Dude turned up for every single game this series. If he keeps this up we’re in the business

Besides jok, MPJ was the best player on the nuggets. I’m so happy for MPJ, I hope he continues this into next series.

The TRUTH about MPJ:
* He is the best shooting forward in the NBA * He is the best rebounding forward in the NBA * He is the most mentally tough player in the NBA * He is KD as a 3rd banana * He is one of the best teammates in the NBA, always sacrificing for the greater good of the team. * He does all of this while wearing the brace they give to stroke victims so they can relearn how to walk. * He has played the same amount of games since high school as most guys in the *2021* draft * **This past offseason was the first in his young career he wasn’t 100% focused on rehabbing his back.** * The injuries aren’t degenerative, his top .1% athleticism can come back * He is a future 5+ time all star and will be of the 3 best nuggets of all time
What we see now is only the beginning

MPJ has developed so well man, if he stays like this in the playoffs the rest of the way we’ll be cookin.

His game has improved so much.
The 3-pointers he used to miss, you could tell they weren’t going in b/c he wasn’t going straight up. This whole series, his shots were so well-balanced; he readies his body & feet in position before he catches the ball.
Also, his playmaking has improved a lot. Last year, he added a pump-fake, drive. This year, he seemed to have added another extra wrinkle, of pump-fake, drive, & dish (usually to AG). Besides that one attempted alley-oop to AG that was a few inches too high / fast, I don’t think he had a glaring bad pass this game.
His defense was already pretty good, even last year. He used his height & length pretty well. You could see that this game as well. Although laterally, he can’t quite keep up with perimeter players, he uses his length to disrupt from behind, or rotate if he has help. None of those ‘who is he even guarding?’ plays from even couple years ago.

With all he and his family are going through, he deserves every bit of it

hes gna be insanely important against the wolves, jokic is jokic but rudy and naz reid will make him work. im really worried about kcp and maybe even jamal potentially getting shut out by mcdaniels ant and NAW so mpj and gordon will be crucial to make up for it

Him and Jokic are our foundation. They are the two most consistent players we have.
MPJ is one of the most underrated players in the league

Shooting is great. But his rebounds… board man gets paid HEHE

I said for this team to be a dynasty, Murray and MPJ need to take a leap like Parker and Manu did in 2005.
MPJ took a big step forward this season. Looks better all around. Even Reggie commented on his player IQ growth when MPJ passed up the 3 in the 4th to take it to the hoop. You can tell he’s been looking to make the right plays, passing more and doing the little things since last playoffs.

Celebrating the greatest of all time in the series!

When I saw MPJ pass up a contested 3 and drive to the rim a tear of joy came to my eye that said keep shooting those pull up 3s in transition!

Amen, MP fucking J is taking that next step. I have been waiting for this. It is nice to see it come to fruition. I use to hate when they would not pass it to him. Now they are looking for him. God Blesss

70% TS with a bunch of last second shot attempts after everyone has taken their turn dribbling the air out of the ball lol
