Hardly, they gave out max contracts to both Murry and MPJ and neither of them deserve them. So that's where the money for better players is trapped. Then they use Joker "overtime" in regular part so he's too tired in POs... Deja vu.
Jokic really didn't show up today. Only 7 3pts. He needs to score at least 80pts, 30 reb at least, while other players are on the beach, spending their hard earned max contracts. And maybe, just maybe it will be good enough. As it stands, Denver does not need him, he better be send to Dallas.
Jokic should start making some moves to get out of Denver while he's still in his prime this team is draining the shit out of him he's the only CONSISTENT player on the team and Mike Malone should put his resume out there too because they are gonna start blaming him for Calvin Booths and the owners decisions for Dumpster Diving for this team
The same Zack lavine of bulls hays is too sad for jokic he's the one who suffers so much on this matters go jokic ur the one I I love watching in the NBA seasons 🐱😂 I hope all his teammates helps him only ag is also my favorite in nuggets
I feel bad for him at this point. Starting teammates need to step up. There's zero bench production. ZERO. 7/22 & 3/18 FGs to start the season from this "bench." I think you're stuck with Watson, Strawther & Westbrook till they figure it out. Don't sub anyone else in. Keep it 8 man rotation till Murray, MPJ & Gordon feel like showing up for more than 1 game. But if you're happy with the 1 ring then forget anything I said. Murray & MPJ survived together with their spotty shooting because a random bench player pulled through (Brown, Braun, Reggie). Not so lucky this year..
I don't know how the bench justify this at all. Management also but players in first place. Like, dude you are pro playing in NBA. Fucking score or gtfo. Changing team is not gonna change anything.
What is unbelievable here is that MPJ spent five months shooting the ball in the offseason, and he still can't make a shot. I know it's too early to talk, but you guys should be embarrassed with the way you play the game. Where is Vlatko in the rotation? He can land a 3 pointer, and he's not a that bad shooter. That is the worst bench you have had in the league for the last couple of years, that's what happens when you give a max contract to players that should get 10m per year.
41 pts by one guy but the Nuggets still lose! This only means coach Malone has a lot of work to do and a lot of things to explain to Jokic´s team mates.
MPJ who is the shooter on the team along with Jamal posted a 30 FG% and a 0 3P%. The bench was atrocious Westbrook 0 FG% 0 3P%, Strawther was the only player off the bench to put up any numbers. Everyone else was dogshit.
