Hypothetical - but if Jokic went up to Booth and said re-sign KCP or trade me, what do you think would happen?

Amen to that. This franchise would still be sitting around without a title if Tim was with Denver. No way Tim would have traded away his buddy in Barton nor would he have signed Bruce. I'll cut Tim and Calvin some slack on MPJ max deal as that was more of KSE Mizzou loving bias coming out with that absurd deal. Calvin hasn't been perfect but Tim would have left hero-ball Barton in place. Baby take to be honest. Tell me why Barton wasnt picked up by Minny? Because it destroys your theory of TC being in love with Barton the basketball player Conspiracy theory lmao This ,plus he was traded to dc near Bart hometown something tc had plan on doing

OG Anunoby and Piaskal Siakam just got massive deals. So if you think Jamal isn't getting one your crazy. Nome of those guys are all stars. It's the tomes we live in. Can't lose him for nothing either. Sign him, but I'd be ready to make any moves during season that don't include Jokic. People here legit argued for BB to take a paycut. But i bet you the same people will argue for Murray to demand a 4 year 209m contract. I don't think he deserves that much, but you aren't getting him for less so he's got us over the barrel. MPJ is the one though with the outrageous contract.

Tim is on record saying trading players he's friends with makes him physically sick and he considers it an immoral act. I heard about being more Catholic than the Pope, but you're more Tim than Tim, Erik.

Porter gotta go too.
Ideally Porter, Zeke, Reggie, Pickett, Tyson, and Jordan are all on a different team to start the season.
It won't happen, but a man can dream.

Maybe Murray will grow up now and get in shape. Doubt it. Hate the extension.

KCP officially opts out. Nuggets working on a max extension with Jamal (4/209) which is expected to be agreed upon without any real complication. Anything above 5/180 for Jamal is a pure stupidity. OG got 5/212 only because Philly would have give him the same if he was available. There is no team that would overpay Jamal because everyone with a few working brain cells knows that he is not worth nearly as much without Jokic as his running mate. I say offer Jamal 5/180 if he refuses, trade him ASAP.

Jamal is not worth a cent over 35 million per year. Giving him 50+ is utter BS.

Maybe Murray will grow up now and get in shape. Doubt it. Hate the extension. My wish on the 1st day of training camp was to see more humble Jamal and less humble MPJ. If they are serious on overpaying him like that look at Jamal getting in the worst possible behaviour on and off the floor for a forseable future. You think he was out of shape last year? If he gets paid like this, Jokic will be #2 option in his mind 100% lol.

Welcome to the NBA, players world Ok, now, if/when he gets paid 50 per year, go find JB and crew to explain how he is worth that money and that D.White/Bogdanovic combination is not better than Jamal alone. Laughable. Same Jamal "defenders" told me just a week ago or so that they would not trade Jamal and MPJ for Markannen,D.White and Bogdanovic because the latter 3 are not worth it lol.

because he has always elevated his game in the playoffs when he had two working legs, and I don't give a s**t if he doesn't show up in December against the Pistons. go trade for Derozan if you want meaningless regular season accolades.
just get the guy a capable backup PG. that's it. that's the key to winning it all.

Name more than 1 elite NBA skill Jamal has that will justify 50+ per year deal? I'll listen.

It’s not my money. Gotta pay what it takes in highly competitive NBA where everyone has money to pay ridiculous sums, and keep Murray from betting on himself by going to free agency in 2025 and getting wooed elsewhere. This contract is necessary if not ideal to prevent that from happening. If Murray had decided to bet on himself and bolted, all hope is lost for another chip, and Jokic likely retires to his horses at the end of his current contract.
As is, all hope may be lost anyway with KCP’s likely departure. It is essential that Watson and Strawther become competent/good shooters and elite/solid defenders, respectively. And yes, to have any shot at a chip, we need upgrades at backup 1 and 5. Short of these developments, if KCP leaves, we won’t enjoy another parade in the Jokic era, IMO.
On the Holmes pick, I’m meh about it. Too much similarity to what Zeke was like coming in. Holmes only had one good shooting year in college. Granted, it’s the most recent year and he added muscle, but he’s a 4 that Malone could tamper with and mishandle by using him at 5, which I contend destroyed Zeke’s confidence. Hopefully, Holmes is more mentally tough than Zeke.
