Does not matter if you draft all your players.. Sooner or later that new CBA is going to destroy teams like the Warriors and soon the Nuggets.
They aren’t the “new Warriors”, they’re the Denver Nuggets. They’re crafting their own legacy.
Nuggets the Nuggets
Cj almost laughed when he said: "I wouldn't sleep on the New Orleans Pelicans" 😂😂😂
Jokic Scores the ball so easily. It’s like everyone simply just gets out of his way when he goes to the rim.
I just saw 15 posts on fb and twitter with nuggets fans claiming Joker is better than Jordan. Drugs are bad.
😂😂😂
Come on guys, I'm a Warriors fan and that's pretty ridiculous. Denver has their own identity. Size being the most obvious difference. But Denver is more disciplined, slower but stronger, and the big guy in the middle Jokic is something the Dubs never had, a dominant big man.
The Warriors still have a punchers chance in 2024 season. 🤛 🐴
They look so relaxed when Kendrick Perkins is not with them.
1st Take is your about your video's title. Really??? Wouldn't you be disappointed or even upset with McCollum if he proclaimed the Nuggets the next Dynasty? The Pelicans would I bet! They're good and getting better especially if Zion stays healthy. It'd be dumb if him and premature for anyone else.🤫
The Question is a reach lol
Well I guess we're just gonna have to see what next season is gonna be like 🤷🏽♂️ let's make it very interesting
…attitude wise the Nuggets are unique in championship level sports. In that they shun the spotlight and behave with humility off the court. In the Finals (press conf's) both Murray and Jokic declare the other is the best player and leader of the Nuggets.
Jokuc : "We're just following him (Jamal)"
Its a crazy beautiful thing.🏀⛏😅🃏
The warriors still exist, long as Steph keep playing at a high level everything stilll gone run through them
If Denver establishes a dynasty, they would be more comparable to the Spurs. But they still gotta win the chip this year before starting dynasty talks.
This is 2007 finals repeat. Great coach with unselfish team with no egos, with a goat tier bigman & deadley point guard vs a star & bums. …. history always repeats itself
They had the easiest run to the finals in NBA history 🤣 they're never going back
You can’t call them the new warriors it’s disrespectful to both franchises with totally different styles of play
Thing is… all those teams are older, didn't nuggets minus AG beat a healthy clippers team. Unless bones has that anime villain arc I don't see clippers, maybe pelicans with a healthy zion.. all the other teams are olders and less cohesive. Nuggets play a very familiar warriors pass n go style except you have a 30pt rebounding machine that actually is pass first mentality.
