Just imagine Jokic having a legit side kick… Like Luka has Kyrie. The year they won the chip, Murray was playing like a all star type of player, the 2 man game with Jokic was literally unstoppable. You’re not going to win when you’re second guy is playing like Thanasis.
No hungry no desire only playing for a day work no heart though season hope they can find a way to enjoy playing together but this start of season they don’t have it
I will take CB getting his over the starters any day Lolol
I've been a nuggets fan for about a decade now and the doomerism of the fanbase still makes me laugh. First game of the season for a team that pretty much never starts fast and dline is losing it lol Murray with the bench is terrible, i thought we all knew this.
JAMAL is NOT a PG he is a SG!!
People could hate on me but Murray wasn’t worth that extension ,Gordon wasn’t worth that extension ,mpj wasn’t worth that contract ,,just to look at the first game I can tell we need to trade one of the maybe two ,how the hell chet outscored jokic ???murray couldn’t keep with shai ,mpj airballs for that contract??I can do that too,big contracts for no reason
Nuggs did look like lacking effort or just slow. I thought OKCs defense was pretty good, I think Nuggets need to make some sort of trade for a shooter or some more athletic/dynamic players.
1/2 way through the show and no mention of the job Malone did?? A lot of this is at the foot of the coach. He can’t make shots but they weren’t ready to attack the OKC defense. It seems like every game against them the Nuggets offense looks bad. OKC defense works very hard to poke and knock the ball away. Every game the Nuggets are loose handling the ball. Clean it up Nuggets,
I said once that Calvin Booth Is a genius or an idiot for the moves he made, guess i got the answer. Joker should ask for a trade, after all this moves (lack of them) Nuggets don't deserve him, Murray contract is final nail in the ⚰️. I'm gonna watch Euroleague this season, Denver is done and I'm not interested in watching 3 points contest every night ( Celtics excluded, they play beautifull)
wtf is up with murray?
Murray is still recovering from last year's playoff injury and should never had played in the Olympics. Very selfish decision to play hurt & look pathetic for Canada. The Nuggets knew OKC was the better team and threw in the towel once they got down. For the money, MPJ can not be so fragile with his confidence. And our youngsters need to grow up and become forces…no more excuses!
Would it have been better to have Daron Holmes off the bench? I’m sad he doesn’t get to play this year
Murray’s time of staggering needs to go. It’s time for a change there maybe porter stagger, Russ can find the shooters and that could work
Given how saric played last night, I'd give zeke naji the starting center for the 2nd unit. He's a good but not great defender, but he plays incredibly hard and his effort is contagious, especially on the offensive board. I'd give him a chance and if he can clean up some of the fouling on the defensive side, he would be finally earning his big contract
“Bro what if they look like this every night” killed me, I think their win total just changed. Im prepared for what will happen Saturday.
Isn't it funny that Jamal and MPJ have the same salary as SGA, they're all about 36 mil/year. Jamal's current contract is overpaid but that extension is lunacy.
Hot take, we don’t make the playoffs. Prove me wrong!
JAMAL MURRAY IS BAD. EVERYONE KNOWS HE SUCKS BUT THE DUMB ASS DENVER DIE HARDS. JUST CAUSE HE’S THE LAST PIECE LEFTOVER FROM JOKIC’S ROOKIE SEASON DOESN’T MEAN HE SHOULD BE GETTING PAID A MAX. This is boutta be a wasted year I can’t get hype for such an injury risk who’s the most inconsistent team piece.
Too many bad passes inside to Jokic lead to turnovers. Also bad decision making forcing shots. Less Russ please!
Glass half full… CB and Julian played well
Denver y’all like that whooping okc put on yall MVP 😂. Get use to it okc jst younger faster better
Is Jamal elite anymore? Is Westbrook truly washed? Does Jokic deserve his Mvps?
The harshest takes, that I'm fucking ready for this season.
Doubt us. Please.
