Jeff Teague talking about if Larry Bird played in today’s NBA:
“Watching Jokic highlights and y’all thinking how good Jokic is? How good you think Larry Bird would be right now? Because when I watch older people play, they be like he ain’t athletic he ain’t this. But then when I watch Jokic it’s just like he is walking around, he just make it look so simple.
