No shootaround today, so we probably won't know if Joker is playing until Malone's pregame statements

No shootaround today, so we probably won't know if Joker is playing until Malone's pregame statements The fact that Jokic is still listed as questionable and that the game is at home tells me he’s playing. The games he missed, he was listed as OUT by this time of day.

MPJ and Zeke for Jabari Smith and Dylan Brooks? A friend heard this has been proposed. I have no idea who by. Thoughts? Where is this friend getting his/her intel? Trying to see how this makes us better, other than improved depth and defence. Shooting? I assume Brooks at the 3 with Jabari first off the bench?

I need three things tonight -Nugs to win -Jokic to play -Ben Simmons to drop a quadruple double and hit a buzzer beater on Philly, because that would be the most god damn hilarious thing of all time

It’s why I didn’t comment earlier.

Mike is gonna be in trade rumors constantly because he's the only realistic option we have that would bring back anything of value. We're not trading Jokic, we're not trading Gordon, it would be stupid to trade Braun or Watson right now, Jamal's stock is at an all time low, and everyone else on our roster is either extremely unproven, washed, or a certified scrub.
I don't think it's likely we make a major move.

Maybe we should see him be good in playoff game #1 before we decide he “could become the face of the NBA.” He’s a fun guy to watch and I am down with that, but so far he hasn’t been the kind of player (especially the turnovers) the Nuggets have wanted playing heavy minutes alongside Jokic. By the time he’s shining in a playoff run, it will be too late to acquire him. Ball is their franchise player and is in the first year of a 5 year contract which according to spotrac has a 15% trade bonus. The Hornets are not trading him. I was just pointing out that although Ball is talented and fun, he has yet to play winning NBA basketball. He turns the ball over a lot and takes an awful lot of shots considering he hasn’t been a very high percentage shooter so far in his career.

He turns the ball over a lot and takes an awful lot of shots considering he hasn’t been a very high percentage shooter so far in his career. Your turnover critique is off base, though. Yeah, he’s averaged 4.2 so far this season, but his career average is 3.3 in 32 mpg, with most games played between ages 19 and 21. That’s damn good. So what that he’s been in a lousy franchise. With Jokic, theoretically he’d be a WC AllStar, if healthy. And I never said Charlotte would trade him. Actually the opposite, that no way he’d be traded for Murray, straight up. Finally, Ball is on a slightly cheaper contract through 2028/29. About $8 mil less per year than Murray.

Murray/ZL/Braun/AG/Jokic
love it on paper but the Nuggets lose a ton of size and lose their rebounding edge. but I don't trust MPJ in the playoffs at all, unless he's being guarded by Rui. it's a hard choice.

I don't think HOU is a first apron team, I was under impression we could take back less then we send out. I also thought it was just MPJ for Brooks and Smith. So I misread post.

I woukdnt hate that trade,EXCEPT Lavine has been so injury prone. He would definitely give us a secondary creator and is a great shooter.
