I think Simmons is one of the best fits next to Jokic defensively and offensively it gives you two great playmakers. The most important thing about Simmons' game though is he can get into the paint.

You’d need solid shooters at every other position. Mpj can shoot but who’s your starting backcourt now?

You can just start Barton-Harris because neither of them are going to be the primary or secondary ball handlers. What gets tricky is the Grant situation. In an ideal world he'd accept a 6th man role.

stay patient and wait for the Bradley Beal sweepstakes to start. That ones the dream my friend. There's no chance Tim is sending Jamal to basketball purgatory though. Tim doesn't care about winning. He cares about friendship and relationships.

I don't mind a roster blowup outside Jokic and MPJ, the current group isn't good enough.
We look ass against injured lower seeds. Time to change something.

I rarely call for coaches to be fired, but you get blown out of a series by Utah, it's time to find a new coach.

Jokic is still young but...he's turning 26 next year. Either find the right coach for him or get the right team around him. You waste another 2-3 years that championship window starts to get tighter and tighter every year.

I think if this was a regular playoff format and the Nuggets lost games like this at Pepsi Center...yeah I think Malone would probably be gone.

This catastrophe isn't all Malone's fault. Far from it, but he doesn't get a pass just because the Nuggets are outmanned and it's a wierd situation. The head coach has a responsibility to have the team ready to play and get the most out of the cards he's dealt.

no way you fire a coach (unless yur the stupid pelicans) under all the s**t going on..,, this team was just hit hard before the start of the bubble restart. next season its on him and the players.

I probably wouldn't fire him either tbh, but I think you guys are too soft on him. He's gotta get more out of the team than what we've seen the last two games.

My problem with Malone isn't even the effort. Like they're professional athletes getting paid to do a job at the highest level. You shouldn't need a coach to motivate you to play hard in a playoff game. My problem with Malone is he's clearly been exposed. He has no answers. We saw the Jazz adjust in Game 2 and stop Murray. We did nothing different today. And they stopped Murray again and prevented the 2 man game from getting going. If your Plan A and Plan B aren't working...you need to at least have a Plan C. Malone doesn't. That's the problem.
