I FUCKING LOVE THE GODDAMN DENVER NUGGETS
Jamal is so important to this team, last year we would’ve lost this game after that 3rd quarter
Jamal is like an anime character who gets stronger when he is emotional.
That reverse dunk Jamal had was his “I’m back” moment. Love to see it!
Our defense is bipolar. Potential’s there at least
*Survive the 1st 20 games. Survive the 1st 20 games. Survive the 1st 20 games.*
Seriously though, wins a win. When you can win on the road + cover the spread in a game where you give up 10 OREB and turn the ball over 17 times, 6 more than your opponent, is something you’ll take every time.
5-3 8 games into the season. 3-0 at home, now 2-3 on the road. 8 of your next 12 are also on the road, but then you’ll have 21 of the next 32 games at home. Survive the 1st 20 games, get everyone integrated and stay healthy. Win all 4 games at hone and try to get 5 of the next 8 on the road and the Nuggets will be sitting real pretty with a midseason mostly at home.
But please, just try and block more shots lol. Teams are not afraid to drive into the paint at all. Even if they are contested by the on-ball defender. They just aren’t afraid that anyone is gonna come over from a helpside role to even try and block it. And then players get into rhythm and all of a sudden bad shooters can hit some big shots they normally wouldn’t.
I’m not asking to actually block a ton of shots. Just like, try lol. Make players at least think twice a little bit. Instead of leaving KCP on an island near the rim getting backed down and trying to swipe the ball out of SGAs hands.
This was a v good game for Canadian content.
Murray played with so much heart and confidence. Looks like he’ll be coming back into form sooner than we thought
Really love beating thunder, SAG always plays his best against us. This team is going places NUGGLYFE EXPRESS 🚂
[Called that shit](https://www.reddit.com/r/denvernuggets/comments/ylhodm/game_thread_nuggets_43_thunder_43_nov_3_2022_600/iuz2p3o?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share&context=3). We’ve missed that though, Jamal’s fire is an integral part of the Jokić-Murray 2 man game. Jokić is the brains, but Jamal has always been the heart.
Missed some of the game, what was with CB only playing 7 minutes? Good W!
They really gave Joker the 10th TO on that last possession when he was running the clock, I think they’ve decided it’s out of bounds TO
LOL
I think they should shoot way more threes.
They should have stopped the game and honored Jokic. Passing Chamberlain is a great big deal.
IM A BEE BEE. IM A BEEE BEEE IMMA BEEEEE.
We are far from where we want to be defensivly but the worst stint happend as we struggled to score and let them run in transition , there were something like 7/8 live ball turnovers in that 3rd quarter, mix in some bad shot selection with some hubies and you get what we saw ….get the offense in sync and the defense will look better.
Its fascinating to see how many people dont know jokic ball and the way he thinks the game. Stop projecting your stereotypical basketball superstar ideas onto him because he is different( god it feels like we time traveled to before the bubble ). Some people on reddit and twitter really think they know basketball better than a 2 time MVP, he knows when to score and when not , and if he decides that he should take no shots at all than there is a purpose behind that too, even if he thinks its worth loosing a game because he wants to teach his teammates where to be and throws passes out of bounds etc….its jokić, a one of a kind basketball mind. Those kind of conversations should be a thing of the past , he doesnt need to prove that he can score 30 a night because he did it 2 seasons in a row when it was our only way to win a game ….critique is not justified untill we see him play this passive in a playoff game, and that wont happen.
Tonight they each went 3/6 lol
* MPJ is shooting 49.1% from 3 this season on 7.6 attempts per game. He’s shot 50%+ from 3 in 6 of the 7 games he’s played.
* KCP is shooting 52.8% from 3 this season on 5.1 attempts per game. He’s shot 50%+ from 3 in 5 of the 7 games he’s played.
* Bruce Brown is shooting 46.7% from 3 this season on 3.8 attempts per game.
I’ve mentioned I’m from Kentucky on here a couple times so, outside of Jok obviously, Jamal is my fucking dude and it just makes me so happy to see him take over and be dominant again. I was pretty bummed about the lakers L but it was totally worth it if the outcome is Jamal looking deadly af the very next game 🤷♂️
good game. Scary moments but thats nuggets basketball baby. Fuck you annoying ass doomers, we aren’t even 10 games into the season
oh and fuck Kyrie
D clearly needs work but that’s been the story as a nuggets fan for years now BUT
You can finally see the cohesiveness start to build on the offensive side. It was always going to take a few games to get things going and boy it’s starting to look more and more exciting as the season starts to mature more
On the reverse dunk, Jamal jumped off the left leg, which had the knee surgery. Good explosion, getting closer to 100% vertical off one leg.
BRO WTF WHY IS NO ONE REACTING APPROPRIATLEY?
SGA is nice, looking like MIP so far this year
Warriors lost to magic. Gimme hot takes
What did 50 Cent do when he got hungry? 58 😂
[this play right here though](https://streamable.com/xi1l40)🤌🤌🤌
That Jamal dunk on 2 people was so fucking awesome
