Oh shit!
Sorry Matt, they're not worse on paper. KCP's numbers were not good, and even in the playoffs aside from one game he was terrible, even vs the Lakers he was terrible. Aside from guarding Curry better than anyone else, he didn't provide enough to matter as much as the bench now having Saric and Westbrook
The nuggets being worse is crazy. They amplified their bench and the core is still together. CB helped win the championship as a rookie and has been stellar on defense since. Guarded Ant edwards better than KCP. I’ll take CB now over KCP. KCP is getting older and his game won’t be the same. CB is young and can improve still. Nuggets will have a better season IMO.
Ryan + Matt = Tenacious D
M+M and R+B. Sweet N Smooth? GoTown? BurnMoore? Root(beer)+Groot/Brute? Fan and Stan? The real ones? Spicy Mayo(Midwest vibes)? Clam and Jam? The Heartbreakers(realists)? Cruisin and Bruisin? The Reality Check? The Stat Pack?
Why u bring Ryan man he’s so annoying, missing Adam 🥲
Biggest overreaction: how poorly the starters play
Potential names for the duo:

Ppl keep saying OKC gave up nothing and got 2 awesome players they got 2 role players and gave up a dude who averaged 17 8&6 a year ago lol. Media bias is so insane.
Old guy take… You can’t overstate what he did for the franchise. People rightly give Melo props for reviving the franchise, but the Nuggets began to rise again after being the league laughing stock of the early 90s BECAUSE of Dikembe – from the minute he arrived, respect for the franchise immediately began to revive. Without him, it’s entirely possible the Nuggets would be in OKC before the end of the decade.
