I think this is why I'm fine with it: he clearly cares an incredible amount about improving his own game, and about improving his team.Yeah, he is certainly not apathetic to the actual competition, that would indeed be lame.

Jokic's brothers were pretty celebratory.I think this is why I'm fine with it: he clearly cares an incredible amount about improving his own game, and about improving his team.
He's also Serbian, and they don't really do the wild public displays of emotion thing.
I doubt that very much.He's also Serbian, and they don't really do the wild public displays of emotion thing.
