Jokic was poor to close that one out. No doubt. The 3ball won that for Minnesotra. NAW 3 NAW 3 Ant 3 In the space of a minute. Hard to defend that. They sure can get hot from deep. They started by chasing them off the line. The second NAW three was Christian getting caught on a pin down. He needed to be attached to NAW and fell asleep. That was the one we couldn’t have |

Lost our heads after the Braun dunk. Pathetic. Have you guys not watched the Nuggets before? They were basically winging it in crunch time because they have no spacing and don't have Murray/Jokic to play off. Extremely predictable they'd be limited offensively in crunch time. With only MPJ to worry about on the perimeter, defenders were blitzing a lot making Jokic change the movement or pickup the dribble. They even got some steals. |

I think we get beat with Murray out there too. We’re probably roasting Jamal right now after the exact same outcome.

CB with 14/7. 5th option is averaging 14 PPG. For a guy with no offensive skill that's pretty darn good.
Shame that it doesn't matter as this team has 6 no doubt confirmed NBA players. Genuinely hilarious. I still cannot believe that Booth article from earlier. I feel like I'm being pranked and you guys aren't telling me.

You really saw the lack of shooting kill them down the stretch. Just makes them very easy to defend. Just gunna get worse. Gordon/Jokic aren't going to sustain how they've shot to start the season.
Nuggets might be in trouble. Watson/Westbrook/Saric look like they aren't going to cut it. I've really liked Strawther to start the season and can see him getting better as the year goes on. Think Malone can put him in a better position to succeed. That being said I think you can make a pretty good case that he's not ready to be the 6th/7th man on a contender and right now he's by far our best bench player. Forget Pickett and all the other trash the Nuggets don't have 6-9 figured out. Nuggets are pretty limited with the cap/lack of assets but a move is needed. Can't go all year with this roster.

Strawther looks just good enough to shine against preseason competition. That might be his ceiling. He doesn’t look anything special against decent poa defenders. |

Westbrook 1-8, 5 assists, 4 turnovers.
And sadly that was a decent Russ game.
But…attitude. Amirite?

The Booth blame game epidemic here is getting embarrassing, though. He was cap constrained. Only thing I think he should have done is resign Holiday after cutting Pickett. It might still happen. Holiday hasn’t signed anywhere else to my knowledge, and I bet he’s holding out in hopes he gets a phone call. Yeah, Saric is a bust free agent signing. Should have just kept RJ as third PG, or sign an NBA guys like Dougie McBuckets. But Booth isn’t nearly as incompetent as being talked about here. He’s the worst of our GMs since before Masai, though. The notion that Booth is trying to get Malone fired is some serious hate. Only Jokic could get him canned, and he loves Malone. |

Cap constrained is one thing. The Nuggets also had limited rosters spots because of the moves he made. He also killed any flexibility they had by trading all of their draft picks away. Tons of teams are cap constrained. They still find a way to fill a roster with 8-9 NBA caliber guys. The Nuggets have 6, maybe 7 if Strawther pans out. That's absurd. Just completely absurd.

Recency bias is making you lose IQ points. Watson will round into form as an NBA role player. Cancar is NBA caliber. He has to play. Even Zeke could be fringe rotation guy if Malone ever decides to use him correctly. Not nearly as dire as reactionary fans project. |

If Jokic was wired like Giannis you would be the frontliner on fire Calvin parade because you would be afraid of Jokic asking out. Jokic spoiled not just entire organisation but it seems the city of Denver and maybe even the state of Colorado... |

The only spoiled people are fans here and elsewhere who want Booth fired when there is zero chance of it, five games into the season. Y’all sound like children who can’t get their Christmas presents today. |

Second apron is only bad if you stay in it for more than 2 consecutive seasons. Otherwise is just the tax which Kronkes don't want to pay

Strawther looks just good enough to shine against preseason competition. That might be his ceiling. He doesn’t look anything special against decent poa defenders. We'll see but if he was the 8th man right now I'd feel alot better. I think the potential is there and you see the flashes but it's also clear he's still a little raw. If you had 1-2 other players on the bench who were better I think you'd be excited about what he could look like by the end of the year. As of right now he's been our best bench player by far and that's pretty concerning. I do think right now no player has it easy. Everything's just a mess. No chemistry. Just relying on individual talent like Jokic carrying or AG going off tonight. Alot of players being put in a position where they clearly aren't comfortable. |

OKCs bench scored 52pts tonight.
That's what the Nuggets bench scores in a month.
Fire Booth now.

Y’all sound like children who can’t get their Christmas presents today. You don't deal well with people who think differently than you do, do you? I deal just fine. You returned to this message board with one and only one agenda, the case for which you repeat ad nauseum. Perhaps you should stop banging people over the head with it after the tenth post that made the same, tired plea for Booth’s firing? Don’t understand crazed fans who get so obsessed over one issue they see. You gotta find more to talk about, Nuggets-related. |
