Great game for Jokic.
Phat court!
Like the court but still like the 1990s courts better!
When I saw the Hornets were up big early on I knew it was over for them.
Hornets had just become the league's punching bag.
Thomas Bryant requested to be traded. His first game for Denver. 2 minutes lol. He not go get nearly as much minutes.
Hornets got out rebounded, and couldn't shoot free throws, and after the first quarter couldn't shoot at all. Jokic is a force that keeps coming at you.
hornets started well and then reality set in. I hope they get Victor W. in the draft and get someone to liven up the franchise. Warriors didn't draft Ball and now they've given up on the Wiseman project.
Man I see the NBA is full of refugee's…all the good white players r not American born….???? Ha! They had to go beg other countries to come play bc Al the Brothers r simply DOMINATING!!! Well…still is… they can go to da moon n try 2get a non-Nubian..won't matter. PROFFS NDA PUDDING!!!! Dig it????
Oh n this is why we wasn't allowed in their sorts Pre-Jackie Robinson. Wannabee's.Gonnabee's…when will they learn. Tah b like Mike..u gotta waaaaaaaaaaays Tah turn!!!!
gordon hayward should've demanded a trade.. he's wasting his prime years on a tanking team..
30-16-10, just another day at the office for Jokic
da joker
Hornets fans be damned 😥
All the ball brothers suck
Micheal Jordan is a total embarrassment to the city of Charlotte, N.C. as an owner, but no fan, or even politician, would dare come out and say it.
Guess since North Carolina is his home turf, no one else will own the Hornets unless that's what he wants, regardless of how terrible an organization they are.
Thomas Bryant requested a trade because of lack of minutes but he has less playing time here in nuggets 😂
Thomas bryant for the garbage time in nuggets team😂
Let's go NAHGGETS!!!!!
some glimpses of lob city DeAndre Jordan, love to see it
for what I only know that jersey number 1 is for Muggsy
I’m a hornets fan, so it pains me to say this….it’s just my opinion as well but I’m curious as to what other fans think. Every hornet player thinks they are better then they really are, even lamelo. Granted he actually has talent to back some of it up.( I hope with his confidence and age he can acquire some defense). I just feel like this squad is full of G league players, 2nd round at best, who think they are all stars and it leads to turnovers and lazy defense.
Nuggets became the underdogs in the west with the kyrie and kd trades I hope the nuggs can win it because I’ve been a fan and we’ve never won but we have a shot
I watched this game live @spectrum Center and was disappointed on how the hornets played but came to see how good the nuggets are. The nuggets have great ball movement 👏
