Please God let Jokic learn his lesson tonight. Please. 2nd half vs 1st half were night and day.

What. A. Joke. Defensively this is the worst game I’ve seen collectively from this team in a minute. Kcp has been ass

We will be favorites against Minny due to home court advantage. But we really should be underdogs. Wolves are deeper, longer, and more physical. We have the best player, but not sure it matters. Free money It’ll be something like +120 though.

There is no way you can watch this series and buy this team as a contender. Doesn't mean they aren't one but this has been embarrassing outside of like a 10 minute stretch in each game. I just don't understand how you can be watching every single Nugget game and still don't get where the problem is when the team is losing games. This team was always living on Murray's performance. We can win a game or 2 when he sucks but we can't win 4 games when he sucks. He's taking more shots than Jokic so he absolutely needs to deliver. He just sucked in all 4 games

Shot making is terrible but they've been open. Defensively the team has been a f***ing joke. But again...so much of it is effort. This group has played this series like a bunch of arrogant pricks. It literally hasn't been fun rooting for this team in this series.

They scored 108. Offense isn't the problem. The effort is f***ing embarrassing.

Please God let Jokic learn his lesson tonight. Please. 2nd half vs 1st half were night and day. The guy with 33-14-14 isn't the problem. Beating an LBJ and AD led team 8-0 in the playoffs would have been ridiculous. This loss was due 2 games ago. We'll be fine. Can't win them all. Jamal Murray and the 3pt shooting does require huge improvement though.

Correct take. Nuggets also now have to play at minimum 48 extra minutes compared to the TWolves (possibly)
Just a f***ing pathetic night and their approach this entire series has been despicable.

Beating an LBJ and AD led team 8-0 in the playoffs would have been ridiculous. This loss was due 2 games ago. We'll be fine. Can't win them all. Jamal Murray and the 3pt shooting does require huge improvement though. If Jokic plays the way he played in the 2H from the jump the Nuggets probably win this game. The 3 point shooting has sucked for a while now. We're just a bad shooting team.

Murray has been a Godsend in bubble and our championship run. If he isn’t playing out of his mind, we can’t win a chip. No question this is true.

Jamal is not even 3rd best Nugget in this series. Even DLo is outplaying him

Josh told the team that he needs the revenue from game 5. That's the main reason we look like s**t!

Lakers make our defense look bad when they can rebound and run off our misses. We make more and our defense can be set against them.

What, he should score 60 alone for them to win a game? The rest of the guys just be around him to fill the court?! His play in the 2nd half was exactly what the Nuggets need from the jump. His first half he was fine. Fine is not good enough. Jokic has approached this series with B-/C+ effort and it has worked. It didn't work tonight. He needs to pivot now. I have said this for the entire Jokic era. The team goes as Jokic goes. When he comes out aggressive it makes everyones job easier. He is making Jamals job impossible right now (take and make tough shot after tough shot) It's not sustainable. Jokic playing with energy and attacking AD will help every single Nugget out going forward. He's going to have to do the same thing against Gobert (should we beat Lakers)
