I know it's pre-season – and I don't care about results – and I want to be positive. I'm watching to FIND good signs, something encouraging.
Nuggets roster is not helping me at all.
Strawther is the only one worth a pick. A late pick. The rest – OMG – just terrible.
Pickett!? Who scouted that guy!? Who decided to draft him!?!? Pickett is obviously not even a g-league player – a pickup game hustler at best. WHO WASTED A PICK ON HIM!? Should I talk about his terrible handle, zero vision, slow fat-ass, and zero PG skills… and the ZERO rest!? Should I!? !? HOW did he end up on the roster!? !? HOW!?
PWat… IDK – I see ZERO talent for the game in him. ZERO. NO GAME. Yep, he can maybe jump, he's maybe "long" and can defend 2nd string sub-talent… "Athletic" sure… BUT – he's not a basketball player. Not at all.
Hunter Tyson… I was hopeful. I was. I thought – tall, decent wingspan, fast release, mature, slow feet that can become a bit quicker – so "usable". Well… he's not it. He's simply LOST out there. The game is too fast for him (even playing against CHI 3rd string) and he has no clue what to do. Get him an internship somewhere and open up a spot.
Another WASTED pick.
What were we hoping for? To have some players to replace Green and Brown. We'd be ok even with 70%. We were hoping. And Green is a washed out vet that can play 4 minutes and brown is only usable in a well organized setup and not a star on his own. But NO. We got PWat, Pickett, Tyson, and few others whose names I don't know and don't care to learn. Yeah.
What's shaping up is the realization that Nuggets simply DO NOT HAVE 8 players that are worth playing in the NBA. Nuggets have 7.5 players.
I hope Nuggets do something mid-season – since with this roster they have zero chance to go deep in the POs.
So discouraging.
With this "roster" I can only expect that Jokic/Murray… 1st string will play 36+ mins and all games – just to make it to POs.

I saw a comment criticizing the loss already. Smh. This is a preseason game mainly used for training bench units and figuring out the rotation. Obviously, you want the young guys to play better but you can't expect everything to go their ways. That's what the preseason AND regular season are for. It's about building good habits. To see if they can get better. And this game is not just on the bench too. Everyone on the team including the starters could have played better but if you have zero 2nd chance points and got out rebounded by 20, it's hard to win the game. Our 3rd stringers fought hard until the end. And those players are either rookies or NBA players on two-way contracts. Like coach said, some of the guys may not get another opportunity to play again in the regular season. I get that as fans we want to find encouraging signs in EVERY SINGLE game, but people are reading too much into this loss.
how can someone be negative about this game?! dude it’s the preseason and they need to try everything and get comfortable!!! We still have our starting five you morons…And Julian is an insane Pick..uhm don’t forget we have CB !!! yeah still our great CB and J Holiday..I mean look at the stats. It a good game and I love my nuggets!

Nuggets need to make a move mid-season.
