It's also important to keep perspective.
The West right now is the strongest it's ever been with an insane amount of superstars.
We faced LeBron and AD in rnd 1. Steph didn't even make the playoffs. Durant and Booker got swept.
This ain't the Lakers 2000-2002 era where they faced scrub teams and when they faced adversity the NBA literally rigged it in their favour.
Winning championships has rarely been this hard for a team out West.
So the team put in a great effort when you consider the severe limitations of the squad.

Lost second half by 23 points. What a bunch of losers. This team is Jokic and the losers and no other word for it this team is still reigning NBA champions. I'd love to be loser like that... season is over. again, I'm not mad. cant be mad when guys left it all out there. if anyone is to blame for this its Malone for playing these guys 35+ minutes during March, then giving no rest to Jokic. Jokic was dominating glass in first half, but he had 3 guys constantly bumping and hitting him. all credits to Minnesota. btw, you know who had bad offensive game among Wolves? the only guy who played over 40 minutes. wonder why...

Biggest blown lead ever in a game 7. That’s worth a few changes this off season.

Not a singe player on this roster deserved to win this seres. Nuggets didn't have it this year. Everyone had ugly stretches at some point. Nuggets losing that lead is brutal. Zero excuses really. Just a complete meltdown. Need to get back to being that hungry town they were last year. Way to much overconfidence this season and ultimately did them in. They lost their easier chance to get to WCF by blowing a similar lead to Spurs. Wouldn’t have had to face Minny till then.

We just ran out of gas. Not just from the title last year but from pushing for the 1 seed and then specifically in this game the idiotic rotations. But even if we survived today we didn’t have enough to win it all. I can’t wait for October to do it all again!

just get this team a bench. and a 2for1 for MPJ if the opportunity arises.
if the Raptors want to trade Bruce and GTJ for MPJ, you have to strongly consider it. Bruce is Bruce and Gary is shooting 39% from 3 playing off of Scottie Barnes. he'd probably shoot 44% from 3 with the wide open shots generated in our offense.

I am sick of all losers on this team. Fuc*ing seeding destroyed us and then the mental midget. And now this is for all off those that wanted the home court. I hope they learned that the HC is fuc*ing BS playing in the west

Nobody gets a pass when you lose that kinda lead in the second half in a game 7. That's the only bright spot I guess if you can even call it that. Nuggets weren't winning a championship. Entire roster failed at one point in the series. All it takes is a player or two to step during that run by Minny and hit 3-4 buckets and were headed to the WCF. Instead everyone on the floor completely collapsed and Minny had the game from there.

Malone erred to take PWat out of rotation. He brings defensive energy as CB does,and while Holiday did well, Watson length could have made a difference in series. At least he could have given a couple different starters some rest.

This team ran out of gas this season and it was evident in the Spurs loss.
Priority should've been rest, but woulda coulda shoulda.
Now go get a legit 3rd big man.

Zach Edey for our pick, and then trade for or sign a 6MOY type. Those two things we lacked. RJ needed to be upgraded, but we could have that with CG. Interesting postseason.
