Denver Nuggets star Nikola Jokic is barely keeping an eye on the Eastern Conference NBA Playoff finals, where the Boston Celtics and the Miami Heat are locked at 3-3 heading into a deciding Game Seven on Tuesday.
Jokic and the Nuggets reached the NBA finals rather easily, beating the Los Angeles Lakers 4-0. And the 28-year-old two-time NBA MVP averaged 27.75 points across the four games, reinforcing in many minds that he should've won a third MVP award in a row.
In the other conference, Miami have thrown away a 3-0 series lead, with the Celtics forcing the game into a seventh to decide who will meet the Nuggets. And Jokic said he was walking his daughter instead of watching a Heat-Celtics game - but admitted to "lying", saying he watched the first quarter.
