top-five candidate” to end their 52-year championship drought.
