  1. itsnotyellowfever

    Calvin Booth is a god

    Christian Braun

    Peyton Watson

    Collin Gillespie

    Julian Strawther

    Just hitting it out of the park every time he’s up to bat

  2. One of those classic Hawkins vs Strawther battles we all saw coming

  3. That’s right, Colin Gillespie and Julian Strawther are both great. This team might be even better

  4. Chopperdome

    So many things to unpack tonight:

    a Louisiana sports team starting out hot against a superior opponent, only to collapse in the end. It’s what we do baby.

    Zion out here thinking he’s Jokic. I’d need 2 hands to count how many times that dude had a lane but threw it away instead

    Our backup bigs are not good. Joker posting up on Zeller might be the greatest disparity in talent I’ve seen in person

    Denver’s drum line is all white dudes and I gotta say, that’s the most Denver thing ever

  5. DefiniteSauce12

    Jordan Hawkins and Julian Strawther put on a rookie showcase

  6. At6-8FromSyracuse

    Been impressed with the Nuggets defensively this season, gave up 71 in the first half then locked up in the 2nd. Pretty scary to go with an historically great offense

  7. We are 48-14 all time when MPJ gets 20! Strawther is fucking him. Colin looking like a solid second unit PG. ALL THE NUGGETS ARE GOOD!!

  8. When this team gets on a run it’s so fun to watch. Just extends the lead again so quickly

  9. TypicalAnswers

    Jokic is just on another level. It’s such a joy to watch!

  10. Ilikesporks_

    best player in the world showcasing why he’s the best player in the world

  11. BurntHamSandwich

    That Jordan Hawkins rookie of the year is gonna surprise a lot of people

  12. Potencyyyyy

    Julian Strawther is my dad.

    Forreal what a fun game to watch. Jokic with the classic performance and the young guys were showing out.

  13. BcuzRacecar

    Nuggets just get another impact rookie just like that

  14. BruceBrownMVP

    This is going to be Jokic’s best season yet.

  15. schoolhater12

    Pelicans should join the Clippers and Heat to unionize against Jokic. He pretty much always has a 30 point triple doubles against these teams in particular

  16. KCP should have score that no look under the legs pass so we would have an insane highlight.

  17. emceeflurry

    Nuggets go into the second half down 12 after getting 44 dropped on them in the second quarter. The Nuggets proceed to only let up 45 points the entire second half. ARE WE A THIRD QUARTER TEAM NOW???

  18. KangorKodos

    At one point the Pelicans had made 5 straight 3s, the Nuggets had missed 10 straight 3s, and the Pels were up 20

  19. emceeflurry

    Does anyone have the clip of Jok getting a steal, leading the break, and tossing an oop to MPJ?

  20. shadratchet

    Calvin Booth probably won’t ever win executive of the year but it’s looking like 2 years in a row that he’ll be deserving of it

  21. ManicManicManicManic

    Dude I turned it off the beginning of the third when Nuggets went on that run because I just knew

    Jokic is legit the best player in the world because of how he elevates his teammates. Peyton Manning level awareness of getting the ball in the right spot
